Escape from Luna II - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: Amuro is explaining to his cellmates the key of the Gundam's combat abilities. He is sitting on the floor with Kai, but as the angle changes, the back of the sofa in the background is at an height that would make sense only if they were sitting on a chair. (00:10:40)

Escape from Luna II - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: When Bright turns towards Captain Paolo Cassius to tell him about the success of their operation, his three-way front tuft of hair is curled one way, the opposite way in the close-up. (00:21:20)

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.
