Kyaputen Tsubasa

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)

A Career Begins - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: When the two aces compete for Roberto's centering kick, Tsubasa is on the outside, in front of Genzo, going parallel to him yet as they land he's on the opposite side. (00:09:00)

Sammo

The New Soccer Star - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: Tsubasa moves up the ditch with a diagonal strafing. He then answers Sanae's questions but suddenly on that same ditch, by his feet, Roberto Hongo is resting, sleeping. If he were sleeping on the other side of the road (as it seems when he gets up later) then the feet of the characters in that first shot were facing the wrong way. (00:08:50)

The Football Is My Best Friend - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: Roberto instructs the players to take their football everywhere. Ryo is the first to do so, but the soccer balls are in different positions from the beginning of the scene when he started the speech, even if Roberto hasn't moved. (00:02:20 - 00:03:20)

Sammo

A Career Begins - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Tsubasa dribbles 9 to 11 players in his first sprint, never stops advancing when tackled (he jumps over the offenders), dribbles 5 more, but in front of the penalty area there are at least 8 new guys ready for him. (00:07:05)

Sammo

A Career Begins - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Tsubasa is athletic and quick and goes straight towards the goal starting from the kick-off spot at midfield, but a couple of opponents he dribbled try to tackle him again, and are incoherently shown as tackling from the front even if they came from behind. (00:07:00)

Mega-Shot - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: Yayoi sits by Tsubasa as she tells him Jun's sad story. When she says "He might never be able to play football again", behind the two there are already more than the 4 steps they sit on in other shots. (00:13:55)

Sammo

I Can't Play - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: The manager picks in the basket the sweaty towels each Nankatsu kid used, but when the coach tries to pep talk them, the basket is empty like at the beginning of the scene. (00:04:50)

An Unfair Enemy - S1-E15

Trivia: Probably as a joke from an animator, there's a pig in attendance in the stadium. It appears in one shot, by Roberto Hongo when Tsubasa's mom calls for a hat-trick. (00:18:30)
