You have funimation or rather Universal Pictures to thank for Anime spiral trend downward. They did a slow play to get inside Japans Anime studios. A now that they have. Everyone can see the changes. Unrestricted unlimited fiction is being boxed in turned back on itself. Looped around in order to control what you might believe is possible. It doesn't take much if you arn't aware whats going on.   We have gained to much freedom and they intend to ground everyone back to the planet. Breaking free from those constraints that have were placed on us at a very young age and constantly reinforced over and over just make sure we don't evolve is something they don't want ripped apart to shreds like it was toilet paper. Because that just how strong Anime is. Take time think about whats written here. Anime upto 2008 is the what they can't do anything about.  todays shows are weaker then before.  English is the weakest of all the laguages in the world. Japanese Chinese and Latin are strongest there the oldest and still in purest form. It's why translations are so mucked up. Think about it for a while then think some more.
