Haibane Renmei
TV Show • 2002 • Animation
ReportA dream of falling from the sky...and then birth. Rakka is born from a large cocoon into the Old Home, greeted by a group of females with small wings on their backs and shining halos above their heads. Soon Rakka’s own wings grow, a halo is placed on her head and she is told that she must work in the nearby town of Grie. She soon realizes that the town and the entire world they live in are confined behind the Wall, a tall, impenetrable wall that none except the mysterious Toga are allowed to exit.

Gaslighting, as in a form of abuse where an abuser deliberately undermines a person's sense of reality, doesn't happen at all in the show. There are a few places where characters lie, but even that is usually well intentioned.

No cutting, but a character hastily clips their wings in a way that easily reads as a metaphor for it.

A character tries to eat too fast and chokes slightly. It's very brief and played as a joke.

Not quite excessive. In the first episode, we see wings coming out of a character's back. It's bloody, but it's the only instance in the series.

One character of indeterminate (but clearly young) age passes on in an act which is treated with a similar gravity as death. Certain interpretations of the setting (such as that it is the afterlife) would also imply that children present died at some point, but this is never stated, emphasized, or even particularly suggested by the plot.
