In the fourth episode, a character finds a dirty and damaged robot dog that has been abandoned by its owner; the sequence is framed the same as if it were a dirty and injured living dog.
In the fifth episode, a character finds a kitten out on its own and speculates that it has been abandoned by its owner, but the story moves on before that's confirmed or refuted.

Several of the robots' creators/parental figures are abusive, in particular Pluto's "father", Professor Abullah, and Atom's "father", Doctor Tenma.
(Also -- I'm not sure if this is the right category for this, but I couldn't see a better one -- in the seventh episode there is a corrupt Child Services official who accepts a bribe to let a child be fostered by someone who doesn't mean him well despite several obvious red flags.)

An antagonist controls a huge swarm of tiny cockroach-like robots, which first appear in the third episode and appear in nearly all subsequent episodes. Includes disturbing imagery like a horde of cockroach-robots emerging from the mouth of a human-looking robot.

The second episode features imagery that resembles a hanging and may be disturbing. A murder victim's body is found suspended from a tree, with the dangling feet shown first. A wider shot shows that the rope is looped under the body's arms, not around the neck, and it's later established that he died before being suspended, but it's not initially clear that it isn't a hanging.

A recurring character is a damaged robot with one of his eyes hanging out of its socket in a way that evokes a human eye doing the same thing.
In the fifth episode, a robot character loses an eye during a fight; the loss is not shown, only the damage afterward. Later in the same fight, there is a moment where he is threatened with a sharp object held near his other eye. Later in the fifth episode, another robot character has an eye damaged (among other injuries) after an explosion. There is a similar sharp-object-near-eye moment in the eighth episode when another character fights the same antagonist.
In the eighth episode, a robot character has an eye destroyed during the climactic battle.

In the seventh episode, children are in peril at several points, but survive, and the child who was in a coma regains consciousness.

In the fifth episode, there is a sequence involving a criminal repeatedly kidnapping and murdering children (robot children, but robots are people in this story). The actual kidnappings are not depicted; the focus is on the police responding and trying to find the kidnapper.
Part of the seventh episode revolves around a child being taken from his family and held as a hostage.

The "Central Asian Conflict" that forms an important part of the backstory is modelled on the USA's invasion and occupation of Iraq following 9/11, including a character modelled on Saddam Hussein. There is however no event directly equivalent to 9/11 itself (the conflict begins at the point where the "United States of Thracia" accuses "Persia" of secretly building weapons of mass destruction).

A lot of the devices that are used to hook up humanoid robots to machines for maintenance, chip readers, etc. may be considered body horror for some as many of these robots appear human otherwise. Often devices are inserted into their "skin".

A robot character is revealed to have several personalities, with the friendliest and most often public-facing alter unaware that the others exist. It's not technically D.I.D., being a fictional condition with no direct human equivalent, but it does draw on common tropes from D.I.D. misrepresentation in fiction.

Many explosions, but none are identified as nuclear. There is a very large explosion in episode 7 that may be reminiscent of a nuclear explosion, though in-story it's explicitly stated to be something else. Part of the plot of the final episode involves locating and disabling a bomb with a technobabbly name that can be understood as metaphorically equivalent to, if not actually, a nuclear bomb; it is disabled before it explodes.
