Sure Ghibli has really pretty and colourful worlds, but I credit that to artist Kazuo Oga more than anything.
If its not niche, how come you're only mentioning the most mainstream of series that is on sale? And do you think the series you mentioned outsells other non Japanese animations?

You have taken most good American animation into account, but there lots of Western cartoons with mediocre or even plain awefull animation. I am not saying that anime has overall better art, but you seem to neglict all the horrible animated things that can be seen on the American television.
edit: while we are in the subject of animation : I don't think japanese animation is that bad at all. Especially compared to the things that I have seen from cartoons made in other countries like England, France, Germany, China, Italy
