ENF Novels: Dress Code

Other mistake: When Mr. Bianchetti gives the approval to Brigitte's plan, he replies "can be done", with no capitalization (it's like a line or a few words are missing).

ENF Novels: Dress Code

Other mistake: The scenes inside Brigitte's office happen in the span of 10 days, but the clothes on the floor remain the same throughout them.

Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 3 - S1-E21

Plot hole: During the blackout, the people who will turn out in the next episode to be the killer and the victim say things (in monologue) and act in ways that don't make sense in relation to the plot and are merely meant to cheat the audience.

Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 3 - S1-E21

Continuity mistake: Kindaichi receives the keys of the building from superintendent Akechi. Notice the somewhat lengthy pieces of wire linking the keys to the large ring. When Kindaichi cracks the case and grabs the keys from his room telling Miyuki to go, the links are half the size they were. (00:19:55 - 00:20:45)

Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 3 - S1-E21

Audio problem: Kindaichi is listening to the recording of the phone call a couple times over; however he does not listen to it in a loop, but rather the file shows up as lasting 52 seconds, with the call being just a handful of seconds. On top of that, when he listens to it again in front of the building, the timestamps don't match.

Lupin the 3rd (1971)

Is Lupin Burning... ?! - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: After killing the whole Scorpion gang, Lupin approaches Fujiko on the torture rack. She was barefoot and her clothes were torn in several spots earlier, but in the early wide shot there are not tears and is wearing pink sandals. She is in the sorrier state in close-up. (00:15:40)

Lupin the 3rd (1971)

Is Lupin Burning... ?! - S1-E1

Stupidity: Despite the fact that there are 100 (literally) cameras around the racing circuit and (again literally) everyone from the staff to the fellow racers works for the Scorpion gang, Jigen and Lupin's switch can happen without anyone noticing, even if it involved racing side by side for a lengthy period of time.

Lupin the 3rd (1971)

Is Lupin Burning... ?! - S1-E1

Other mistake: When Lupin spins out of the oil patch, the "4" on the front of his car (on the arrow) disappears. The number changes also font and position several times throughout the episode. (00:09:40)

Lupin the 3rd (1971)

Is Lupin Burning... ?! - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When the Scorpion Leader announces that the driver of car number 4 is Lupin, we see a close-up of his face, but the man in the car had his face covered up to his nose by a scarf. Lupin puts the scarf and protective goggles only after a couple seconds. (00:04:45)

Lupin the 3rd (1971)

Is Lupin Burning... ?! - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: On the radio with Lupin, Jigen tells him that Fujiko infiltrated the hotel. He turns towards the hotel, right-hand supporting the chin. Wider angle, and his hand is nowhere near his face. (00:02:20)

Revealing mistake: When Poirot reads the newspaper detailing Lady Westholme's death, the font and the clarity of the print on the article stick out from the rest of the page like a sore thumb. (01:38:30)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Just before Poirot moves to the other side of the dinner table after revealing lady Westholme's deception, Dr. King at first has both hands on the table, but in the next shot she is in a different position. Same for Jefferson Cope and his cigarette; he's smoking, then he is not. (01:33:55)
