| 32 | [[/folder]] |
| 33 | |
| 34 | [[folder:Level 1]] |
| 35 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Bluey}}'' [[note]] Usually a 0, but the roughhousing and slapstick in some episodes gets a tad rough. [[/note]] |
| 36 | * ''WesternAnimation/Cars1'' (2006) [[note]] The race car crash scene in the beginning, as well as some of [=McQueen=]'s hijinks in Radiator Springs. [[spoiler:Chick Hicks deliberately forcing Strip Weathers off the track, resulting in a ''very bad'' crash,]] edges to 2 though.[[/note]] |
| 37 | * ''WesternAnimation/CharlieAndLola'' [[note]] Usually a 0, but in "Charlie is Broken", he breaks his arm.[[/note]] |
| 38 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Cinderella}}'' (1950) [[note]]Some of the slapstick, particularly involving Lucifer the cat, can get a tad rough; the king furiously swipes at the duke with a sword and drops a chandelier on both of them, though it's played for laughs. Cinderella's stepsisters violently tear her dress apart; she isn't injured but it's an intense and upsetting scene.[[/note]] |
| 39 | * ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe1'' (2010) [[note]] There's plenty of slapstick that nobody appears to die from and some juice flows from an iron maiden, looking like blood at first.[[/note]] |
| 40 | * ''WesternAnimation/HowTheGrinchStoleChristmas'' (1966) [[note]] It's a turbo-light level 1 for a dog posing as a reindeer being whipped in a slapstickish manner a few times to pull a sleigh. Not violence per se, but an x-ray shows the titular character's heart-shaped heart a couple of times in a cartoony, non-graphic way. [[/note]] |
| 41 | * ''WesternAnimation/Incredibles2'' (2018) [[note]] Unlike the first film, no death is seen.[[/note]] |
| 42 | * ''WesternAnimation/LittlestPetShop2012'' |
| 43 | * ''WesternAnimation/MarthaSpeaks'' [[note]] Injuries like broken bones sometimes feature, but no blood.[[/note]] |
| 44 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Milo}}'' [[note]] Usually a 0, but occasionally you get scenes with shocking implications such as when Milo (a six-year-old) nearly drinks bleach, mistaking it for juice.[[/note]] |
| 45 | * ''WesternAnimation/NinaNeedsToGo'' [[note]] Things that would be dangerous in real life, such as walking on roofs, feature, but no injuries at all (blood or no blood).[[/note]] |
| 46 | * ''WesternAnimation/PAWPatrol'' [[note]] Mostly because of Marshall's ButtMonkey status, along with a few minor injuries, but there's no blood or any serious injuries.[[/note]] |
| 47 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheRaccoons'' [[note]] There are some injuries and several perilous situations, but for the most part, the violence is harmless slapstick and no blood is seen throughout the series. The episode "The One That Got Away!" leans more towards 2, as some non-sapient fish are killed by toxic waste.[[/note]] |
| 48 | * ''WesternAnimation/ReadyJetGo'' [[note]] Kid-friendly slapstick. Mitchell gets squashed by an automatic door in "Kid-Kart Derby", the kids form a BigBallOfViolence in "Uncle Zucchini Babysits", Bergs hurts his foot in "Astronaut Ellen Ochoa", and Sunspot fakes an injury in "Mindy Pet-sits". However, no real lasting injuries or blood is ever shown.[[/note]] |
| 49 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Rugrats}}'' [[note]] Some slapstick, occasional cuts on fingers, but nothing gory.[[/note]] |
| 50 | * ''WesternAnimation/ShaunTheSheep'' [[note]] Plenty of slapstick, but nobody gets badly injured as a result.[[/note]] |
| 51 | * ''WesternAnimation/SpookleyTheSquarePumpkin'' (2004) [[note]] There's no actual violence, but there is a perilous situation where a sentient scarecrow is trapped under a fallen beam.[[/note]] |
| 52 | * ''WesternAnimation/VeggieTales'' |
| 53 | * ''WesternAnimation/WallaceAndGromit'' [[note]] ''WesternAnimation/AMatterOfLoafAndDeath'' is a level 2, however, due to some on-screen death and the story involving a serial baker killer on the loose.[[/note]] |
| 54 | [[/folder]] |
| 55 | |
| 56 | [[folder:Level 2]] |
| 57 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfJimmyNeutronBoyGenius'' |
| 58 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' |
| 59 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}}'' [[note]] Usually a 1, but sometimes, a character will get an injury like a skinned knee ("Arthur's Knee") or a gash on their face ("Attack of the Turbo Tibbles"), and one episode is about a school catching fire. That said, there is no fatal violence and all of the blood is offscreen.[[/note]] |
| 60 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheBadGuys2022'' [[note]] A man is kicked in the face multiple times during a fight scene. Other comical fight scenes are largely a 1 or borderline 2. [[/note]] |
| 61 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Balto}}'' (1995) [[note]] There's an intense, but bloodless, fight against a bear, which ends with the implication that the bear drowns in a frozen lake. [[/note]] |
| 62 | * ''WesternAnimation/BarbieAndTheMagicOfPegasus'' (2005)[[note]]While no one actually dies, some of the violence is near-fatal and played seriously. Wenlock magically turns several innocent people to stone in an attempt to force Annika to marry him. Wenlock turns an old man into a doormat; he's still aware and possibly able to feel pain based on his reaction to Wenlock walking on him. While they're flying on pegasi, Wenlock causes Annika and another young woman to crash; no one has visible injuries but the woman is knocked unconscious and the pegasi look hurt. Annika tries to use the Wand of Light to "destroy" Wenlock (notably making her one of the few Barbie protagonists who has actually tried to kill someone), but it fails. Wenlock uses magic to bury Annika under snow; she's unconscious and sick for a while. Aidan fights a griffin with a sword; flynning is in effect. Aidan is knocked from a cliff and briefly thought dead.[[/note]] |
| 63 | * ''WesternAnimation/BarbieAndTheThreeMusketeers'' (2009)[[note]]A soft 2. The plot revolves around the attempted assassination of Prince Louis by his own uncle; he's almost crushed by a chandlier and his hot air balloon is sabotaged, nearly causing him to fall to his death. In the climax, Louis' uncle chases him with a sword and attempts to stab him. The heroes fight against numerous assassins; they use martial arts and weapons like swords and slings, although flynning is used a lot, some of the violence is played comedically, and the bad guys gets knocked out or chased off rather than seriously hurt.[[/note]] |
| 64 | * ''WesternAnimation/BarbieFairytopia'' |
| 65 | ** ''Fairytopia'' (2005)[[note]]Due to the death of a villainous firebird; the heroes cause a firebird chasing them to crash into a wall and it explodes, though there's no gore. There are no other deaths, though there are a few near-misses. Fairies and other sapient flying creatures become ill due to airborne poison. Elina is chased and falls from a great height, but is rescued at the last moment. Laverna appears to explode into sparkles, although the sequels confirm she didn't die.[[/note]] |
