Other mistake: One of the questions Kraken Isaac can pose to the player is "Who are the other two?" It is obviously missing the first part; other two what?

Tecmo World Wrestling
Other mistake: Both in the instruction booklet and in-game, Mark Rose's finishing move is mistranslated as "Northern Right Suplex." The wrestling move is called Northern Lights Suplex.
27th Apr 2020
Bleach: Immortal Soul
Other mistake: Whoever did the English localization doesn't believe in commas (often long sentences go by without any), but sometimes errs on the other end of the spectrum. For instance, the intro of the game says; "Maybe it's because we're entrusted with the live of the living, but for as long as I remember." Full stop. It breaks the sentence, that continues in the next screen. The whole translation is full of examples of random punctuation throughout the game.

Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Other mistake: Rick and TC are at the counter of the Chinese joint when they hear a bang and a car speeding off. The noises are almost simultaneous, which means the lone assailant exploded a gunshot from their car while they were at the wheel. Uncanny coordination, recovery time and reflexes, contrary to the parking custodian in a booth we see there, who reacts to the car passing by, but was unfazed and with their back turned after a shotgun has been supposedly been fired meters away from him. (00:28:25)

Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Forty Years from Sand Island - S3-E17
Other mistake: Hank Palmer appears in the closing credits as "Hank Sorenso", but his last name is pronounced by everyone (and logically so) as "Sorenson", and Rick says his first name is Fred. (00:31:00 - 00:48:00)
26th Apr 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Other mistake: Marsha Mackenzie is supposed to be competent with certain aspects of men care; she comes from a wealthy family and she has been taking care of the men in her family all her life. And Magnum does show up at the Kamehameha club with a nicely done knot on his tie. When we actually see the actress tie that same not metaphorical knot though, it's very clumsy, crooked and differs in between shots (it's also done on an unbuttoned shirt).

Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Other mistake: During the game, Willie scores the 38-34 point according to the close-up of the electronic board, but in the wide angle when she actually shoots it, the score appears to be 30-31...from 30-30, which is odd, since it was a 2-point shot. (00:43:00)
25th Apr 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
The Arrow That Is Not Aimed - S3-E13
Other mistake: Magnum mispronounces the word 'seppuku' calling it it 'seppuki', prompting Higgins to correct him. He plays the role of the usual Westerner who is unfamiliar with the word and concept. But in the previous season, in 2-9, "The Taking of Dick McWilliams", not only he already had to deal with the prospect of ritual suicide, but he spontaneously mentioned the word himself ("Seppuku? You're willing to let your daughter kill herself?") with the other person simply mentioning a vague 'honorable thing to do'.

Death in Paradise (2011)
Other mistake: Days in the series seem sometime to go on for unusually long amounts of time. In this episode, there's the exact opposite; the murder happens at 10 AM (which already seems awfully late for the opening of an election), the police obviously are called right away, Jack and Florence go to the station to discuss the case, and then all of a sudden it's a wrap when Dwayne and JP get back there with their findings. Unless they have searched the businessman's residence for over 6 hours while Jack and Florence have been doing next to nothing at the station, it makes no sense.
23rd Apr 2020
The King of Fighters All Star
Other mistake: The railroad background seen at the beginning of KoF96 has a sign saying "Railroad CROSED."
23rd Apr 2020
Death in Paradise (2011)
Other mistake: Torey Martin says that he had an accident 5 months before, but the car crash evaluation is signed 31/07/2016. Not only it was a Sunday - unlikely day for the car shop to be working -, but that would put the events of the episode on January, contradicting the bank statements and what was established in previous episodes.
23rd Apr 2020
Death in Paradise (2011)
Other mistake: The police boat approaches the scenes of the crime coming in from the right, in a straight line, then in the proximity of the boat they turn around it, moving clockwise, passing in front of the bow and then to the left side. When they review the readings though, the icons show a completely different story, as if the police boat approached from behind and they boarded docking right at the stern. (00:04:40 - 00:08:00)
22nd Apr 2020
Death in Paradise (2011)
Other mistake: In the bank statement that Dwayne hands to the DI, there are cash withdrawals "from the past three months", with the past three months being January, February and...February, again. (00:20:30)
22nd Apr 2020
The King of Fighters All Star
Other mistake: The picture icon used to display King of Fighters 95 in Story mode (stage selection, waiting screens etc.) is, of all the possible teams, of a team that the protagonist does not meet at all in that year. By contrast, KoF 94 shows Kyo Kusanagi's team Japan and KoF 96 the Boss team led by Geese Howard, those are logical choices the protagonist interacts with and have influence on the story - the Psycho Soldiers team is not even mentioned in KoF 95.
17th Apr 2020
Saint Seiya: Awakening
Other mistake: During side-mission 10.1, the mythical botanical part used to bring Hyoga back from the dead goes from being a pistil, to a stamen - it could be object of debate which one is the right version, and if there's enough difference, but what surely is wrong is when the "Sacred Stamen" becomes for step 5 of the quest a "SCARED Stamen."
17th Apr 2020
Death in Paradise (2011)
Other mistake: The police force is searching the room of the deceased at the beginning of their investigation, Humphrey stands in front of a map of Saint Marie with the exclusion zones. The map though shows an island upside down compared to the map you could see in Episode 7 of season 2. (00:10:10)
17th Apr 2020
The King of Fighters All Star
Other mistake: At the beginning of the stage ending with the Women's team boss fight in KOF95, the protagonist says "I'm starting no matter how many times we beat them", missing presumably the words "to think." After beating up the goons, before the fight against King, the protagonist misses out on more words when they say "Yuri waved her at us", the safest assumption being that it was meant to be the "hand."
15th Apr 2020
Death in Paradise (2011)
Other mistake: In Naomi Walker's flashback when she gives Goodman her recounting of the evening, she gets the call from her husband when the phone is on the table - she got it with the phone in mid-air as she was standing already, instead. (00:11:10)
15th Apr 2020
Death in Paradise (2011)
Other mistake: JP tells the others that his fiancée cooked him a great meal for the two-month anniversary the other night. Suddenly, the three months anniversary is coming up and he proposes - but just a day passed.
15th Apr 2020
Death in Paradise (2011)
Other mistake: It is never clarified why the victim paid his brother; besides that, the bank statement has the date of April 29 and most facts point at the date being the one the episode is supposed to take place at. The investigative report though refers to a meeting happening in January - would hardly be something the aggressive legal team of the even more aggressive chef would keep on their desk for 3 months.
