Soccer Is My Dream - S1-E20

Continuity mistake: Morisaki makes the interception before Meiwa's number 8. In the reaction shot with the coach and Ishizaki, all of a sudden behind them it's full of people with a rather conspicuous tan who were nowhere to be seen a moment before. (00:15:05)

Soccer Is My Dream - S1-E20

Continuity mistake: Ishizaki makes an upbeat comment about Morisaki's performance, but Manabu takes exception. During the exchange, one of the boys in the background has green pants that turn blue and green again. (00:05:30)

Chapter 3 - S1-E3

Stupidity: The inspector knows that his house has been bugged; he does not know how many bugs and cameras are there, he just knows there are some. He does find a bunch of them with great ease when he gets back home - making you wonder how could he have ignored them to begin with, since all it takes is for him to raise his eyes, they are fairly big black cameras who do not camouflage at all for the most part. He then proceeds to make a phone call to the big baddie from his landline. Nobody in their right mind would do such a thing. Heck, you wouldn't want to use your home phone for such a call even if you didn't know that someone just put bugs all over your house.

Chapter 2 - S1-E2

Plot hole: The ways Lupin enters and exits the prison don't make sense other than in a movie. He gets in timing appropriately his visit to the inmate, and performing a magic trick that requires actual magic to work; it is a trope and can be conventionally accepted as 'power' of any skilled movie thief to be able to wriggle out of handcuffs, but here he disengages from the cuffs someone else; a non-collaborating and unsuspecting individual, without having the keys and without him noticing. In a realistic series, that's a huge strain on suspension of disbelief. Even worse how he gets out; he fakes hanging himself by tying the noose to a basketball net he wears as harness. They just show him waking up in the ambulance, and that's good, because there's no way that the guards or medics didn't notice that apparatus dismounting him or attempting any first aid. They would have felt the net simply touching his shirt, even.

Chapter 4 - S1-E4

Plot hole: Lupin is a super-smart character who is always way ahead of his competitors. He acquires a VHS tape that is a smoking gun on his most hated enemy. He puts online (so he managed to convert it in digital format) a small clip as 'teaser' and shares it on twitter, where it goes viral. Then he goes to national TV...where the director is in cahoots with Pellegrini and plays a version of the tape that edits the incriminating part out. And that is enough to entirely defeat him. Apparently, he did not have a digital copy of the whole thing he can release to prove the editing job! It does not make any sense, especially since he knew that Pellegrini had the official media under his control, and him going on TV - lying about his own identity under a ridiculous makeup - couldn't have any positive effect worth the risk.

Chapter 4 - S1-E4

Factual error: Assane and his son play "Horizon Zero Dawn", against each other. Which is not a multiplayer, competitive game. (00:25:40)

Chapter 3 - S1-E3

Other mistake: At the beginning of the episode, the date on the security camera is 29/11/2020, 1:30 am. Later when the policeman checks his phone, it's 30/11, meaning that Pellegrini waited to contact him more than a day. In episode 2, Assane's phone showed the date as Tuesday 27th Oct (timecode around 00:16:30), which would mean if true that they investigated for over a month without discussing with the commissioner the basic details, which of course is impossible. (00:02:30 - 00:13:30)

Chapter 4 - S1-E4

Plot hole: Fabienne Beriot is a crack investigation journalist who wrote an entire book about Pellegrini's corruption and crimes and was hellbent on dragging him through the mud. Yet she is unaware of what happened to Assane; somehow she managed to Miss in her lifelong investigation the 'small' fact that Pellegrini saved his empire by cashing in huge insurance money thanks to a very public theft that screamed insurance scam.

Chapter 1 - S1-E1

Plot hole: The protagonist gets in the exclusive, multi-millionaire, invites-only auction because the invitation is on a printed letter that he faked. This means that the guards at the entrance don't have a guest list to check, and since nobody knows who this person is, the staff does run a background check on his identity when he makes the first outrageous bid...by looking his name up on Wikipedia. That's mighty low standards of security, especially for an auction that was supposed to be for a selected audience and the most important in France.

The Verification Test - S1-E16

Other mistake: 15 players were picked for the team. Genzo is injured, 11 are playing. Three are MIA with no explanation. Morisaki has to parry 10 shots for every other player, he parries 100 total. Ryo Ishizaki though is still a substitute, so that would mean there's the unexplained absence of even one more team regular.

The Verification Test - S1-E16

Revealing mistake: As he chases the train with Sanae, Manabu's eyes are missing part of the drawing (probably a mistake in coloring painted the white of the eye the same color of the face). (00:22:00)

Sammo ★

The Verification Test - S1-E16

Continuity mistake: When Morisaki catches the 90th shot, there's nothing on the field as he falls, but in the next shot he lies prone surrounded by footballs. (00:18:35)

The Verification Test - S1-E16

Continuity mistake: After dinner, Roberto wants to speak with Tsubasa's mother. In the very first shot she's wearing a pale green shirt (like Genzo), but in the rest of their conversation she is wearing pink. (00:15:20)

The Verification Test - S1-E16

Continuity mistake: Tsubasa in the first part of training scores easily a goal against Morisaki. Ryo scolds him; At that moment, Morisaki's jersey is of a Genzo-like orange. (00:12:50)

Sammo ★

The Verification Test - S1-E16

Character mistake: Ishizaki bashes (quite literally, hitting him in the head with an angry punch) Morisaki because he did not catch Tsubasa's shot, saying it was easy. Someone drew the shot the wrong way or Ishizaki is a complete idiot - and all his teammates that do not say anything too. Tsubasa's shot was almost impossible to catch.

The Verification Test - S1-E16

Factual error: Judging by the x-ray of the leg, Genzo wouldn't even be walking without a cane, let alone play. His tibia is shattered. (00:07:20)

The Verification Test - S1-E16

Continuity mistake: Mrs. Ozora messed up the dinner. When she rages at the stove, her skirt is blue. It was red when the scene began. (00:02:10)

Sammo ★

An Unfair Enemy - S1-E15

Other mistake: Wakabayashi throws the ball to his teammates leading to the hat-trick; the ball in that shot is of the wrong size, almost twice as big as Genzo's head. (00:18:50)

Sammo ★

An Unfair Enemy - S1-E15

Continuity mistake: Four players charge Wakabayashi illegally...but only three walk away once the referee whistles. (00:12:30)

An Unfair Enemy - S1-E15

Continuity mistake: The goalkeeper incites the rest of the team in their dastardly plan. He's facing right. Camera pans across the Shimizu team and their murderous faces, and the one to the far right, looking to the left, is the same keeper. (00:10:40)
