Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: Between Burg's defeat and Mayfeld's encounter with the group of droids he easily disposes of (even if he couldn't hit or damage them earlier on), Mayfeld's shoulder gun switches side in one shot. (00:30:40)
Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6
Plot hole: When the distress signal is launched, approximately 20 minutes are left till the arrival of the New Republic fleet. From the control room the team arrives to the prisoner's cell with 15 minutes to spare. They lock Mando up, and next time they communicate with their getaway robot dude, it says there are only 10 minutes to go, meaning it took them an astonishingly long time to navigate the ship without being really much closer to the exit, having met no opposition. Then the episode turns into a slasher movie of sorts, and somehow Mando manages to find them separately, hunt them down and as it turns out, not simply disposing of them, but also drag their unconscious carcasses to the empty cell he escaped from. There's nothing coherent about this timeline.
Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6
Other mistake: Since they received a distress signal from a beacon, the X-wings...destroy the station the signal comes from, instantly. Maybe it's better not to ask for help (Notice the fact that they continue to attack it and in the concept art at the end of the episode the station is shown as exploding, not just the gunship they were launching).
Chapter 7: The Reckoning - S1-E7
Continuity mistake: During the close-up on Baby Yoda with his little cute hands by the credits on the table, the chips are positioned differently and differently the table is lit. (00:05:50)
Chapter 7: The Reckoning - S1-E7
Continuity mistake: Recruiting for the mission Cara Dune, Mando tells her "I have a ship." One guy with a green robe passes by behind him twice in two separate shots. (00:05:55)
Chapter 7: The Reckoning - S1-E7
Plot hole: Kuiil is shown salvaging the droid from the building's ruins. A campfire is still burning and the droid's remains are still smoking, but at the end of the mission he spent a couple days at least with Mando on the jawas' sidequest. The only time when he could have got the robot when the ruins were still smouldering would have been right after Mando left, but that implies he's been a huge jerk not giving him a ride, and lied to him when he acted surprised he was still alive - it's also impossible he could have had the droid on his property without Mando seeing it and freaking out. (00:09:50)
Chapter 7: The Reckoning - S1-E7
Revealing mistake: There's some sleight of hand involved when Cara gets her cup of tea from the repurposed IG-11. Maybe it was costly to have the animatronic arm working to the point of actually supporting the cup and hand it to her, so pay attention to what Cara actually does; Gina Carano is ALREADY holding the cup, taps the mechanical hand with it as if the fingers just released it from their grasp, and retrieves it. (00:11:50)
Chapter 7: The Reckoning - S1-E7
Continuity mistake: When Kuiil says that droids are neutral reflections, depending on the shot his right arm is lowered or raised towards the beast he's feeding. (00:12:40)
Chapter 7: The Reckoning - S1-E7
Continuity mistake: When Greef Karga approaches Mando's party apologizing for the far away rendez-vous (French is trendy even in space), the leftmost guy in his group has a long axe-like weapon he holds in his left hand, right hand at the reverse shot, let again in the rest of the scene. (00:17:20)
Chapter 7: The Reckoning - S1-E7
Continuity mistake: When the two bodyguards approach Greef Karga and the others from behind with the intention to shoot the good guys, the green guy has his pistol already fully raised, but conveniently when Karga double crosses him the gun is lower. (00:24:45)
Chapter 7: The Reckoning - S1-E7
Continuity mistake: Preparing to walk into the Client's compound, Cara wraps a cloth around her tattoo. The shot of the crew walking away from Kuiil (half of his head in the foreground) shows Gina Carano not wearing any bandage, the tat fully visible. (00:26:45)
Chapter 7: The Reckoning - S1-E7
Plot hole: The boss of the boss murders Werner Herzog because he knows that the baby is not in the crib. Yet it takes Mando's message (somehow intercepted) for the troopers to start moving in pursuit. The heck were they waiting for? They have overwhelming forces in the area and a previous deal with Karga. (00:33:10)
Chapter 7: The Reckoning - S1-E7
Plot hole: The Client does not care if The Child lives or dies, in fact he sent out bounties for the baby to be delivered dead, without even offering the incentive. But as if it were an SNL spoof, he is slowed down by Greef Karga's comment about the baby being asleep. Pretty amazing to begin with that the crib, aka an object completely sealed that could contain anything from a bomb to some form of killer droid or a stash of weapons, is allowed in without the faintest inspection. Not to mention that he is loaded with tracking fobs for the baby. He should be alerted just by not hearing beeps from the devices.
Chapter 7: The Reckoning - S1-E7
Other mistake: Kuiil says (and shows in the montage) that the droid had to be taught everything from scratch (takes days of practice to handle a bottle and pour a cup) and has developed a new personality. Yet it is highly skilled in combat as if it could access all the abilities it had when it was a bounty hunter. Either a droid has a 'muscle memory' that needs to be built back from scratch, or it does not. With his master having been in the army as a mechanic, it's strange to say the least that he could make a killer droid out of him, and that the droid can ride with mastery a speeder bike when he never practised it.
Chapter 7: The Reckoning - S1-E7
Other mistake: During the episode, everyone mentions that as a precautionary measure, Cara Dune should cover her arm tattoo that shows her status of (former) shock trooper for the Rebellion. Nobody even remotely mentions the Rebellion tattoo she has on her cheek showing she is a survivor from a planet vaporized by the Empire. It's like going to a Nazi meeting covering your Allied army rank but sporting a Star of David tat on your face. You are not making it much better. Nobody seems to notice though.
Continuity mistake: The Scout Troopers have finished their shooting game. One of them gets up and the other looks bored (and annoyed because he does not get to see the 'package'). He is leaning against the bike's handle, or not, depending on the shot. (00:04:10)
Continuity mistake: After the comedy skit with the two scout troopers is over, the ground in front of Moff Gideon is in the shade or sunlit depending on the camera angle. (00:06:00)
Continuity mistake: When the nerdy Moff namedrops Mando and Greef's real identities, the shots from the waist up are mirrored; look at the position of the buttons on his Darth Vader-esque chestplate. (00:08:30)
Continuity mistake: When IG-11 is making its way through the city with a cartoonish trail of explosions, Greef Karga is having a drink. There's a sudden cut, and in the second shot the glowy liquid in the bottle is bouncing around very noticeably as if the bottle (or the whole counter) was just moved/knocked, which did not happen in the previous shot. (00:15:45)
Chosen answer: They could be just like wrinkles from age, like the elderly Togruta in the Zygerrian slaver arc in The Clone Wars series, as Ahsoka is considerably older than her animated appearances. I think there is probably a character design/stylisation aspect to it as well - the other Togruta we've seen in live action, Shaak Ti, has four segments or folds in her lekku that were not visible in her Clone Wars appearances, so it would seem the character design in Clone Wars and Rebels reduces such features.
