One Piece (2023): parents' guide

Frequent sword, gun and superpower fights with splashes and pools of blood and many deaths, though the camera often cuts away. A man is sliced in half, a clown villain splits into floating body parts, and season 2 opens with a massacre of marines.

S-words come up regularly: Plugged In counted one in the first episode and seven in the season 2 premiere. Also ass, hell, bastard, bitch, dick and piss, some misuse of God's name and a middle-finger gesture. Neither review noted an f-word.

Mostly mild: brief kisses, shirtless men and low-cut outfits. One comic scene shows a man's bare backside while he covers his front with a stuffed toy, and two side characters admit they like each other.

Pirates drink rum, whisky and beer, including crew members in their late teens. One character gets sloppy drunk, slurring and vomiting, the crew plays a drinking game with shots of hard liquor, and a marine captain smokes cigars.

A creepy circus clown, sea monsters, near-drownings and executions. Flashbacks hit hardest: a girl sees her adoptive mother shot, a castaway eats his own leg, and in season 2 a dying doctor surrounded by soldiers takes his own life in an explosion.
