Not making or adapting new content for the franchises is also a factor in the blandness and milking the shows. Sailor V should’ve had an anime adaptation with great effort and care in production for Sailor Moon. A La Mode should have been adapted for Tokyo Mew Mew. Don’t know why the Wedding peach spin-off Wedding Apple still hasn’t had a n anime adaptation announcement with the Mahou shoujo genre being all stale and stagnant right now. At least try to adapt some of these things.
The fact studios feeling Mahou Shoujo genre will need to be directed to female children is another reason why many current studios won't be so interested, since anime for kids tend to have many episodes (a 13 episodes anime wouldn't be directed to kids).
PS: There is also "Mahou Shoujo" anime directed to a male audience, but that tends to focus on deconstruction (and fanservice).
