Kubo mesmerizes the people in his village with his magical gift for spinning wild tales with origami. When he accidentally summons an evil spirit seeking vengeance, Kubo is forced to go on a quest to solve the mystery of his fallen samurai father and his mystical weaponry, as well as discover his own magical powers.
This movie contains 16 potentially triggering events.
Happens at least a few times. One of the villains fights with a very long chain, which they sometimes use to wrap around their opponent and bind them. There's also a fight scene with a giant who holds their opponent in their giant fist. I think there are probably other examples I'm forgetting.
We see dead fish at the marketplace near the beginning of the film, and then later two fish are shot with arrows by characters who are looking for dinner. Also there's a lengthy scene where two characters take shelter inside a whale carcass.
There's a moment in the first few minutes where a character bashes her head on a rock due to a wave crashing into her. This ends up being important to her characterization later due to its lasting effects.
The main character had his eye taken out when he was a baby (this isn't shown). He wears an eyepatch for the rest of the movie. The antagonists want to take his other eye. (SPOILERS: Kubo stabs the Moon King's eye.)
No but gagging sound at 29:20 for 3 seconds when he has to eat a soup. He then can't drink it and spit it all out at 29:52 for a couple seconds only. Sound was triggering to me althought visual was ok.
Kubo mentions that he used to call his monkey charm "Mr. Monkey". When said charm comes to life, the monkey is female, and she mentions that "If I were alive at the time, I would have been offended". No malicious misgendering.
In kind of a fantasy register. The villains are gods who look down on humanity with contempt, talking about how worthless and pathetic mortal lives are. At one point a villain refers to an (actual) monkey character as a filthy ape.
