Magical Express Murder Case: File 1 - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: The salad explodes and everyone is pretty rattled by this baffling predicament. Kindaichi is holding the phone with his index fingers outstretched; in the immediate close-up, he's clutching it with all fingers, and in the one next all of a sudden it's against his ear while the bomber is talking continuously.

Magical Express Murder Case: File 1 - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: When Noble asks Miyuki to be his assistant, there is a person with yellow clothes behind her. Their arm is down, straight. In the next shot, the person doesn't move, but when Miyuki changes position she reveals behind her the arm of the person, now bent. (00:09:30)

Magical Express Murder Case: File 1 - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: Throughout the four parter, in a variety of shots (it would be redundant to list them all), the collar of Akechi's orange shirt, which he wears over the brown jacket, disappears, showing just the brown jacket even when the detail of the collar would be visible - and sometimes it is even drawn but colored over wrong.

Murderous Intent of Below Freezing 15 Degrees - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: Everyone is waiting to know what happened to their fellow team member in the snow. Suzumori is leaning with her hand against the window on what turns out to be the right part of a double door. In the next shot where we can see that it's a double door, her hand is in the middle of it though. (00:07:40)

Murderous Intent of Below Freezing 15 Degrees - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: At dinner, look at the close-up of the table shown when they mention that the 'tune-up guy' fractured his leg last year. The guy with the blue sweater, Yukioka, has a full glass of orange juice in front of him and the spoon in the saucer is pointing towards him. Kindaichi butts in making everyone uncomfortable, and in the overhead view of the table the glass is nearly empty and the spoon turned around. (00:05:10)

Ghost Passenger Ship Murder Case: File 1 - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: Kenmochi dumps two heavy bags on top of Kindaichi, then picks up two suitcases himself; a pink one in his right hand, a dark blue one in his left. When the second mate asks him the ticket, the two suitcases have swapped, and Kindaichi a moment later carries the heavy bags but also suitcases with the same colors as Kenmochi's, which he gave to the second mate...who is carrying a single suitcase, and grey. Later on, we see only those 2 bags and 2 colored suitcases, anything else vanished. (00:04:10)
