Starring: Arihiro Hase

Genres: Animated, Drama, Family, Sport

Kick-Off for the Future - S1-E3

Other mistake: Urabe mentions that Nankatsu lost to Shutetsu 30 to 0 (which seems rather uncanny for a 40 minutes match), but the score mentioned in the first episode was 10 to 0. The more extravagant result ends up being the canon one.

Kick-Off for the Future - S1-E3

Other mistake: The kid who wants the soccer team to stop training is told off by Sanae, who points at the good efforts on the pitch. The animation of the team in training has noticeable errors, with a player that suddenly appears coming out of nowhere from behind the rightmost one, who is standing immobile in front of the goal and after a second disappears abruptly.

A Career Begins - S1-E2

Other mistake: When Sanae tells to the team "Ishizaki is right!" and gives them a pep talk, she's practically a hobbit next to the others, and a couple players are on odd mounds as if it were a baseball field. On a soccer pitch you just can't have that sort of uneven ground. (00:19:00)

The New Soccer Star - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Genzo kicks the ball towards Tsubasa, the close-up shows the leg of someone wearing just thick white socks, while Genzo is wearing red pants that don't ride up that high. (00:21:40)

The New Soccer Star - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: The inside of the truck Tsubasa and his mom ride in has stuff that change color/arrangement between shots. For instance, there's a beige box on top of the yellow and blue trunk next to Natsuko Ozora that is gone randomly in the aerial shots and when Yayoi is chasing them. (00:02:40)

The New Soccer Star - S1-E1

Factual error: Tsubasa is daydreaming over a picture of Italy winning the 1982 World Cup. The uniform in the photo though has trunks and collars of the wrong color, a yellow that has never been part of any of Italy's sets. And even if it's certainly not a photorealistic cartoon, the features/hairstyles of the team depicted have nothing to do with the winning team; the winning team was not composed of gingers with big perms; the majority had black hair of medium to short length. (00:02:45)

Where Is the Rival? - S1-E5

Trivia: When Sanae starts waving the flag she made for Tsubasa, in the background you can see a couple of grossly disproportional characters most likely drawn as a joke by some animator, and even the Road Runner. (00:14:55)
