Stated but not shown that orphaned children were being taken by the Soviet Union and had experiments performed on them. Denji’s situation with the Japanese government isn’t exactly ethical either.
Bomb Girl blows up her own throat to decapitate her head, which she turns into a bomb and throws into a building. She regenerates both immediately afterwards.
[SPOILERS]
Also I’m not sure if this counts else but there’s a scene where Reze kisses Denji only to suddenly bite off his entire tongue mid-kiss and eat it as he collapses to the ground choking on blood in his mouth and she proceeds to viciously attack him with a knife. It’s one of the most brutal scenes in the movie.
Devils can regenerate from anything if they feed on blood. A dead woman has her blood trained and fed to Denji so he can regenerate his entire body. A half eaten man with his lower torso missing is found still alive in the body of a recently killed devil and he begs to be killed.

Denji is 16. Reze’s age is never stated in or out of the movie but it’s safe to assume she’s relatively close to Denji’s age.
Makima on the other hand, is definitely way older than him and is clearly grooming him by taking advantage of Denji’s feelings to manipulate him into doing whatever she wants him to.
It’s heavily implied in the ending Makima was somehow watching Reze the whole time using a Devils ability as she talks about a conversation Reze had with Denji alone in an empty building that Makima shouldn’t have known about

In a way. Aki saves the Angle Devil by grabbing him before he’s pulled into a Typhoon, knowing that touching the Angel will reduce Aki’s already really short remaining lifespan.
The big fight spanning the entire second half of the movie has a lot of quick camera movements and panning that can make it hard to keep track of what’s happening for some people, especially given how blazingly fast everyone in the fight moves.
Denji says he still has feelings for Reze and is willing to look past Reze trying to kill him and committing mass murder so they could run away together. He asks her to meet him again at the cafe the next day. She initially refuses and leaves but changes her mind and tries to go back to meet him only to be killed before she can.
There’s a scene of a butterfly getting stuck in a spider web then getting trapped and eaten by the spider, which is a symbolic metaphor for the plot of the movie.
Also there is a Spider Devil in the series but she doesn’t appear anywhere in this movie. Just something to note if this is your first exposure to the series and you plan on watching the rest.
Bomb Girl is defeated by being chained up and thrown underwater so she can’t ignite her bombs. It’s unclear if she drowns to death or to unconsciousness but either way she’s revived afterwards.
The bomb devil turns their fingers, hands, feet into bombs and throws them at people, buildings etc. She immediately grows back anything she amputates.
Denji’s body is repeatedly blown up several times In a row until most of his body has been disintegrated and what remains is a charred upper torso. He is rescued and healed back to normal after this.
The climax of the movie is when Reze attacks Denji after kissing him, biting off his tongue, cutting off his hand, and then attempting to stab him in the chest.
The only one that got me a little triggered was Denji coughing up the flower (when he first meets Reze in the telephone booth). He does lean over and kind of start acting like he’s gonna puke & gags a bit to take the flower out. This was the only mildly triggering part for me but otherwise yes technically this movie is safe from any full v*mit scenes 🙏🏼 enjoy! It was so good
There’s an extensive scene of Denji and Reze swimming underwater in a pool. Also in the ending, Bomb Girl is defeated by being chained up and thrown underwater.
Like in Season 1, Denji’s character arc is him confusing his subconscious desire for a genuine romantic connection after an entire life of isolation with just merely performing sexual acts and gradually learning that he doesn’t just want sexual gratification but a genuine connection and relationship. There’s a scene of him imagining several girls in lingerie. There’s also a scene of him skinny dipping in a pool with Reze but the dark lighting and shot framing hides Reze’s nipples and both characters genitals.
Also the bomb devil is half naked for half of the movie after her clothes are incinerated off from self-destructing her body and regenerating afterwards.
