Hotel sign horizontally flipped In episode 5, at around 5:13 mark, we see the car driving away from the camera. On the right the "HOTEL" sign is drawn horizontally flipped. Could it be that in real life such sign exists, or is this just a drawing error?
First of all, this scene isn't happening in Japan, it's in Los Angeles, where Kaleido Stage itself is located, so it makes sense the car is on the right side.

While I do not have a definitive answer, there are two likely explanations:


During the production, while creating the scene they realized midway
or after its completion that it isn't in Japan, so they flipped the
background or the whole scene around.
The background was originally meant for cars coming towards the
viewer, not for ones going away from us, so they flipped it around
and didn't notice the sign or didn't have time to correct it.


The actual answer is more likely to be (or to be closer to) the latter, as the cars parking on the right side are actually on the wrong side of the road, their fronts are pointed towards the screen (If you don't have a driving license: in most countries this is considered illegal, including Los Angeles). Also, their driving wheels are on the right side instead of the left, while it's on the correct side in the police car a few seconds earlier. (But of course, this could be a production error too.)
