Time, Be Still - S1-E14

Other mistake: After the removal of the second bomb, the squad captain checks how much time is left till the explosion; 8 minutes, he says...as the minute hand turns and stops on 8, with an animation that does not make sense. (00:17:20)

Time, Be Still - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: The Zaku hits the Medea in the empty cargo container drilling two sizeable holes, but when the aircraft flies past it there are no bullet holes in sight anymore. (00:10:00)

Sammo

Coming Home - S1-E13

Audio problem: The first refugee to greet Amuro has a male voice (original version, but also English dub), but when you look at the figure, it's kinda rounded in the chest and in the next shot when just the legs are in sight, just match the positions of those around Amuro and it's quite clear that 'he' is the one wearing a skirt. (00:10:00)

Coming Home - S1-E13

Other mistake: The car waiting for Kamaria at the end of the episode as Amuro and Bright salute her, is drawn with or without glass in the windows. (00:21:00)

Sammo

Coming Home - S1-E13

Character mistake: Kamaria Ray thinks back of her son shooting at the Zeon troopers with a mental image that is wrong; Amuro was not shooting from the bed, but from the door. (00:15:20 - 00:19:20)

Sammo

Coming Home - S1-E13

Plot hole: Amuro flies the Core Fighter to the refugee camp. Taking a plane to get just across a hill is already kinda a headshaker, especially with White Base being short on resources, including fuel that is an issue in this very episode.Anyway, he lands it in the middle of the camp, and the people there tell him to please hide it. Later in the episode, we see that Amuro indeed hid it, in the middle of some woods, covering it perfectly in branches and other things. How in the world did he get the fighter there and on his own did all the camouflage work on the huge thing, is a prodigy of off-camera work.

Coming Home - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: When the Zeon soldier enters the refugee camp structure, looks around and starts questioning the kid, the people in the background change from shot to shot. (00:13:50)

Sammo

Coming Home - S1-E13

Plot hole: The logistics of the episode don't really make sense; Amuro's home village is held by (literally) a handful of Earth soldiers cut from their main force and that spend their time getting drunk and acting as occupation force, but Zeon has a full base (again, literally, almost) next door that sends reconnaissance troops and even aircraft to check for any activity at the refugee camp. There's no reason why the undisciplined and free soldiers would stay in such a dangerous position where they could be wiped out by overwhelming forces anytime, nor why Zeon would keep a pocket of the enemy forces that they can crush with ridiculous ease.

Sammo

Coming Home - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: Amuro looking from the window sees 4 drunk soldiers in his living room. Two of them tumble on the ground, where items like a helmet, a plate and empty liquor bottles lay around. One of the soldiers even has a bottle in his left hand he is still drinking from after the fall. When he enters the room and turns the radio off, all those items have disappeared. (00:04:20)

Coming Home - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: Sayla and Mirai are chillin' on the beach, sunbathing. They even comment on the sun and how light comes from just one direction as opposed to what they are used to in space and the colonies. Kai with his boombox passes them by asking about Amuro, and suddenly they both (Mirai in particular, under the parasol) have big shadows over them. (00:02:45)

Sammo

The Threat of Zeon - S1-E12

Other mistake: During the first phase of the battle with the Zeon forces, in particular in close-up when Amuro botches the landing from the catapult and drags the mobile suit belly down onto the rocks, the V shaped head ornament is entirely red, instead of being red in the middle section and white in the fins. (00:15:40)

Sammo

The Threat of Zeon - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: Bright is sitting in his quarters, exhausted. Mirai enters his room, and he zips his uniform up; it is specifically shown that the zipper goes past the undershirt. When Sayla sends the alert from the bridge, Bright jumps up and answers with the tank top showing. (00:07:00)

Sammo

The Threat of Zeon - S1-E12

Other mistake: The three comic relief kids burst into the bridge with hoover. The floor they are cleaning is a single smooth surface, but when Bright apologizes to them, they are standing on the only section with tiles. (00:06:40)

Sammo

The Threat of Zeon - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: Amuro gets up from the floor when he's been working on the Gundam backup computer. Going by the floor boards, the manual and the trays with the tools have moved around between shots. (00:05:45)

Sammo

Icelina- Love's Remains - S1-E11

Other mistake: Amuro's Gundam changes relative size compared to the Gaw. The most egregious size problem happens when Amuro sticks the mace weapon into the Gaw, and somehow the staff used as weapon by an 18-meters tall robot, with a big energy attachment at the end, is small enough to run between two soldiers in a narrow corridor. (00:18:30)

Sammo

Icelina- Love's Remains - S1-E11

Audio problem: When Char is chased away by Bright, Hayato and Kai shooting at him (even if he's a skilled commando and is running from a couple teenagers), the gunshots of the White Base officers produce 6 detonations in total but many more light blasts. (00:16:00)

Sammo

Icelina- Love's Remains - S1-E11

Plot hole: If all it takes is a missile from a Luggun (a standard recon plane) to completely KO White Base killing the controls and engine, there's no way the battleship made it throughout the countless assaults it was previously in. Char hits it knowing it will have that kind of effect, and yet there's no rationale given (for instance, a critical Death Star-like weak point has been found?) for him to be able to just do that, nor this engine killshot being used again after.

Sammo

Icelina- Love's Remains - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: Sayla hands Bright the dispatch from the Federation. Bright takes it with his left hand, turns around and walks away still with the message in the same hand - but at the cut, it's in his right hand. (00:10:30)

Sammo

Icelina- Love's Remains - S1-E11

Audio problem: In the throne room of Zeon, Dozle opens the big portal door with one hand, and it makes a creaking sound as if it were a small wooden door of a broom closet. The door itself is closed in the following shots, with no sound heard for it. (00:04:00)
