After watching the first couple of episodes, my wife and I were considering having our 8-year-old watch it with us. Then I noticed the TV-MA rating.
Not looking for spoilers, but like, is the show gonna take a bit of a turn, eventually? There hasn’t been anything CLOSE to TV-M-worth thus far, in my mind.
The manga had some bare chests without nipples drawn. I expect trigger to match the manga on that, and that to be the reason for the rating.
As already stated by others, the story has some really tragic elements, though it doesn’t get very graphic.
No-one gets brutally ripped to shreds and devoured by a monster, the orc massacre is about as violent as it gets.,
