Continuity mistake: When Tenderheart and the other Care Bears begin sailing through a canyon in the Forest of Feelings, nobody is standing on the cloud Clipper's bow where the star-o-scope is mounted. But moments later after Tenderheart says, "We're going for a ride!", Wish Bear is suddenly there at the bow holding on for dear life as the waters start to rage. (00:42:45)

Continuity mistake: As the cloud clipper is racing through a canyon in the Forest of Feelings, Tenderheart Bear says "We're going for a ride!" Here, the steering wheel is shown. It's composed of four posts running through the center of the hub, each having two handles on either side of the rim. At any rate, the Care Bears soon enter a dark cave and must slow to a crawl. Moments later, Bright Heart Raccoon directs the clipper away from a big rock. When he says "Whew, that was close!" take a look over his left shoulder and notice how the steering wheel now has a completely different fashion - there are only handles mounted around the rim, and no posts run through it at all. (00:42:45)

Continuity mistake: When the Care Bears and Cousins are sailing down the river, Tenderheart exclaims "We're going for a ride!" In the next shot, Bright Heart Raccoon can be seen perched on the ship's helm. However, he isn't supposed to appear there until the ship exits the cave. (00:42:50)

Continuity mistake: When Tenderheart is navigating the cloud clipper, Lotsa Heart warns of a cave nearby. As they make way through the opening and slow to a crawl, nobody is anywhere near the helm. (00:42:55)

Continuity mistake: As the cloud clipper approaches the far end of the cave, Funshine and Share Bear can be seen at the starboard front and back, respectively. After Funshine says "I see light up ahead," the two bears have changed positions. (00:43:30)

Other mistake: As the cloud clipper nears a waterfall, Tenderheart orders the other Care Bears on deck. Here they use "stares" to recreate the images on their tummies, forming a balloon that floats everyone to safety. Notice there are eight bears huddled together. When Tenderheart gives the cue, only seven images rise to the top of the mast. It turns out that Champ Bear's trophy is missing. (00:43:55)

Continuity mistake: Lotsa Heart Elephant is briefly drawn without her pink tail in a shot right before the cloud clipper drifts over the waterfall's edge. (00:44:20)

ryguy_1983

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Tenderheart's cloud clipper approaches a waterfall, the other Care Bears team up to make a red balloon which carries it to safety. In the first distant view of the clipper being lifted, Lotsa Heart Elephant is standing near the helm; but in the next shot when Tenderheart says "Well done," he is now looking down below over the starboard side with Bright Heart Raccoon.

Continuity mistake: As the Care Bears "stare" at the evil spirit bird, Friend Bear can be seen on the Cloud Boat and the cliff at the same time! (00:45:00)

Continuity mistake: In an attempt to save Kim and Jason from the evil spirit's bird, Playful Heart Monkey climbs the nearest tree, grabs hold of a green vine and swings right into the bird's path. In the next shot, watch as Playful Heart comes into view on the right side of the screen. Here, the vine has changed its color to purple all of a sudden. (00:45:30)

Continuity mistake: As the evil spirit's hawk circles Kim and Jason, Secret Bear and Friend Bear can be seen standing several feet apart near the cliff's edge. But between shots, they move within inches of each other. (00:45:55)

Continuity mistake: Once the Care Bears aboard the cloud clipper defeat the evil spirit's bird, it begins sailing towards shore. From back to front, the clipper's rudder is colored red, green and yellow. But after Secret Bear and Friend Bear descend from the cliff, the next shot of the clipper shows a reversed color sequence on the rudder. (00:47:10)

Other mistake: When the cloud clipper runs aground to greet the remaining Care Bear Cousins, Tenderheart slides to shore over a translucent rainbow bridge to have an exchange with Kim and Jason. Just as he says "I know exactly what you mean," the camera pans left and Love-a-Lot Bear is visible near the bridge missing her figure from the neck down. (00:47:30)

Continuity mistake: Once the cloud clipper docks opposite the tunnel's entrance, Braveheart jumps onto the pier and crosses his arms. But from the next angle his arms are suddenly crossed differently. (00:51:30)

Continuity mistake: After Tenderheart Bear orders the other Care Bears and Cousins to seek out Nicholas in the carnival, Love-a-Lot and Gentle Heart sneak up to the trailer - from which he suddenly emerges in a fit of crazed laughter. In this shot, notice how the grounds are clean. But once Nicholas makes his way to the trash can hoping to find some ingredients for his spell, the ground is suddenly covered with litter. Only moments later when Love-a-Lot and Gentle Heart are hanging from the sign, look beneath the trailer: somehow the trash has managed to disappear. (00:52:30)

ryguy_1983

Continuity mistake: After Nicholas springs from the trailer to search for magic spell ingredients, he runs over to the nearest garbage can and starts picking. Behind him is a gazebo, and its staircase is located three openings from the right. But later on when Nicholas and Fetuccini are outside talking about friends, take another look at the same gazebo: the staircase has moved all by itself - now it is located five spaces from the right. (00:52:40 - 01:06:30)
