Continuity mistake: Gambit and Jubilee are shown to be grouping together what appears to be several pieces of malleable rebar.

Continuity mistake: When Gambit places Bella Donna's ring on the ground, she is nowhere around it. When the shot changes, the ring is suddenly right next to her.

Continuity mistake: In the first establishing shot of the Assassins Guild's mansion, there is a stairway leading up to the front door. In the establishing shot of the mansion in the scene where Gambit is in Bella Donna's bedroom, the stairway is missing, and consequently the mansion's porch area isn't as high off the ground.

Continuity mistake: When the chosen one for the Thieves Guild tries to present their tithe to the External, he is shown walking right up to the tree stump where he was to have placed the tithe. When the shot changes, he is still walking forward, and therefore should've bumped into the stump. He is saying a line of dialogue as he is walking forward, so it can't be considered an action shown from a different angle. (00:06:15)
Continuity mistake: When the chosen one for the Thieves Guild is called forward to present their tithe, the chosen one for the Assassins Guild can still be seen kneeling before the External. In the next shot when the chosen one for the Thieves is shown arriving on the scene, the chosen one for the Assassins is suddenly back to standing among the other members of his guild. In the next shot, the chosen one for the Assassins is back to kneeling before the External. (00:06:00)
Continuity mistake: During Gambit's flashback, the chosen one for the Assassin's Guild is shown to be placing their tithe box on the stump of a tree roughly halfway between the center ring and the outer edge. When the shot changes, the tithe box has suddenly moved to the center of the stump, and the tithe box itself is suddenly wider and shorter and has rotated 90°. (00:05:00)
Answer: It appears a number of factors led to its demise. It was originally intended to air for 65 episodes, but its popularity extended that. However, there were continual production quality problems, issues regarding whether the content was suitable enough for children, as well as financial considerations that finally led to it being ended.
