* FranchiseKiller: As noted on the main page, Set 2 is likely what did the franchise in - ironically, the set likely only included ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' cards to cash in on the popularity of said show at the time, but due to the fact that at the time, in terms of well known anime, the power levels of most other titles were dwarfed by ''DBZ'', the cards practically dominated the game[[note]]it might not have been so bad if the ''DBZ'' cards could've only been pulled from booster packs, but much like with Set 0, all the ''DBZ'' cards were available in ''Starter Decks''; even though the universe of ''Tenchi Muyo'' should, in theory, be able to at least compete with the universe of ''DBZ'', even cards from that show were unable to compete with those of ''DBZ'' - you need ''six'' cards to bring Tenchi up to the level of a ''DBZ'' character, and even then, he still won't be completely caught up with them in all areas[[/note]]. Because of this power imbalance, as well as how easy it was to obtain the GameBreaker ''DBZ'' cards, many fans lost interest, and as a result, the game died out.
