Game is dead and I wish it wasn't.
Why did this die?

10/10 for this one.
Best way to tell the masses that have been excited for their card game to come back, let a Chinese racist in a comment section have enough power to make an american company decide that "banzai" was a hate-fueled warcry and not a common celebration cheer in Japan, taking away an insanely traditional part of a game, ALL about tradition.
Fucking assholes souring the largest card game event in Gencon history because they didnt like the skin color of the people shouting Banzai.

Boring and tedious to play, shit lore.

The core set was too small for interesting deck building and their release schedule is FUCKED

Is there anymore to this banzai story?
Blake Long
Fact Check: TRUE
99.44% of people in the wider world have never even heard of L5R and 99.44% of the remainder wouldn't touch it with a stick if they had. The rest of the global population is on Veeky Forums discussing this right now.
Proceed.

Just Google it...

Only because you saw the crazy 6X6 and assumed that was normal. That was not normal, it was insanely accelerated. The pace it is at now is normal.

Not really. L5R events used to have a banzai chant (for decades). Now they don't because some Chinese racists and some virtue signalers (Really, they aren't even Japanese, they're just being offended on their behalf without being asked to do so) got it removed. Of course, Banzai is actually a really normal Japanese cultural thing, and Japan generally loves cultural appropriation. They're perfectly happy with non-japanese using their shit, and they use everyone else's shit in return.
