A Shredder/Krang-like relationship in other cartoons?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P70WSce2q5c

I always thought in this episode of Hercules, Hades and Jafar reminded me of Shredder and Krang. I think they were inspired. You have Jafar, who's really the main enforcer and does combat personally and is obsessed with revenge, like Shredder and you have Hades, who comes up with plans, usually stays away from combat and focuses more on priorities and not so much on revenge like Krang. Both Hades and Jafar occasionally compliment each other but also throw insults at each other like Krang and Shredder.

Then there's Pain and Panic who of course remind me of Bebop and Rocksteady. I was just wondering if anyone noticed this.

I don't remember much about the Hercules cartoon, so I can't comment on Hades and Jafar. However, I thought the partnership between Valmont and Shendu in season one of Jackie Chan Adventures reminded me of Shredder and Krang's relationship.

Jafar was in only one episode but he should have been a regular character because he and Hades have great Shredder-Krang like chemistry and it's easily one of the best episodes of the series. Pain and Panic are the clumsy idiots of the show like Bebop and Rocksteady so I figured the writers were inspired by the TMNT cartoon.

I haven't seen too much of Jackie Chan Adventures cartoons but I can check out those episodes. Seeing Shredder/Krang-like relationships always make me laugh.

I haven't watched Jackie Chan Adventures in years, but I think there were a lot of funny moments between Valmont and Shendu in season two as well. I thought Bullies was one of the best episodes of the series and it was the first episode that I saw. There were some entertaining dialogue between them.

I'm not a fan of Sonic SatAM anymore, but I thought the dialogue between Robotnik and Snively in season two was funny to watch. Season two is worth watching just for their interactions.

I know that. I meant the actual clips in the episode where Hades and Jafar were acting like Shredder and Krang.
