Starring: Arihiro Hase

Genres: Animated, Drama, Family, Sport

Mega-Shot - S2-E11

Other mistake: The Musashi team are ready for the kick off. But the aerial view shows the teams in positions incompatible with the situation; not every player is in their own half, and even more noticeably, there are no players by the center mark, in fact nowhere near. (00:03:05)

Mega-Shot - S2-E11

Factual error: The whole "Did the referee blow his whistle because of the goal, or because the match is over" isn't possible; the referee blows his whistle three times for the end of the match, not just a single time. (However, it should be noted that technically it's a universally adopted convention but not a hard-coded rule). (00:05:50)

Mega-Shot - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: The Nankatsu players reach Misugi, on his knees and helped out by the goalkeeper and the manager. The keeper is not wearing gloves in close-up, he is in the next shot. (00:06:40)

Mega-Shot - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: In the hotel room, the boys talk about Misugi and his condition. Taki is wearing a white tee and red pants, but in the next panning shot of the room he is wearing blue jeans. (00:11:00)

Mega-Shot - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: Yayoi sits by Tsubasa as she tells him Jun's sad story. When she says "He might never be able to play football again", behind the two there are already more than the 4 steps they sit on in other shots. (00:13:55)

Mega-Shot - S2-E11

Other mistake: Jun's parents can't see the kids by the goal, only their shadows, but they are positively unfazed when Tsubasa is celebrated loudly and dangerously acting as substitute for him (which is the reason why Tsubasa is replacing Jun in the celebration to begin with).

Mega-Shot - S2-E11

Other mistake: Throughout the game, the announcer has no clue about Misugi's heart problem - which is not publicly known anyway - yet at the end of the match he makes a comment about it.

Where Is the Rival? - S1-E5

Trivia: When Sanae starts waving the flag she made for Tsubasa, in the background you can see a couple of grossly disproportional characters most likely drawn as a joke by some animator, and even the Road Runner. (00:14:55)
