Young Kidaichi's Murder: File 1 - S2-E1

Revealing mistake: There's a frame of animation obviously missing when the cameraman moves past the rest of the crowd that gathers after the maid's scream. He basically teleports past Miyuki while his hand is still in the same position it had when he had the hand on her shoulder. (00:14:40)

Other mistake: Kindaichi escapes handcuffing the detective to the toilet's chain. Try to think of the last time you went to a restroom and the chain was SO long that you could yank it across the whole room (not stall, room) and outside the door. Going behind the sink's drain, even. Never seen a toilet like this in my life (and in that kind of bathroom, you have usually buttons or pedals, anyway). (00:21:00)

Other mistake: Miyuki notices the pager beeping and finds out that Kindaichi gave it to her without her noticing. In fact when he said goodbye to her, the keen-eyed viewer can actually spot him slipping her the device. There are a couple of slight problems with that; first, she retrieves it, not in frame, from her left side, but Kindaichi put it on the right side of her person. Second; she is wearing a white skirt with no pockets. (00:20:15)

Continuity mistake: Kindaichi and Miyuki are having breakfast since he already cracked the code but does not want to reveal the solution yet. A few seconds later there's a shot of the table from above the shoulder; not only the stuff on Kindaichi's tray changed and the yogurt moved to the right, but Miyuki was sitting across him and now she's on his right.

Continuity mistake: Across the 4 parts of the episode, both Kindaichi's yellow shirt and Miyuki's orange top are tie-fronts; the way they are drawn though keeps changing, and multiple times (would be redundant to enumerate them) they leave a large opening below the tie in one shot, and are completely closed in the next.
