Anime // Manga

anime (probably moreso than manga, but I have no real evidence to back this up) has always been extremely consumer-driven

I dunno if this is exclusive to anime or even TV. Everything in entertainment used to be driven by execs making gambles with ideas. Now that there's a clear picture of what sells, more analytics available and consumers being able to rate stuff themselves there's no need to make gambles. The entire model of creating entertainment has shifted.
