1* The end of Chapter 3 has some severe MoodWhiplash where, after an uplifting scene of Nanba and Ichiban celebrating their new home, the thug who was hired by the Geomijul to intimidate a bar whose owner had defied them is tortured and executed for his failure.
2* The Geomijul in general is considered by many in-universe as [[TheDreaded the most intimidating]] of the Ijin Three, and for good reason. Virtually nothing is known about them, as they keep all their operations top secret and their members don't have any way to be identified, [[TheyLookJustLikeEveryoneElse dressing and acting like normal civilians]] right up until they strike. They have a strict policy of abducting, torturing, and murdering anyone that gets too close to their headquarters, and as Ichiban and co learn, they do ''not'' forget any slight they suffer, willing to wait a ''long'' time for the chance to take their revenge.
3* Sunlight Castle. Far from the elderly resort that is billed as, it is in fact essentially a giant prison where the Seiryu Clan torture and murder anyone who can't pay their debts. Especially since the Castle ''exclusively'' targets elderly civilians, a ''major'' taboo for the Yakuza.
4* At the end of Chapter 4, Ichiban, Nanba and Adachi return to Otohime Land to report to Nonomiya that Nanoha and her father are saved from the Seiryu Clan, only to discover that Nonomiya has been ''hanged''.
5* Sawashiro graphically [[EyeScream gouging out the eye]] of a Tojo patriarch for gloating about Arakawa's death. You'd think the camera would cut away just before the thumb goes in ''but it doesn't''. It's made even more unnerving by how Sawashiro [[TranquilFury calmly]] wipes the blood on his hands off on the shoulders of another patriarch, who is struggling to keep his composure.
6* One of the Chef job's special moves is Essence of Human Grating, where the enemy's face is dragged across a giant wooden radish grater until it's utterly covered in their blood. In other words, it's a much, much more brutal version of the infamous Essence of Grating heat move from ''5''. The best party member to make a Chef is Zhao, a SoftSpokenSadist ''and'' the group's best cook, which makes sense. He even jokes in a Drink Link that he had a traitor turned into ground meat buns.
