japan's animation district is garbage with it's rates and how things work out in there. since most animes are just adaptions of popular manga (which is a safe route) animators are paid unfairly and have to work long hours for possibly subpar work like you've seen in dragon ball z super a while back (assuming you remember or seen it)

the animations you're talking about are risky. if this new ip isn't a success, it means money is wasted for an already dying industry.

nobody realizes just how bad it is right now. anime experienced a huge drop off after it's boom in the americas.
