The protagonist gropes a character he mistakenly believes to be a boy in order to determine their gender. One bad ending has a character seriously consider assaulting another, but he does not follow through.

Some bad ends involve the protagonist considering rape, as he is caught in time loops where nobody else remembers anything. He never acts on this.

If you're highly sensitive there are some gory scenes, but I wouldn't consider most of it excessive. Near the end of the true ending there is a description of some pretty intense gore from the perspective of the injured party

EDIT: There is also a description of intense gore on the main character near the end of chapter 9 if you choose inaction.

perverted character tries to trick a 16-year-old into saying something sexual for his enjoyment; played for comedy
same character is implied to be attracted to both a 12 year old and 17 year old. he's a major protagonist, and it's still played for comedy.

Ruka's name remains consistent, regardless of their current gender. As far as I can recall they never express discomfort over their name. (Some entries on this page use "Luka" - same character, just a localization thing and not a plot point.)

The protagonist gropes Ruka at one point to "prove" their gender. While she happens to be a cis woman in that timeline, it's *very* uncomfortable. A flashback to the original timeline shows a pair of creeps discovering Ruka is *not* a cis woman, and expressing revulsion/harassing them over it.

Ruka's romantic interest in the protagonist is not reciprocated. Okabe gently lets Ruka down, Ruka does not pressure him to change his mind, and they remain close friends afterwards.

Okabe retains his current memories whenever time travel alters the world. Since the story is from his perspective, reality frequently doesn't fit. (e.g. Everyone on the street suddenly disappearing around him, the "facts" of the setting changing with no prior indication, etc.).

The character Luka Urushibara is male and dresses effeminately, often wearing a shrine maiden outfit.

A recurring joke involves the protagonist saying "but he's a guy" when people (including the protagonist himself) comment on Luka's appearance.
