Collision Course (1989)

Continuity mistake: At the precinct after the encounter with Madras, Pat Morita tells Jay Leno "You good cop and honorable man." Behind him, Dingman is seated, arm along the armrest, but when the inspector pops out of the office he is already leaning forward and ready to perform the arrest he ill be ordered a couple seconds later.

Collision Course (1989)

Continuity mistake: Conversation across the car out of the bowling place. Costas sarcastically says "Well, with that kind of hard evidence we should get a conviction overnight" and pulls his hands back to open the door. But in the next shot, the hands are still on the car roof and he changes position only after. (01:01:10)

Collision Course (1989)

Continuity mistake: During the climactic car chase with Leno on a motorbike, the bike darts down the road along a store, and the villains shoot at him breaking a store window. A store window, singular, because the same window gets shot a couple times, just shown from a different angle. Same for other views of extras/stunt people diving out of the way/falling down, the window bit with the life preservers is the most obvious of course. (01:25:55)

Collision Course (1989)

Revealing mistake: At the end of the racetrack scene, the bike stops before the curve where the staff is waving the yellow flag for an accident. In the close-up of the asphalt you can see skidmarks exactly following the path the bike makes, and the odds that the racetrack where F3-like cars are competing has motorbike-sized prints exactly coming out at that curve are of course pretty low.

Collision Course (1989)

Continuity mistake: Costas tells the agent that the mysterious person must have gotten out at the mezzanine.The clothing cart meanwhile passes, and its path crosses with a boy with an azure shirt. Wider shot follows, and the guy is still cutting into the path of the clothes valet, but he is in front of the hotel staffer by a significant margin. (00:22:30)

Collision Course (1989)

Continuity mistake: Chasing the Japanese detective, Jay Leno enters a mall. He approaches the photo shop hiding his face behind a small balloon, and walks towards the camera. Before the cut, two women move in frame, one wears pink, the other wears blue. Next shot and as he speaks with the girl at the counter the two women are again moving in frame, but they are behind him and starting off from a part of the mall they originally came from.

Collision Course (1989)

Continuity mistake: When Costas gets pulled over at the beginning of the movie, he stops the car. Initially, between the brick building and the concrete one there's a road with no cars. In Jay Leno's close-up once he is asked "License and registration, please" behind his big head you can see a black and white car, and a couple police officers on the sidewalk. (00:05:00)

Super Robot Wars V

Super Robot Wars V mistake picture

Character mistake: During mission 48, " Lost and Bound", some pilots have a personalized message if they engage ELS units for the first time. Ange's says "if there's a way out of this that DOENS'T involve fighting", with a typo.

Super Robot Wars V

Character mistake: Facing Exev in his Imperial (for instance during mission 45), you are very likely to get as one of his messages "Darkness opens it's mouth to consume you", with a bad grammar mistake.

Super Robot Wars V

Character mistake: Facing enemies from the Invaders/Getter ray infected faction, Go has as opening line "You don't under the meaning of evolution", missing a rather important part of the word "understand."

Super Robot Wars V

Other mistake: During the mission on the capital of the Gamila empire (Scenario 49: Closing the Books), when Soji (if he's your main character) receives his robot back, he says "The accelaration on this is great now...", with poor quality control for the typo (should be "acceleration").

Super Robot Wars V

Other mistake: During the game the word "Naive" is used somewhat frequently and spelled two different ways; one is with a normal letter " I " that creates no issues whatsoever, the other is with a different spelling (probably with the I with diaeresis, " ï ") that may not be visualized correctly, as several times (such as in one of the dodge quotes by Ryoko or in cutscenes) it appears as Na·ve. There's no reason why there should not be a consistent way to spell it, anyway.

Super Robot Wars V

Other mistake: Koji Kabuto's phrase attacking characters with shields such as the Lambda Driver or Distortion Field is "Mazinger's power can smash through an barrier", with an obvious misuse of 'an' in front of a (n) consonant.

Garma Strikes - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: Garma deploys the Zeon Mobile Suits. The three Zakus descend in a different order in the various shots (the rightmost one is much closer to the ground at first, in midair it appears to be last but catching up, and then it changes again next). (00:14:00)

Garma Strikes - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: When Garma visits Char that is taking a shower, he has a pink report in hand. In the close-up, the paper is orange, with just a very small pink label on the front cover. Returns pink when he stands up to leave. Finally, just before he actually leaves, the document is back to the orange cover, this time with a pink label bigger than the first time. (00:21:50)

Re-Entry to Earth - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: Fraw Bow hands soap and towels to a couple old men. The one behind her is wearing a blue suit with a green-ish bowtie. She looks around for Amuro, and when she finds him, Mr. Bowtie is wearing earthy colors, beige suit with a red tie. (00:03:00)

Sammo

Re-Entry to Earth - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: Char in his close quarter clash with Amuro sinks his Heat Hawk in the Gundam' shield, creating a huge gash that almost breaks it. When Kom explodes and both are thrown to the side and separated, Amuro's shield has still the hole from the early phases of the battle but not the big gash at the top. (00:15:50)

Destroy Gundam! - S1-E2

Other mistake: Bright gets notified that one of the two Zakus is approaching at a velocity 3 times higher than a normal mobile suit's. However, the two dots on the radar (Char and his subordinate Slender's) move in parallel at the same speed. (00:18:15)

Sammo

Garma Strikes - S1-E6

Audio problem: The officer is trying to force Bright to send out of the Gundam to break through the enemy forces. Kikka is singing, which makes him lose his temper. You can see though that when she supposedly sings her mouth is instead closed. (00:05:30)

Sammo

Garma Strikes - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: Amuro passes by Fraw Bow without saying anything. After that, you can see a group formed by Ryu, Hayato, Sayla and Mirai rushing to greet him. But at the cut, Mirai is not there, replaced by Kai Shiden. (00:20:00)
