A Perfect Duo - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: A rare sight, the Nankatsu keeper actually parries something. When he does that he ends up on the ground, and his face is clean. He gets up, and his face is muddy. (00:18:30)

Sammo

A Perfect Duo - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: When Sanae waves at Tsubasa to cheer for him after Roberto's comedy bit with Ryo (telling him he wished he got injured earlier) the kid to her left has red hair instead of its proper dark color. (00:14:20)

Sammo

A Perfect Duo - S1-E8

Plot hole: For no reason and without the fact being addressed at all, 2 defenders take the kick off for the second extra time (and naturally lose it instantly, while Tsubasa and Misaki would never have). (00:18:00)

A Perfect Duo - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: Wakabayashi is still on all fours, dejected after being bested by Tsubasa. He lost his baseball cap parrying the shot in the right corner, but now both his beret and his wounded pride are towards the opposite side of the goal. (00:05:00)

Sammo

A Perfect Duo - S1-E8

Factual error: In this episode we have a random person showing up and being admitted to the team and playing as substitute on the spot, with nobody protesting. He puts on the (sweat-soaked, presumably!) uniform of another player and just goes ahead without any check from the referee or assistants. Given that the match is between two schools without necessarily having the official football federation involved, it is understandable, but they do not even ask the opposing coach if they are OK with something so obviously outside of any established rule. And they are still playing in a packed stadium, with official referees and even a radio commentator! Only in anime.

A Perfect Duo - S1-E8

Audio problem: When Urabe gets in the field to ask to be a substitute, western dubs (verified in the Italian and spanish dubs) have Ryo (or "Bruce") ask him who he is. Ryo knows perfectly well who Urabe is, and they played a friendly match just a couple episodes before too. (00:06:45)

A Perfect Duo - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: Ishizaki kicks the air to show that the injury is no biggie, and then clutches the injured ankle. Which was the right ankle, but his hand is on the left one. (00:04:50)

Sammo

Where Is the Rival? - S1-E5

Trivia: When Sanae starts waving the flag she made for Tsubasa, in the background you can see a couple of grossly disproportional characters most likely drawn as a joke by some animator, and even the Road Runner. (00:14:55)
