One of the characters, Megumi Shimizu, spies on Natsuno Yuuki from the very first episode by hiding outside his window. There is also a very strong theme of the villagers being watched/stalked by monsters throughout the show.

One of the characters, Nao, reflects on how she was raised in a negligent household during a flashback, but it isn’t detailed.

Not specifically, but one of the vampire leaders warns the other vampires that he will kill them if they try to leave or run away.

Possibly. A character named Nao has a brief flashback where she thinks about how she was in a negligent household as a child, but there aren’t specifics.

Some of the characters smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol but addiction isn't a major theme in the show. The vampires having intense hunger and needing blood to survive could be viewed as addiction.

In episode 14, the doctor uses a scalpel to draw a few drops of blood from his finger. In the same episode, he also uses a scalpel on a vampire he is experimenting on. The cuts heal quickly but there is a lot of blood and graphic muscle and veins. Many characters are also stabbed and/or impaled with stakes.

A boy wakes up in a buried coffin as an ‘undead’, which is quite claustrophobic. He realises that he is undead and therefore not breathing anymore, which causes him to panic for a moment. In episode 18, a woman loses consciousness and dies after hyperventilating. Some characters also experience paranoia so may struggle to breathe.

The vampires were once human and feed on human blood, so it could be interpreted as cannibalism by some.

The vampires blister and burn in sunlight, and some of them die this way in the later episodes of the show. In the season 2 opening there is also some imagery of people burning. In episode 22 an injured man falls into fire but it is unclear if he was already dead or if he died from the fire.

Not necessarily "alive", but there is a scene where a boy comes back as a vampire but is trapped in his coffin. He's let out, though.

Towards the end of the series a girl (Megumi Shimizu) has her head squashed by a tractor wheel. It is quite graphic but also quite obvious when it is about to happen because she is pinned to the ground in a field. It isn't actually shown that her teeth are damaged, but it can be assumed.

Hospitals play a massive part in the show. There are nurses and a doctor that are main characters. In episode 14, there is a very graphic scene where the doctor experiments on and medically tortures his own wife who turned into a vampire.

There are several scenes that are claustrophobic. Once a guy is shown waking up in a coffin, once a child is kidnapped and trapped in a small room with a bad guy, there are narrow tunnels, a girl in a suitcase (though she gets in willingly), etc.

No, but it is about vampire-like creatures, and sometime the story is shown from their perspective, how they are starving, so that can be triggering for someone.

In episode 21, a car side-swipes a small truck and causes it to overturn. Some people are wounded, but don’t die. In episode 22, a getaway car hits some other cars but only minor damage is caused. The car overturns but the driver is uninjured.

Someone’s head is nearly accidentally hit by a tyre on an electric scooter, but it stops just before it touches them. In episode 18, someone moves out of the way just before a car hits them. It's also mentioned in the same episode that the driver has been running over multiple people with the car. In episode 21, a man is deliberately hit head-on by a car and it is quite graphic. He has a head injury from this but escapes. In episode 22, a girl is deliberately hit and run over by tractors.

A window is broken with a gunshot in episode 17. In episode 20, more people are shot at and assumed to have been killed. In episode 21 a vampire man is shot multiple times with lots of blood, but survives these injuries.
