In one scene the villain turns invisible and starts hitting a hero monster, but to onlookers he appears to be comically jerking around.
additional issues
There are scenes in which colourful monsters 'scare' children, but these moments are not intended to actually scare young viewers. Chase sequences place an emphasis on excitement and humour rather than threat, and while the child character is occasionally scared of the villain the heroes are there to protect and comfort her. In a couple of sequences, characters are threatened as they are put into the seat of a machine which tries to extract their screams by sucking them out through their mouths, but human girl is quickly saved when confronted with the machine.

There are a few uses of very mild terms such as 'jerk'.
rude humour
There are as few moments of rude humour, including when a monster has its hair shaved off, leaving it 'nude', and when a character misunderstands why a snow cone is yellow.
