For over a decade they had to constantly battle Toei and their copyright strikes and the constant threat of their channel and all their videos being deplatformed. I want to see the Buu saga as much as the next person, but the stress they were under for a fan project where they couldn't even make money off the videos people came to their channel to see, I understand their decision. Funimation had even hired them to provide voices on the DBZ Kai, but Toei nixed it after the fact.

Just this past month a youtuber that Toei had partnered with to create content, had every single video they have ever made hit with copyright claims from Toei.

Not to be a dick, but that's kinda the risk you take. They were already 10 years invested in the series and finally called it quits. The thing was that they dragged it on for a very long time to try and get people to watch their other (bad) series. It was a fan production that people were trying to make money off. Fan productions making money are never a good idea because the copyright holders will be rightfully pissed that they are violating IP laws. They were trying to profit off of content they did not legally own the rights to. In my opinion, matters were made worse when certain people of their group tried to get professional voice acting gigs off of the back of a fan production.
