Hiren Lake Legend Murder Case: File 2 - S1-E5

Hiren Lake Legend Murder Case: File 1 - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: When Kindaichi and the others talk with the mature couple, the president is wearing a purple-ish jacket and a red shirt. At dinner, they make a comment about Miyuki and Eiji Touno being a couple. From behind, the president is wearing his jacket, but from the front he's just wearing the red shirt. (00:09:40)

Hiren Lake Legend Murder Case: File 3 - S1-E6
Plot hole: As it often happens in this sort of murder mystery, there's a switching act at one point, and one of the 'disfigured bodies' is not who it is presumed to be. Good, but the problem is that the presumed victim and the person who really died have radically different skin tones, and it'd be practically impossible for anyone who knows them to mix them up - even moreso for the genius detective Hajime Kindaichi.

Academy's Seven Mysteries Murder Case: File 3 - S1-E3
Plot hole: A corpse has been buried inside the walls of the building for 10 years. It's covered by just a poster, and a poster from a current high schooler. If we assume the first victim was the one who put the poster there, then it means that it was just randomly uncovered by the earthquake from episode 1, which would make the chain of coincidences nothing short than miraculous. She basically one day said "I heard there was a murder here where we all hang out all the time" and the ground by its own accord opened to reveal a skeleton without her doing anything.

Academy's Seven Mysteries Murder Case: File 2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Kenmochi puts his hand on Kindaichi's shoulder, open palm and full grip. A split-second later he's waving at him the police badge with the same hand. (00:02:00)
7th Jan 2022
Academy's Seven Mysteries Murder Case: File 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Sakuragi hints that she knows Makabe's secret, and snubs him completely. He storms out and stumbles upon his ghost writer Tomoyo Takajima. She is wearing just a right glove, but when he backhands her, she is wearing gloves on both hands. (00:12:25)
7th Jan 2022
Academy's Seven Mysteries Murder Case: File 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Sakuragi hands Kindaichi the meeting minutes from 1987, the floppy disk is in a different position in the wider angle, and the book itself is headlined by two kanjis written vertically, instead of horizontally like in close-up. (00:10:35)

7th Jan 2022
Other mistake: The "How to play" instruction demo informs that "The strength of your attack is based on the length of time you you press each button", with a repetition of the word "you."

Soshite, ame wa furiyuku - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: Wendy falls asleep after Van called out an unfamiliar name. Between the two shots when this happens, the hair on her forehead is drawn in completely different positions. (00:08:30)
7th Jan 2022
Soshite, ame wa furiyuku - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: When Wendy takes Van's coat off to wipe him clean and check for wounds, her hair falls entirely in front of both shoulders in some shots, just some front bangs in other shots. (00:07:20)
6th Jan 2022
Continuity mistake: During the musical montage when Neo sees again the birds fly in the same pattern, there's a bit when "Tiffany" gets her order from the counter and exits the coffee shop. Neo is eating from his poke bowl, chopsticks in his left hand. His right hand is flat on the table, but in the next shot we see him through the window, and his right hand is turned 90°. (00:26:25)
6th Jan 2022
Other mistake: Neo and Trinity are pushed by a horde of zombie-like bots inside a "kill-zone." A helicopter fires rockets at them. In the wide angle of the cars blowing up, the second pair of cars explodes without any rocket CGI effect added. It's like they just blow up spontaneously. (02:06:25)

Soshite, ame wa furiyuku - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: When Wendy drags the unconscious Van uphill, the coat covers his shoulders less in close-up and more in the other shots. (00:05:05)
6th Jan 2022
Continuity mistake: When everyone cheers Eldora Five's final blow, some people (the Sheriff, Franco partially hidden behind him) are in a different position between shots. (00:20:35)
6th Jan 2022
Continuity mistake: The four amigos are locked up in a cell; the window to the outside has alternatively 7 or 8 bars during their detention. (00:12:10)
6th Jan 2022
Other mistake: When Franco proposes Yukiko (proposes her to leave that dumpy tavern behind, that is), in the first shot you can see inside through the door all the way to the back wall, meaning that they forgot to put in the bar counter and shelves, which reappear later in the same scene. (00:09:10)
6th Jan 2022
Other mistake: During Yukiko's song the camera pans across the pictures of the old team. The plaque in memory of the deceased member says "Chizuru Steavens", which just does not sound right. And in fact, when it cuts to a close-up, the last name is fixed and the woman is now Chizuru Stevens. (00:07:50)
6th Jan 2022
Continuity mistake: Throughout the episode, the "Pink Amigo" sign changes. Sometimes the word "Restaurant" is on top of the whole word "Pink", other times it begins after the "P", in other shots it's absent.
