I don't think they exist, honestly. EVERY anime, no matter how poorly it looks to be copying another, is STILL a tiny bit different.

Actually that's false. Look at Tenchi Muyo and look at Nisekoi. They couldn't be more different.

Not exactly a carbon copy but the characters from "Inou-Battle wa Nichijou-kei no Naka de" heavily remind me of the characters from "Seitokai no Ichizon".

Seeing more only reinforces the fact that many are carbon copies of each other.
It's natural for a person to deny he's a failure as a human being. That's why he searches for somebody who is more miserable than himself. That's why so much animosity exists on the internet. Those who aren't able to find a more miserable person, turn to the internet and call other people losers, even though they've never met. Just to make themselves feel superior. isn't that pathetic? There's a sense of security that comes from speaking badly of someone else. But that isn't true salvation. — Tatsuhiro Satou

Everything is unoriginal by now and was borrowed from somewhere else, I don't care as long as I'm entertained. Plus if I like the concept I'll probably like the show that uses it again too.

THIS, you can argue how "Naruto copied HxH" or how "Bleach copied YYH"
it's not a complete rip off just borrowing some ideas and making it different in it's own way. there's a difference between influenced and copying.

basicly this. they just enhance what they already find with their won idea. so there is no exactly 100% carbon copy. only a thing that similiar.

The first half of Naruto was a CC of Hunter x Hunter really, and shamelessly so. Albiet with more cliches when it came to resolutions.