| 66 | ** ''Mermaidia'' (2006)[[note]]A soft 2. Max repeatedly threatens to drop a vial of poison that would wipe out Mermaidia into the sea. Elina and Nori get grabbed by tentacle-like plants, but are able to get free. The heroes have to traverse a cave of underwater geysers, which Nori says can vaporise merpeople who get too close; Bibble has a particularly close call. Prince Nalu is tied up and suspended upside-down above water; Nori is horrified, saying that as a merman he'll die if he's out of water too long, though he's freed before he's seriously hurt.[[/note]] |
| 67 | ** ''Magic of the Rainbow'' (2007)[[note]]A soft 2. Elina and Sunburst angrily shoot magical light at each other, though it doesn't cause any injuries. The Fairy Guardians are poisoned offscreen and end up in comas. Laverna uses dark magic to try and destroy a magic flower, causing it to wither (destroying the flower will cause decades of winter); Elina throws herself in the way and is weakened and hurt, though with no visible wounds. The heroes blast Laverna with magical light, causing her to explode into sparkles.[[/note]] |
| 68 | * ''WesternAnimation/BarbieInTheTwelveDancingPrincesses'' (2006)[[note]]Lacey trips over and gets a grazed knee - one of the very few instances of blood appearing in a Barbie film. Rowena secretly poisons the king, causing him to fall increasingly ill; he passes out and appears to die onscreen [[spoiler:but is later cured]]. In the climax, the princesses fight off guards by doing things like tripping them or knocking them out with croquet balls; it comes off more like slapstick.[[/note]] |
| 69 | * ''WesternAnimation/BarbieAsRapunzel'' (2002)[[note]]There are no deaths, though there are genuine attempts to seriously hurt or kill sympathetic characters, including children. A little girl almost falls down a pit before being rescued. Gothel uses her magic to destroy Rapunzel's belongings, forcibly cut her hair and threaten her friends, but doesn't attempt to directly harm her until the climax. Gothel threatens a sapient dragon, including hurting him with magic to emphasize the point and later chaining him with the implication she'll kill him. A sword fight breaks out between enemy soldiers; flynning is in full effect and no one gets seriously hurt or killed. Gothel shoots fireballs at Prince Stefan, his young siblings and Rapunzel; she doesn't hit any of them though not for lack of trying.[[/note]] |
| 70 | * ''WesternAnimation/BarbieOfSwanLake'' (2003)[[note]]Rothbart tries to use dark magic to destroy Odette, though she's protected by a magic crystal. Prince Daniel almost shoots Odette (in swan form) with an arrow, but stops at the last moment. Erasmus (turned into a worm) is nearly eaten by ravens. Odette collapses and is briefly thought to be dead after the crystal's power fails. Odette and Daniel both get struck by dark magic and collapse, seemingly dead (though with no visible injuries), before coming back to life. Rothbart explodes into sparkling light and his reaction indicates it's painful.[[/note]] |
| 71 | * ''WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButtHeadDoAmerica'' (1996) |
| 72 | * ''WesternAnimation/BobsBurgers'' |
| 73 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddParents'' |
| 74 | * ''WesternAnimation/FindingNemo'' (2003) [[note]] A scene where a fish bleeds quite a bit from her nose after an accident.[[spoiler: A shark gets a whiff of the blood which sends him into a feeding frenzy.]] A scene in which [[spoiler: it is implied that a barracuda ate a fish and hundreds of her eggs offscreen.]] A couple of fish skeletons are shown. A dead fish is shown in a picture with its eyes open. [[spoiler: An after-credits scene in which a small fish comically eats an angler fish.]][[/note]] |
| 75 | * ''WesternAnimation/FrostyTheSnowman'' (1969) [[note]] It's here for when [[spoiler:Professor Hinkle intentionally melts Frosty]]. A soft 2, given [[spoiler:he comes back to life soon after]]. [[/note]] |
| 76 | * ''WesternAnimation/Frozen2013'' [[note]] Some fairly intense scenes, including a man almost getting impaled by icicles. Olaf the snowman is comically and harmlessly impaled. A snow monster's leg is cut off before falling into a ravine. [[spoiler:Anna freezes in a way that is portrayed like death, though she is saved from this]]. [[/note]] |
| 77 | * ''WesternAnimation/LittlePrincess'' [[note]] Usually a 1, but in "I Want My Plaster", Princess and General cry upon cutting their legs and the pets have to wear [[ConeOfShame Cones of Shame]], and in "I Want to Go to the Fair", Princess sprains her ankle.[[/note]] |
| 78 | * ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' [[note]] A fair amount of slapstick, no blood and very rare DisneyVillainDeath, occasional episodes such as "Read it and Weep" focus on injuries such as a broken limb. The Mean Six's and King Sombra's final defeat [[FamilyUnfriendlyDeath take it up to a borderline 5, due to the former shriveling and melting, and the latter's flesh starting to bloodlessly rip off]].[[/note]] |
| 79 | * ''WesternAnimation/HomeMovies'' |
| 80 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Jellystone}}'' [[note]] Features heavy slapstick, bruises, black eyes, and fight scenes. Blood is never shown though, and if it is, it's fake (such as watermelon juice)[[/note]] |
| 81 | * ''WesternAnimation/JohnnyBravo'' |
| 82 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheLEGOBatmanMovie'' (2017) [[note]] Part of Two-Face's face is melted off without any gore, a cat harmlessly gets fried in lava, several characters die [[spoiler:including two major villains]], and Bruce Wayne's parents are implied to be dead. No blood is seen throughout the movie.[[/note]] |
| 83 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheLEGOMovie'' (2014) [[note]] A major character gets non-graphically decapitated by the main antagonist.[[/note]] |
| 84 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheLEGOMovie2TheSecondPart'' (2019) [[note]] For the occasional non-graphic deaths, such as two Apocalypseburgers falling off a cliff, several talking hearts exploding, and [[spoiler:the main antagonist getting erased from existence via time paradox]].[[/note]] |
| 85 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheLEGOStarWarsHolidaySpecial'' (2020) [[note]] There is some lightweight action and violence, with the occasional apparent death.[[/note]] |
| 86 | * ''Franchise/LiloAndStitch'' [[note]] [[WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitch The original film]] leans a ''little'' closer to 3, however.[[/note]] |
| 87 | * ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' [[note]] ''Looney Tunes'' is known for having a huge amount of slapstick violence, but it's all completely bloodless. Some of the harsher shorts may reach a 3, however.[[/note]] |
| 88 | * ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'' [[note]] Fantastical fisticuffs and peril; often with innocent people being threatened, and lots of collateral damage; but no onscreen death or injury. [[spoiler: Then there is Adrien's dead/comatose (it's kept [[NeverSayDie vague]]) mother preserved in Hawk Moth's lair; a sentimonster eating an entire temple and it's inhabitants (they are saved when it is defeated, abliet over a century later); and the apocalyptic scenario depicted in "Chat Blanc" (we even see Marinnette and Gabriel's petrified corpses).]] A light 2.[[/note]] |
| 89 | * ''WesternAnimation/MonstersInc1'' (2001) [[note]] A monster comically hits his crotch on a steel beam, and another monster is beaten with a shovel in silhouette, with the impication that he is killed offscreen. [[/note]] |
