It's a done deal. My local comic book store's western comics take up precisely one row of shelves at the absolute back end of the upper floor. It's been that way since 2015.
All through the 90's and 00's, it was the entire upper floor, save for the tiny manga section. Now the situation is completely reversed. Japan has utterly crushed western comics. People would rather read shit in black and white, backwards than read western comics. That's how shit western comics have been for the last 10 years.
Compared to the nihilist/materialist garbage being produced in the US, yes.
Cowboy Bebop is a PERFECT example: the original was a masterpiece with a clear-cut ending of self-sacrifice. The new one was cancelled after 4 shows for bringing nihilist bullshit into the story
Swept.

Most manga and anime is pagan garbage, but even THAT's preferrable to modern American anything.

But that's what makes them so great
