Goofs

He-Man and She-Ra: The Secret of the Sword

Edit

Continuity

Battle Cat knocks Catra's mask off, causing her to return to humanoid form, and begins to chase her. However, when he is seen still chasing her a short time later, the mask is back on her head.
When Adam and Cringer get their food in the Laughing Swan, Adam is seen picking up the drumstick from his plate and a bite mark instantly appears on it. Yet Adam is never seen taking the bite.
During all the scenes involving the Magna Beam and it's charger, Hordak's right arm keeps changing between his usual blue one and a mechanical one with a claw without explanation.
When She-Ra learns about her family history in the Whispering Woods, during one of her close-ups the background is from the top of the Magna-Beam Tower at the Fright Zone instead.
After Adora pretends to faint Skeletor tells 'Furface' (Beast Man) to take the princess to the dungeons. He carries Adora to the dungeon, his right arm supporting her legs and left holding her body. However, when he enters the dungeon and places Adora down she is now being carried the opposite way (i.e. her legs being supported by the carrier's left arm and the body with the right arm).

Incorrectly regarded as goofs

Revealing mistakes

Each time during Adora's transformation into She-Ra with Castle Grayskull in the background, its jaw-bridge is missing. For the TV series, the transformation sequence was re-animated and the corrected version used in each episode following the five part origin story, but the incorrect version is still shown during the opening credits of all those episodes.

Plot holes

Despite having not seen her since she was an infant, King Randor and Queen Marlena instantly recognize their grown daughter Adora. The Sorceress cast a spell over Prince Adam and the citizens of Eternia to spare the pain of the loss. Only the Sorceress, Man At Arms, the King and Queen knew Adora had been kidnapped. They searched for years with no luck.

Character error

In the tavern, three of Hordak's robot minions enter, order the bard to keep playing music, take a table, and then take offense to the musician. Being robots, they don't eat or drink and they most likely wouldn't be interested in music.
The bartender at the watering hole Adam goes into is surprised that Cringer can speak. While a green tiger may be new to him, he should not be surprised at a talking animal, as Bow is already in the place with Kowl.
