Thing about sci-fi is that it is a rather small group of fans of it. Smaller than most of the others. You can see this even in Western media. New space based shows are not common. Most of them either die in their first season, or (in recent years) are a reboot or spinoff of an existing sci-fi show.
For every Stargate or Babylon 5 you get a half dozen Mercy Point or Space Rangers, or made for TV movies like Star Command.
The same is true for anime. Save that mecha is more popular than western style spaceship only based series and tends to mix with it a lot. Macross and I guess Gundam are examples of that.
