Other mistake: When Alicia takes the grape soda out of the fridge, she pours it into her cup without first opening the can. If the can was already opened, then its contents would have spilled out from oscillation when Thing was dancing with the fridge before he set it down. (00:03:05)

The Mask of Doom: Part 3 - S1-E10
Continuity mistake: When Reed outstretched his body towards the Greek ship, it is the brown area of his armor that makes up the bridge between the Persian ship and the Greek ship. When Thing is shown running across Reed's body to get to the Greek ship, it is now blue instead of brown. When Reed unstretches himself, it is now shown to be his bare legs that were the bridge. (00:15:02)
The Mask of Doom: Part 3 - S1-E10

The Mask of Doom: Part 3 - S1-E10

The Mask of Doom: Part 3 - S1-E10
Continuity mistake: When the heroes fall asleep next to the Coffin of Argos, Thing is at the top of it, and Johnny's head is positioned midway with his feet nearly level with the top. When the Persians begin approaching them, the top of the coffin has now flipped to the opposite side, with Johnny's head resting near it, and Thing's head in line with the middle. The coffin also went from resting on the ground to being on top of a pile of treasure. (00:12:29 - 00:12:50)
The Mask of Doom: Part 3 - S1-E10

The Mask of Doom: Part 3 - S1-E10
Continuity mistake: When the heroes are fending off the attacking Persian army, Johnny flies by a group of them and throws fire at them to keep them at bay. When he flies by again going the opposite direction, the animators have drawn him considerably smaller than he was on his first pass. (00:04:59)
Answer: Gleaned from the Internet: Much of the negative reaction was due to the poor, simplistic, and outdated quality of the animation where the characters moved stiffly and clumsily through scenes. There were also some obvious animation compositing gaffs. The animation colors were also criticized as being overly bright and cheery and out of character to the established story's darker tone. The broad humor of the first season was replaced by a more mature narrative between the characters.
