One character is named Lucky, and he is a ghostly looking dog wrapped in bandages like a mummy, but he is very happy.

Yes but you or your villagers can cheer them up by talking to them, or they stop being sad after a certain amount of time. There is a trend of people intentionally pushing past or hitting their villagers with nets to make them sad or mad online so if you aren’t interested you may want to avoid or let people know you don’t want to see it

Some brief mentions in the biographies of real life paintings when you collect them and donate them to the museum. Easter, Hanukkah, thanksgiving, Halloween and Christmas are also discussed, have themed items but have their own in world names, lore and figures, for example toy day ran by a reindeer named Jingle to spread joy

You can eat food which gives you powered up strength to dig up trees and destroy rocks and using the toilet will remove this stamina buff, the toilet flushing as you get off it. You often can see villagers using the toilet in their houses. There is no actual poop or nudity related to that but it’s similar enough to maybe cause discomfort for some

No but your “mom” sends you mail with a gift named “mom’s *insert item type*” regularly in this game which was hard to see as someone estranged from my bio family so take caution in opening you mail if that upsets you. There are also Mother and Father’s Day events where you can buy special items from the nook stop app or from the machine in resident services which you can find the regional dates for on the wiki and avoid playing if you’d rather not see it.

If the game is left unplayed for a month or longer (or if the game is skipped one month or more ahead via time travel without starting the game), cockroaches will appear in the player's house. These cockroaches can be killed by running over them, and release a small spirit before disappearing.

You can hit animal villagers with a net. After a few times, they will express that they do not like it and that it hurts. If you continue to do this, they will eventually become angry and walk away.

No albeit it’s possible to have the characters Copper and Booker (from some of the previous games) show up by scanning their amiibo card (as in it’s completely optional in the first place). But even then it is solely a cameo and the game doesn’t really express any strong opinions on police one way or the other

lazy villagers have dialogue exclaiming "what if all this isn't real and we're just someone else's entertainment?" and the player will get visibly nervous. the villager will describe how illogical some of the game mechanics are. but, it ends with them laughing it off as a joke. this is random dialogue that doesn't happen often, but isn't easily avoidable either.

Not sure if this counts, but many in game statues based off of real statues are nude with actual male parts and nipples. They are based off of real life famous statues. The Gallant Statue is the one that’s the most well known due to having an actual male part that is very detailed. However it’s more like artistic nudity than trying to be NSFW

Nope, in fact a Santa inspired character (Jingle) appears in the game and there’s many Santa themed apparel. Zipper the Easter Bunny is also in the game, but many people find him terrifying

There are credits that roll when you complete 30 vacation houses on the DLC happy home paradise or whenever you go to one of KKs concerts in the plaza but the game does not end after

I believe there are ways you can make these noises in game, but they're completely optional.

Nobody is hit by a car but sometimes lazy villagers may mention they aren't allowed to drive or be in a plane anymore due to irresponsible behavior while in these vehicles, nobody is described as being hurt in these instances though

You travel in planes a lot during the game. Sometimes the pilot will joke that you have to make a water landing, but that is ok because this is a seaplane.

Many fan made designs have blood on them but there’s no blood aside from that

A character named Gulliver will often wash up on the beach unconscious after falling off his boat, but he will always be ok and just needs your help repairing his communicator so his crew can come pick him up.

There aren’t guns in the game, but there is a cannon item and when you interact with it it’ll shoot a cannonball. If you end up touching the cannonball you won’t get hurt.
