But there are tons of anime adaptations of western properties, batman, Marvel heroes, witchblade, power puff girls, TMNT, just to name a few,
Speed Racer, Aelita, Ghost in the Shell, Death Note, Guyver, Power Rangers (kinda), Dragonball Evolution, Fist of the North Star, Oldboy.

While not numerous, most of those were extremely popular in their original forms.

Also, why it should be treated like a competition? Does relatively high amount of Japanese adaptations of Western stuff, means that West should do more / less adaptation of Japanese stuff or something?
