Pochita, the main character's pet is nearly killed along with the main character in the first episode. Ultimately, Pochita gives up his physical form/life to become Main character's heart (literally). It happens once you see MC enter a warehouse and it can be graphic for sensitive ppl.

(will edit as I keep watching) EP2 - A dead seagull is seen, around 14:30, once the characters open the door of the room. The animal is being eaten by a demon. EP3 - A bear literally sliced in half around 14:40. Around 15:10 a cow is seen beheaded. EP 4 - dead birds, cows and bears (quite explicit) right in the beginning.

There is a scene in season 1 ep 8 where drunk Himeno (adult) tries to persuade Denji (minor) to have sex with her, but he denies and she respects it. The scene is not played as a joke, but rather a character growth moment for both of them.

While rape never occurs on screen, Himeno, an adult, brings Denji, a teenager, home with her and asks to have sex with him, though the sex never actually occurs. If the sex were to occur, it would be considered statutory rape, but Denji refuses and they do not have sex.

The first episode contains zombies along with episode 11. devil's need human blood to regenerate and in the case of denji/power it's sort of a grey area but yes human is consumed by other human agacent people.

A villain sacrifices a fingernail (all the way down to the cuticle) every time she summons a gigantic snake. Her fingernail disappears and leaves a bloody blot in its place whenever she does this. She doesn’t react in pain to doing this, but it still may be triggering to some.

I changed my comment because Power is not a minor, though we do not know what her exact age is. Even so, Denji is a 16 year old who gets sexualized a lot, and his biggest desire is to touch a boob

Himeno sacrifices her life to power the ghost devil enough to stop two attackers but this is ultimately in vain and the ghost devil is defeated before it can give much help.

hi! Okay so,
if you want to skip here's the gross parts, the visuals are censored (the sort of mosaic censored) but there's still audio + descriptions of what happens.

Skip these scenes
episode 7 when denji and himeno begin kissing. It's towards the end of the episode so if you want you can just skip to the end. Nothing else really happens other then some back story stuff around denji eating garbage (more v* visuals still censored during the flashback) there is also a scene with denji v* in the toilet it's either at the end of EP 7 or beginning of EP 8. No visual just audio.

If you'd like to skip descriptions/denji talking about what happened skip the beginning segment of EP 8 (I think past the intro is safe)

As a big emetophobe these scenes were not fun. Stay safe!

Himeno, a woman somewhere in her early-mid twenties, offers to have sex to Denji, a 16 year old boy, while she is wasted drunk, despite knowing his age (he literally told her and everyone else present his age only a couple hours ago in fact). Denji comes very close to going through with it but backs out at the last second. She regrets doing this the next morning when she is sober and was glad nothing happened.

Multiple camera close ups on Makima’s ass. A shot of Power in a bikini in the opening, which seemingly offers no purpose as there isn’t anything resembling a beach episode. Denji’s entire motivation is the pursuit of sexual desires such as groping breasts, although he never acts without consent.
