Early in the movie there is sexual harassment.

Sophie is cornered by two soldiers in an alley. She is afraid and they are sexually harrassing her. Howl rescues her and then tells her not to hold it against them, they aren’t that bad.

Not in the usual ways, but Sophie’s curse is a little reminiscent of dysmorphia.
SPOILER
Sophie is a young woman who is cursed to make her old and unable to discuss the curse. When she is first cursed she’s horrified by her face in the mirror. When she falls asleep she reverts to her real age.

Yes. The villain is fat and there’s a scene where she’s made to go up a long staircase, sweating profusely.

The Witch of the Waste preys on young men and eats their hearts, so there’s a mild repeated theme.
