Depending on whether you consider 'for spectacle' in the sense of a scene being added for shock value, or that a character was brutalized with the in universe meaning, there is a point in the game towards the end that a villain brutalizes a woman

There's a gratuitous amount of violent SFX within the game, including one particular abnormality battle in which one can hear a grinding and tearing sound throughout their entire turn, up until it ends, which repeats every time the ability is activated.
