The Youth National Championship - S1-E17
Continuity mistake: The first time Ishizaki meets Nakanishi, he has a jersey with a big black number 1 on a plain yellow back. When he bumps into him for the second time, his jersey is yellow with a red upper back, and no number. (00:06:30 - 00:12:30)
The Youth National Championship - S1-E17
Character mistake: Matsuyama meets Misaki and asks him with surprise if he's part of the tournament too. But in the previous episode, Matsuyama was aware of that already and mentioned to the rest of the team that since they qualified, they would face him. (00:07:50)
The Youth National Championship - S1-E17
Continuity mistake: Urabe and Ishizaki have their little banter about the final. Next shot, and they can be seen in the wider shot just eating like nothing happened. (00:11:00)
The Youth National Championship - S1-E17
Other mistake: The whole team is supposed to be at the opening ceremony, but only 9 players are in the group. Ishizaki in the bathroom, but still there are people missing. (00:12:00)
The Youth National Championship - S1-E17
Continuity mistake: When Ishizaki is chased by the colossal Taichi Nakanishi, he yells for help; Tsubasa's jersey has the number with the wrong font and color (black and not blue). (00:12:40)
The Youth National Championship - S1-E17
Continuity mistake: During the opening ceremony, the Furano team leads with Matsuyama carrying a flag, then another player, then the goalkeeper. Next shot and the flag is gone and a generic player replaces the keeper. (00:14:40)
The Youth National Championship - S1-E17
Continuity mistake: The first time we see the alcoholic coach of Meiwa in a professional capacity he is sitting on the floor with a big sake bottle. The bottle is in a different spot in the next shot. (00:17:55)
The Youth National Championship - S1-E17
Continuity mistake: When the camera pans on the crowd for the first match, and we see for the first time Roberto Hongo and Tsubasa's mom, behind them there are 2 people wearing big glasses, and one guy behind Roberto is wearing a beige jacket. Closer angle, and just one person sports shades, plus Mr. Beige Jacket is wearing a powder blue suit. (00:20:25)
The Youth National Championship - S1-E17
Continuity mistake: When Hyuga points at the sky to make his menacing speech, the ground is clay instead of grass. (00:21:50)
The Youth National Championship - S1-E17
Character mistake: Ishizaki fails to recognize that the 'giant' he met is a goalkeeper. He was wearing long sleeves, goalkeeper gloves and when he walked away Bruce kept staring at him...and the enormous number 1 on his back. It takes a very special kind of football player to not identify someone like that as a goalkeeper.
Continuity mistake: When Sanae and the other 2 cheerleaders are hitch-hiking, in the first wide shot her hair looks much different from her normal haircut. (00:01:35)
Audio problem: When the coach passes the ball to Tsubasa, his lips are badly out of synch with the phrase. (00:03:40)
Continuity mistake: The hirsute character next to Sanae and the other cheerleaders has a yellow sleeve at first, then grey. (00:06:15 - 00:07:00)
Audio problem: When Genzo expresses his disbelief ("Nani?") his mouth does not open. (00:07:45)
Continuity mistake: Takeshi Sawada dribbles 9 players, he has 1 left in front of him, but still he is facing Misaki too, and dribbles twice the same players (Urabe and Taki). (00:11:40)
Continuity mistake: When Tsubasa and Hyuga have their senseless head-to-head challenge, they have a low wall and a green hill and trees as background instead of the bleachers that were visible in the wider angles. (00:14:00)
Revealing mistake: Taki dispossesses an adversary, and promptly two more run towards him. The animation skips during their run, with the advertising banners changing color between two frames. (00:06:25)
Continuity mistake: The referee hands Kisugi the ball for the free kick. Notice his white socks. As the camera pans out to show the tactical disposition for the free kick, the ref is sporting black socks. (00:09:15)
Other mistake: Hyuga comfortably catches with his chest a free kick that for no reason seems to have basically lost any strength and speed between shots. (00:09:30)
Continuity mistake: Once Hyuga intercepts the ball, he has a stand-off with Tsubasa, who vows that he will not lose. During that shot, Tsubasa is missing the captain insignia. The band comes back right away at the cut. (00:09:40)
