Yeah the thing is if OP had said "to some extent, some of these characters were very similar" then people would be like sure that's why tropes and stereotypes exist. When they generalize that to every single AU, it sounds like an RP/writing problem.

And if OP can't recognize that's mediocre RP, their judgment may not be reliable here.

Exactly. Tropes and archetypes are a well-recognized thing that have existed as long as fiction itself has, but characters who fall into the same general trope/archetype are still going to have their own individualities that differentiate them.

If OP can't tell the difference between characters, that's not an AU problem, that's a bad writing/characterization problem, full stop. They may all be Shounen Heroes, for example, but Ichigo should not be acting like Luffy, who should not be acting like Deku.
