Sorry to burst your bubble, but the international market is still very much an afterthought for Japanese studios. As long as Japanese viewers still watch those shows and buy the merch, you boycotting them will do absolutely nothing.
A lot of people like it in part because it contains said content, but pretend they don’t. Plausible deniability, they have a valid excuse for watching it because the plot is good.
Hell, plenty of anime is targeted at teenagers, so you could perhaps ignore the ‘fan service’ featuring post-pubescent children, point out their tits are bigger than their head, and file it under cultural differences. But a lot of anime sexualises clearly very young characters, with gratuitous panty shots and the like, often not even bothering to make flimsy excuses like “she’s a 1000 year old demon” or “she’s an alien”.
It’s depraved.
If it makes you feel any better, Japanese ‘hentai’ is a dying art, because they pay the artists too little and because it’s niche and frowned upon in Japan.
