ReportDDD Official Review
Pre-teens, teens, and young adults are going to love the songs, dancing, and fight sequences in this one. Adults should also be able to find something to appreciate in this multi-genre Animated Musical/Action/Fantasy/Romance smash hit (Especially those adults who grew up in the era of TRL Girl-Bands and Boy-Bands…or those adults who still enjoy repeat viewings of the Buffy The Vampire Slayer’s “Once More, with Feeling” episode).
Pretty tame with the triggers (PG-level violence…even the blood is sparkly), though parents may need to prepare explanations to the youngsters for those demon soul-stealing scenes.
I now need a Derpy and Sussie spin-off expeditiously!
Synopsis

There are a couple demon animal things left not in the demon world at the end of the movie. It's not really shown as if they were abandoned, but it is implied that their owner has passed away (unless you interpret the presence of the animals as if the owner was still around. It's hard to really say since there's theories of the owner still being alive.) The animals are capable of handling themselves and don't seem to need their owner's help to be taken care of. It does not seem like a true abandonment scene to me and it is not intentional.

One character leaves their family seemingly suddenly and without explanation or goodbyes. This scene is shown a couple of times throughout the movie.
There's a few times a character leaves in heated situations. Most of the times this character re-meets up with the people they left. One instance is left without a resolution (character runs away from an argument kind of situation and it is not shown if the character comes back to the other person again or not - basically left up to the viewers discretion or for a second movie). As other's have mentioned, there is a parental death of one of the main characters that is mentioned in the movie, but this happens in their childhood and is not shown on screen. It is not mentioned whether this death is sudden/the mother left without a goodbye or not. The child that is orphaned is taken into the care of a close friend of the parent and is raised by her. Some demons leave without a goodbye (are implied to be dead), but no protagonist characters die.

There is one scene of a child being told to hide a core part of themselves, something similar to being told to cover up a nasty scar. It does make an impact on their self esteem and can be seen as abusive.
A child is left behind by their older brother. They are left with their mother, but the child is clearly distressed. This child is shown to be living in poverty and it is said that the mother and child are worse off after the brother leaves.
One scene shows a child being hunted by a demon. Nothing happens to the child and they are rescued, but they do end up briefly backed up against a building hiding behind an adult. It is implied that without the help they get, the child and adult's soul would have been taken by the demon. This scene does not last for long and the child is soon shown as reassured by the rescuing person and no longer afraid.

There is a being that tries to control all the other demons. This being tells demons they are not good enough, they don't deserve certain things, reminds them of past bad doings, and so on. This could be seen as gaslighting. This being also speaks to demons in their heads and is shown as fairly manipulative and abusive towards the demons.

Rape is not mentioned explicitly or shown in any manner. It's possible to interpret a character's child as a result of this due to how they met the father never being explained at all, however the relationship between mother/father is entirely up to the viewer since there is zero explanation whatsoever, so whatever you think the relationship is, is how you interpret it. Mother and father are from rival groups of people.
SPOILERS: A character is born to a human mother and a demon father. It is not said how the mother met the father, or how she had a child with a demon. The mother was a hunter of demons and a friend of the mother says she never expected the child to be part demon (Kind of implying she can't believe that her friend would be with a demon, though forbidden romance is a theme we see later, so it could also be that she wasn't expecting her friend and a demon to be in love. This friend ends up taking the child in once the mother passes and says something of she was caring for the one piece of the mother left - completely leaves out anything about caring about the father). The movie does not go into any details of the relationship with the mother and father, but due to general dislike of demons in this world, the viewer MAY interpret the relationship between the mother and father in a negative way. Again, it never explicitly says anything and it's all left up the the viewer's interpretation as how the child came about. There is a hinted romance between a human and demon in the movie, so the movie does imply that it is possible for a demon to love a human. Apparently there's some concept art by the makers of the movie showing the two parents lovingly holding the child. As far as the movie itself goes however, it's entirely up to how the viewer interprets! It's a PG movie, so nothing is hinted at in a way that would be inappropriate for children. The movie just literally never explains the father at all or how the mother/father fell in love (or didn't fall in love). All we know is a child is born half human, half demon, to a mother that was a demon hunter.

