Disney special effects artists made up a program that can make a bunch of different people that all look different without them having to draw every single character. They used this in the scene when all of the Huns come over the snowy hill. See more...

Continuity: When the matchmaker grabs Mulan's hand her palm is shown to be covered in ink. She then unwittingly paints herself a goatee. However, immediately after this she grabs the teapot's handle but no ink rubs off onto it. The ink miraculously disappears from her palm as well.
Continuity: In the avalanche scene the guys use a bow and arrow to save Mulan, the rope changes lengths from when they throw it to when they are pulling them up.
Continuity: After finding out that Mulan left, the father picks up the comb and it is facing in a different direction from before.
Continuity: In the final battle scene, Mulan has her ribbon around the wire to begin sliding down, but then decides against it. The next shot of her running toward a fallen knight, there is no ribbon visible. Also, the giant sword mark that was left after she cut down the wire has vanished.
Continuity: When Chen Po causes everyone to fall down, rice flies out of the bowls of the people who were waiting in line for food, though their bowls were empty.
Other: In the scene where Mulan ties up her hair after she has already cut it, she just wraps the ribbon around her hair and pulls. The way she did it would make her hair fall out.
Continuity: When all the ladies are helping to prepare Mulan for the matchmaker, one of them pushes Mulan into the bath. She drops water on top of Mulan's head and magically has shampoo in her hands before she applies it.
Continuity: When Mulan embraces her father at the end, the flower petals on the ground have changed position from before.
Continuity: After Mulan is done singing "Reflections" she sits down on a bench and suddenly her lips are darker than in the shot when she takes off the lipstik, and it's not like she is going to go inside put some lipstick on and then come back outside when she is that upset.
Continuity: When the girls are dressing Mulan they tie a cloth around her waist, and when they pull the knot it's first in front then when it is fully pulled it's in the back.
Continuity: The wagon, which is full of explosives, is on fire, so Mulan cuts Kahn (the horse) free with her sword and jumps onto Khan. She starts to ride away, while she holds the reins in her left hand and the sword with her right hand, up in the air. The wagon explodes and in the next shot, she still holds the reins in her left hand, though the sword, still in midair in her right hand, is now actually in its sheath, which is always attached to the left side of her belt. Some arrows are missing on the ground as well.
Continuity: In the begining of the movie when Fa Zu gets the conscription notice, look how big it is. Over the course of the film, it changes size several times.
Other: During the song "A Girl We're Fighting For", Yao has made several excellent snowmen of women. But the army was marching by, and he wouldn't have had nearly enough time to make them.
Other: When Crickie is typing the letter for Mushu he has ink on his feet yet when he jumps on the table to wipe off his feet there aren't any ink footprints where his foot was.
Continuity: When Mushu is holding the Great Stone Dragon's stone head it looks different than when the statue was whole.
Continuity: In the scene where Mulan takes off her makeup, she brings her arm up and wipes it off but she doesn't really ever touch her ears yet they suddenly don't have any makeup on them.
Continuity: In the beginning when Mulan pulls down her sleeve to hid her "Notes" on her arm from her father, she obviously has 3/4 length sleeves, but when she runs down the steps both of her sleeves are down to her wrists.
Continuity: Mulan throws tea over the Matchmaker to extinguish the fire, but the tea only hits her face, not her backside where the fire is. Nonetheless, the fire is suddenly gone afterwards.
Deliberate "mistake": During the movie, when Mulan is just a girl, you can see that her eyelashes extend beyond her eyes. When she is pretending to be a boy, her eyelashes are short (this makes perfect sense). But when she is in the medical tent her eyelashes are long even though she had no time to put on makeup. This is deliberate though, because without it she would have still looked like a boy, and just pulling her hair down wouldn't make her look any different (since that's how she looked in the pond). So they had to change her eyelashes to make her look more girlish.
Other: When Mushu is getting Mulan ready he ties her hair up, but he never makes a knot so how could it hold her hair up?
