Yes, but there are many more pieces of Japanese created entertainment that is more popular in the West because it has a European aesthetic or is explicitly pandering to a western audience.

Dude, you're underselling Japanese culture if you don't think there's a global interest in people exclusively looking for content that has a Japanese feel to it. If you play video games, you should be aware there's an entire genre called "JRPG" which literally implies Role Playing Games that are made with Japan's taste in mind.

Even the popularity of anime is specifically because Japan took cartoons that were similar to Disney in the beginning, but handcrafted it with a different approach to storytelling and style.

I don't think ancient Egyptians are anything like Sub-Saharan Africans. There is a big difference between cultural inspiration and roleplaying as another race.

How many Human beings do you know that are talking animals? Do you think Mickey Mouse was a real person? In the world of entertainment, there's a choice between realism and stuff that is completely fantasy. Nobody has to be an actual Ancient Egyptian to make movies about them or use their ideas, and I only used that example because it's literally the biggest setpiece that exists on their continent.

It's not unheard of completely different cultures to borrow from somebody else and still be popular. I mentioned Star Wars before, but the actual main characters (Jedi) are again, based on Japanese Samurai. The reference may have flew over most people's heads because they're interested in the lightsaber fights and robots, but it still doesn't change that George Lucas only created them because he was inspired by another culture first.

Bringing a bunch of different specialized occupations together to create a large scaled industry is difficult.

So why do Indie movies exist? I just posted that George Lucas favorite parody was made by a couple of guys with only $8,000. Not every movie project will have multi-million budgets but that's not an excuse to not make them ever. South Africa's problems are not about lack of resources. They even made a movie before and it still did ok (i.e District 9). But brain drain hurts them from potentially making more like this, because all the talented people keep leaving as opposed to staying behind and helping to develop the local industry.

The Jewish problem plays a part because in areas where Blacks are coddled by Whites they have no interest in trying to compete with other races through culture. There identity only exists based on What Jews put into their minds and stupid victim narratives made up by their ancestors. They have no positive identity of themselves other than "When Whitey hurt us" and "When Whitey freed us from slavery". There is no culture beyond that for most Blacks beyond superficial status signaling.

You're thinking too much about Black experiences living in the West. Especially since those things DON'T apply to native Africans who never even got on the boats and left.
