>>Sanderson writes anime in prose
That's not really all that surprising. Most fantasy anime that doesn't take place in high school is inspired by JRPGs like Dragon Quest, which in turn were inspired by Computer RPGs like Ultima and Wizardry. Those CRPGs were inspired by the original D&D tabletop games, which were inspired by the old Sword & Sorcery stories like Conan The Barbarian.

Now, Robert Jordan got his start writing new Conan stories, and Jordan was one of Brandon Sanderson's primary influences. So it's not that much of fantasy today is anime in prose. It's more that Fantasy fiction from the west has had a pretty big influence on some subgenres of fantasy anime.
