The main characters are implied to be underage. They're exploited (both financially and sexually) at their place of employ. They get physically assaulted by one of their parental figures (if you can call them that?) at home in one scene

For whoever needs timestamps it starts at 56:17 and ends at 57:25 but the aftermath is shown starting from 58:05 until 1:02:09 (it contains a musical number and is inter-cut w another scene)

A bird has its head bitten off and spat out on stage. It's at the end of the punk performance around 1h5m.

If you consider a finger being inserted into an opening that looks like a vagina near the base of the tail, then, yes.

To skip, fast forward after "what do you suggest?" around 11:16 to 11:50 when you see an entertainer doing archery with their feet.

Here's what happens:

They'll show one mermaid's pubic slit right after he says "the slit in the tail" (11:23)
It is then probed with a finger (11:40)

Scene changes at 11:50 showing an entertainer doing archery with their feet.

More info, if needed: There is not much reaction but a chuckle from either mermaid when this happens, however, it is heavily implied that both mermaids are "young" so take that into consideration if you have triggers around pedophilia.
He also lightly taps higher up on the girl's tail around 12:35 in a vaguely predatory fashion.

Some things involving gashes in the mermaids' tails could be interpreted as such. Their human forms are represented as being devoid of genitals and are compared to Barbies for that reason

sort of? (SPOILERS) the mermaids eat people's hearts. they're not human, but look like they are, so it may be upsetting if you find cannibalism upsetting.

(SPOILERS) Two men are seen kissing, and are both killed and have their hearts eaten. A woman has sex with another woman, and ends up dying. None of the deaths are motivated by homophobia.
