Thanks. That's reassuring.

The issue with me isn't so much if they disappear but if they become too powerful and start having a say in the creative process where they try to tailor it for Western audiences.

Two points with this. I've only started watching Anime and I am enjoying what I see. I love the attention to character and storyline but I also like the insane creativity that only seems to work in Japan. For for instance, Food Wars. It's a cookery program but they have blown it up out of all proportions where it is evaluated to akin to a gladiator battle. It works but it could never be done by a Western entertainment company.

When Western streaming companies start messing about with the content of Anime then they will kill the golden goose.
