Episode #1.7 - S1-E7

Other mistake: When Tsuda and Yamada are in Hayashi's office, Hayashi takes out a sword and executes Yamada. Based on the length of the sword, and the distance between where Hayashi was standing and where Yamada was kneeling, there is no way the sword could have killed Yamada. Tsuda was in between the two and the sword wouldn't have been long enough to reach Yamada given how far apart he and Hayahshi were. (00:17:10)

Season 1 generally

Other mistake: The character Su-mi is depicted as an adolescent girl in her teens. She is introduced in Episode 2, which is set in 1902. Episodes 2 through 22 take place between 1902 and 1904, then a 3-year time jump occurs, meaning Episodes 22 through 24 take place in 1907. Also, the final time we see her, she is shown as a member of the Righteous Army which takes place two years after 1907 (1909). Yet during this 7-year timespan, she shows no signs of ageing.
