I dont think so a lot of these jrpgs are pretty much like an interatctive Anime

Contrary to popular belief, Anime's don't make very good games. Not to mention the market differences. Manga and Anime as mediums have had more time to proliferate and basically become global, meanwhile video games are still heavily region centric. The very fact that the term JRPG even exists is testament to that.

Also Japanese games tend to rely more on content then on game play, not to say western games aren't guilty of it as well, but that content also has regional appeal.
