Since you posted the only girl that matters I feel obligated to respond.
What you describe is something that I believe applies to fiction in general, a playground for an artist's or regular person's ideas and perfectly constructed unrealities to prance about and carry out a scenario for whatever purpose. In anime this is arguably more pronounced than in any other medium. This is naturally due to the fact that anime consists of both audio and visual elements as well as motion, but unlike film or TV shows is completely unrestrained by reality in its portrayal of people and characters in general. I'd argue that this is the pivotal point, as characters in the same or similar art styles show up in mere still images and fan art, video games and visual novels, where they always have the same effect. As imagined and wholly unrealistic ideals that lack the 'depth' and trifles of what we are used to, it is no wonder they are so popular. On the other hand, this also works against them. The sheer impossibility of the ideal they attempt to invoke in some physical form effectively guarantees that they are not allowed to come true. Why should they be? Wouldn't they just ruin it by making it real? One can appreciate the passion of those who are waiting for anime sex bots or what have you, but why do they suppose they'll ever be satisfied with anything less than exactly what they're imagining? That is how it seems to me at least, though I am certainly not yet qualified to be making grand statements. Either way anime girls are not to be taken lightly, so watch your step.
