Several characters reference or do (including main characters) casual physical discipline, mostly slapping. This includes a child getting slapped for knowingly running into danger and a woman getting slapped by a man she is shipteased with in a 'snap out of it we need to go' scene. This seems to be normal within the world, so I hesitate to count this as domestic violence or child abuse but I also hesitate to not count it.

Casual physical discipline is briefly done to a child on screen, though this seems to be considered normal in the setting. The same child is also abducted and threatened to be killed and eaten at one point.

Some optional sidequests revolve around exposing a drug ring. Nothing is shown, it is only implied and spoken about.

Several areas in the game are filled with giant spider enemies and their eggs. One area in particular (Daksha Shrine in the Guar Plains) has a giant spider boss climb up and surprise the player after they collect an important item.

Some moves are fire-based and can cause the "blaze" effect, which deals continuous damage. Characters are never visually on fire.

One character falls to their death during a cutscene. It is possible to find the implied remains of where they crashed, but nothing graphic is shown.
There is also a scene in which a large number of unnamed people are thrown off what is effectively a giant bridge, presumably falling to their deaths.
It is also possible for the player to die from falling.

There’s a scene of a character getting electrocuted for somewhere around fifteen seconds straight, and the voice acting is so visceral it sounds like they just tased the VA in the recording booth.

in response to the misleading comment someone left, said character’s cyborg body is slowly killing her. said character was murdered and her body was mutilated so that she could pilot a face mechon and harbor the soul of a goddess. she wishes to have her old body back as it means she will be able to live along side her loved ones free of constant pain.

A significant portion of the early game centers around the aftermath of the antagonists destroying a town and taking over the surrounding area. There is a chain of later sidequests that allows the survivors of this attack to return and rebuild the town, but before the first of the sidequests is completed, they are shown staying in a small, temporary camp.

Some optional sidequests show visions of the future in which characters drown. (Nothing is shown, it's just text in a balloon.) Completing the sidequests changes the future so this does not happen.

Some of the characters use fantasy guns that shoot energy, but this never results in any visible wounds. There is one particularly notable scene involving a character being shot, but still nothing graphic is shown.
