violence
A giant mermaid flips Ruby with a tail, sending her flying headfirst into a rock which knocks her out. Other fight scenes include masked blows during a prolonged fight scene between Ruby and an evil giant mermaid. However, there is limited detail.
threat and horror
An adolescent mermaid transforms into a scary giant evil mermaid, and there are scenes in which she rises menacingly from the sea and causes scared people to flee. In another scene, Ruby becomes entangled in harpoon lines whilst being pursued by a tugboat. Although there are ultimately reassuring outcomes, these are occasionally delayed rather than rapid.
language
There is implied bad language in a scene in which a character describes herself as "a mother-flippin mermaid", and there are also milder terms ('screw', 'OMG').
theme
Scenes of emotional upset include those in which Ruby is unhappy that she has grown to gigantic proportions. However, her mother reassures her that she will return to normal size. There is also a comic scene in which Ruby says she's having a panic attack after she is told that it's her destiny to be a kraken queen.
