Not that I'm disagreeing with you, but if the majority of anime didn't make any profit, anime would rarely ever get made and there wouldn't be 20+ shows every season.
I don't think it's a big of a failure as you're making it out to be imo.

(da)
Anime is mostly a platform for manga and/or merchandise sales. When there's profit, it usually comes from those and not from DVD sales or ads.

Also,the western market usually doesn't really feature into the equation.

Wrong. The western market very much features into the equations now. It didn't used to. But now, getting picked up overseas is one way anime can make money. It's why companies like Aniplex, Bandai, and Pony all have U.S. bases now when in the 1990s anime was done by small companies like Media Blasters, Animeigo, RightStuf, Manga, ADV, and the few that managed to survive - Funi & Viz. So overseas profits are VERY much in the equation.

Co-productions partially funded by Western companies are starting to happen again, too.
