Not really. Though an older "male" vampire is paired with a young "girl" vampire and the he commits suicide, thus leaving her on her own.

No, but Oskar is abused with a switch (small, thin, branchlike object used for corporal punishment). This abuse is inflicted by other children and not adults.

No, but Oskar's regular pants are stuffed in a urinal while he's in his gym clothes. If unsanitary stuff as a whole is a trigger, I figure it'll invoke the same disturbance.

[Spoilers, a little]

Kind of.

Eli is a vampire who murders humans, so that already gives enough pause for some people to say 'yes'.

And if you believe this is a romantic story, then that's where the possibilty ends.

But if you're interested in the deeper aspect, the replacement of her caretaker that ages out of being able to reliably find her victims to feed on, there is another predatory aspect of a 200+ year old woman (we do see her 'real' aged skin for a moment in the film) continually seeking out twelve year old boys to romance into submission so they'll obediently murder for her until they're too old to do so.

I do want to note that her transgender identity is not at the forefront of this at all. Most people don't realize she's trans even after the scene where we see her genitalia. To me, I thought it was just weird vampire lore before someone else mentioned it in a review. Now it makes sense why she kept hinting at not being 'girl' enough to be his girlfriend— I originally thought she was implying that she's too much of a monster to classify as a human girl. Anyways. I'll stop rambling. It's up to you to decide. As a trans person, I don't think she's innately predatory in this because it's understated and her vampirism is what drives her reliance on homicidal servants that could last the average male lifespan.

Yes, there is an egg statue that is purportedly worth millions but is broken by a character (with permission of the owner). It doesn't matter to the plot at all, there appears to be no cultural ties to it, and there are no emotional reactions to its existence or breaking.

YES!!!! There's an extended scene where 2 characters are vigourously brushing their teeth and the sounds are very loud and potentially triggering. It was for me. It's at roughly 1hr 23min into the movie.

There are squishy slurping noises in some scenes when a vampire character drinks blood or licks it off the floor.

It is vague, but a vampire character repeatedly reminds a human boy "I'm not a girl." Not only are they not a human girl but also they were born with male genitals. They never discuss this latter point so it's not clear how they feel about that.

(at around 42 mins) Eli asks Oskar if he would still like her if she was not a girl. This is not only a reference to her being a vampire, but to the fact that, in the book, Eli is actually a boy who was castrated at the same time that he was turned into a vampire. This is briefly referenced in a scene (at around 1h 30 mins) where Eli's scarred genitalia is shown.

Late in production, it was decided that Lina Leandersson's voice would be replaced by a darker voice, because the character of Eli was supposed to be an androgynous boy who had been castrated, and Leandersson's voice was considered too delicate and feminine to depict that.

Some trans viewers have mixed feelings about the representation of the vampire character's gender, who is amab feminine-presenting (played by a cis girl actress) and identifies as "not a girl."

Yes. A vampire has the outward appearance of being a preteen girl, but is actually neither young nor a girl. It says its age is 12, but that it's been 12 for a long time. This vampire befriends an actual preteen human boy and they eventually consider themselves boyfriend-girfriend.
