The main character was emotionally abused by his father as a child, this is not shown often besides some flashbacks in the Iki island DLC, it is not shown in the main game.

And two other characters from the main game, who are a brother and sister, also described their mother as being alcoholic and physically abusive when they were children, but none of it is shown on screen.

In the DLC of the game, a major plot point is that a new tribe of Mongols are forcing people to take drugs which give them violent hallucinations, however there is no voluntary drug use.

If you consider war horses/dogs a form of abuse or manip, slightly.

No dog fighting rings, but the Mongols do use dogs that you will have to kill to progress.

There are no cops in the game as it is set in Kamakura period Japan and the closest thing to police officers are the Samurai, but they are shown accurately, not glorified. Oftentimes the game will point out that many samurai have failed to protect people and have abused their power on ordinary civilians.

(Spoiler)

At the end of the game, the main character's uncle requests to be honored with a warrior's death, in modern context this may be seen as an assisted suicide, but it is entirely optional and the player has the choice not to go through it. There is no gore, just a single stabbing noise

There are two possible endings depending on which option you choose. One is definitely sadder than the other, but IMO both are sad.
