Espa Roba: The ESP Duelist - Part 1 - S2-E9
Continuity mistake: When Joey draws Alligator Sword from his deck, he has his index finger, middle finger, and ring finger placed against the back of the card. In a close-up of the card, Joey's middle finger and ring finger are no longer touching the back of the card. (00:17:17)
Espa Roba: The ESP Duelist - Part 1 - S2-E9
Other mistake: When Joey draws his first set of cards, the spell card Graceful Dice can be seen as one of the cards in his hand. Later, on Joey's second turn, he draws the Graceful Dice card from his deck, meaning there should be two in his hand. When the cards in Joey's hand are next shown (at 0:10:25), there is only one Graceful Dice card, as well as one Skull Dice card. This is portrayed as Espa's brothers making a mistake, even though a Graceful Dice card was seen in his hand at the start of the duel. (00:05:08 - 00:09:35)

Audio problem: When Joey calls Espa's mins reading a scam, Espa says, "You're just jealous of my telepathic powers." When he says this, his face can be seen in the frame during the second half of the line, and his lips don't appear to move when he says the line. (00:07:32)

Continuity mistake: When Joey is about to summon his first monster, Espa says, "You'll have to think of a different move." There are two wide shots when he says this; one from his side of the field and the other from Joey's side of the field. The background extras appear to swap places between the two shots. (00:06:13)
Espa Roba: The ESP Duelist - Part 1 - S2-E9
Plot hole: Joey attempts to summon Giltia the D Knight, but is unable to because it is a Level 5 monster and monsters with that are at least Level 5 require the player to sacrifice one of their monsters that are already on the field. This is a new rule that Kaiba implemented as part of the tournament which Joey didn't know about, but in the previous episode, he watched Yugi sacrifice a monster to summon Summoned Skull, so he should have known this.
