Continuity mistake: While Ganon is disguising himself as an amateur magician, he makes a throne to sit in. The back of the throne is red and black and has horns, very noticeable.

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.

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.

Then, Without getting up or turning around, Link reaches down in front of him to pick up the bow. (00:03:40)

Continuity mistake: As Link wakes up, you can see there is a fitted sheet on his bed, as well as a regular sheet that he covers up with. He sits up and pushes the regular sheet back and gets up. The fitted sheet is still secure to his bed. But when he throws a Moblin at his bed, the fitted sheet is suddenly gone and it's just a wooden bed. (00:01:15 - 00:02:30)
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: 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
Continuity mistake: As Link looks out the window at Zelda, the ledge on the outside of the window has 3 lines going down it showing it divided into 4 stones. The shots from Zelda's perspective show it as one solid piece. The window is also skinnier from her view. (00:01:50)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When the Moblins attack Link in his room through a sort of trap door, the hole that is the door keeps changing locations, shapes, and the tiles around it all throughout the fight. Some points even disappearing entirely. (00:01:25 - 00:03:40)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: There is a window between the mirror and table by Link's bed in Link's room. As he gets up out of the bed, the window is shut as he walks past it, and the ledge under it has nothing on it. Moments later when the Moblins come up through the floor and attack, the mirror is nearer the wall, the window is suddenly open, and now there are ring handle like things on the ledge, which is also now bigger and pushed out more into the room. (00:01:25 - 00:02:15)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: When Link calls down to Zelda from the tower, you can see a fault in the drawing as Zelda moves. There is a low wall around her on the balcony, with flowers and vines on it. As she moves, you can see some of her dress pass right through the wall and vines towards the lower right. (00:01:50)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Link gets out of bed in the beginning and the sheet is wadded up towards the foot but mostly on the bed. Later when the Moblins attack him, he throws one at the bed who lands in the sheets. The sheet is hanging off the bed much more now than it was. (00:01:20 - 00:02:30)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Link gets out of bed and is complaining about his new life in the castle. The Triforce of Wisdom is levitating on a pedestal. It is sparkling and glowing brightly. Link then steps in front of a mirror and the Triforce is seen in the mirror. The reflection shows no sparkles or any glowing. (00:01:30)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: The shot from behind Ganon's throne shows a view of the walls at the base of his stair case. On the left there are some brown, thick stalagmites rising from the top of the wall on the left, and parts of them are drooping over the wall hanging down. You can also see on the right side of the screen that no such wall exists on that side and it opens up into a different path. When Ganon teleports down from his throne and is standing down there, the stalagmites and their hanging parts are gone. Also there is now an identical wall on the other side that was not there before. It also appears that the stairs coming down from his throne are more of a straight line shape now instead of fanning out. And lastly, the tall curved walls out in the middle are very tall, but in the other shot they are barely half the height they were compared to the other wall. (00:06:00)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Ganon teleports to his throne after killing the Moblins for their failure and it shows two column like structures sticking up from it. In this shot they appear shaped more like melted wax candles and droopy. When it cuts to a view from the other side after Ganon's close up, they look very different, with jagged edges like broken rocks. It also appears that his throne also becomes wider between shots with him having more room to sit. (00:05:45)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: As Ganon zaps the Moblins inside the Evil Jar with lighting to destroy them, it cuts to a shot from a distance by Ganon's throne showing the Jar. In that shot, the artist seems to have forgotten to draw the podium holding the Triforce of Power under the Jar as it has vanished. (00:05:45)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: After the Moblins apologize to Ganon for failing, it cuts to Ganon's eye as he states that they will be sorrier before he kills them, and it shows them reflected. For the most part, the reflection is pretty close to correct, with the right and left Moblins being flipped to opposite sides and facing like a reflection. However the Moblin in the center is not a reflection, and the tale tale sign is his feet. In both shots, his left foot is hanging down lower than his right. If it were a reflection it would show his right foot hanging down further in the second shot. (00:05:25)
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.
