injury detail
There are occasional bloody images as a character dreams of seeing dead pigeon which transforms into a dead human figure, both with pools of blood under their heads. In another scene, a character falls from a building into an ornamental pond where some blood clouds the water.
theme
There are scenes of emotional upset arising from various situations which include a character's hearing impairment, bullying and the exclusion of young characters from social circles. Some of this distress leads characters to suicide attempts which are either implied or presented in a stylised and sensitive way.
additional issues
There is also mild and very mild bad language ('pissed off', 'crap', 'Jeez', 'jerk', 'bummer', 'moron', 'damn') and mild suggestiveness in a passing reference to a 'love hotel'.
