Kick-Off for the Future - S1-E3
Other mistake: Urabe mentions that Nankatsu lost to Shutetsu 30 to 0 (which seems rather uncanny for a 40 minutes match), but the score mentioned in the first episode was 10 to 0. The more extravagant result ends up being the canon one.

Kick-Off for the Future - S1-E3
Other mistake: The kid who wants the soccer team to stop training is told off by Sanae, who points at the good efforts on the pitch. The animation of the team in training has noticeable errors, with a player that suddenly appears coming out of nowhere from behind the rightmost one, who is standing immobile in front of the goal and after a second disappears abruptly. (00:14:05)

Kick-Off for the Future - S1-E3
Other mistake: Spurred by his new deskmate, Tsubasa juggles the ball and sends it with a header right onto the empty seat. Pretty sure it's forbidden in any school to just come to class with a football, but besides that; look at how the football is in view. How tall would the chair have to be for that to happen? Whoever sits on it has no room to put their legs under the desk for sure. (00:10:35)
20th Jan 2021
Other mistake: When Sanae tells to the team "Ishizaki is right!" and gives them a pep talk, she's practically a hobbit next to the others, and a couple players are on odd mounds as if it were a baseball field. On a soccer pitch you just can't have that sort of uneven ground. (00:19:00)
20th Jan 2021
Other mistake: When Miss Ozora tells Roberto that he should have shown her The Letter from the beginning, Tsubasa is drawn looking in the wrong direction. (00:17:25)
20th Jan 2021
Other mistake: Tsubasa is talking to 'his friend' the football as he does keepie-uppies. He is normally animated pretty decently during that activity, except in the shot when he is telling his friend about Genzo's skills; he is keeping his torso completely immobile, moving just his thighs, which is just physically impossible. A few shots later his torso is still again but at least his thighs are not in frame (the ball is though, what could he possibly be using to juggle it up?). (00:06:10)
20th Jan 2021
Other mistake: During Sion's introduction, the word "privileges" is misspelled.
19th Jan 2021
Other mistake: The protagonist finds out that his wife is cheating on him, and decides to try to dial the killer. We see his phone number, it's 328 241... Later on, after visiting his brother's parish, he tries to contact his 'frenemy' again but the number now is 386 909.etc. He can't have changed number in that short while (and the protagonist wouldn't know anyway). (01:03:10 - 01:10:55)
19th Jan 2021
Other mistake: Tsubasa 'powers' in this episode get nerfed in the rest of the series; he is in elementary school and yet his shot flies literally miles off to land with precision in the arms of Wakabayashi. If he had this power and precision during a match, he'd be superhuman.
19th Jan 2021
Other mistake: Genzo's challenge invites anyone to score shooting outside the penalty area...but we see that at least the rugby captain is standing inside the box. (00:12:20)
19th Jan 2021
Other mistake: The international dubs (Spanish, Italian, from what I understand even Arabian) have the narrator say that Fujisawa (which is where the international dubs set the story instead of the fictional town of Nankatsu) is renowned for its football teams, plural. That's not true, since the only strong team is Genzo's Shutetsu, and the competing team in the local derby loses 10-0 to them, and the prestige the city has comes from their victory in the previous championship tournament.
19th Jan 2021
Other mistake: Star keeper Genzo Wakabayashi has a trademark hat with his name and a cool logo. According to his manga character design he was supposed to wear the Adidas logo, but copyright issues arose and the Nankatsu logo is a great substitute visually - sadly it makes no sense, because he is sporting it already at the beginning of the anime and the team with that logo will be properly formed only later in the series.
19th Jan 2021
Other mistake: Since Max renounced his wish, it is implied and shown that he had to give up also all the benefits he gained from his role, still he uses the Marine One presidential heli to get back to land. There's also no way he'd know where his son was, considering that in the lasso's vision he was running on a highway, and he happens to find him at the White House lawn. (02:20:00)
19th Jan 2021
Other mistake: The Emir wishes his ancestral land to be returned to him and the heathens to be kept out, but the wall that magically appears has 'heathens' on both sides of it, so his wish does not seem to be fulfilled. (01:19:00)
17th Jan 2021
Other mistake: When Ishizaki is unwrapping his leg from the bandages, he's wearing the football boot he is NOT wearing before and afterwards. (00:15:10)
17th Jan 2021
Other mistake: Misaki's dad just arrived at the stadium, and seeing his son play, he strokes his beard with a satisfied look. Problem is, he's still standing and the hand that rubs his chin was holding a toolbox he did not have time to put down (or anywhere to place it on, for that matter). (00:10:40)
17th Jan 2021
Other mistake: After his ankle injury from the previous episode, Ryo writhes in pain touching...his knee. (00:03:00)
17th Jan 2021
Other mistake: The linesman's flag as he hands the ball to Taki is unreasonably tiny. (00:18:45)
17th Jan 2021
Other mistake: After the first extra time, only 8 players (plus the keeper and Ryo) are back to the bench for all the pep talk and chat. (00:16:55)
17th Jan 2021
Other mistake: In the end credits, two actors are credited as "Camaro driver" and "Camaro passenger." The sports car that appeared in the movie (without a mandatory front license plate) was however a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. (00:11:35 - 02:26:00)
