violence
Characters are slashed and stabbed with swords, spraying blood into the air. During a battle scene characters are shot, struck with arrows and hit with rocks. There are undetailed beheadings, sight of severed heads and scenes with dancing headless torsos.
rude humour
Crude humour includes characters using the 'testical counterattack' technique during fight sequences which involves sitting on each other's faces. In one instance a man's opponent reportedly 'pokes his anus' to get free. These moments do not include strong visual detail. There is a brief illustration of a naked woman with her legs open and her genitals partially obscured.
flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
There is infrequent use of strong language ('f**k') and milder terms ('bastard', 'shit', 'bullshit', 'ass', 'asshole', 'balls'), moments of moderate threat, and infrequent drug misuse in which characters smoke an unidentified substance from an oversized bamboo pipe and others become intoxicated after ingesting a fantastical fruit.