No slapping, but there are fight scenes in which demon women get hit with objects or killed by the demon hunters. They are shown as slightly inhuman looking - horns, odd colored skin, extra eyes, etc. There is violence against demons, and the main hunters of these demons are normal women who do end up with scratches and such from fighting. I think they get thrown a couple of times. This is all shown in a fantasy/comical way but if you are sensitive to fight scenes then you may wish to skip them (they are easy to tell when they are coming up).

There is not over the top gore. Gore that is shown is more fantasy/comic like, though some things may still be sensitive to certain viewers. There are several fight scenes throughout the movie though. The first fight scene (airplane scene), in my opinion is a tad graphic for a PG movie. Demons are shown clearly hurt, getting smacked repeatedly in the face with objects (the face is not shown, it is hidden behind the side of a chair, but the action is clearly shown), and demons are shown being flung against windows. There is also a more obvious death on screen. DESCRIPTION: One moment in this scene shows a demon being cut in half. It is shown through the window of the plane, as like a shadow of what is happening/ not directly showing it, but it does clearly show the demon not whole and blood (highlighted as a purple) between the parts. The demon's hands/face shadow show as if they are in pain. I would not recommend letting a very young child see this part, or if the viewer is sensitive to amputation/severing of parts. END DESCRIPTION
The other fight scenes are less graphic and while there is still bodily harm to demons, they seem to stick more to the "poof" away or dissolve kind of deaths rather than something more graphic.
The movie is rated PG and most parts I don't think are excessive, but it entirely depends on the viewer if the fantasy violence is too much. If the viewer is very young or sensitive to these things, I would recommend at least skipping the airplane fight scene, and maybe most of the fight scenes depending on the severity of the sensitivity.

Not that I recall, but demons are killed and do receive head injuries. (Blood is shown as a sparkly purplish and violence is more on the fantasy/comic side). I want to say at least one demon was stabbed in the head (one character is holding the demon against a wall and another character stabs them with a spear. I think it was in the head but I don't quite remember.)

YES! The comments saying no must have missed it. It's fast and lasts maybe a second or two, but a demon is kicked, having some of their teeth fly out in the beginning of the movie. (Airplane scene, after they jumped out of the plane). There may be a few more instances, but that's the only one I noticed.

Not amputation, but there are scenes where demons are cut into and then sort of dissolve. There is not really stuff where it's super super graphic (demons have sparkly purplish/pink blood) and most scenes kind of "poof" them away. If the viewer has a sensitivity to severed body parts I would suggest skipping the airplane scene once fighting begins (that has a slightly more graphic death. If you have a phobia of body parts separated or gore that scene may not be for you.) This movie is rated PG, however if the viewer is sensitive to violence or very blood phobic (sparkly purple blood would still trigger the phobia) then the fights may not be something you want to watch.
^DESCRIPTION/ SPOILER: there is one scene in the airplane where a demon is shown cut in half with some blood (sparkle purple stuff) in between. It is shown through the window of the plane, like the shadows of what happens so you don't actually see the act but an outline of what happens, but if the viewer is sensitive to body parts not being intact I would highly recommend skipping at least that scene. I'm sensitive to amputation and this one part bothered me, but the rest of the movie was fine. It's not an actual amputation (not a limb), but it was close enough to me. It is a PG movie, not realistic blood, etc, but again, just use your own discretion with that scene if you think it might be something that would bother you.

One of the members of HUNTR/X has problems with her voice, and when she attempts to reach a high note, her voice cracks, she can't sing, and she coughs. This is resolved by the end of the film. As someone else mentioned, characters also suffer from brief panic attacks and hyperventilate.

