To expand on the previous comment, it's explicitly shown that the dog is completely unharmed, as after you defeat the monster attached to it, it simply runs away.
At the end of some scenes that take place in the Inn, a third character will be shown to have been peering through the window and watching the other two. It's mostly presented as a joke.
No, but in desert levels a Mii may mistake a cactus for a cushion due to heat induced hallucinations, which I imagine could be trigerring for someone who's had a particularly bad trip.
Players will have to fight multiple types of animals on their journey, but these animals do not die; they simply fall over and disappear, or in other cases, get up and run away.
One enemy is a dog, called a Woof-o-The-Wisp, but it isn’t the dog attacking, but rather a spirit coming out of the dog as it sleeps. After the spirit is defeated the dog is okay and runs off.
Rocks can be seen falling in various moments, and a few enemies attack with falling rocks, but your characters don’t die. They “faint” when they run out of HP but can be revived during battle and are okay after the battle ends.
The whole premise of this game is about miis losing their faces and being placed on places where it doesn’t belong. It is very cartoony body horror which I’d say counts.
Not an infant, but the youngest Fab Fairy (who is a child, but not a baby) gets captured by the Dark Lord and turned into a monster, but she’s okay in the end.
Sort of. The main antagonist of the game is revealed to be a spirit of a Mii who lost their face (not going into further detail to avoid spoilers), which is like implied death. His death isn’t seen on screen
More like face dysphoria related to the main villain, who hates their face as revealed in their backstory at the end of the game. No further spoilers though.
Characters sometimes fall into a hole in a random event, but are okay in the end. There also are moments where in a dungeon there’s a rockslide, causing the team to be separated.
The king could be seen as having an eating disorder, as he is seen eating a lot after his daughter is kidnapped and is generally eating in all of his appearances.
The main antagonist somewhat unintentionally killed themselves by ripping their face off, after which the rest of their body deteriorated until just a spirit was left.
Not explicitly stated in game, but considering all that the player went through I wouldn’t be surprised if they have PTSD after the events of the game. Same with various characters who had their faces stolen
There is a random scene in which one of the Miis in the player's current party will stop, turn to the screen, and tell the player about another Mii's behavior.
While characters who go by different pronouns than she her or he him can be misgendered when you put them in the game (or put a male Mii in an always female role or vice versa) this is never required and only happens if the player makes it happen
The relationship system isn’t portrayed as a child-bearing one unlike in Tomodachi Life. It is portrayed relatively romantically for “friendship,” though, which might be slightly questionable if you’re aromantic but I don’t know enough to judge.
it depends on your characters you pick. any character could be black, and if a black party member dies before anyone else, technically it could count? but, it wasn't written explicitly as "the black guy dies".
People can make Miis with offensive names and representing offensive caricatures and post them to the Mii Portal, but not in the game on default, also there is no Mii Portal in the Switch version and as a result you can only view Miis from others by viewing their profile with a specific code.
Yes and no. Two miis can do things together that are implied to be at least somewhat romantic, and since there's no way to tell the game what relationship miis share with each other this can occur between two miis who's real-life counterparts are relatives.
Adding onto that, other Miis will try to comfort a Mii who is crying, which can help them calm down. Such as if a Mii is in the Safe Spot while crying, another Mii may come and say something like “I hope you feel better soon”
The main character and their teammates don’t appear to have a specific home and are always staying at inns, but that doesn’t mean they’re homeless, they’re just traveling.
