There is no vomiting.
There is an extensive scene where a girl walks in front of a red backdrop with her face in her hands. Blood drips between her fingertips.
Later on, there is another scene where a girl sloppily drinks milk from a carton. It spills and she laps it off the floor. The milk dribbles from her mouth and she drools a little.

Mistuko's mother and father are both shown dying, although one turns out to be a narrative from a novel being written.

There is a meeting for people who have willingly mutilated their bodies, including what appears to be a self double-mastectomy, which could trigger breast cancer survivors or trans masc people.
