References to a great war that preceded the events of the main story are sometimes accompanied with images of the war. Very brief and infrequent in nature.
Some moderate bloody violence occurs in a war setting, including dismembered limbs and pools of blood. These occur mostly in flashbacks, and once in the present.
Flashbacks of gilbert in a pool of his blood while talkingto violet (nothing too graphic.) Episode 8 I believe, is all about war and can be graphic at times, but overall it is a not a gorey show (its about writing letters, lol) yet it is a Masterpiece