| 90 | * ''ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}}'' |
| 91 | * ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' [[note]] Slapstick and AmusingInjuries are frequent, but not usually seriously violent. Comical body horror, like an enlarged brain and a fire hydrant under someone's skin. [[/note]] |
| 92 | * ''WesternAnimation/PuppyInMyPocketAdventuresInPocketville'' [[note]]There are some occasional fight scenes between Eva's gang and the Royal Guards and the Pet Buster is seen hurting Wallace in two episodes: one where he knocked him down on the pavement when he tried to get to Ava and another where he threw Wallace across Kate's room. No blood is seen except for a very small stream that shows up when Zull and Gort fight in Bella's etiquette school. No one gets badly hurt except for Ava when a tree branch fell and injured her paw in "Operation: Princess" and Wallace, after getting hurt by the Pet Buster for the first time.[[/note]] |
| 93 | * ''WesternAnimation/RudolphTheRedNosedReindeer1964'' [[note]] A monster is hit with a rock before having all his teeth pulled out. The latter is offscreen, but the monster's mouth is shown toothless while his teeth lay on the ground. Would be higher if not for how clean it is. [[/note]] |
| 94 | * ''Franchise/ScoobyDoo'' [[note]] Except for ''Zombie Island'' and ''Mystery Incorporated" which are listed at the borderline between 4-5.[[/note]] |
| 95 | * ''VideoGame/SonicBoom'' [[note]] Lots of robot attacks and explosions happening to the Hedgehog Village, but no one is badly hurt, with the exception of Tails in "The Sidekick".[[/note]] |
| 96 | * ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry'' [[note]] Frequent slapstick that would be deadly in real life, but it usually isn't too brutal.[[/note]] |
| 97 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheWildThornberrys'' |
| 98 | * ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'' [[note]] An attack causes ClothingDamage and red welts but no blood.[[/note]] |
| 99 | * ''WesternAnimation/RiseOfTheTeenageMutantNinjaTurtles'' [[note]] While the show is an action-comedy, violence rarely has any lasting consequences unless for comedic purposes, BloodlessCarnage (one of the Ninja Turtles has a sword yet never uses it to draw any blood, the other three have blunt weapons, and many of their enemies are nonhuman) and while characters may bruise or scratch, injuries rarely stick more than a transition.[[/note]] |
| 100 | [[/folder]] |
| 101 | |
| 102 | [[folder:Level 3]] |
| 103 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfPrinceAchmed'' (1926) [[note]] In this silhouette-animation movie, a few monsters are hack-and-slashed by sword or impaled by arrows from a bow.[[/note]] |
| 104 | * ''WesternAnimation/AroundTheWorldWithWillyFog'' [[note]] Transfer's attempts to stop Fog and his party sometimes go as far as trying to kill (or at least seriously maim) them. In addition, Romy nearly gets burned alive in her debut episode. There is also a scene in which a background character is fatally shot.[[/note]] |
| 105 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{The Adventures of Tintin|2011}}'' (2011) [[note]] A shooting leaves some blood on the ground and the man who's been shot leaves some bloody fingerprints on a newspaper.[[/note]] |
| 106 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball'' |
| 107 | * ''WesternAnimation/Ben10'' [[note]] Mass genocide, horrific experiments and grosteque mutations routinely occur and universal destruction is attempted by most major villains, but rarely any blood and not in graphic detail. Although the death scene of the Great One from the episode "The Big Tick" scores at least a 6, possibly a 7, due to the broken bones and slimy alien blood geysers as Ben turns into a ball alien and blasts his way through the tick's organs and body, before the tick alien explodes into slimy alien blood and bones.[[/note]] |
| 108 | * ''WesternAnimation/CampLazlo'' |
| 109 | * ''WesternAnimation/Cars3'' (2017) [[note]] For the ''very rough'' crash Lightning [=McQueen=] suffers at the beginning, all cast in dramatic light. The movie is otherwise a 1 with the Demolition Derby scene being a 2.[[/note]] |
| 110 | * ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'' [[note]] Would be Level 2, but the violence occasionally goes a little further than "harsh slapstick".[[/note]] |
| 111 | * ''WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor'' |
| 112 | * ''WesternAnimation/DextersLaboratory'' |
| 113 | * ''WesternAnimation/DogtanianAndTheThreeMuskehounds'' [[note]] Sword-fighting generally occurs at least OncePerEpisode. Also, three shootings (one fatal) and one accidental fatal stabbing. No blood or gore.[[/note]] |
| 114 | * ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'' |
| 115 | * ''WesternAnimation/IceAge'' (2002) [[note]]Scrat is frequently subjected to harsh slapstick (getting squeezed between two glaciers, falling off a cliff, being trampled underfoot etc), though he's not visibly or seriously injured and it's all played for laughs. Rhinos threaten Sid with brutal violence, such as breaking his neck, but don't actually hurt him. Dodo birds fall off cliffs and into boiling mud pools to their deaths; non-graphic and portrayed comedically. The villain (a sabretooth tiger) intends to eat a human infant and also plots to kill Manny. A woman drowns offscreen. There's a flashback depicting the offscreen killing of a sapient mammoth family, including a child. Manny flings a villain hard against a wall in self-defense; the villain is then fatally impaled by icicles offscreen. [[spoiler:Diego]] is seriously injured and appears to die from wounds inflicted by the villain, but has no visible injuries [[spoiler:and later recovers]].[[/note]] |
| 116 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles'' (2004) [[note]] A super-powered man is non-fatally tortured with an electric shock, villains attempt to kill children, with attention drawn to this, and it's implied that characters are shredded by propellers, though there's nothing graphic. A hard 3. Other level 2 violence.[[/note]] |
| 117 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheLEGONinjagoMovie'' (2017) [[note]] Normally a level 2, but there are visible cat scratches on a human's hand.[[/note]] |
| 118 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994''[[note]]A hard 3. Two cubs are chased by hyenas who intend to eat them; at one point Simba claws a hyena's face, drawing blood. An intense scene where young Simba is nearly trampled in a stampede, culminating in Scar sadistically flinging Mufasa off a cliff into the stampede; we don't see his death, but we see his son's horrified reaction and later see his body. It's followed by another intense scene where Simba is chased by hyenas who intend to kill him. Scar strikes Sarabi hard enough to knock her to the ground for criticising him, which is a bit disturbing. The climax features an intense but bloodless battle between lions and hyenas, as well as [[BattleAmongstTheFlames a brutal, vicious fight between Scar and Simba amidst a raging inferno]], including Scar flinging burning embers into Simba's eyes. This is then followed by [[spoiler:Scar]] being knocked from a cliff and eaten alive by the hyenas, [[ShadowDiscretionShot although we only see the shadows of the hyenas pouncing on him]].[[/note]] |
