Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac

Die Schwarzen Saints - S1-E5

Stupidity: Shaun thanks Seiya for revealing the weak point of the armors of the Black Knights, but Seiya didn't actually do anything; the armor malfunctioned on its own. If Shaun is able to deal strikes with her chain precise enough to target a small box on the back of the enemy's neck, one would argue that she could have easily hit any other vital point the armors leave completely unprotected - especially since she showed also that she could elude their shield commanding the chain to take a sharp turn around it - which hit the supposed weak spot but didn't do anything, contradicting what is shown later.

Die Kette des Nebels - S1-E4

Stupidity: In the original, the knight of the Phoenix suddenly appeared during the arena fights interrupting the show and stealing the Gold Cloth. In this remake of the saga, Sienna/Saori Kido leaves the arena by plane during a bombardment that occurs way before Nero/Ikki arrives to steal the Cloth. There is no reason why she would fly off in her VTOL without bringing the Golden Cloth with her, then (there's a lot of time for that). Instead she leaves it for the 4 Saints for them to "protect it", against a whole army and on foot in the middle of the desert.

Entzünde dein Kosmo - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Seiya creates a large crater in the arena, deep enough that he has to step out of it to offer his handshake to his adversary. Cassios refuses the handshake and kicks him, making Seiya jump away. He then charges at Seiya in a straight line, as if the crater didn't exist, but when Shaina screams at him telling him to get out of the way, Cassios is exactly on the edge of the massive hole. It's as if he walked on air during his charge. (00:06:20)
