Reika Hayami and the Uninvited Guest - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: The bloodstains on the back of the pink shirt change throughout the episode, from the time when the victim wore it, to the various phases when the culprit is exposed. (00:19:55)
Reika Hayami and the Uninvited Guest - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: When Reika asks everyone who got the first two questions right to stand, the imposter's cup and Kindaichi's are different from just a moment before; Kindaichi's is suddenly empty and both cups are turned (the guy's cup and plate switched side too). (00:10:20)
Reika Hayami and the Uninvited Guest - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: The bad guy digs his fork and knife into the juicy steak, and we get a close-up of that. When he forces out a laughter at Kindaichi's statement a couple of shots later, we see the plate changed; the veggies swapped position and the cut does not match. (00:05:30)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 4 - S1-E4
Plot hole: The plot involves mother and daughter having a matching tattoo on their butt. This episode tells us that they had the matching tattoo since Ran was literally a child since her father himself did it. It's easy to understand that since kids, you know, grow and all, a dragon on the buttock of a 6 years-old would be quite different when they are all grown up. And it's no small tattoo and it needs to be accurate because it's a map.
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 3 - S1-E3
Plot hole: The surprise reveal of the killer doesn't make any sense, because Kindaichi gathered everyone involved in the case, and the killer very much is; they are absent for no reason, so the denouement shouldn't have even started and the audience would have to be napping not to notice.
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 3 - S1-E3
Other mistake: Saki was filming the table from his seat, and he couldn't have got close-ups of the soup bowls from the angle proposed. (00:04:45)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Ivy's grip on the glass shard changes between shots; at first the thumb is not visible, then the hand is positioned differently. (00:19:55)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Kindaichi and Saki's position keeps changing between shots when they discover the fake suicide victim at the top of the stairs. (00:19:50)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 2 - S1-E2
Other mistake: When Saki shows the picture of Ran's butt, the photo is taken from the right of the girl. In the scene during the previous episode, Saki was standing on Hajime's left, and he could never take that shot from that angle.
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 2 - S1-E2
Other mistake: Miyuki calls Kindaichi at 9:48 AM. Hearing the pink dolphin hint, they run to the Kowloon Palace statue. When at that location Saki shows him the picture, the cell phone says it's 15:24. Too much time elapsed between the two moments. (00:17:00)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Hen Ivy calls the actual Ran in disguise "Ran-san", Saki is pointing the camera at her in one shot, and his arm is all the way down his side in the next. (00:09:25)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 1 - S1-E1
Plot hole: The plot of the four-parter is complete nonsense even for a kid show. It is tied together by unbelievable pure coincidences; Miyuki is the perfect doppelganger of a missing model, Kindaichi randomly bumps into a high school mate who just happened to be in HK as well (!), and they both equally randomly (so they think) bump into the model who was just chilling on a park bench (so much for disappearing!), he befriends the son of the victim from 20 years before.
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 1 - S1-E1
Other mistake: Throughout the episode, certain street signs ("Job&Piece", "Ocean Guest House") are used multiple times in different points of Hong Kong (for instance the establishing shot of the city, behind Kindaichi and his friends when they meet, during the bike chase).
The Game Mansion Murder Case File 2 - S1-E24
Continuity mistake: When the contestant drops her ramen bowl and chopsticks, the food, the bowl and the chopsticks are in different positions throughout the rest of the scene. (00:08:00)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 4 - S1-E22
Other mistake: When Busujima tells the real story of what happened 3 years before, the bathtub in the background drained completely, but nobody removed the drain stopper, which in fact is in frame and perfectly placed. (00:10:55)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 4 - S1-E22
Other mistake: When Kindaichi shows his phone with the incriminating evidence, the phone's charge is at 60%, exactly the same charge it had last time we saw the same phone screenshot for the same purpose in the previous episode. Mere minutes later for the bathtub demonstration Miyuki calls him and the phone is charged at 80%. (00:07:50)
