Without fail, every single one of these "I was banished from the hero's party but akshually I was the doing all the work" makes the hero a psychotic asshole. It's almost praiseworthy in its utter lack of creativity. Do all these authors get together and hand decide who's going to tell the exact same story with the only difference being what particular flavor of extra-super-special overpowered their otherwise identical MC is?

It makes even bog-standard isekai look varied and innovative.

If they weren't psychotic assholes they wouldn't kick the MC out (usually for greed/power or to try to make the party his harem) so if you're reading a Banished story it is extremely likely that's going to be the setup.

If you want a Banished story that's different from that the you can check this out. This MC became useful after he was kicked out though. It has it's own things to complain about but I actually somewhat like it.

I uh, I didn't even actually read this. I scrolled through it in about 3 seconds and I'm fairly certain I didn't miss anything. Still felt compelled to at least click in, though. In the same way how you would break every breakable item in an RPG in search of maybe like 3 coins

"something that shouldn't be hitting me is hitting me!!!!" Kyaaaa! or least that's what i expected to hear next from these fucking cringe goblins. There's nothing more annoying than an overly humble and modest main character with female companions that glaze his meat every second they get. Not to mention, you can already tell that this is one of these 'every female = good, every male = bad' type stories, so not even gonna waste my time going further than chapter 1.

it is the usual but is the hero stupid? unlike other series where the MC mostly do "invisible buff" but in this one, everyone else clearly know about the effect his skill has on the party, even worst is trying to challenge A-rank dungeon without even try to find a replacement healer.
What I was thinking, but then I saw booba and was like yep checks out. Forgot whole party is magic users and let the pp brain take the wheel.

There's no shame whatsoever in the light novel, or manga, industry. When one author seems to come up with an idea that sells, a dozen other authors immediately copy the idea as is. If they also see some success, add another hundred authors creating still new copypasta series based on the exact same idea, with cosmetic variations. So, no, they don't need to meet each other. They just witlessly copy each other's works like there's no tomorrow.
