Evil Spirit of the Diving Pool - S1-E18
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the flashback from three years prior, Miyuki pounds the top of Hajime's head with a righteous fist. At the cut, he has his left hand up, while in the first shot it was lowered. (00:03:15)
3rd Mar 2022
Deliberate mistake: It's a humorous twist that Randy's killing is covered up by some random guys passing by with a ghetto blaster, but there was dead silence when Randy was talking earlier; not being in frame does not block soundwaves. (01:05:15)
3rd Mar 2022
Continuity mistake: When Randy is jumpscared by the guy playing football (something the killer couldn't predict), in the aerial shot the football dude is standing on the crossroad that is fully in the shade instead of partially in the sun like before the cut. The two girls Randy harassed are also gone from their spot, which means in 5 seconds they packed their books and stuff they had laid out in front of them. (01:03:30)
3rd Mar 2022
Continuity mistake: When the cameraman says he's "one verb away from vacating these premises", there's a blonde with a green backpack walking left to right in the background. The same blonde appears two shots later behind Randy, who is further to the left than Joel. (01:01:45)
3rd Mar 2022
Character mistake: Dewey says that it does not make sense that the killer, who at this point is characterized as a copycat of the Woodsboro team, attacked Sidney. Actually that's exactly what happened in the first Scream; after Casey and her boyfriend, Ghostface tried to kill Sidney. Dewey should know since he was the first responder on that call doing a puppet show at the door, and it's not only amazing that he wouldn't remember, but also that nobody corrects him and that they haven't run a timetable of the previous events at all. Of course in the end the pattern does not matter just as Dewey later says, but up to that point, the killer was following it to a T, so they are reaching the conclusion too early and against the evidence. (01:01:00)
3rd Mar 2022
Continuity mistake: During the Top Gun scene, Derek steps on the table where Portia De Rossi and the other sorority elites are having lunch. You see her fetch from the table the Pepsi can, but then she holds it at a different height at the cut. (00:48:15)
3rd Mar 2022
Other mistake: Ghostface tries to kill Sidney by the front door of the sorority house, and the pendulum clock shows it's 12:10, which fits also the timeline with CiCi's murder. Running away from him though, Sid passes by a mantle in the party room that has a clock that strikes 10 to 7. (00:39:40)
3rd Mar 2022
Continuity mistake: When Sidney answers the phone at the sorority, look at her sheer top under the jacket; reaches almost the neck (you can backtrack the moment when it rose from its optimal fit; she put the jacket in the same take and that ended up pulling the underneath garment a bit). At the next cut, the top rests lower as it should. (00:39:20)
3rd Mar 2022
Continuity mistake: On the couch, Cici asks the friendly voice "Who are you calling for?" Notice the way she holds the phone, and how her middle finger is on top of the last two fingers. It's tucked back in the close-up ("What if I say goodbye?"). (00:30:25)

Young Kidaichi's Murder: File 2 - S2-E2
Stupidity: When Akechi tells his men to look for Kindaichi in all the possible places where a person might hide, Kindaichi with his bright yellow shirt is behind a metal staircase 2 meters away from him - a metal staircase with gaps between the steps, and some of the policemen are facing him. (00:20:15)
Continuity mistake: When Ponty wishes Miss Jones luck at the bowling tournament, she stops and turns. She also happens to hold her notepad in completely different ways in the two shots. (00:36:50)
3rd Mar 2022
Factual error: The movie begins on March 1978 (date on the bank cheques that Patrizia signs). She meets Maurizio at the party that evening and, after 2 years they are married. All good, except for the fact that in reality, Maurizio Gucci and Patrizia Reggiani's wedding took place on October 27,1972.

Murderous Intent of Below Freezing 15 Degrees - S2-E9
Plot hole: Kindaichi's explanation of the trick does not make sense; he says the culprit put the towels outside to freeze in the bin, but if they were frozen solid they would have been impossible to reshape easily and quickly, and if they were already in the shape they wanted, that would have been just too big for the bin to contain. (00:14:25)
3rd Mar 2022
Murderous Intent of Below Freezing 15 Degrees - S2-E9
Continuity mistake: During the phone call, when the "two months" are mentioned, the shadow on the pillow changes between shots. (00:18:20)
3rd Mar 2022
Ghost Passenger Ship Murder Case: File 4 - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: When the culprit shouts that their father didn't drink, Yuki is holding the magazine in the opposite way compared to before; spine on the right vs spine on the left. (00:07:10)
3rd Mar 2022
Ghost Passenger Ship Murder Case: File 4 - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: Kindaichi references the magazine "Area" that contains the article about the Orient accident. The headline has a different look compared to the previous episode. (00:04:30)
3rd Mar 2022
Ghost Passenger Ship Murder Case: File 4 - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: When the real culprit is revealed at the beginning of the episode, the position of the knife changes, and the hostage's whole face is drawn inconsistently. (00:02:40)
2nd Mar 2022
Ghost Passenger Ship Murder Case: File 3 - S2-E7
Continuity mistake: When Kindaichi finds the victim at sunset, he is in front of the other two people in the long shot, but behind the one on the left in the closer angle. (00:12:25)
2nd Mar 2022
The Campground 'Bizarre' Case - S1-E17
Continuity mistake: When Kindaichi tries to escape and Miyuki stops him in his tracks exposing the reason why he's leaving, the cup in front of her is positioned with the handle facing right. When we see the cup again, it faces the opposite direction. (00:21:20)
