Why is Japanese material so special?

Tell me, because I do not know. Their people are not so admirable, and their actual political position in the world is admirable either. I get the acute feeling somehow from seeing how in many websites, that they set aside a section for "anime" like in warez sites, fanfiction sites, and so on. Perhaps that is all fandom stuff, warez included. If that is so, then what is the explanation for all of this popularity of Japanese material? Why not Mexican? Or German? Or Swedish? Is there any part of their production of cartoons that makes it far superior to anything else? I feel that it does. I really hate American cartoons. I do not feel that American cartoons have anything to them. So what is this difference?

Perhaps you may not know the answer as well, and that is fine. But perhaps you may have some idea on the answer, which you could tell.

People, when viewers compare Japanese anime shows with Amercian TV dramas, they only look at the subject from the viewers' point of view but not from the view of people who produce the shows. No one had yet mentioned the most important factor that really affect the directions of the two different cultures: PRODUCTION COST/BUDGET. The different between animes and real life dramas is that real life dramas can never have the freedom of script writing as animes because everything is restricted by cost and budget. Remember one episode of Suzumiya Haruhi that the producers suddenly decided to talk about space war so the animators just simply drew thousand of spaceships they wanted. Not just spaceship, how about giant robot, monster, airplane crush with submarine, huge explosion......etc. Do Amercian scriptwriters really lack imagination and only Japanese anime scriptwriters can think of all those stuffs? I don't think so. The fact is that from the beginning of their career the scriptwriters of real life drama had to learn which kind of script can be actually done by the budget that they can afford. Animes never have such problem therefore don't say there is no realistic reason for people who enjoy watching animes.
