Continuity mistake: When Tsubasa and Hyuga have their senseless head-to-head challenge, they have a low wall and a green hill and trees as background instead of the bleachers that were visible in the wider angles. (00:14:00)

Revealing mistake: Taki dispossesses an adversary, and promptly two more run towards him. The animation skips during their run, with the advertising banners changing color between two frames. (00:06:25)

Continuity mistake: The hirsute character next to Sanae and the other cheerleaders has a yellow sleeve at first, then grey. (00:06:15 - 00:07:00)

Continuity mistake: When Sanae and the other 2 cheerleaders are hitch-hiking, in the first wide shot her hair looks much different from her normal haircut. (00:01:35)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
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)

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)

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)

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)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
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)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
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)

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)

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)
11th Feb 2021
Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Continuity mistake: Four players charge Wakabayashi illegally...but only three walk away once the referee whistles. (00:12:30)

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)
11th Feb 2021
Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Continuity mistake: End of the first half. Ryo hands a yellow towel to his right and a blue towel to his left. They are swapped around in the reverse shot, and Shingo Takasugi is standing with them too. (00:07:25)

Trivia: To the left of the frame, someone in attendance behind Maruyama when she praises Wakabayashi's save has the jaw disjointed from the rest of the head. It's a "cameo" featuring a character from Urusei Yatsura, Ryunosuke's father. Also in attendance another character with a design that stands out from the rest, which seems to be Sakurambo, again from Urusei Yatsura. (00:06:07)
