* {{Squick}}: The [[FlayingAlive reveal]] of just how the giant puppets are actually made. A simple vocal description of the process would have been plenty terrible on its own but then the anime actually goes and shows a few scenes of the skin harvesting in action. Best to avoid eating while watching this one if you have a particularly weak stomach.

** The many ''wonderful'' [[NightmareFace Nightmare Faces]] are a fantastic source of this as well. People getting gruesomely butchered like cattle by giant mechanical puppets is already horrifying enough without them making faces that cause them to look like weird demonically distorted goat people. Even the two main characters aren't immune from this.

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Manajiri is clearly supposed to be a heroic character who helps Rangiku on her quest to stop Lord Karimata and save everyone from his reign of terror. He's also a grizzled warrior who acts pretty flippant about the horrors being inflicted on children by Karimata and even attempts to sexually assault the female lead while she's bathing, only relenting when she more or less consents to it if it'll help persuade him to help her on her quest. While he ultimately backed down it's hard to see such a character as anything other than a selfish asshole at best and a complete and total creep at worst.

** Rangiku's own father as well. Certain scenes paint their relationship in a positive light and he did seem to love his daughter very much, clearly making him out to be a sympathetic character, if not an outright good one. Then the viewer is treated to that whole "flaying the skin off my young daughter to make puppets" bit and... yeah, it's pretty hard to see him as anything other than an abusive scumbag asshole who got what he deserved.

* NightmareFuel: '''Everything''' about poor Rangiku's backstory. She had the flesh harvested off her back at a young age by her ''own father'' just so he could create puppets with it and then an [[FromBadToWorse even worse asshole]] comes along, murders her douchebag dad and is now terrorizing the land with his army of evil soldiers and puppets. This leaves Rangiku as little more then a wandering vagrant desperate to find a way to get her revenge on the evil lord who almost murdered her and ruined her (already pretty shitty) life even more than it was before. It's a major wonder that she hasn't completely snapped after everything she's been through!
