Continuity mistake: Link and Zeda are in front of a blacksmith shop at the beginning of the episode. It is very bright inside the shop and the smith even ignites a large fire with lightning from his fingers. But when the Tin Suits arrive, there is a shot showing Link and Zelda from a distance in front of the blacksmith shop. The doorway of the shop shows it totally dark inside, pitch black... or more a very dark brown. Then the very next shot of a close up of Link shows the inside of the shop as a solid dark blue. (00:30:25)
Continuity mistake: One of the Tin Suits has Link by the leg and pulls out a horn to summon the Octorok. As they do, the shot from behind shows both of them with a shadow.

Continuity mistake: In the beginning, Link is watching a blacksmith working on a horseshoe. The first shot shows the horseshoe getting hit by the hammer on a blue anvil. The shot changes to show the blacksmith himself, and suddenly the anvil is almost twice the size it was. (00:29:50)

Later that same day when they rush back into his room to see if Ganon stole the Triforce, the pile is gone. Nobody was cleaning Link's room since he as faking being sick. And Link sure didn't do it since he faked being sick to get out of ANY cleaning. (00:24:40)

Now you can see water pouring out of the fountain and hear it. (00:19:20)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Spryte hauls out a blue rug and tosses it on the ground to clean it. The shot of it hitting the ground and unfolding shows it lying on a dark brown surface. The lines on it make it look like it is some sort of brick or possibly wood. But then the shot cuts back to Spryte with the rug in front of her, and now the rug is sitting on a light brown surface that is obviously dirt. (00:19:30)
Cold Spells - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: When Link first tries to sell the lie that he is sick to Zelda, he is sitting on his bed after attempting to kiss her. Spryte tries to baby him, so Link wraps himself up in a sheet. The close up shot shows that there is some of the sheet under his feet and dangling off the bed. The next shot, there is no sheet under his feet, nor dangling off the bed. (00:18:15)

Continuity mistake: Zelda is standing in Link's room and complaining about the mess. Just before the Triforce of Wisdom speaks to her, it shows Zelda from behind and there is a window next to her. It is shut, and the doors are wide, have thick horizontal braces, and have O shaped rings on each side as handles. Then after the Triforce speaks, there is a shot from in front of Zelda, and the same window is shown. Now the window is skinnier, the doors on it are darker, the horizontal braces are thinner, and the O shaped rings are gone. (00:16:55)

Continuity mistake: Spryte hears Link do his first fake sneeze and rushes in to where Link is mopping. There is a bucket beside the fire place now that was not there a moment before. (00:16:30)
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.