| 119 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKingIISimbasPride'' (1998) [[note]]A hard 3. Young Kiara and Kovu are chased and nearly eaten by crocodiles. There's an intense scene where Kiara tries to outrun a bush fire and collapses from smoke inhalation, before being rescued. Simba has a disturbing nightmare where Kovu throws him from a cliff; he wakes before he hits the ground. Simba is chased and attacked by lions, and is consequently injured; he has no visible wounds but is limping and collapses. Kovu is flung against a rock and knocked unconscious. [[spoiler:Nuka]] is fatally crushed by falling logs; it's not graphic but still a bit disturbing as we see him die onscreen, clearly in pain. Zira scratches Kovu across the eye, leaving a bloody scar. Two lions prides briefly fight; it's stopped before anyone is seriously hurt. [[spoiler:Kiara and Zira]] nearly fall from a cliff into a ravine; [[spoiler:Zira]] ends up falling to her death.[[/note]] |
| 120 | * ''WesternAnimation/MyLifeAsATeenageRobot'' |
| 121 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas'' (1993) [[note]] A scorpion is stomped with a small green blood pool, a skeletal deer's head is shot off, and [[spoiler:a character is "skinned"]], though that last one isn't as gross as it sounds. Other assorted ghoulish imagery. [[/note]] |
| 122 | * ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls2016'' |
| 123 | * ''WesternAnimation/PussInBootsTheLastWish'' (2022) [[note]] Non-graphic death by burning, mild, bloodless stabbing of thumbs, man cartoonishly eaten to a skeleton. It should probably also be noted that there are two scenes with non-fatal bloodshed. [[/note]] |
| 124 | * ''WesternAnimation/RocketPower'' |
| 125 | * ''WesternAnimation/SheRaAndThePrincessesOfPower'' |
| 126 | * ''WesternAnimation/Shrek1'' (2001) [[note]] Jar full of detatched eyeballs. Bird expanding and bursting into feathers. Burned rats eaten as food. [[spoiler:Man eaten by a dragon]]. The comedic tone lessens the impact, especially as none of these scenes are graphic.[[/note]] |
| 127 | * ''WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs'' (1937)[[note]]A light 3 due to some implied or non-visual gruesomeness. The queen orders a huntsman to murder her innocent stepdaughter and bring her back the heart as proof; the huntsman nearly stabs Snow White, but can't bring himself to do it. The huntsman gives the queen a pig's heart in place of Snow White's, though it's concealed in a box. The queen gleefully mentions that Snow White will be buried alive. We see a skeleton in the dungeon reaching for a jug, with the disturbing implication the prisoner was left to die of thirst. Snow White appears to die from eating a poisoned apple; we only hear the poison taking effect and see her arm laying on the ground. The queen tries to loosen a boulder onto the dwarfs, only for her to fall from the cliff edge and be crushed by the boulder instead, with the implication her corpse is eaten by vultures; the graphic stuff happens offscreen.[[/note]] |
| 128 | * ''WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil'' |
| 129 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheSuperMarioBrosMovie'' (2023) [[note]] It's a very, very soft level 3 for a Koopa Troopa (anthropomorphized turtle henchmen) being burned by villain Bowser's fire breath until turned into a Dry Bones (skeleton variant of the Koopa Troopa), with minimal apparent suffering (PlayedForLaughs). One minor villain also kills himself in a suicide attack on the heroes, but there is no gore when he does so. There's also some very minor cat-scratch marks and bruises from fighting. [[/note]] |
| 130 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Tangled}}'' (2010) [[note]]Besides lots of slapstick and some comedic fight scenes (such as Flynn dueling a sword-wielding horse with a frying pan), there's little serious violence until after the midway point. Flynn and Rapunzel nearly drown after being trapped in a cave, during which Flynn cuts his hand and gets a slightly bloody graze. Flynn is sentenced to be hanged, but is rescued before he reaches the gallows. Gothel stabs Flynn in the back with a dagger; it's bloodless and non-graphic, but Flynn is mortally wounded with realistically-pained reactions [[spoiler:until Rapunzel heals him]]. [[spoiler:Gothel]] falls to her death from a tower; we see her hit the ground but as she's covered by a cloak and her body turns to dust, it's not that gruesome.[[/note]] |
| 131 | * ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987'' |
| 132 | * ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'' |
| 133 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Thundercats}}'' |
| 134 | * ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated'' [[note]] Several concepts, such as a character being crushed into a cube, Lockdown mutilating other characters, Megatron killing Starscream multiple times and the Dinobots being tortured by Meltdown, would get this show a much higher level if they were inflicted on humans.[[/note]] |
| 135 | [[/folder]] |
| 136 | |
| 137 | [[folder:Level 4]] |
| 138 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheAngryBeavers'' |
| 139 | * ''WesternAnimation/AtlantisTheLostEmpire'' (2001) [[note]] Several offscreen deaths due to explosions, but no blood is shown. A character is transformed into crystal and shattered, again without blood [[/note]] |
| 140 | * ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' [[note]] Among various scenes of high-intensity shonen-style action, Zuko's rather detailed face burn deserves particular mention. [[spoiler: Ozai being strongly implied to be a rapist would bring it up to a 5, but it's not spelled out explicitly enough in the series itself.]][[/note]] |
| 141 | * ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' [[note]] Common use of FamilyUnfriendlyViolence; some blood in several episodes. Two examples include Matt Hagen having a substance painfully poured down his throat (which could be a 5 if it wasn't shown in shadow) and the Joker throwing his girlfriend Harley Quinn out of a window. [[/note]] |
| 142 | * ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'' (1991) [[note]]A soft 4, mostly for the violence in the climax. The Beast angrily smashes and knocks over furniture next to Belle; he doesn't directly harm her but she's scared and flees. Belle is chased and surrounded by wolves; she hits one with a stick and is knocked over. The Beast fights off the wolves and is clawed and bitten; he's not visibly wounded but collapses and we later see red claw marks on his arm. Belle and Maurice are roughly dragged and thrown about by the townsfolk, who intend to murder the Beast. There's a battle between a human mob and anthropomorphic furniture; it's largely comedic and utilizes a lot of slapstick, even though realistically the humans would be seriously injured. Gaston shoots the Beast in the shoulder with an arrow and shoves him through a window; no blood but disturbing, given it's unprovoked and the Beast has realistically-pained reactions. Gaston stabs the Beast in the back with a dagger; we see the hilt in his back with a small amount of blood and he roars in pain. Gaston falls to his offscreen death.[[/note]] |
