Young Kidaichi's Murder: File 1 - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: Kindaichi and Miyuki are having breakfast since he already cracked the code but does not want to reveal the solution yet. A few seconds later there's a shot of the table from above the shoulder; not only the stuff on Kindaichi's tray changed and the yogurt moved to the right, but Miyuki was sitting across him and now she's on his right.

Young Kidaichi's Murder: File 1 - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: Across the 4 parts of the episode, both Kindaichi's yellow shirt and Miyuki's orange top are tie-fronts; the way they are drawn though keeps changing, and multiple times (would be redundant to enumerate them) they leave a large opening below the tie in one shot, and are completely closed in the next.

Hikou Isle Murder Case: File 3 - S1-E15

Continuity mistake: When Kindaichi strips Midori, he yanks the bra completely off the breast bringing it all the way below the ribcage. That's in the front views, because in the back view merely the shoulder strap is lowered, the rest of the undergarment is perfectly horizontal and unperturbed.

Hiren Lake Legend Murder Case: File 1 - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: When Kindaichi and the others talk with the mature couple, the president is wearing a purple-ish jacket and a red shirt. At dinner, they make a comment about Miyuki and Eiji Touno being a couple. From behind, the president is wearing his jacket, but from the front he's just wearing the red shirt. (00:09:40)

Opera House Murder Case: File 1 - S1-E21

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode you can see on the deck only Miyuki, a guy to her right, and to her left Kindaichi and her female friend. When Kindaichi starts throwing up, the whole drama club is there and everyone's position has changed. (00:01:45)

Magical Express Murder Case: File 3 - S2-E12

Audio problem: When Kindaichi understands the trick and runs away from the murder room, Miyuki as usual exclaims "Hajime-chan!" but with a curious flub in animation, her tongue moves but not her lips. Try to say "Hajime-chan" keeping your mouth open all the time, it's fun. (00:18:45)
