The hero Ghostblade comes from a family of butchers, and we get a flashback to him killing a pig. The scene cuts before you can see the pig die, but it's in distress/you hear it squeal in pain.

Episode 16 features a moment where due to one character being unable to speak, someone else assumes that his daughter is a girl he has a crush on and tries to set him up with her- however the father is vehemently opposed to the idea and the topic of conversation dies out fast.

There are some potential body horror elements in the Nice arc- mainly the focus on being physically transformed into someone else against your will. Episode 16 has a more explicit case of body horror with Ghostblade fighting someone who's been experimented on and regrows limbs after they've been cut off/is now made of an alien substance.

The show has a gimmick where the style changes somewhat frequently, shifting to a brightly saturated 2D style. The last episode of the E-Soul arc also features two characters with lightning powers battling and flashes resulting from it, and the Loli arc features a villain who wears a disco-ball helmet that flashes colors.

The Queen arc features a stand-up comedian who objectifies the female heroes - however he is clearly intended to be in the wrong and the arc itself doesn't objectify them.

It's implied that the character of Yang Cheng loses an arm and has it replaced with a prosthetic, however we don't see him lose the arm on screen. Episode 16 features a villain who has the ability to regenerate, and he gets his arms and legs cut off multiple times as a result.

Debatable- there are some characters that are very easy to read as LGBT (I.e. Wreck) but no one has been confirmed, and most of these characters have their fates left ambiguous/it's unclear if they actually died.
