Heard, but not seen. Only two sets of legs are seen from about calf-level, the slap is heard, and the female legs quickly leave the room.

In season 1's "Exes and Ooohs", we meet Moxxie's father, Crimson--throughout the episode he is physically and mentally abusive to Moxxie, and flashbacks prove he's been the same way since Moxxie was small.
In the season 2 premiere, "The Circus," Stolas' father Paimon forces him into an arranged marriage with the shrewish Stella and is implied to be supremely neglectful. We also meet Blitzø's father Cash Buckzo, who not only sells Blitzø to Paimon for literal pocket change but then goes on to demand the child steal as much as he can carry out of the house.

S1:E4 | A character vomits at the 6:27 mark. Her cheeks puff out as she retches, but the camera cuts away as she actually vomits. There are graphic sound effects and the puddle of vomit can be seen on the floor in the subsequent shot.

The O Blitzø's name is silent (I'm guessing he changed it because he doesn't want to be associated with the circus he grew up in), but people constantly disregard this, usually on purpose just to upset him. I'm not sure if this counts as deadnaming, but I'll put it here just to be safe.

In s2 e3 a character drowns on screen, it’s part of a larger flashback scene involving several other deaths and a lot of abuse/manipulation. It was triggering to me and it’s not even something I’m generally triggered by starts at around 13:20 at about 13:57 (the drowning part, the flashback starts at 12:30ish)
The scene is not super important, and mostly is just to demonstrate that moxies dad is abusive

The show centers around demons killing humans for a living, and as such, a lot of the deaths are very graphic and violent.
