Okay anime/manga has so many repetitive patterns I sometimes get so tired of it because its like the same thing over and over and over again.
Okay i'm just gonna list some examples:
Pokémon: Almost same story in every city go to a new town challenge, has a new girl friend , then travel to new town.
Goku nice guy with orange suit and sometimes blond hair (btw I know kishi was inspired by the dbz series but still)
vegeta tough attitude lots of pride in his race, powerful, conceited, black hair, wears darker colors, blue,black,etc...
then Naruto comes along
Naruto nice guy, orange suit, blond hair,
Sasuke tough attitude, lots of pride in his clan, powerful, conceited, black hair, wears darker colors also

Not to mention the Naruto story line
Jiraiya goofy, mess up, clumsy, strong=Naruto
Orochimaru, strong, tough attitude, loner, turned evil=Sasuke
Tsunade loudmouth, tough, physically strong, Med-nin=Sakura

Same thing goes for the Kakashi,Obito,Rin team=Team 7

Naruto and Konohamaru are also way to similar: Both have spiky hair, lots of chakra(obviously kono doesn't have kurama but still its been mention he has a larger charka storage that normal) ability to use rasengan, both perverts

And I do get the fact that its like a teacher-student learning thing where the student picks up the skills of the teacher but still their personality and story-line are too similar its cliché.

And for people who wanna bash this post:

that's for character similarities example: Guy's perfect fit was Lee out of his 3 students.. Kakashi told naruto he was gonna train Sasuke for the Chunin exams because he was just like him..

basically its like having the same blood type.. and all that stuff is for character parallels .
So you could discover some stuff in the story without waiting for kishi to complete it first.

when was it said konohamaru had huge chakra

repetition isnt that bad and in naruto its just in characters just so they can relate to one another in pokemon i agree the anime repeats the same thing every-time and ash sucks in every region he should be a pro by now yet he goes back to square one

that's just the way it is.. it just depends on how well of a job the storyteller does.
