There is alot of animal violence in this film towards boars & wolves in particular. Boars and wolves are shown in pain, dying, bleeding, or wounded at multiple points, especially towards the later half.

No, but a woman kind of belittles her husband for being foolish/useless but she states she still loves him nonetheless.

There are a few scenes where both human and inhuman characters struggle to move, however in none of these scenes is the restraint intentional or targeted. All restrained creatures are eventually freed or rescued

Off-screen; several supporting characters are former prostitutes rescued from abusive brothels.

I was very surprised to find this movie rated PG-13. i watched other similar movies (Spirited Away, Totoro, Kiki's Delivery Service, Howl's Moving Castle, etc.) as a child, but not this one. I'm very glad I didn't! I was shocked at the level of gore, to be honest, and I'm not terribly squeamish! I did very much enjoy it as an adult, however! :)

Moro (a wolf and San's mother figure) falls off a cliff and dies. However, she is immortal and returns later having sustained little visible damage. There are also some implied deaths of soldiers and villagers in this way, but they are not explicitly shown on screen

Water, particularly several rivers, plays somewhat of a large role in this film. However, the waters are treated as sacred and safe spaces, and cause no harm throughout the film

Characters who are possessed by demons of hatred have worm-like tendrils that grow from their bodies that may be triggering to some people with trypophobia. There are also some small spirits who have 3-4 holes in place of faces.

No one is explicitly killed on screen in this way, however one character does have an arm eaten (quickly, no gushing blood) by a wolf and there are various animal gods that threaten to eat each other or humans.

Okotto spits a lot of blood when he’s injured. No actual vomit from anyone in the movie.

I just watched this and I don’t agree that there’s audio gore. People yell in pain but audio gore to me is when you can hear the gorey violent thing being done to the person (ripping/squelchy sounds) and I don’t recall any of that.

No, but the main character is infected with something that is said to be a slow death sentence taking over his body.

I would say more so body horror. The protagonist has a cursed wound that causes his body to act in abnormal ways.

There are a few scenes where characters are temporarily confined or trapped which may be triggering for some viewers. All restrained characters are eventually freed or rescued.

There is no specific screaming, however there are cries of alarm and surprise (typical of anime content if you are familiar).

There are a few gunshots and explosions which may be triggering for some viewers, but you always see the weapon before it fires.

Several characters spend time submerged in water or travelling entirely underwater. However, water is treated as sacred and safe in this film, and characters are never in danger from the water itself.

A character cares for a leper colony. No one in her village other than her will come near the lepers.

No real-world religions are discussed in the film, however there are fantastical gods and demons which are a major part of the plot of the film

Yes, there is a group of people with leprosy.
You could also argue that the curses could be considered a chronic illness

The main character gets banished at the very beginning and is pretty much homeless.
There are also some characters that live in the forest or are nomadic/travelers, but this is by choice.
