I Think I Know Where Kishimoto Got Itachi's Famous Quote...

[TheBlackDevil]

"No matter what you choose to do from here on out...I will always love you."/"I treated you like a child more than any other.."

-Itachi Uchiha​

So I was recently re-watching a movie (called So Close; it's Taiwanese so I doubt many people have seen it) that I watched since I was maybe six years old, and one of the lines that came up was:

"You're not a kid anymore and I forgot. Well whatever it is you've done now, I won't ever blame you for anything."

-Ai Linh​

To me, it sounds a lot like what Itachi said, and not to mention, it was said right after said character died! So I don't know if this is a coincidence or what - but whatever it is, it's a touching line right before the departure of someone precious to you~ Just thought I might share this with you guys

Oh yeah, and here's a link if you would like to see it; the scene with the line is around 5:00 minutes:

Interesting. You never know.

Itachi is more original then that, as is Kishi U_U

 

[Tsuki]

Wow, this is interesting It might be...or not

Wouldn't be the first time Kishi stole was inspired by something.

It doesn't surprise me. There is nothing new under the sun. That being said, Kishi is like William Shakespeare. Many of his ideas are not originally his own, but he enhances and expands on them.

Maybe but im sure that line has been used more than twice, he could have got it from somewhere else or just knew it and decided to use it, its a great quote though.

Well it is anime. Everyone knows how they put tradition over originality.

I don't exactly know if it was famous - I was about six or seven years old at the time, so it's about ten years old at least. However, anyone who's seen the movie had good reviews for it, so I'd say it was popular back in the days.
