Well, it's very hard to call what happens animal abuse. Yes they are technically animals, but they are so intelligent that they sit more on the gray area of like, furries. If you wouldn't consider furry on furry violence to be animal abuse, then this isn't animal abuse

Depending on your definition of 'cannibalism'. A bird character, who has human-level intelligence and attends school, is murdered and cooked off screen. His corpse is sent to the human main character as a gift from his murderer under the guise of being a 'Christmas turkey', which she eats without hesitation.

Though actual life stages and lifespawns of characters in the game may be debatable, clearly some characters were very young when they died. There is also a massacre in an orphanage.

The game is entirely still visuals and text. I don't think a non-moving visual can really be a jumpscare. You control the pace at which everything pops up, although there are some scary images that appear somewhat unexpectedly, it's slow enough that I would in no way consider it a jumpscare

Hitori/Nanaki-sensei is heavily implied to be psychotic and suffer from a dissociative disorder. Hitori shoots Shuu thrice.
Many other characters are also implied to be mentally ill, and many characters have contributed to injury or death of another.

There is a character who is somewhat implied to be autistic/very easily read that way, who is pretty heavily abused, however the abuse ultimately has nothing to do with whether or not the character has autism. So no autism specific abuse, but if just seeing an autistic character be abused in general is a trigger for you, I'd say proceed with some caution.

Crossdressing is common, and while it is often approached humorously, it's very respectful. No jokes are ever made at the crossdressing characters' expense, and they aren't especially embarrassed by it. The humor is more "We're playing dress up and it's silly" than any sort of transphobic joke. There are multiple gender non-conforming characters, and at least one that is heavily implied to be transgender. Gender is approached with a very open mind.

There is no homophobia or transphobia. The hints of ableism are so minor as to be questionable if it counts at all. There is significant classism. While there is no racism between human races, there is racism between different types of bird, as well as between humans and birds. None of the fantasy racism is allegorical to racism in our own world

There is no targeted hate crime towards a character solely for being LGBTQ+. A lot of characters end up dead/injured in many endings, and majority of the characters happen to be coded as LGBTQ+.

There are a couple of sexual references in the game, but not many. A bird character mentions that his species reaches sexual maturity quickly while flirting with the protagonist in once scene, pornography is mentioned in another, and necrophilia is alluded to in a certain ending.
