Out of the Past (1) - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: The three tear marks in Wolverine's uniform from when Lady Deathstrike slashes him change position several times. When she first slashes him, the tear marks appear on his chest. Other shots show the tears to be closer to his abdomen. (00:13:50 - 00:16:00)

Out of the Past (1) - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: When Wolverine regains consciousness, he runs away and turns around, and there is a tunnel system directly behind him, and the alien craft on his right, almost within arm's reach. A few shots later, the alien craft has disappeared. When the shot changes again, the alien craft has reappeared. (00:17:45)

Out of the Past (1) - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: Wolverine first enters the sewers by ripping away a fence in the subway. When Jubilee and Gambit follow him, the fence is still intact. When they get closer it is torn again. Odd, really, because on the whole this show has few continuity errors, like self-mending clothes in other cartoons.

Out of the Past (2) - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When they first run away from the Spirit Drinker, Wolverine is kneeling down and cradling the unconscious Jubilee, with Gambit behind Wolverine, and Lady Deathstrike on Wolverine's left. When the shot changes, you can tell by the brown boots that Lady Deathstrike is now standing behind Wolverine instead of Gambit. (00:04:50)

A Rogue's Tale - S2-E9

Plot hole: In the season one episode The Cure, when Pyro and Avalanche are in the bar on Muir Island waiting for Mystique to arrive, Avalanche says "This friend of yours better show up soon or I'm going back to jail, just for something to do!" Rogue then comes in and Pyro suggests to Avalanche that Rogue could be Mystique, to which Avalanche responds "What do you mean it could be? Don't you know what she looks like?", leading Pyro to tell Avalanche that Mystique is a shape-shifter. This dialogue implies that Avalanche has no idea who Mystique is, which is further substantiated when Pyro and Avalanche kidnap Mystique later in the episode while she is in the guise of Dr. Adler, and Avalanche didn't recognize Mystique when she revealed her true form. However in this episode it is shown that Pyro and Avalanche were both previously members of Mystique's Brotherhood of Mutants, so Avalanche should already know who Mystique is without Pyro having to tell him. Rogue was also a member of that group yet neither Pyro nor Avalanche recognize her.

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.
