Death in Paradise (2011)

Lost Identity - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: When at the end of the denouement Neil Jenkins and Freddie Hamilton are face to face, the tears that were running all the way down the face of the actor have been wiped clean, leaving just a bit below the eye. (00:45:10)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Lost Identity - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: When Humphrey opens the bag, various items fall on the table including a small trophy cup, which lands perfectly vertical on its base. In the subsequent close-up of the messy table, the cup is lying down, and all the various items (look at the conch) are just scattered around differently than before. (00:45:00)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Lost Identity - S5-E5

Other mistake: Humphrey's flashback when he is on the balcony of the room is about a sentence he never heard, since the second interview was done by Florence and Dwayne.

Death in Paradise (2011)

Lost Identity - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: Ella, when asked, says that she does not know about the money, and leans back with her left hand on the lounger - but she has her arms in her lap in the next shot. (00:32:20)

Die Schwarzen Saints - S1-E5

Other mistake: When Shaun KOs the first Black Knight with her chain, the other two Bronze knights are at distance from the enemies. However, they are quite literally at their feet a moment after - and they got there by crawling, even. (00:20:00)

Die Schwarzen Saints - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: Shiryu puts the medal on Seiya's chest (no idea where he found the string to craft a necklace with that). Pegasus coughs and the medal shifts a little, but not by much. The three remaining knights talk and vow to get the armor back while they leave the moribund lying there. He does not move during that, and yet when they take off the dog tag moved more to the left. (00:16:55)

Die Schwarzen Saints - S1-E5

Other mistake: When Seiya blasts with his special move the helicopter, causes an explosion, but there's no damage on the vehicle nor smoke, fire or any sign of what he has done when we see it spin and eventually crash-land. (00:13:50)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Lost Identity - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: Neil Jenkins starts spilling the beans about being previously acquainted with Robert Daws' character. Right before the flashback when he meets him at the hotel, he is putting the towel around his wife's shoulders, at the edge of the frame. Several seconds later, after finishing the story, his wife is sitting on the lounger and he puts the towel around her shoulders again, this time with better framing. (00:32:30)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Lost Identity - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: Neil Jenkins is sitting while his wife is swimming in the pool. She comes out; notice Jenkins' left arm and his watch; the watch faces towards Dwayne when he asks "So why did you lie to us?", towards his right when he answers. (00:33:15)

Saint Seiya: Awakening

Other mistake: In chapter 10.1, "Relieving Hyoga Crisis", one of the steps requires answering a quiz. Question; "Who guides souls to Acheron?" Possible answers; Bailishouyue, The Hulk, Alladin, Sirens. Right answer? Sirens. Which it's not, and the next line of dialogue in fact says; "Hermes, yes, that's the name."

Death in Paradise (2011)

Lost Identity - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: The white lid of Humphrey's soup changes position between shots; it sticks out from the board during certain close-ups (like when Catherine cautions the police people or Aunt May says "nuts to that"), not so in the wider angle. (00:26:00)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Lost Identity - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: Goodman is at the hospital, tasting the soup famously loathed by his predecessor DI Richard Poole. Florence opens the door with her right, and the case file folder in her left. Cut, and the folder is in her right, rolled. Cut again, and she's holding it straight. (00:25:50)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Lost Identity - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: At the botanical gardens, DS Florence Cassel is showing the photo of the deceased to other visitors. In close-up, she lowers the left hand with the notepad, but she has that hand up in the faraway shot that follows. (00:12:45)

Der Kampf gegen den Drachen - S1-E3

Plot hole: Shiryu states that the Dragon Cloth, which has been 'for eons' under the waterfall (let's just say it's an exaggeration) is harder than diamond and invulnerable to any attack. In the original manga and anime series, Pegasus uses a sudden dodge during a daring grapple to get Shiryu to strike his own shield with the glove of the armor, shattering both ("invincible sword meets invincible shield") and causing him to fight barechested. In this remake, this whole part does not happen, so when Seiya wins the fight with a heart punch like in the other versions, he does it when Shiryu has his heart still covered by the thick breastplate of the armor, making the whole "Shiryu's armor is impervious to any hit and much stronger than any other Cloth" plot point completely moot.

Suggested correction: It is only said that the "Dragon Shield" is unbreakable.

No, says much more than that. "That might be true for other armors, but the Dragon Armor is special. Nothing can get past my shield. It's unbeatable. The day my Cosmo forced the waters of the Lushan to flow upwards, it revealed the Dragon Armor. Battered for eons by the falling water, the Armor had grown harder and more radiant than a diamond. My Armor is the hardest substance known to man. No matter how fast or hard you strike, you've lost, Seiya." He parried the blow with the shield and so that deserves a special mention, but they keep mentioning the armor as having intrinsic properties, and he is wearing the armor when he is struck by Seiya, which guards his heart. In the original anime and the manga he was armorless after Seiya wrecked it, in here it's intact. It makes no sense, which is why I categorize it as a plot hole and not just as Character error: it's not that maybe he's wrong about the armor, it's the whole situation that now is flawed reprising the original with key differences.

Entzünde dein Kosmo - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Seiya creates a large crater in the arena, deep enough that he has to step out of it to offer his handshake to his adversary. Cassios refuses the handshake and kicks him, making Seiya jump away. He then charges at Seiya in a straight line, as if the crater didn't exist, but when Shaina screams at him telling him to get out of the way, Cassios is exactly on the edge of the massive hole. It's as if he walked on air during his charge. (00:06:20)

Continuity mistake: The team has to come up with a plan to handle The Truth. Destiny's friend Willow stands up and says "So look, here's my plan." Destiny announces she has a better one; during this exchange, the phone in Cristine Prosperi's hand switches hands. (00:11:30)
