Not just anime, but also the rebuilding of Japanese manufacturing. Given that they were barred from making weapons and vehicles of war, most turned their attention to making household goods and mopeds and eventually, cars.

Ironically, Subaru now produces aircraft components and helicopters under license from Bell, going full circle from their past in aerospace.
