As punishment for bullying other gnomes, a gnome has his hat stolen and must wear his wife's kerchief before he can approach the king. The king and the main character make the gnome wait outside for several hours so everyone can see him, and for quite a while the other gnomes mock the gnome for wearing his wife's kerchief, calling him pretty as an insult.

In one episode, a troll baby is shown to have peed on the floor at its feet. In the English version, this is changed to the baby troll having played with the shower and gotten the floor wet.

Debatable. The main characters pass away by transforming into trees, and while they are sad to go and their friends are sad to see them go, it's not treated as a tragedy but a fact of life.

A wolf eats poisoned meat and passes away soon after. Other than this, the only animal deaths in the series are woolly mammoths who died natural deaths thousands of years ago, and an implication of death by way of a hunter who carries around animal pelts.
