Villains attack one at a time, cannot shoot straight, or become incompetent in the face of opposition by the protagonists. Roger Ebert called this the "Principle of Evil Marksmanship".

Similarly, the "You can only save one of us and I won't let you try to save me. I'm letting go." scenario.

You are already dead/Omae wa mou shindeiru

Is this really a cliche?

But on the topic of anime:

-Characters talk for eons in an extremely time sensitive situation but everyone goes along with it including villains so it's okay

-Character who demonstrates exceptional feats earlier is inept/doesnt act so that they don't steal the show

-Characters watching something profound/important for a character's development spell out what's happening and what it means rather than letting the audience have a brain