| 143 | * ''WesternAnimation/Cars2'' (2011) [[note]] For the infamous [[spoiler:scene of a spy car being tortured and [[FamilyUnfriendlyDeath then exploded offscreen]]]]. The frequent explosions, missile firing exchanges, and murder attempts also make up for this level. It should be mentioned this film is rated ''G''.[[/note]] |
| 144 | * ''WesternAnimation/CourageTheCowardlyDog'' |
| 145 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Coraline}}'' (2009) [[note]] For the [[spoiler: 3 previous children that were victims of The Beldam, who are depicted as ghosts that have had their eyes torn out and buttons sewn into them in place, though with no blood or gore.]] Rather disturbing body horror of the [[spoiler: Beldam herself and the entities created by her.]] [[/note]] |
| 146 | * ''WesternAnimation/DefendersOfTheEarth'' |
| 147 | * ''Dimensions of Dialogue'' by ''Creator/JanSvankmajer'' (1983) [[note]] The second short features grey claymation people brutally ripping each other to shreds with no blood or gore. [[/note]] |
| 148 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Fantasia}}'' (1940) [[note]]The level of violence varies across each sequence; some contain no violence at all, some contain only slapstick, others have more serious violence. It mostly ranks here for "The Rite of Spring" sequence, which features an intense fight between a T-rex and a Stegosaurus; the Stegosaurus strikes the T-rex with its spiked tail and the T-rex bites the Stegosaurus' neck, culminating in the Stegosaurus' death. It would rank higher if it was bloodier. Later in the sequence a dinosaur collapses and dies from exhaustion. In the "Night on Bald Mountain" sequence, Chernabog sadistically drops demons into a fire, though we don't graphically see their demise. The ghosts and demons also tend to appear as skeletal and/or grotesque humanoids.[[/note]] |
| 149 | * ''WesternAnimation/FostersHomeForImaginaryFriends'' |
| 150 | * ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'' [[note]] Usually a 3, but scenes like the infamous BodyHorror scene in the finale where [[spoiler:a character's mouth and eyes are turned inside out, which borders on a 5]], Wendy quite brutally stabbing a bat before eating it, and occasionally bloody violence bump it up.[[/note]] |
| 151 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheGrimAdventuresOfBillyAndMandy'' [[note]] Could potentially skew higher if not for the BloodlessCarnage and extremely wacky tone.[[/note]] |
| 152 | * ''WesternAnimation/HermanAndKatnip'' [[note]] A ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry'' [[FollowTheLeader clone]] known for taking the violence and sadism and stretching them to insane lengths; what keeps it down here is the comedic tone and BloodlessCarnage[[/note]] |
| 153 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDameDisney'' (1996) [[note]]A hard 4; the violence isn't graphic but can be harsh, often committed against innocent and helpless people, and treated seriously. An innocent woman is kicked to the ground, breaking her neck in the fall. Frollo nearly throws a baby down a well. A prisoner is whipped offscreen; we hear him shout in pain. Quasimodo is tied up, pelted with food and mocked as he pleads for help; he's not seriously hurt but it's disturbing. Frollo has a brief vision of a woman being burnt at the stake; it's stylized and non-graphic. Frollo sets fire to a house with an innocent family - including kids - trapped inside; they're saved just in time. Phoebus is struck in the arm with an arrow and nearly drowns; the wound is slightly bloody. Quasimodo and Phoebus are almost hanged onscreen. Frollo lusts after Esmeralda and offers to spare her if she "choose[s him]", which has nasty implications. Esmeralda is nearly burnt at the stake; she passes out from the smoke but is rescued, though it's an intense scene and she briefly appears to be dead. Frollo nearly stabs Quasimodo with a dagger, then chases and slashes at him and Esmeralda with a sword. We see [[spoiler:Frollo]] fall from a great height into a fire, though not his actual death.[[/note]] |
| 154 | * ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague'' |
| 155 | * ''WesternAnimation/LegendOfTheGuardiansTheOwlsOfGahoole'' (2010) [[note]] Hard 4. Unlike most animated films on talking animals [[FamilyUnfriendlyViolence Family-Unfriendly Violence]] is in full effect in this film. Owls are shown clawing and slashing each other apart, characters are dying, bats tearing apart owls, some of the said bats appearing to die via Neck Snap, Impalements, and drowning. [[WarIsHell War Is Hell]] and the film takes great pains to show that. [[spoiler: Metal Beak's death via impalement by flaming branch]] makes it a borderline 5. [[Literature/GuardiansOfGaHoole The book series it is based]] on is at least an 8.[[/note]] |
| 156 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1989'' (1989) [[note]]For [[spoiler: Ursula's]] onscreen impalement. Other violence ranks more at a 2 or 3, including [[spoiler:Flotsam and Jetsom]] being blasted to pieces by a magical beam (no blood or gore visible), Eric slashing Ursula's arm with a harpoon (drawing blood) and the intense ship sinking scene where Eric nearly drowns.[[/note]] |
| 157 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'' [[note]] An otherwise Level 2 show, the large amounts of realistic-looking fake blood in the episode "Tricked!" puts it at this level. In “Schooled”, Lincoln takes a Piranha tooth out of his finger as a squirt of blood comes out.[[/note]] |
| 158 | * ''WesternAnimation/OliverAndCompany'' (1988) [[note]] A fairly hard 4, and generally considered to be one of the darker entries in the Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon. It mainly reaches this level for the electrocution deaths of Sykes' Dobermans on the subway (one of which is completely onscreen) and the infamous FamilyUnfriendlyDeath of [[spoiler:Sykes getting hit by a subway train]]. Unusually for a G-rated Disney canon film, there is some gun threat using realistic firearms towards defenseless characters as well, although none are actually shot, and Sykes ties Jenny (a child) to a chair in a hostage situation. [[/note]] |
| 159 | * ''Film/OsmosisJones'' (2001) |
| 160 | * ''WesternAnimation/OzzyAndDrix'' |
| 161 | * ''Animation/PleasantGoatAndBigBigWolf'' [[note]] (While not made in the West, it is not anime, so it best belongs here, for now.) For the very extreme slapstick.[[/note]] |
| 162 | * ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls1998'' |
| 163 | * ''WesternAnimation/RegularShow'' [[note]] The halloween episodes can be a 6 and could skew higher without the comedic presentation.[[/note]] |
| 164 | * ''WesternAnimation/RockosModernLife'' [[note]] Most of the violence was cartoonish {{slapstick}}, but there were also a few gory moments now and then, such as a bull's arms breaking off while lifting weights (with visible blood and meat) or Rocko getting mauled by [[BullyBulldog Earl]] and getting a nosebleed and part of his tail missing.[[/note]] |
| 165 | * ''WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack'' [[note]] Specifically the original run. Frequent cuts and symbolic usage of oil and alien blood- it would be worse if it was actual blood.[[/note]] |
