This isn't entirely true. There used to be this thing called 'Gatekeeping'. Gatekeeping kept much more niche hobbies clean for decades.
Look at D&D, that's been around since the 70's, and it took until the mid-late 00's to get completely ruined by normalfags.

I'm sure I'll have some people who would be normally filtered by gatekeeping telling me that gatekeeping is worse than Hitler, but it keeps hobbies pure. It ensures that if someone wants to penetrate the market, they go make their own thing so they can fuck that up instead of shitting on the core of the hobby.

The difference between D&D is that it has so many DIY elements and stuff that only the real hardcore groups that treat the rules and prewritten race and etc. lore as gospel would ever really stick to the bullshit. When you're the DM organizing with a group, you can establish whatever parameters. Don't like that straahd's gay in the newest module? Well you don't have to follow with that. Don't like dungeons with wheelchair accessibility? Those are a thing of the past.
Vtubing and anime, while it still relatively has its own devices, the localization can bastardize it to oblivion.

You can have a massive audience and retain the "soul" of the original source material. Frankly I think the problem is a lot simpler, the moment something becomes very profitable, you suddenly have investor vultures circling demanding more profits. So the natural flow of things is to excise any provocative or "distasteful" imagery and themes, because if even one person is put off by them, that's a potential sale that is lost, utterly unacceptable. Marvel movies will never do anything particularly transgressive or outside the box not because no one has any cool ideas, but because it's a risk investors are not willing to take. It's just art getting smothered by profit yet again.

the japanese government is actively funding efforts to give anime have a bigger presence in american markets(cool japan fund), which results in anime studios consulting with american corporations on navigating the market and cultural differences. and those corporation's employees already gloat on twitter about how they're going to fix anime through it. anime studios themselves haven't made it a big secret that the domestic japanese market for anime has expanded just about as much as it can and are now looking towards the sino and anglo markets for further expansion.

Slash and burn approach to media. Movies are the same way stuck in a boom->bust cycle where they all try the same provably profitable thing until it's not profitable and it recesses.

Moe was the name of the game during the K-On years, isekai is finally experiencing a recession after years of boom, now we seem to be on a kick of "My Stupid Ass Got Isekai'd but Now I'm a Goldfish?!"

Every netflix anime has been fucking garbage. Tokyo sinks was a globohomo trainwreck. Househusband was a powerpoint presentation. Almost half of their original series have been furry shit. More than half has been full cgi at 20fps. All of the godzilla movies were poorly directed tropefests that couldn't decide what they wanted to be. Next they'll be pulling whatever semi-coherent mess they can pull out of the nearest chinese garbage can and calling it anime. And don't forget the harm they do to the ecosystem at large through adjacent efforts; The culture-bent live action deathnote was one of the most obvious and most awful pandering efforts in history.
If netflix is touching vtubers, it's a huge clue that things are going to get worse fast. If you think there's a high volume low quality problem now, remember that feeling and reassess it in a year. For every Aggretsuko there will be half a dozen beaststars, ajins, aicos, and sword gais.

I really see this kind of thing struggling to ever take off. A key part of vtubers being successful is the same as with regular youtubers or streamers, at least presenting the facade of authenticity. Being a shill for a company worth billions from day 1 kind of runs entirely contrary to establishing that authenticity.

When you ask yourself what makes hundreds of thousands tune into big holo and niji events, or even just regular twitch streamers, it isn't anything to do with being a large company or aggressively spending money, its all about the personalities and the audiences connection to those personalities.

You ever feed a stray cat, anon? He's mostly harmless. Comes around to eat and you steadily warm up to one another. A few days or weeks go by and then one day you go to fill the bowl and there's a new cat, or some kittens. More mouths to feed but they're pretty benign. So you do the needful. Eventually more and more start showing up and now there's so much food that racoons have started coming in the night to steal food. Suddenly your back yard is a mess and you're woken up at all hours because the cats and/or racoons are shitting up the neighborhood fighting or fucking. Your budget is wrecked and your property values keep falling. Catnip is being dealt behind the garage and some of the cats have started acting like dogs and demanding dog toys.
You could have called animal control. You could have not fed the cat in the first place. You could have prevented this.

crunchy roll is owned by warner media, warner media needs money so it's selling some of it's subsidiaries and assets in order to get liquid cash.
sony (owner of funimation) put out an offer for crunchyroll, this is currently pending because of monopoly laws.
if the sale goes through, crunchy roll will merge with funimation and all redundant staff and assets will be sold (this is standard for every merge)
if the sale doesn't go through, warner media will probably let go o all employees and then sell all the assets.
in other words, crunchyroll got no future.

That all depends on the Japanese. Though if you're an EOP you're already fucked given how bad dubs and subs have been the past few years now. The big question is if the western fuckery will affect things at the core (as in, changing shit like the original Japanese script) or if the anime studios will remain steadfast in at least preserving shit on their end. The outcome will be different from studio to studio but honestly I dont see most of them giving in and letting Americans taint things for their domestic audience. Another thing to note is we dont actually know how much influence these faggots on "production committee's" even have, but given some of the shit thats come out and will be coming out it doesn't seem like all that much (unless of course were talking localization because thats were most of any pull that have actually is).

I wouldn't worry anon. They're just arrogant and think its impossible for them to fail, because they're used to everyone else in media having the same opinions and being untouchable for it. Japan just wants money and doesn't quite know what it's getting into, so the woke will at least be slowed down by the number of Japs in positions of power who take their obsession with identity politics as the retardation it is.

Also, anime is still a mostly niche market, and the type of customers it draws fucking hates woke "culture" with a passion. The good news is the leftist infected shows will fail, but it might result in companies going bust and causing a crash in the industry.
