Academy's Seven Mysteries Murder Case: File 2 - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: One of the reporter's that act as audience and supporters for Makoto is quite recognizable because he's in the front line and wearing glasses. His jacket is reddish/maroon at first, but in the rest of the scene becomes purple/blue. It's not a matter of lighting or lack of detail when he is in the background/shadows, just compare it to the guy next to him wearing green to see it's a proper coloring mistake. (00:06:20)

Hiren Lake Legend Murder Case: File 1 - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: When Kindaichi and the others talk with the mature couple, the president is wearing a purple-ish jacket and a red shirt. At dinner, they make a comment about Miyuki and Eiji Touno being a couple. From behind, the president is wearing his jacket, but from the front he's just wearing the red shirt. (00:09:40)

Hiren Lake Legend Murder Case: File 1 - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: During dinner, the writer (Itsuki) approaches the artist (Kobayashi). The food in front of Kobayashi changes between shots; in the overhead shot of the table you could see just a small plate with two chopsticks, which change position in a later shot, with a beer glass added too.

Hiren Lake Legend Murder Case: File 1 - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: After they find out that the bridge has been destroyed, the survivors debate what to do. One of them mentions that it's suicide to go in the woods without a map. He does so getting in front of Kindaichi in the aerial shot, but he's behind him in the next shot. (00:14:50)

Wax Doll Castle Murder Case: File 1 - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: When Miyuki tells Hajime that the winner of the contest will receive a castle, she's wearing a bag with a long and wide strap that happens to be colored exactly like her cyclamen shirt. In the rest of the scene she is carrying a pink and cream gym bag with short handles. (00:03:20)

Hikou Isle Murder Case: File 3 - S1-E15

Continuity mistake: When Kindaichi strips Midori, he yanks the bra completely off the breast bringing it all the way below the ribcage. That's in the front views, because in the back view merely the shoulder strap is lowered, the rest of the undergarment is perfectly horizontal and unperturbed.

Magical Express Murder Case: File 3 - S2-E12

Audio problem: When Kindaichi understands the trick and runs away from the murder room, Miyuki as usual exclaims "Hajime-chan!" but with a curious flub in animation, her tongue moves but not her lips. Try to say "Hajime-chan" keeping your mouth open all the time, it's fun. (00:18:45)