| 166 | * ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooMysteryIncorporated'' [[note]] Several monsters have rather grisly appearances, with Dead Justice's face having bone gristle, as well as numerous offscreen deaths from gunfire.[[spoiler: The finale is a 5, with civilians, including children being devoured by an EldritchAbomination onscreen in a non-gory fashion.]][[/note]] |
| 167 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfNIMH'' (1982) [[note]] Character slashed by a sword, with blood seen and the end of the sword briefly seen bloodied. Other level 3 violence such as a spider being crushed with green blood leaking, a non-fatal wound that drips blood on the ground, and a character being stabbed with blood seen afterwards.[[/note]] |
| 168 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsonsMovie'' (2007) [[note]] There's plenty of cartoon, humorous slapstick and some non-graphic death.[[/note]] |
| 169 | * ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManAcrossTheSpiderVerse'' (2023) [[note]] In a similar vein to its prequel, while most of the fast-paced action sits at 3, there are a couple of brutal moments that push things into the 4 range, notably during [[spoiler:Earth-65 Peter’s death]], Miles getting choke slammed by [[spoiler:Miguel]] and shown later with numerous cuts and bruises, and on the gore front, the appearance of Spot, with appendages occasionally seen moving through the holes in his body (not graphic enough for a 5 as they’re never severed, but still unsettling enough to look at for anything below a 4).[[/note]] |
| 170 | * ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'' (2018) [[note]] One character's death by being viciously smashed (no blood or gore seen though) is probably just brutal enough for this level.[[/note]] |
| 171 | * ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'' [[note]] Possessed mascot suit stabbed in the eye, with it "bleeding" ketchup. [[spoiler: Fairly violent, but incredibly fast sequence of a major teenage character having their neck broken and dying before being revived, Steven is punched so hard his nose bleeds during the movie]], general level 3 action.[[/note]] |
| 172 | * ''WesternAnimation/SupermanTheAnimatedSeries'' [[note]] Similar content to Batman: The Animated Series, despite the brighter tone.[[/note]] |
| 173 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Tarzan}}'' (1999) [[note]] For [[spoiler: Clayton's violent death]], where he gets graphically hanged by a vine around his neck, complete with a [[SickeningCrunch loud crunching noise]] and the gruesome shadow of his dangling corpse being shown for a few seconds [[LightningReveal via lightning]].[[/note]] |
| 174 | * ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' [[note]] While most violence is only a level 3, Slade's pedophilic overtones and his [[spoiler: brutal beatings of Terra and (although hallucinated) of Robin, along with his skeletal NightmareFace after being brought back from the dead]] bring it up here.[[/note]] |
| 175 | * ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012'' |
| 176 | * ''WesternAnimation/WreckItRalph'' (2012) [[note]] A man comedically tears out a zombie's heart. Would be higher if not for it being purple and the lack of any weight or serious reaction. [[/note]] |
| 177 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}}'' (2016) [[note]] Some fake blood in the opening scene, but in the clear context of it being a performance at a talent show. Young Judy is cut on the face by Gideon with a small amount of blood. While otherwise bloodless, the sadistic actions of some characters, particularly Mr. Big's threats of “icing,” the bullying and torture by the scouts during Nick’s initiation, and [[spoiler:Bellwether’s plan to make predators purposefully vicious]] reach this level as well, and are further amplified by the real-world allegory of racial discrimination. Other level 3 violence including high speed chases and occasional slapstick. [[/note]] |
| 178 | [[/folder]] |
| 179 | |
| 180 | [[folder:Level 5]] |
| 181 | * ''WesternAnimation/AaahhRealMonsters'' |
| 182 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}}'' [[note]] Due to the appearance of the Seamstress in the non-canon episode "The Shut-In!", where she is depicted to have grotesquely stitched together numerous frog skins into a suit, with discarded ones being discovered in a barrel. Otherwise a level 4 for BlackComedy surrounding the bizarre DeathWorld the series takes place in and occasional bloodless scraps and fights, with [[spoiler: Sasha attempting suicide in the Season 1 finale, Marcy being bloodlessly stabbed in the stomach in the Season 2 finale, Grime losing an arm to Darcy, and Anne dying and being cloned in the series finale.]] [[/note]] |
| 183 | * ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' [[note]] [[KnightOfCerebus The Lich has a horrific corpse-like appearance]], [[spoiler: his face is while possessing Billy is blasted off and shows bloodless torn skin and exposed bone]] and he undergoes [[spoiler: a layer by layer full-body regrowth into Sweet P with detailed organs and muscle]]. Also has occasional BodyHorror gags like a bird's skin being turned inside-out and Marceline's skin being graphically burnt when exposed to sun. Would go higher without the fantastical presentation and simple art style.[[/note]] |
| 184 | * ''WesternAnimation/AnimalFarm1954'' [[note]] A message is written in blood, with it dripping. [[spoiler:A horse]] is shot in the leg onscreen, with mild airborne blood. A soft 5, but it's surprising for an animated film from the time. [[/note]] |
| 185 | * ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyondReturnOfTheJoker'' (2000) [[note]] An Underling and [[spoiler: The Joker]] are killed by a gunshot wound, an attempted strangling, and small amounts of blood. [[spoiler: Absolutely horrifying and semi-realistic torture of a teenage Tim Drake by the Joker, involving electrocution and drugging, part of which is shown onscreen. This could possibly go higher but it's shown fairly briefly.]] The edited cut goes back down to the original series Level 4, due to [[spoiler: Joker's death being less graphic]] among other cuts, [[spoiler: Though the torture is still there, though toned down.]][[/note]] |
| 186 | * ''WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButthead'' |
| 187 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheBlackCauldron'' (1985)[[note]]A hard 5; it's noted to be generally darker and more violent than the average Disney movie. The Horned King has a mildly rotted-looking appearance, with a skull-like face covered in green skin. Taran is roughly knocked down by a gwythaint, getting blood on his mouth. Henwen - a cute sapient pig - is nearly beheaded in a disturbing scene; the chopping block has bloodstains, though it can be hard to see due to the lighting. The Horned King occasionally chokes Creeper for displeasing him; the scenes have a darkly comedic tone, though it's still a bit disturbing given the sadism and Creeper's realistic reactions. Blood trickles from the Cauldron during a ritual. Men are attacked and killed by living skeletons to create an undead army; we only see the skeletons pouncing on them before it cuts to the heroes' horrified reactions and we briefly see some slightly bloody skeletal arms. The Horned King is magically skinned alive, with his bones crumbling; no blood or gore, but definitely one of the more disturbing scenes.[[/note]] |
