The main male character is seen in his underwear. This was in order to cross the river. Brief and not meant to be suggestive.

Some mild innuendo from the local townswomen towards a handsome young man.

A few references to women working in the smelting industry being recruited from the local brothels, but only in the English dub.

Many women wear loose clothing that displays cleavage while working the bellows in an iron ore refinery.

Many people attempt to shoot a teen girl. One of the bullets hits her mask. The shot shatters a mask she is wearing and does not harm her.

Arms and legs get chopped or shot off, with the bone and muscle shown however it is fairly brief.

Although spread out, it does get quite brutal at times.

A man is decapitated and blood is seen pouring out of the neck before the corpse falls over.

Although the violence is detailed, it is pretty brief and spread out.

A pretty graphic PG-13 movie. There is decapitation, dismemberment and even gore.

Although animated, there are several battle scenes throughout the film. These scenes can show human cruelty. A notable scene features samurai raiding a village and slaughtering innocent people. This scene alone features decapitation and several limbs being cut off and man swinging his sword at a woman's back. Her backpack protects her from being killed.

A man has his arm cut off with a sword, and another man is shot in the chest with an arrow, though little detail is seen due to it being far away and it's fairly brief.

Many instances of men being shot with arrows and guns, but blood is not shown.

A man is shown being shot from the back with a gun, but the bullet passes through him. The wound still bleeds through his clothes. Eventually, plenty of blood is seen spilling all over him and he soon passes out from blood loss.

One character asks if soup tastes like "Donkey Piss". In the actual Japanese version, the character simply says that it tastes like hot water.

Japanese version: two uses of d*mn

English version: About 5 uses of "damn," a few "bastards," 1 use of "piss," 2 uses of "Oh my God"

Some name-calling, but nothing too bad (i.e. "wolf girl," "idiot," "moron," "ruler of beasts," "dope," "dumb," etc.)

Some characters drink sake, as was common in the time period.

This movie isn't like other Studio Ghibli movies, it's very intense and rather violent throughout, rather than humorous.

This Movie is very violent but all violence/gore is animated

The film contains moderate violence but briefly.

A character is placed under a curse which appears as a black-violet scar on his arm. As the curse progresses the scar spreads as far as his back and chest; at times it becomes agitated and causes the arm to swell grotesquely.

There are some very creepy looking creatures.
