The Campground 'Bizarre' Case - S1-E17
Audio problem: Having reached the campground sign, Juri Takano shouts at the others that they are almost there. Her mouth animation comes about a second before the sound starts. (00:06:50)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 2 - S1-E20
Plot hole: One of the plot points of the episode lies in the fact that Kenmochi is accused to be the killer because only the cops had Busujima's phone number, apart from his two accomplices. That point holds absolutely no weight; the killer is a killer because he, well, killed someone, and that someone was exactly one of those accomplices. It's a fact that can't be ignored by even the most ignorant investigator, especially with the accomplice's phone being directly involved in the murder. (00:10:15)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 2 - S1-E20
Continuity mistake: When Kindaichi confronts Akechi in the corridor of the station about his decision to issue an arrest order for Kenmochi, you can notice two billboards; the one to the left has a single poster on it, and its height (compare it to the ones on the board to the right) changes between shots. (00:07:30)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 1 - S1-E19
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of Akechi's flashback, Kenmochi is holding his clenched fists on top of a single open notebook. A second later he's doing the same, but on two separate pieces of paper. (00:14:40)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 1 - S1-E19
Continuity mistake: Erina just sent away the lawyer and the guy who raped his sister. She falls on her knees crying, and you can see on the floor some scattered boots lying around. Kenmochi helps her back on her feet, and the shoes are gone. (00:08:20)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 1 - S1-E19
Continuity mistake: When Kenmochi has tea with the sister of the victim, the cookies on the plates change position between shots. You can also notice in the same scene that the kettle's handle switches sides. (00:06:10)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 1 - S1-E19
Continuity mistake: When Kenmochi is praying at the altar of the victim from the old case, the burnt part of the incense changes length between shots. (00:05:55)
Murder at 10,000 Meters File 1 - S1-E15
Continuity mistake: Kenmochi is holding the handkerchief in different ways when he calls Akechi after discovering the smoke bombs. (00:11:30)
Murder at 10,000 Meters File 1 - S1-E15
Continuity mistake: Kenmochi hands Kindaichi the ticket. The ticket, as you can see by the black stripe, is facing the opposite way between shots. (00:03:50)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 2 - S1-E20
Character mistake: Not only the program of the police station computer misspells "Matching" missing the I, but the operator says that the print on the right is Kenmochi's and the left print is the one taken from the device; it's the other way around. (00:19:20)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 2 - S1-E20
Plot hole: The brief intermission when Busujima meets the 'killer', or at least the person wearing the hat, does not make sense plot-wise and is merely a dishonest way to trick the audience. It's not even something Busujima tells someone, so it can't be characterized as a 'unreliable narrator' device. (00:18:30)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 2 - S1-E20
Continuity mistake: The lawyer is thrown back by the explosion. Lying on the gravel, hurt, he raises his head in close-up to look at the fire. In the wide shot though, he's unconscious. (00:16:30)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 1 - S1-E19
Continuity mistake: Busujima is playing with his handheld console inside the hospital room. When he puts the console down, you can see his smartphone on the bed; however, it's behind the pillow in one shot, well in front of it in the next. (00:15:50)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 1 - S1-E19
Other mistake: When Akechi drives Kindaichi to the scene of the shooting, the tachometer of his car is set at 0. (00:14:00)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 1 - S1-E19
Other mistake: Hajime ends the conversation with Miyuki, but the screen on her phone still shows the conversation going. (00:13:50)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 1 - S1-E19
Other mistake: There's a coloring mistake in the glass in front of Busujima in the shot when finishes playing his handheld game and sends the waitress away; the glass is half empty / half full...but vertically. The part to the right of the straw is full to the brim and the part to its left is nearly empty. (00:10:35)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 1 - S1-E19
Continuity mistake: Kindaichi and his friend are watching Tamaki's roaring success with the ladies on his first day of school. At the first cut there are clear changes in their position (just look at Kindaichi's hand). (00:03:50)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 1 - S1-E19
Continuity mistake: Miyuki listens all dreamy to the guy who nearly killed her. When he says that he's been in America the past years, she joins her hands together; she does it with the pinky finger of her right-hand being the bottom finger, but in the next close-up the bottom finger is her left pinky. (00:03:40)
Evil Spirit of the Diving Pool - S1-E18
Continuity mistake: When Kindaichi wakes up from the flashback/dream, Miyuki stares at him with her fingers along her cheek or closed to a fist. (00:21:00)
Evil Spirit of the Diving Pool - S1-E18
Continuity mistake: 14-years old Kindaichi comes up with the solution of the case but gets interrupted as he is about to utter his catchphrase. In the scene, the bookmark is in the top half of the book next to him, the bottom half when we see his mother scolding him. (00:12:00)
