It's kind of what I meant, but I didn't know how to put it. I didn't know that expression. I've learned something new today! :wahah:

The most spectacular of all the errors in my opinion :o I have watched the episode several times in various languages without seeing it though :unsure: Maybe a good reason to watch it once more :P [/quote]
I had watched this episode closely a while ago and I couldn't find *any* mistake. Now I wonder how I managed to do that! :lol:

To be honest, I found this one by chance while taking a screenshot for the other Livian mistake. I hadn't seen it as I was watching the episode on TV either. Usually they seem to forget a layer; this time they forgot to remove one instead. It's very unique.

But the most spectacular, I believe, was the background disappearing in Uran Falls in Love, and I hadn't even seen that one (DrFrag found it). To me it kind of looked like the "camera" rotated quickly around the characters until DrFrag pointed it out, and he was sure right. This one is definitely not far behind though. :D

I wonder if this third arm is actually supposed to be a reflection? But that does not seem right, because the palm-side is turned toward the viewer. :lol:

This is Daddy Walrus' watch. It's supposed to be the last day of the month... Oooops! :lol: [/b]

The mistake was created in the translation! :D In the Japanese version, Dr. EvilCat (or something like that) says something is going to happen 2 days later, on Novembre 19th. :)

At the end of Outer Spaceport R45, Astro has 2 mouths, even while he speaks. :wacko: I don't know what happened there! :huh:

In The Rainbow Comet, Mindy has either 3 or 5 buttons. Also, what is it with Kenneth's eyes? Why are they black with a white pupil? :huh: But they aren't always that way, sometimes they have a black pupil, as you can see below.

In The Return of Queen Cleopatra, the sceptre sometimes has a blue end, sometimes a yellow end.

Image

In Save the Carolina 3, as Astro speaks while he's flying to the Carolina 3, there are a few frames in which the flames out of his jets dissapear.

In Goliath's Head, take a close look at the waist of Daddy Walrus and the desk. It really looks like he's only an upper body floating above the desk! Dr. Elefun's fingers disappear into the desk too.

Image





In The Death Balloon, the little girl's clothes change colors.

Image

I had found more than that, but I forgot what they were. :cry:

Second one, from [b]Blackie Young again. When Doctor Elefun calls Astro from his home, he says: "I need you at the ministry righ away". Oops... [/b]

Another translation mistake, because he simply says "Astro, it's me. Come right now." in Japanese.

I understand now why Chief McClaw was so scared after pushing the "power on" button the second time; in Japanese, Elefun had just said that if it exploded, it would be like a small A-Bomb! :P

From The Rainbow Comet:

I've pretty much stopped paying attention to the number of Astro's eyelashes, because he often has 4 instead of 5. But this episode was interesting. He sometimes has 6:

Image


Sometimes 7:

Image


And at one point, 8:

Image



Also, notice here how his eyebrow appear over his hand! :P

[b]Astro Fight Aliens!

After Astro read a page from lieutenant Nelson's journal (BTW, thanks to DrFrag for the characters page on his website! ;) , Carlina tells him to read the next page, which he does by turning the right page:
Image

[...]

Then for some reason Astro turns the left page, which was basically the page he was reading when Carlina told him to go to the next page, but: :o
Image

I assume Astro wanted to go to the next page, which would have been blank since he had just read the last entry, but the artist got confused and drew the motion the Japanese way! :D [/b]

I watched it again last night and I was wrong. :unsure: He turns all the pages the Japanese way.

In The Secret of the Mayas, Astro's chest door is suddenly empty, no matter what the lighting is... The "wire" seems to change size and color as the drawing style changes too. :P