| 188 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{CatDog}}'' [[note]] Especially for the infamous scene in "Teeth for Two" where Cat exits Dog's mouth inside out.[[/note]] |
| 189 | * ''WesternAnimation/CowAndChicken'' [[note]] Some gruesome, yet comical cartoon violence, most notably people being pulled inside out with no blood. [[/note]] |
| 190 | * '' WesternAnimation/FantasticMrFox'' (2009) [[note]] A light 5 for when a character's severed tail is chewed up with no blood but with small chunks of flesh shown. The severing itself is a light 4 as we see a wound with pink flesh but no blood or pain shown. [[/note]] |
| 191 | * ''WesternAnimation/MyGymPartnersAMonkey'' |
| 192 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheHouse2022'' [[note]] Due to the scene in the second story with a bug getting crushed, with yellow gore, but no discernible organs seen. Would be at least 7 if it was red. The first story is a 3 or 4 due to the [[spoiler:implied burning alive of helpless victims]] and the third story is a 0, unless you count the fish being caught violent.[[/note]] |
| 193 | * ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'' [[note]] The episode "Dark Harvest" features Organ harvesting of children, albeit in a comedic fashion. A bloodied Gir is infamously faintly featured in several shots. The Halloween episode was graphic enough to earning a level 6 but was edited for broadcasting.[[/note]] |
| 194 | * ''WesternAnimation/JurassicWorldCampCretaceous'' [[note]]Generally a hard 4 or soft 5 in the first 3 seasons. Several people are fatally mauled/eaten by dinosaurs, but it always occurs offscreen with zero gore; it's also usually unsympathetic villains who receive this fate. The teen heroes sometimes get minor nicks and bruises, with more serious injuries being rarer (including Sammy being near-fatally poisoned and Yaz suffering a sprained ankle for an extended period). There's a brief glimpse of a severed Sinoceratops head, but it's mostly covered by a cloth and not graphic. Toro (a Carnotaurus) has extensive burn scars, though it's not very gory. A dinosaur is fatally shot; it cuts away from the actual shooting and the body has no wounds or blood. Dinosaur-on-dinosaur violence is slightly more brutal, but not much more graphic. Seasons 4 and 5 kick the violence up a notch, pushing it to a hard 5; a woman gets seriously injured by raptors (with bloody claw marks visible), dinosaurs receive bloody wounds from fighting and there's a brutal fight between two dinosaurs that ends with one having its neck snapped onscreen; the fact the dinosaurs are being forced to fight by people for profit/entertainment makes it worse.[[/note]] |
| 195 | * ''WesternAnimation/KaenaTheProphecy'' (2004) |
| 196 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'' [[note]] While seasons 1-2 and 4 are considerably harsher than their predecessor, it still scores a hard 4 even with [[spoiler: Amon's very [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything unsettling]] capturing and debending of Korra in season 1]], Season 3 gets up here with scenes involving mercury poisoning, assassination via suffocation, and even a heavily implied decapitation by explosion.[[/note]] |
| 197 | * ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunesCartoons'' [[note]] Much BloodierAndGorier than the original shorts despite the initial lack of guns. While it's usually around the range of a 2-3, there are some pretty gruesome scenes, (This makes sense when you consider that Looney Tunes was never intended for children in the first place.) such as Bugs putting incredibly detailed and bloody mummified organs unto a plate and eating them, Elmer Fudd having his entire face smeared in fake blood when Bugs attempts to convince him that he's shot him, Bugs deflating into an incredibly horrifying appearance, and Sylvester's ribcage being cracked apart onscreen, complete with a SickeningCrunch.[[/note]] |
| 198 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheRenAndStimpyShow'' |
| 199 | * ''WesternAnimation/RoughnecksStarshipTroopersChronicles'' |
| 200 | * ''Recap/StarWarsTheCloneWarsMovie'' (2008) [[note]] Some severed alien heads are presented to a character (neck stumps not shown, so there's no gory detail).[[/note]] |
| 201 | * ''WesternAnimation/SupermanDoomsday'' (2007) [[note]] Punches to the stomach cause Superman to spit up blood. Bloody, sheet-covered body seen. Lots of bloodless, but still fairly brutal fistfights throughout. A child is killed in a non-graphic fashion.[[/note]] |
| 202 | * ''WesternAnimation/TitanAE'' (2000) |
| 203 | [[/folder]] |
| 204 | |
| 205 | [[folder:Level 6]] |
| 206 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Anastasia}}'' (1997) [[note]] It's rated this high for [[spoiler:the BigBad Rasputin]]'s [[CruelAndUnusualDeath horrific]], [[FamilyUnfriendlyDeath family-unfriendly demise]] near the end, wherein his SoulJar is crushed underfoot by [[TheHero Anya]] causing a huge green tower of fire to [[KillItWithFire consume]] [[spoiler:Rasputin]], [[NauseaFuel completely melting his flesh into a gross pile of liquefied goo]] while [[EyeScream his eyeballs fall out and ooze away too]], [[StrippedToTheBone revealing his skeleton]] which then turns to dust that gets blown away by the wind. Otherwise level 3. Nevertheless, this is a shockingly rare example of a G-rated animated film reaching this level. [[/note]] |
| 207 | * ''WesternAnimation/BojackHorseman'' [[note]] Season 1 specifically, for scenes such as a self-inflicted stab with blood spurting (played for laughs). All the other seasons are level 5 at most, despite the upsetting content seen.[[/note]] |
| 208 | * ''WesternAnimation/CaptainPlanetAndThePlaneteers'' [[note]] Usually a 3, but some episodes can get pretty nasty with the violence, such as one scene in the episode "Utopia" where an innocent family is gunned down, with blood getting on the floor.[[/note]] |
| 209 | * ''Animation/{{Clinic}}'' (1993) [[note]] Not really western, but close enough to fit here. Briefly features a man with his lower body cut off dragging himself on a floor, a dermatologist whose skin is implied to be a patchwork of other people's, and a man biting his finger to draw blood.[[/note]] |
| 210 | * ''WesternAnimation/FireAndIce'' (1983) |
| 211 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Fuelled}}'' [[note]] A soft 6, for a character becoming bloodied after an explosion, with some seeming to leak from her eye. [[/note]] |
| 212 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}}'' (1997) [[note]] For the gruesome fight scene where a giant multi-headed dragon-like creature (Hydra) is decapitated by Hercules several times (neck stumps visible, once for several seconds) amid huge green blood sprays (although the heads grow back) and a scene where a disembodied eyeball is handled in a slapsticky way. Otherwise somewhere between Level 2 and 3, and nonetheless very rare for a G-rated film ranking here. [[/note]] |
| 213 | * ''WesternAnimation/InfinityTrain'' [[note]] Despite ostensibly being aimed at a childhood audience, it has several brutal and painful deaths, from [[spoiler: Mace having the bottom part of his chromium body ripped off and leaking silver chromium blood before being ground on a wheel with silver blood coming out of his mouth and eyes, Sieve exploding into globs of liquid chromium, Simon being graphically melted by a Ghom, with his eyeballs and skin dissolving into dust, and Tuba having her hands stomped on before being grinded to death by a wheel offscreen. Also features a disturbing monster made out of severed passenger hands (no stumps are seen), and Grace pulling out a piece of tape with her brain fluid on it.]][[/note]] |
