There are many "visual tropes" like this. When I am watching anime with friends, we like to call them out. We even made a bingo at one time for re-occuring tropes.

There’s another one of characters holding a sword with a super exaggerated perspective so the tip is close to camera and the character is farther away

That's sunrise stance

some others are

  • gainax stance
  • SHAFT necksnap
  • jojo pose

There is also a big list at tvtropes (not all anime though) https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/StockPoses

I also remember yutapon cubes popping up, too, as a visual trope. I dunno if you could really classify "sakuga", as like, a trope, either, or if that's more of a kind of, stylistic necessity and approach intrinsic to anime, much like the shot, reverse-shot is, but yeah.
