I also think many aspects of anime production and its intended audience militate against intellectualism. Anime for television is largely intended to entertain rather than challenge; that's what makes Monster so outstanding and so unusual. Shows intended for general audiences or for adults often have a large dose of sentimentality attached to them and are designed to appeal viscerally more than mentally. (Nodame Cantabile and the recent Ristorante Paradiso come to mind immediately.)
