The Legend of Zelda

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: As Zelda is being two faced with Link when she is awestruck by Prince Facade, she tries to introduce Link and has him stand up. Her right arm is bent as she gestures to Link to stand, but her left arm is down by her side straight. The next shot, her left arm is suddenly bent, with her fist balled. (00:34:00)

Continuity mistake: Link lassos the Octorok with a rope. The Octorok then drags Link out of the village and they meet up with Prince Facade. The Octorok still has the rope on it as it fires a blast at Facade. Then it picks up Link and suddenly the rope has vanished. It is nowhere to be seen after the Octorok is zapped also. (00:33:35)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: While dragging Link behind it, the Octorok comes across Prince Facade. The first two shots showing the Prince on his horse, the horse is facing to the right. But then the Octorok fires a blast at Prince Facade and suddenly the horse is facing left as he deflects the blast with his shield. (00:33:20)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: As Link is launched through the air towards the Tin Suits, it shows the Tin Suits making a V shape with their formation. Watch the one on the left of the guy at the bottom of the V. He has his body facing left. The shot changes to Link landing and now it is facing right. (00:30:40)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: Earlier shots show that the house where the wheelbarrow is has another house beside it on the right side, a little distance away from it. After the Octorok has shown up, there is a shot of Zelda by the wheelbarrow house. The camera pans to the right over to the Octorok. During the pan shot, that second house has vanished. (00:32:00)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: Link knocks one of the Tin Suits to the ground after seeing the ruby appear. He steps over one of the Tin Suit's legs going to get the ruby. As he does, the Tin Suit's legs are both down flat. But the shot changes to a close up before it trips Link, and suddenly its knees are up. (00:31:35)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: One of the Tin Suits throws its spear at Link and knocks Link's sword into the air. It comes down and stabs the top of a house sticking up. The distance from it and the top of the roof looks to be about two feet, give or take a few inches. But the next shot from a distance, the distance between the sword and the top of the house is now about half that. (00:31:10)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: The house the wheelbarrow is by has two windows on the side it is on when it is first shown. One on the first floor and one on the second floor. But in many of the later shots, the house is shown to have two windows on the first floor. It is most obvious in the shot after the Octorok shows up and you see Zelda standing by the house from a distance. (00:32:00)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: As the Tin Suits show up, several shots show a wheelbarrow next to a house. There is a window on the second floor where the barrel is tied up. The first shot shows the window open. Then the shot where the Tin Suits are advancing, the window is shut. (00:30:30)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: Link asks "what about me?" when Prince Facade offers a ride on his horse to Zelda. When he does, Link is visibly dirty, having dirt patches on his face, hands, and clothes, as well as some tattered clothing. The shot cuts to Zelda and Facade with Zelda saying he'll be fine, and then back to Link. Now Link is in perfect condition, no dirt or tattering. Link attempts to pick up the ruby which Facade beats him to, and Link stands up. Now he is dirty and tattered again. (00:34:30)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: The Octorok arrives and throws Link through a barn, busting a hole in the wood. The hole is near the back edge of the barn. Moments later when Link comes back holding a board, the hole is now in the center of the barn, and much bigger. A few shots later and the hole is totally different again. (00:32:25)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When Ganon discovers the return of Prince Facade, he is talking to his Evil Jar with his back turned. When he turns around, his skin is a yellowish green color, not his usual brown tan color. His robes are all their normal colors so it is not a lighting effect. He also retains this strange coloring once he teleports to his throne. He was his normal color on his throne in previous episodes. (00:35:25)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: After Prince Facade saves Link from the Octorok, Link tries to shake his hand. As he does, he is literally just an arm's length away from the Prince. A few shots later, without any of them moving, it shows the three of them, Link, Zelda, and Facade, all together standing. The distance between Prince Facade and Link has now doubled. (00:34:15)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: After Prince Facade rescues Link from the Octorok and then Zelda humiliates Link, Link reaches his hand out to shake with Prince Facade. The Prince refuses the hand shake because Link's hands are dirty. The close up of Link's hand shows it covered in dirt. But the distance shot of it before and after he reaches out show no dirt on it. (00:34:10)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: As the Tin Suits advance on Link and Zelda, the shot showing the whole group has a wheelbarrow by the building. There is a rope going up from it to a barrel tied up in the air against the house. By the angle of the rope going up and away from the wheelbarrow, and the relative position of the barrel against the side of the house in relation to the position of the wheelbarrow, you can tell the barrel is not above the wheelbarrow, but tied up in the air behind it. But when Link charges the wagon and slices the rope to use like a human catapult, the barrel falls straight down right into the wagon. (00:30:35)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: The ground opens up and shows a bunch of Tin Suits marching out. The shot where Link takes off towards the wheelbarrow shows at least 8 Tin Suits marching. Difficult to tell exactly how many, but I see 8 pairs of legs in the group. When Link flies through the air towards them, there are only 5 that can be seen. Link fights 5 and 4 of them are dispatched by him and Zelda. There is just 1 left as the Octorok arrives. That still is only 5 Tin Suits when at least 8 were seen moments before. 3 have just disappeared. (00:30:30 - 00:32:05)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: While fighting the Tin Suits, Link kicks two of them into a wall. They hit next to a barred window and the wall crumbles. This shot shows the inside of the building as light, bright, and white. But the immediately following shot from by Link shows the inside as dark and blue. (00:30:55)

Quantom X

The White Knight - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When the Tin Suits arrive, there is an orange wheelbarrow sitting next to a house close to Link and Zelda. In the shot showing the Tin Suits marching towards our heroes before Link runs to it, the wheelbarrow is about half the size it was, if not smaller. (00:30:30)

Show generally

Continuity mistake: Right in the beginning of the title sequence, Zelda and Link walk into a room and see the Triforce of Wisdom. Zelda even says it is the Triforce of Wisdom. It is green. But throughout the entire show in the episodes, the Triforce of Wisdom is shown as blue. (00:00:05)