There are multiple stabbings, but they are all played in a fantasy style. Weapons are not realistic and basically look like glowy bluish-purple glittery machetes and daggers. There is no gore, just puffs of sparkly smoke.

Spoilers:
A parent is said to be dead before the events that are happening in the movie - one of the adults had their mother pass at a very young age. This is not shown on screen and how she died is not said.
A main character sacrifices themselves in a fight.
Demons die often throughout. There is also human's souls stolen, which it is not explicitly said or shown whether this results in death later on or if it just makes them numb or a demon or something. Humans are also shown to be missing (a news report on the number of missing persons going up); it is not said what happened to these people. I think it's implied they became demons, but this part could be interpreted differently by other viewers.

There is a few eating scenes in the movie. They don't last long but there are some noodles slurped or talking with a mouth full. I didn't find the eating sounds over the top, but I also don't have an issue with it. Crunching, chewing, slurping doesn't last long, and mostly the characters make happy noises/hums while eating.

One of the characters has patterns on their skin that they're extremely ashamed of, and for a portion of the movie, that character has a side quest of sorts to get rid of their patterns. Another character tells them to cover up and hide their patterns. By the end of the film, the character is no longer ashamed and shows their patterns freely.

No, but during anxiety moments one character grasps at their turtle neck zipper, pulling it down, and throws off their jacket in a hurry. They seem overwhelmed by their clothing touching them.
There is a scene in an elevator, but it is not shown as a claustrophobic scene.

A character hates the "patterns" that appear on her skin, as they mark her as half demon. They are a source of guilt and shame to her.

A few instances of panic attack like scenes, some down kind of scenes (like self doubt, maybe a little depression), but nothing overly shown as a mental illness. Down scenes don't last for long and are not necessarily representative of depression, just more a character feeling a little down due to not succeeding how they thought they would and feeling pressure.

No, but there is an attempted suicide like scene. There is no acting on self harm, but a character does at one point heavily imply that they wish another character had killed them and asks this character to "do what they should have done", while trying to give them a weapon to do so. This character does not self harm on screen (and is not implied to self harm physically), and the other character refuses to do any harm to them. The character leaves physically okay.

The main character Rumi does ask her caregiver Celine to ‘destroy’ her after her patterns are exposed and holds out her sword for her to do it. Celine does refuse though.

The main characters make an entire "diss track" song to insult demons as much as possible, which does have some implication of being seen as hate speech in the story.

Movie was primarily created by an actual Korean despite being made partially for the Western market and while there’s still occasional moments that exaggerates Asian characteristics for comedy such as the scene where HUNTR/X and Saja Boys try to bow to each other with them going back and forth trying to bow harder to show the other resident far as my research there’s nothing that one could call egregiously offensive.

Not really. Some characters admire the abs on the male idols. The idols don't seem to have an issue with it and one is shown tracing their abs to give as an autograph to fans.

There's a scene near the end of the movie where the main characters are relaxing in the bath house and therefore nude. They are submerged in water though, and nothing below the shoulders is shown.

Not explicitly shown. One character comes from a poor background in olden times and may have had periods of homelessness. Their family is implied to be worse off after an event, so it is possible that they became homeless but it is not shown or stated explicitly that they are.

Not too sad. It's a happy ending overall. A main character does die by sacrificing themself, but they seem happy with the choice and even say they are "free" now (they didn't feel as though they were free before and are a demon, so this could be seen as their soul getting to rest now). The ending has an upbeat feel and the one main character death is not played as a very tragic/unfortunate thing. It is a bit sad/emotional in the moment, but in my opinion it does not make the movie into a sad one.

There is demon blood, which is a sparkly purplish color. A couple times human characters are shown with scratches that are a little red, but nothing deep and no dripping blood, more mild scratches/scrapes than anything else. Demons are shown being hurt, but in a fantasy/comic way. It's not overly gory, but I would watch out for the airplane scene if you are sensitive to gore - see Is there excessive gore for more details.
