Well, it mostly comes down to licensing issues and the big ol' dollar sign. Viz Media lost the licensing rights to continue dubbing, and since then, no other company has picked it up. Classic story of the anime world, sadly.

There was a slowdown in demand for the English dub. Streaming services have been pushing subs more cause it's cheaper and faster to release.

It's all about economics and logistics. The dubbing process is time-consuming and expensive, and companies prioritize new projects over continuing older ones.

Believe it or not, the original Japanese version with subtitles got more popular, leading to lower demand for the dubbed version!
