I definitely do see that. In response to the claim that this is done to "appease boys," I actually disagree. A lot of these anime with primarily female casting are Slice of Life.
What I would like to see, however, is great female main characters trending. I'd like to see that become a thing after watching Psycho-Pass, as Akane Tsunemori was absolutely fantastic. I've watched a couple episode of Shin Sekai Yori as well which also has a female main character, and she hasn't been bad thus far. I'd absolutely love to see a trend of well-written female main characters show up.
