Continuity mistake: Jaden activates the spell card Mirage of Nightmare, and then places two cards face down. Later in the scene, Jaden activates the trap card Mirror Force, so when that leaves the field, only one other card is face down on Jaden's side of the field (not counting Mirage of Nightmare). But a couple of seconds later, when the Shadow Duelist brings Terrorking Archfiend back to the field, Jaden has three face-down cards, even though he should only have one card face down and one card already activated. (00:02:12 - 00:03:36)
