The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Tintin is searching the decks, Snowy starts scratching his paws on a red door so Tintin would come over to it. As Tintin walks over to it, we see it has a door knob. In the next shot, it just has a regular handle. (00:10:00)

The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Just as the scene at the docks starts, Tintin stops by a rope and looks up to notice the Karaboudjan. In this shot, the ropes are located right beside him, only a foot away. Allan and one of the crew members then begin conversation and the angle changes, showing Tintin far in the background, but the ropes are nowhere to be seen. (00:08:00)

Revealing mistake: When Tintin arrives at the docks, he stops to look at the Karaboudjan and the shot pans over to it. Just before the shot begins to pan over to it, there is a rope next to them which isn't drawn correctly. There are three uncolored dots on it. (00:08:00)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Audio problem: When Thomson and Thompson are phoning Tintin to tell him about Daws and the Karaboudjan, Tintin hangs up and makes for the docks. Thompson then says "He hung up" and Thomson starts tutting. Neither of their lips move during this line or the tutting. (00:07:50)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Other mistake: When Tintin is knocked on his head by the third bad guy, the shot cuts to an overview angle that shows the bad guys making for their car. Two of them bad guys, (the one with the club in his right hand and the one with the teal jumper) just vanish into the car as the enter. They are shown running but are never shown crouching down or reaching for the door handle or anything relating to actually entering the car. (00:06:40)

Revealing mistake: After the third bad guy whacks Tintin on the back of his head, the other two go to make for the car and escape. As the bad guy in the purple jumper runs, his foot is shown protruding through Tintin's foot. (00:06:40)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: Just after Tintin has beaten up the two bad guys, he gets hit on the head and lands on the ground on his stomach with Snowy wrapped around his arm. There is an error in the animation that occurs during the shot. Snowy is visible under Tintin, but then Snowy's head is shown going part way above Tintin's jumper. (00:06:35)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1

The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: After the two bad guys have knocked out Mr. Kuraki, they take him to their car and place him in the back seat. The back left door is already closed, and one of the bad guys closes the back right door. After the third bad guy hits Tintin over the head, an overview shot shows the back doors open. The third bad guy was shown exiting the driver's door, not using the back doors. (00:06:00 - 00:06:40)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: When Tintin is in his apartment and overhears his neighbor yell out "Help! Kidnappers!", Tintin runs over to his apartment balcony, to see two people tackling Kuraki. The car right next to them, at this point, is tilting. (00:05:55)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: After Tintin has noticed Snowy gnawing on the bone, Tintin says "Let's just darken these letters and see what comes up". During the shot of him darkening the letters, the area of the letters on the wrapper that were darkened is differently animated than the area that hasn't been darkened yet. For example, the area of the letters on the wrapper that had been darkened is a dark white color. But the area that hadn't been darkened is a bright white color. This goes for the areas that weren't darkened by the pencil at all. (00:05:30)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Tintin is back at his apartment reading the wrapper from the Crabe Extra tin with "Karaboudjan" written on it. Just before he says "Yes, there's something definitely written here", he has lifted the wrapper off the table with his thumb placed on the front and his four other fingers placed on the back. In the next shot, the wrapper is now flat on the table and his four fingers are now placed on the front. (00:05:15)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Tintin is back at his apartment reading over the wrapper, the only things on his desk are the wrapper and pencil in the shot where he says "Only I can't read it" and the desk is also in front of the chair Tintin is sitting at. Later on, after Tintin returns to his apartment after the three bad guys have kidnapped Mr. Kuraki, a phone has suddenly appeared on Tintin's desk and the desk is now on the left of the chair. (00:05:20 - 00:07:15)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Tintin and Snowy are at the apartment examining the wrapper, the word "Karaboudjan" is clearly written on the wrapper. When Tintin goes to darken the wrapper, the word is now hardly visible and has to be darkened in order for Tintin to see it properly. (00:05:15)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: After Tintin has finished searching through the garbage man's bag, Tintin then leaves and the man is holding it with only his right hand. In the next shot, as Snowy takes out a bone from the bag, the man is suddenly holding it with both hands. (00:04:45)
Chosen answer: It is a pill that makes alcohol taste disgusting.
