#overdone plot devices

I've been thinking, and I'm starting to believe that the whole 'mc transfers to a new school' trope is way overdone. It's like, every other anime features this exact same plot device. Doesn't it get old? I mean, can't we come up with something more original? It's not like it's even that realistic, most people don't just transfer schools like that. And don't even get me started on the 'chosen one' thing, it's just so cliché at this point. What are your thoughts on this?
