THE DEER KING is a Japanese fantasy drama anime film, set in a war-torn kingdom ravaged by a mysterious disease, in which a man adopts a young orphan.

violence
People are shot with arrows and a man’s arm is severed in battle, resulting in strong bloody detail. There are further spurts of blood when people are attacked and bitten by fantastical savage dogs. We see a dog carrying a heavily bloodied toddler in its jaws, but the child is saved shortly afterwards.
injury detail
A man digs his fingers into a bite wound on his leg, making it stream blood. A sick man vomits a large amount of blood, which pools on the floor. There are moderate images of dead and dying people with large purple lesions on their skin.
additional issues
Scenes of threat include fantastical animal attacks, and a sequence in which people are ambushed in a misty forest by stilt-walking assailants. Other issues include non-graphic scenes of animal hunting.
