Sex & Nudity

Moderate
4 of 5 found this moderate
In story mode, in one of the scenes we can see Cerebella in a revealing black suit with bunny ears, she was sitting on a man, probably this is the most explicit scene in the entire video game.
In female characters, during attacks with or feet or other actions, you can clearly see panties.
In the game itself, sex is completely absent, but there is a pronounced sexual subtext that consists of sexualized female characters. Most of the female characters have big breasts and some have revealing outfits or winning poses.
The game has a character like Eliza, she is a diva working in an elite nightclub, so to match her work, her outfits is quite open, if you look at it, you can understand that the upper part of her clothes covers only her nipples, leaving most of her breasts open, so given her image, the winning pose is that she changes outfits, some her outfits are also quite revealing.
Since the game has an age limit of "T" (12+), it is obvious that there will be no sex in the game, however, there is a pronounced sexual references in the game, which consists in sexualized female characters whose breasts are shaking and moving, and there are also some scenes in which they stand in explicit poses or angles in which we see them underwear, no sex, just hints and some provocative outfits.
Valentine and Cerebella have copious amounts of cleavage showing. It is also occasionally implied that Valentine uses her bosom to hide weapons.
Valentine's victory pose consists of her bending over, putting a thermometer between her breasts, and breaking the tip off of the thermometer.
There's some occasional innuendo during cutscenes, like a man grabbing Filia's bottom before he's interrupted, and Parasoul's younger sister poking her in the breast to annoy her.
In the 2nd Encore edition, there is a gallery mode that allows players to view stills from the story as well as other artwork that can be mildly suggestive. Still no explicit nudity.

Violence & Gore

Moderate
3 of 4 found this moderate
Double is a massive monster that can turn into anything, during her idle bubbles of blood come out
At one point in the story of the Big Band being beaten, we briefly see his body and a little blood looks sad but not particularly cruel.
Painwheel was tortured because of this her face is covered with scars and hidden under a mask. Spikes and needles also appear from her body during the attack. She uses a propeller that is embedded in her spine to cut and saw through the enemy.
Moderate non-graphic but frequent violence provides the game with an age limit of "T" (12+), there is violence in the game with minimal blood that appears only during some receptions.
You beat your enemies with all possible types of attacks, when you start attacking the enemy, we can see small flashes and the character's attack itself, the enemies scream in pain and also repel, there is no blood during attacks, however, it may be present during the use of techniques, for example, characters such as Valentine, Miss Fortune, Painwheel.
Violence can be a little more intense when using special character techniques, for example, Parasoul can use his umbrella as a flamethrower and set you on fire, Filia and Fuqua can use their hair and legs as drills and drill the enemy, and Cerebella can hit the enemy several times on the ground and then throw the enemy up so that he falls and plunges into the sword which is equipped in her boot, etc.
Miss Fortune has a special technique that is completely bloody, during which she separates her parts of the body from each other, after which, after a few seconds, she connects during the connection of all the limbs, there is a surge of blood in the form of a grimace.
You can play the mode against a real player in this case, after defeating the opponent, the dead body of the character will lie until the end of the match.
Most of the violence is mild, although Painwheel and Ms. Fortune have some pretty bloody attacks.
Most attacks in the game result in a loud smacking noise and a bright light to indicate a hit. The fighting can also get fairly intense when players use powerful combo moves.

Profanity

Mild
3 of 3 found this mild
None spoken, but there is some infrequent mild swearing during the game's cutscenes in the form of text (damn, bastard, etc.).
The 2nd Encore edition of the game adds full voiceovers for all characters in the game's story mode, so the above mentioned swearing will be spoken as well as be written on screen.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

Mild
3 of 3 found this mild
According to the official dossiers about the characters, you can read that some of them like alcohol.
Peacock is often seen smoking a cigar.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

Mild
3 of 3 found this mild
Many of the characters in the game look intimidating, besides, skeletons or skulls often appear in the game, by the way, there is also a skull on the game logo.
The game has a moderately gloomy tone, some scenes can be sad or sad, and some are moderately cruel, such as the death of characters, given the assigned age limit of "T" (12+) for scenes of violence, blood, and partial nudity, therefore this game is not designed for children, but rather for teenagers.
The death scenes of some characters can be quite emotional or sad.
Marie is a rather intimidating character, she has red eyes and an aggressive disposition, she is responsible for most of the deaths because she is the main villain of the game.
Painwheel and Double are very bizarre and disturbing characters, and may frighten younger players.
The game has some very dark story elements that be off-putting for younger players.
