no, but the aftermath of a rape is shown on screen twice. one is completely non-graphic but the other shows an injured girl who is missing her skirt and underwear, though nothing below the hips is shown besides her leg.

a main character smokes frequently and there was are a few small asides that heavily imply that a character may be relying on prescription medications for whatever reason (we see him waking up and there are many pill bottles on his nightstand, though this is easy to miss, and at another point a character who dislikes him mentions that he "doesn't like people who rely on pills") and another character has a proclivity for using excessive amounts of pills for various purposes. one point has him taking them for painkilling purposes, but another character notes that he is taking a lot. nothing explicit and both characters's connection to drugs are very, very easily missable unless you are looking for it, and nothing is confirmed.

There are scenes where the main characters forget to feed their fish or suggest experimenting to see if fish could survive a change in environment. It’s not super serious but happens to occur from the fish’s point of view.

re the below: the main character is actually twelve, but other than that this is accurate, and i feel it is worth mentioning the elder character in question may be being manipulated into behaving this way on top of having been groomed and not knowing other ways to express affection.
in addition, there is a character later in the story who recounts (no graphic detail) being raped by a villain.

A character cuts herself with a razor to convince her girlfriend to stop self harming. Another characters is cut and stabbed many times in different scenes, both in battle, as part of "training", and when a name is carved into his neck. Various characters sustain minor-to-moderate severity cuts while fighting.

The same character has his hand stomped on, but that's the extent of the damage.
In a much later scene, a character breaks another character's finger.

some of the splash art between chapters features art of the main character that is reminiscent of the more "risque" covers of the novel 'lolita', but there is nothing in manga itself. the characters take baths sometimes but it's all non-sexual nudity and nothing below the waist is ever shown.

At the end of the combined 1 and 2 volume collection, there is a picture of Ritsuka with an IV bag, and the needle in his arm is visible. The picture comes right after the extra story where he loses the charm Yuiko gave him, and is not necessary to the story

it is heavily implied that the main character's elder brother is in love with him and he at the very least has some sort of sick fascination with him, though this is portrayed as a bad thing.

The manga has not been updated since 2017, and does not look like it will be continued. It is unconfirmed, but the 14th volume may be released soon. The place the story leaves off is not happy.

There is a very graphic scene where someone has a nail pushed through their hand. there are other scenes involving blood/gore but that is probably the most explicit.
