There is no actual 'squash', as in crumbles on itself, but two different characters die from head trauma. One from a hammer strike, the other gets their head slammed into the ground which kills them. There are actions where the player stomps on heads but they're not gory.

They're not directly shown, but the bandaged hand with missing finger is, and during a torture scene a mace goes down with the following shot being of the mace over a foot with blood quickly spreading on the floor.

Despite the no’s lee mentions that his daughter died and he
called her his baby so it implied she was a child. And elder Chen also mentions that lots of women and children were butchered, so the people saying no didn’t really check. Also I forget his name said that his teen daughter died. And the teen responsible was murdered. Play the whole game before you vote.

the 35th substory in the game ( optional and can be denied) : the truth about beauty, in Chapter 4 Kiryu ( one of the protagonists) approaches a woman on the upper right corner of the back lot in Nakamichi Alley. The woman will ask to hang out , implying sexual activity later on. She asks Kiryu to go to a hotel with her and if you refuse she gets angry and calls to her brother who comes onto the scene, and misgenders his sister ( who is implied to be trans). After fighting the brother , the woman misgenders him, ( him being her brother who is implied to be trans) , Kiryu then fights the woman. Upon winning the pair run off and Kiryu is left to contemplate on how he should be more careful about "getting scammed"
Additionally, a relevant and recurring character in the game who appears in the real estate arc ( one of the millionaires) is implied to be a trans woman or a drag queen.
The bar manager of the Earth Angel Club is implied to be a drag queen who is in drag as a civilian but actually a yakuza. Is referred to in feminine terms.

Some characters you fight have guns, and the player can use them if they so desire. There is one scene where it is mandatory to shoot yakuza who are chasing you in cars.
