>it seems that manga is as creative as ever while anime has also fallen off the cliff

Manga continues to be good because there's a lot of young people and upstarts making it. Anime on the other hand is created by giant studios and has fallen into the typical big corporation spreadsheet trap. They try to appeal to people by hyper-analyzing the various audience metrics. That's a terrible idea when the actual way to draw a large audience invested in the work is to have interesting new stories and not a million variants of the same idea.
