In the most recent episode (ep 111), in a flashback from when he was a child,, Shigaraki's quirk accidentally activates as he is petting a dog, who dies graphically. It's pretty upsetting and they show the aftermath a couple of times before moving on from the scene.

No animal abuse occurs on screen. However, Nezu (a sentient mouse with a Quirk and the principal of the school) was reportedly experimented on in the past, and it caused him to develop a sadistic side (which we see during his fight with Mina and Denki).

One episode involves Present Mic getting assaulted by a group of bugs travelling from underground, and they end up covering his entire body. It's not extremely important, so skipping this particular scene is optional.

Todoroki was put through very harsh training as a child, and at one point his mother threw boiling water at him. This has affected him greatly, even as a teenager.
Also worth noting: in the manga, a major villain (Overhaul) abuses a 6-year old girl while posing as her "father" figure.

Midnight emits a toxin that quickly causes who ever breathes it in to fall asleep. A minor villain in Season 3 has a similar quirk, however it’s more dangerous and causes dozens of people to be hospitalised.

Yes, people are restrained all throughout the series on many instances.
Some examples are Bakugou in the first three seasons, Eri in the fourth season, and not to mention some UA training exercises involve restraining people. Villains and criminals are also restrained constantly.

Minoru Mineta regularly sexually harasses his female classmates-he makes inappropriate comments about them, tries to peep on them whenever possible, and has groped them more than once. Unsurprisingly, a LOT of people hate him, and what doesn't help is that it's played for laughs and he hasn't been expelled for his behavior (yet).

At least one shot of Hagakure (15 - 16) is sexualized, it’s in the dorm episode. Sexual feelings are delved into and the majority of characters are teens so YMMV, how objectified they are is debatable but there is sensual content (especially whenever Mineta gets involved).

Crust dies protecting Eraser from Shigaraki’s decay shockwave. Bakugo jumps in front of an attack for Deku and gets stabbed through the gut, he survives. Also in general Deku has very little care for his own well-being and puts others above himself to a destructive extent. This culminates in Season 6 where he runs off on his own and works to the point of exhaustion and almost gets himself killed and even then, still pushes others away, worrying they’ll get hurt instead

Bakugo vomits when he gets punched in the stomach by All Might during the Exams arc. It's definitely not depicted as sparkly rainbows that time, both in the anime and manga.
Additionally a younger Todoroki and Shigaraki are seen vomiting in flashbacks.

There is some audible bone cracking, and there are many screams of pain throughout the series. I'm not sure whether this counts, but as someone who finds it upsetting to hear people suffer, I thought it's worth mentioning.

Just because the show is about police and heroes doesn’t really automatically mean that it shows copaganda. Yes, it does show it in a way, but it also does show how corrupt some heroes can be. For example, Endeavour being the second best hero and abusing his wife/kids.

No characters are canonically revealed to be autistic though admittedly some could be perceived as autistic by fans, but I thought it was worth mentioning that a lot of characters get restrained, which may be a trigger for some autistic viewers.

One of the main villains has a tic that results in him scratching his neck. The more upset he gets, the more he scratches. There are a couple shots that show red lines, depicting that he's hurt himself. Though not cutting in the usual way, I'd definitely still be wary.

Several characters’ quirks are dependent on their calorie intake and there are scenes showing them binge eating for that purpose. It’s not a mental health issue for those characters, but watching them eat like that could be triggering for certain people.

Ymmv. Twice is a villain with D.I.D although he was already violent and evil before developing it and his regular personality is just as violent as his split one - the main thing it does is make him say contradicting statements or the opposite of what he means.

As many people have said there is a villain character called Mange who is a trans woman. She and her friend who is also trans are shown to be overly dramatic, muscular, and hairy which are all harmful stereotypes. There is a leopard hero that wears dresses as a part of their uniform who also displays the same qualities. Almost all of the characters in the show except the villains misgender or explicitly point out their clothing. (The leopard hero gets the most comments regarding their choice in clothing since Mange is often seen in pants) Honestly as a trans person myself I feel like these characters are written in as jokes especially considering Mange gets graphically killed. This is a great show but it can be a little hard to watch at times so please keep this in mind beforehand and stay safe.

There is zero incest undertones in AFO and his brothers relationship. I have no possible idea what the other comment is referring to. Their interactions are uncomfortable on the basis that AFO tortured his brother and forced a quirk on him for the sake of proving a point, not because of any underlining incestial feelings
