A “playboy” character is present in the main cast and makes some less than polite but not too bad comments about how hot/cute other girls are.

People in the anime keep framing Kosei's mother's incredible verbal, emotional, and physical abuse as "done out of love", and convince him to forgive her.

Kousei has been shown to have been gaslighted by his mother to achieve perfectly as a piano prodigy, which made him give up on his musical piano for several years stopping as a little kid.

The main character was abused by a helicopter mother as a child to focus on his piano skills to the exclusion of everything else — breaks, friends, hobbies, and so on. A fairly common issue with the gifted — whether mathematically gifted, creatively gifted or physically gifted, to be used as a way for a parent or two to gain prestige.

there are certainly a few scenes that sexualize some of the teenage characters, but the nudity in the opening isnt one of them and is more so artistic

One of the primary plot hooks is that the main character has performance anxiety to the point that he can no longer hear his own notes.

Not that exact wording, but a character asks another character if he wants to do a suicide pact. She later says she's joking but it's implied she was serious and backpedaled

no but characters skip meals on more than one occasion (because they're too immersed in their practice or they're too stressed etc) so that could be a trigger

There is indeed blood in the show, but not from violent means. So there is blood but no gore.
