Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

- Some drug use, and casual smoking and drinking.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- As this series is a psychological thriller, it has many intense and potentially frightening scenes, the deeper meaning of which would likely be lost on adolescent viewers. The latter half of the series is generally much darker.
- The controversial eighth episode, "Happy Family Planning", follows three individuals, including a little girl, as they cheerfully and flippantly attempt suicide multiple times. A man who has thrown himself in front of a train is shown walking around mangled. One particular scene in which the characters attempt to hang themselves in the woods has elicited much concern and has been censored by some networks.
- The tenth episode, "Mellow Maromi", deals heavily with murder. The bodies of several workers at an animation studio who have been killed at their desks are shown in great detail and for relatively lengthy stretches of time as the Maromi mascot breaks the fourth wall and tells viewers their job description.
