Other mistake: Misaki's dad just arrived at the stadium, and seeing his son play, he strokes his beard with a satisfied look. Problem is, he's still standing and the hand that rubs his chin was holding a toolbox he did not have time to put down (or anywhere to place it on, for that matter). (00:10:40)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Continuity mistake: Taro Misaki's flashback starts with him juggling the ball as he wears a pink shirt and black pants. The pants change to green in the next shot, but even more surprising, he gets blue hair. (00:09:45)
17th Jan 2021
Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Continuity mistake: Mr. "OONN", the goalkeeper of Urabe's team, gets to wear a uniform completely different from his teammate's, but we saw him walk into the stadium exactly with the same tracksuit as the others 2 episodes earlier. And that he's wearing again in this same episode after the decisive goal. (00:07:05 - 00:13:45)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Continuity mistake: When Wakabayashi dives and catches the cross as it's still high in the air, Misaki and Tsubasa are to his right, then to his left. (00:05:15)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Other mistake: After his ankle injury from the previous episode, Ryo writhes in pain touching...his knee. (00:03:00)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Factual error: In this episode we have a random person showing up and being admitted to the team and playing as substitute on the spot, with nobody protesting. He puts on the (sweat-soaked, presumably!) uniform of another player and just goes ahead without any check from the referee or assistants. Given that the match is between two schools without necessarily having the official football federation involved, it is understandable, but they do not even ask the opposing coach if they are OK with something so obviously outside of any established rule. And they are still playing in a packed stadium, with official referees and even a radio commentator! Only in anime.

Other mistake: The linesman's flag as he hands the ball to Taki is unreasonably tiny. (00:18:45)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Other mistake: After the first extra time, only 8 players (plus the keeper and Ryo) are back to the bench for all the pep talk and chat. (00:16:55)
17th Jan 2021
Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Audio problem: When Urabe gets in the field to ask to be a substitute, western dubs (verified in the Italian and spanish dubs) have Ryo (or "Bruce") ask him who he is. Ryo knows perfectly well who Urabe is, and they played a friendly match just a couple episodes before too. (00:06:45)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Continuity mistake: Wakabayashi is still on all fours, dejected after being bested by Tsubasa. He lost his baseball cap parrying the shot in the right corner, but now both his beret and his wounded pride are towards the opposite side of the goal. (00:05:00)
17th Jan 2021
Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Continuity mistake: Ishizaki kicks the air to show that the injury is no biggie, and then clutches the injured ankle. Which was the right ankle, but his hand is on the left one. (00:04:50)
17th Jan 2021
Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
Factual error: The mall robbery happens on July 1st, as shown on the newspaper clipping Diana finds, which is coherent with the events depicted in the movie (they rob the mall on the 1st, the day after the stone is at the Smithsonian and Diana and Barbara bond over dinner, then on the 3rd Maxwell arrives, grabs the stone at the evening party, and he is already super powerful the afternoon he takes off for Cairo). Problem is, July the 1st was a Sunday, and not just the mall, but pretty much any other store downtown is open, and similarly since it's the 4th, financial operations wouldn't be happening (although in this case you could always argue that we deal with wishes - but it's an extra layer of implausibility). (01:04:05)

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
Other mistake: In the end credits, two actors are credited as "Camaro driver" and "Camaro passenger." The sports car that appeared in the movie (without a mandatory front license plate) was however a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. (00:11:35 - 02:26:00)
16th Jan 2021
Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
Other mistake: Flying the jet plane, Steve is surprised by the lights in the sky and needs Diana to explain to him that it's fireworks and it's the 4th of July. Fireworks are something that has existed for centuries, and Steve himself was the one who found the plane ticket for the 4th commenting "If this date is right." (01:11:30)
Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.
Suggested correction: He didn't realise it was the 4th of July, he's just surprised to see fireworks, not that he doesn't know what they are. The date on the plane ticket he just forgot.
He asks "What's that?" when the fireworks are visible and can't really be mistaken as anything else, and he himself was fully aware of the date before they headed to the hangar, but Diana says "The 4th" and he asks "The 4th of July?" like it's the first time he even thinks which month is it. If you listen to it, the emphasis is on the question in the delivery of the line as in "It's the 4th of July?", not as in "Oh, the 4th of July, right!"
She says it's the fourth and he instantly realises it's fireworks for the fourth of July. There is no indication whatsoever that Steve doesn't know what fireworks are and your movie mistake suggests the makers intended Steve not to know what fireworks are, which is ridiculous. Your interpretation of the scene is just wrong.
He does not instantly realise it's fireworks for the fourth of July. She has to reassure him that "oh it's OK, it's just fireworks", then she says "The 4th, of course" and he replies, as I said "The 4th of July?" with huge emphasis on the surprise. Sorry if you find my interpretation of the scene 'just wrong', but if they did not have his character call attention on the date literally 5 minutes earlier in the movie (it is a fact), I would have not reported it just for the fireworks part alone (which is more subjective, we read differently, and I respect your position).

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
Continuity mistake: Max (Pedro Pascal) wishes to magically remove Simon from his path, and the Feds arrive. He asks one of them for information who shoos him off. Notice that two more agents are joining. Max then walks back to the entrance and those same agents are walking again, and when a few seconds later he's outside looking in, they are still just barely now joining the others. (00:55:40)

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
Continuity mistake: Max approaches Dr. Minerva on the stairs at the party. When he tells her not to accept "the limitations of nature", look behind her at the people coming down the stairs; there's a very characteristic man with a moustache, tan sunglasses and greasy hair. Seconds pass, and when Minerva chuckles at Max's remarks, there's that same guy again descending that same flight of stairs. (00:42:50)

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
Factual error: Diana decides to attend the party Lord invited her to. The music played as she makes her way through the various sleazeballs is "Welcome to the Pleasuredome" from Frankie Goes to Hollywood's eponymous album, which was released in 1984 yes, but just on October 29th, and almost a whole year later as a single. The movie takes places around 4th of July. (00:41:05)

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
Continuity mistake: Gal Gadot just bumped into Kristen Wiig. She walks off and Natasha Rothwell (Carol) asks her if she knows her insignificant co-worker. When Wiig says "Remember you hired me? Started last week?" she has both hands clasped together at the briefcase in one shot, while in the reverse she's pointing at herself and only then her hands join supporting the case. (00:21:35)
16th Jan 2021
Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
Continuity mistake: Minerva is on the floor picking up papers and trying to get her colleagues' attention. When they walk past her, she changes the hand she is using to pick the paper far away from her, and she has suddenly an extra paper standing conspicuously still vertically into the briefcase. (00:20:25)
