It's kinda a cultural thing. Japan's culture is more geared towards the concept of "you can have cool women in the show, but at the end of it all, the hero should settle down with the sweet and demure one who doesn't challenge him and will be happy to stay at home and make bento lunch." Because regardless of everything else in the story, the status quo of propriety must triumph in the end - kinda like how Hitchcock movies had to end with the bad guys not getting away with it.

Western culture, on the other hand, doesn't feel the same urge to resolve the stories this way, and so doesn't understand why the hero is choosing what is often the least interesting and badass female character.
