The Ringer - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: After Link grabs his sword and pillow from the air, he lands and turns to face two of the Moblins. When it shows them, the one standing up appears to have its feet stuck in the ground in an odd error in how it's drawn. (00:02:35)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Link jumps through the air and grabs his sword and pillow mid air as they launch towards him. He lands and turns to face the other Moblins, and his left arm is extended out straight with the pillow in hand. But it cuts to an angle behind him and suddenly his elbow is bent with the pillow raised up. Also his position by the window changes, with it showing the window a bit behind him in one shot, then beside him slightly to the front in the next. In the next shot again after the Moblin charges him, the window is fully behind him. (00:02:35)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Link smacks one of the Moblins in the face with a pillow and it sends feathers flying all around. The shot then cuts, still having Link in the frame, and now there are no feathers in the air or on the ground next to him. (00:02:40)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: All the Moblins are shown to have one of their bottom teeth sticking up out of their mouth longer than the others on the bottom of their mouth. And in all of them the long tooth is on the right side of their mouth. When one charges Link, you see it's reflection in Link's sword, yet despite it being a reflection, the long tooth is still on the right side of the Moblin's mouth. (00:02:45)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: One of the Moblins has a black spear, having a sharp black blade on one end, and a white skull at the other. But when he charges Link and fights him head on, suddenly the spear head is gone, as is the skull, making it just a black staff. (00:02:45)

Continuity mistake: Several times while Link is fighting the Moblins in his room, his mirror disappears. Most notably when he's one on one with the Moblin with the staff. (00:02:50)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: Link ducks a blow from the Moblin’s staff that breaks the vase on the table next to him. The shock knocks the picture of Zelda off the wall that falls and shatters when it hits the table. Some of the debris fall off the side, but then inexplicably just hovers in the air. A small part of the picture frame hovering in the air on the left of the screen. You can tell this is just the animation of the breaking picture was not finished, as part of the debris also flies up above it and just freezes in mid air. (00:03:00)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: The Moblin that was hit with the pillow is seen standing next to the door in one shot with a mouth full of feathers. He is standing with a slight hunch and his head is bent down slightly. The very next shot cuts to him spitting the feathers out, but he is already leaning back to inhale between the shots. (00:03:05)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: During the fight with the Moblins, the one with the staff breaks the vases on the table next to Link's bed. This also causes the painting of Zelda to fall and break. A few shots later, the vase and painting are back where they are supposed to be and perfectly fine. Throughout the fight, the painting keeps changing from fixed to broken, and even how much it's broken constantly. (00:03:10)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Shortly after Link fights the Moblin with the staff, and the vase and painting of Zelda are broken, it shows the Moblin he threw at his bed earlier still under the sheet and struggling to get out. The Moblin is suddenly much further from Link's bed than before and is where Link was fighting the staff Moblin moments before. (00:03:10)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: The Moblin Link hit with the pillow and has feathers in his mouth is seen standing by the door. He spits out the feathers and draws his sword. Couple shots later, he is suddenly standing next to Link's bed, totally away from the door, and then begins charging. (00:03:15)

Continuity mistake: During the Moblin fight, Link jumps off the wall next to his bed and there is a green trunk that he gets his clothes off later. But as Zelda is walking into the room looking at the destruction, it completely vanishes. (00:03:20 - 00:04:10)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Link fires sword lasers at the first two Moblins, to his right is the broken table, Zelda's painting, the window, and his bed. It cuts to the lasers zapping the Moblins, and then back to Link. The shot is at about the same angle as the previous shot, but now there is nothing beside Link but the wall and now the Triforce pedestal is behind him. (00:03:25)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: As Link charges up his sword laser, the picture of Zelda is shown behind him leaning to the right. Then the next shot as he is turning around to shoot the Moblins, the picture is now leaning to the left. Also the table's legs are suddenly broken between shots. (00:03:25)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Link puts the pillow over the Moblin's head that has the staff and jumps back. The Moblin with the sword runs into the other Moblin and they both fall over. Link then holds up his sword to change his zap laser and begins blasting the Moblins. The shot cuts back to those two Moblins lying down on the ground trying to get up. The staff, sword, and pillow have all vanished. (00:03:30)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Link begins shooting sword lasers at the Moblins to finish them of. The last one comes up behind Link as he is kneeling down. Without turning around, Link lifts the sword over his head and fires the laser behind him. The Moblin vanishes and drops a Magic Bow. Then, Without getting up or turning around, Link reaches down in front of him to pick up the bow. (00:03:40)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: In the fight with the Moblins, Link bounces off a wall and it shows a green trunk by his bed. There is nothing on or in front of the trunk. After Link finishes the fight and gets the bow, he goes to the trunk which now has his boots in front of it, and his tunic and other supplies on top of it. (00:03:45)

Continuity mistake: Zelda knocks on the door and Link goes to it. The metal designs that resemble arrows on the door drastically change in size between shots, and change shape a little. (00:03:55)

Continuity mistake: When Link opens the door to let Zelda in to his room and gets slapped, his shadow disappears off the wall and the door. (00:04:00)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: As Link leans in to kiss Zelda, he gets slapped. Watch closely at the top left of the screen. A random blue dot appears for a split second as he is slapped and then vanishes. (00:04:05)
Chosen answer: It'll be to ensure that they're always facing directly away from each other, 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock, meaning between the two of them they've pretty much got 360 degree coverage. Otherwise there's a chance they might end up at say 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock, leaving themselves exposed from another direction.
