It's a CGI animated film, so no real fish are killed during the movie. The director did state in interviews that he gained experience as a sushi chef prior to making the film.

The fish are aware that they're at a restaurant and that they could be butchered and eaten at any time. All the fish deal with the stress of this seemingly hopeless situation in different ways. One fish is especially devastated by the deaths of its tankmates, and there's a scene where the fish almost appears to be crying.

None in the traditional sense. However, the scenes where the flatfish smacks Padak against the walls of the fishtank may feel reminiscent of domestic abuse.

the fish do not have specific ages but one fish has a bit of a naive and childlike demeanor, and they are injured badly in a few scenes resulting in their death

Several fish die. The whole movie is just fish getting cut up.

Yes, this movie is about the fish industry. Fish and crabs are taken from the ocean, caged, cooked and eaten alive, in gorey detail. There are multiple dead bodies shown and killing scenes.

No dogs, so no dog fighting. However, there are scenes where humans pit fish against each other. A kid drops a big fish into a tank with much smaller fish to watch the resulting carnage. The owner of the sushi restaurant feeds edible fish with dead or dying members of their own kind, which the fish eagerly rip apart.

There are numerous shots of dead and dying fish in various states of dismemberment. The most disturbing sequence comes late in the film, when a fish known to the audience is shown dead and partially eaten, with eyes still wide open.

There are no snakes, but an eel character who appears throughout the film might be upsetting to people with a phobia of snake-like creatures.

There's no shaving/cutting of human hair/skin. There is plenty of cutting of fish flesh, and some fish take bites out of each other's tails.

Fish are shown struggling to breathe, and in some cases passing out, when they're out of water for too long.

Yes. There is a flatfish that eats another. Other fish eat each other too, and while technically not cannibalism bc they're different species, it is distressing as they are all sapient and it brings other fish distress too.
There are both nonfatal and fatal examples- the fish have to take bites out of one another to stave off their hunger, and then they end up eating weakened fish offered to them by the owner. Many fish are consumed by a bigger one in a rather shocking scene and (Spoilers) one fish in the tank eats the corpse of another with no remorse, causing the others anguish.

Not on screen. A fish is seen cooking in a pot, but it may have been killed before the cooking started.

No, but there is the fish equivalent of finger/toe mutilation. Fish kept in a crowded tank play a game where the winner gets to bite a piece off of the loser's fins. One fish tries to bite a chunk out of Padak's tail but is unsuccessful. Another fish has damaged fins, implying that he's been victimized repeatedly in the past.

Talking fish are graphically cut up, gutted, and eaten while still alive. However, the humans are not explicitly trying to torture the fish; rather, they're simply indifferent to the fact that the fish are suffering.

A dying fish has its eyes removed and eaten. Only the aftermath is shown: the fish is tossed to the ground with blood seeping from its now-empty eye sockets.

No human children are harmed, and the ages of the fish are somewhat ambiguous. A fish that sounds and acts like a curious child is killed, however, and there are graphic close-ups of the mangled body. Additionally, some cute clownfish with child-like voices are eaten by a larger fish.

It's not kidnapping in the human sense, but the movie is about a captured fish at a sushi restaurant trying to escape back to sea.

while there are no ghosts, the first musical sequence contains abstract and nightmarish imagery, including a giant fish like creature floating through a barren landscape while its body falls apart, which could be seen as ghostly in nature

The closest thing to a jumpscare is a tense scene where the camera rapidly cuts between gruesome close-ups of dismembered fish while creepy music drones on.

A fish slams head-first into glass walls repeatedly, but this is an attempt to break the walls and escape.

No character is outright stated to be mentally ill, but they are under mental distress due to their situation and this constant stress and threat of death leads to the characters mistreating each other and at times becoming violent. They also have to eat other fish, either partially or fully, to survive.

A fish who's on a cutting board and about to be killed panics as he sees firsthand how the other fish in the restaurant are killed, cooked, eaten, and discarded.

several scenes in which the fish are trapped in over crowded tanks and mention a feeling of not being able to breath or move

Several fish are disturbingly eager to engage in cannibalism, but this is implied to be the result of being kept in a constant state of near-starvation with no other food sources.

No suicide per se, but a fish knowingly sacrifices its own life to save another fish.

One fish angrily calls a flatfish a "fatfish," at least in the English subtitles. The flatfish in question looks no fatter or thinner than the rest of its species.

There's no human hate speech. There is, however, a clownfish who acts racist/speciesist toward edible (i.e. non-aquarium) fish.
