It's a recent development. If I go look back at ancient fanart, it's usually pretty poor quality, but it's much more similar to bad japanese art than the current abomination of style is. Mostly I think it's a big game of telephone, where instead of learning from anatomy and then stylizing, a certain kind of style has been copied over and over to the point where people aren't learning from reality anymore, and thus it ends up really inhuman and ugly.
Not to mention it's just low effort and lazy.