| 214 | * ''WesternAnimation/MrPuzzlesWantsYouToBeLessAlive'' (2021) [[note]] For the spraying/splattering blood seen when the coworker is killed offscreen. Would be a 7 if not for the silliness.[[/note]] |
| 215 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'' [[note]] Violence typically stays around a 3, with some instances of darker fantasy violence--such as rare depictions of blood--Eda [[EyeScream accidentally taking out her father's eye while she's mutated]]. Emperor Belos' [[BodyHorror deteriorating illness]] makes this a borderline 7, particularly the scenes [[spoiler: of him possessing and badly scarring his clone-son of his brother and an entire hand of another such clone-son he possessed graphically rotting to the bone]], but his immense AssholeVictim status keeps it here. [[/note]] |
| 216 | * ''[[SamuraiJack/TropesSeason5 Samurai Jack (2017)]]'' |
| 217 | * ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooOnZombieIsland'' (1998) [[note]]Aside from mild slapstick typically found in ''Scooby-Doo'' cartoons, it ''earns'' its DarkerAndEdgier reputation, especially as the heroes are in genuine mortal peril. It's a 6 for a bloodless decapitation - a zombie's head is pulled off onscreen and gets tossed around before the zombie replaces it, with gross sound effects - and a zombie being non-graphically bisected with a tree branch. It's otherwise a hard 4 or soft 5. The zombies, while not hugely gruesome, are depicted as realistic-looking, partially-skeletal corpses. There's a non-graphic yet disturbing scene where a group of frightened and helpless innocents are forced into alligator-infested water by pirates and killed offscreen. [[spoiler:Cat creatures]] attack and kill people offscreen; we only see the victims' terrified reactions. The heroes begin melting slightly after their voodoo dolls get placed too close to fire, though their skin looks cartoonish and waxlike. Smoke rises off the [[spoiler:cat creatures]] before they're magically StrippedToTheBone, with pained reactions from them, while the zombies' bodies crumble to bones and dust; no blood or gore, but still a bit disturbing[[/note]] |
| 218 | * ''WesternAnimation/StarshipTroopersTraitorOfMars'' (2017) |
| 219 | * ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2003'' [[note]] It's brought to this level because of Baxter Stockman's body degeneration in the episode "Insane in the Membrane", which features [[BodyHorror absolutely horrific body horror]] as his body deteriorates and as he tries to recover to no avail, he undergoes a gruesome transmogrification and turns into a hideous FrankensteinsMonster-like HumanoidAbomination. Otherwise a 4 for lots of surprisingly brutal superhero violence with [[BloodlessCarnage no blood whatsoever]]. [[/note]] |
| 220 | [[/folder]] |
| 221 | |
| 222 | [[folder:Level 7]] |
| 223 | * ''WesternAnimation/AeonFlux'' |
| 224 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheAnimalsOfFarthingWood'' [[note]] Although meant for a general audience, there's a lot of disturbing deaths like the infamous scene of the butcher bird killing the Field Mouses' babies by impaling them on a thorn bush.[[/note]] |
| 225 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Arcane}}'' [[note]] A light 7 for the decapitation on an unarmed prisoner in episode 8; we see the head separate (stump briefly visible) and it partially visible in a pool of blood. Otherwise a 6 for blood splattering from offscreen attacks, bloodied bodies in aftermaths of conflict, leaky wounds that trail and stain, a throat cutting with little blood, and a young boy being zapped and then falling; breaking his neck.[[/note]] |
| 226 | * ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheDarkKnightReturns'' (Part 1) (2012) [[note]] For when Batman breaks a villain's arm and leg before beating him bloody.[[/note]] |
| 227 | * ''WesternAnimation/BatmanGothamKnight'' (2008) [[note]] A man is decapitated offscreen; a lot of blood splatter is seen and his head is seen falling to the ground; it's also revealed seconds later that this was imagined. A couple of other large blood splatters resulting from violence. [[/note]] |
| 228 | * ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheKillingJoke'' (2016) [[note]] There are a few blood-spurting headshots and some disturbing rape-related images.[[/note]] |
| 229 | * ''WesternAnimation/BatmanUnderTheRedHood'' (2010) [[note]] Jason Todd's brutal torture at the hands of the Joker, as well as several headshots with small amounts of blood. Several GoryDiscretionShots around a person being set on fire, decapitated heads and a man's eyeballs being crushed could go into an 8 or 9, but since they're offscreen, the movie barely manages to keep a PG-13 rating.[[/note]] |
| 230 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Disenchantment}}'' |
| 231 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' [[note]] Black comedy such as the "suicide booths" and an alien saying, "When my species grows up, we eat our moms". Some death but not of main characters except in hypothetical scenarios displayed by Farnsworth's "what-if" machine, occasional bloody gore and decapitation, with explicit violence being more common in the revival episodes. Also, offscreen but audible [[BlackComedyRape comedic depiction of rape]] during S3E5 "Amazon Women in the Mood" [[/note]] |
| 232 | * ''Food'' by ''Creator/JanSvankmajer'' (1992) [[note]] Not fully animated, due to using Pixillation, but not live-action either. First two films are a harder 4 due to minor EyeScream and offscreen cannibalism, final film features people about to eat mutilated body parts, including a penis, but cut away before they do so. [[/note]] |
| 233 | * ''WesternAnimation/HighGuardianSpice''[[note]]A light 7 at highest. There are numerous fight scenes (mostly in the latter half of the series) where monsters and more rarely people get stabbed or slashed with swords and shot with arrows, with moderate blood spray/splatter. A teenager knocks over and repeatedly punches another teen in the face after being provoked, resulting in a bloody nose. A sea creature is struck by a magical beam, ripping a deep gash into its belly and causing copious bleeding; the creature has to be euthanized offscreen.[[/note]] |
| 234 | * ''WesternAnimation/IsleOfDogs'' (2018) [[note]] For the fairly explicit but non-sensationalized human surgery scene near the end. Violence hovers around level 3-5 otherwise.[[/note]] |
| 235 | * ''WesternAnimation/ItsSuchABeautifulDay'' (2012) [[note]] A very gross and bloody scene of a boxer getting their head split half-open, most of the movie is non-violently surreal otherwise. Very simple and unrealistic animation style.[[/note]] |
| 236 | * ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueDark'' (2017) [[note]] A light 7 for brief airborne blood splashes during the swordfights.[[/note]] |
| 237 | * ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueGodsAndMonsters'' (2015) [[note]] Blood splatters from impalement and shooting. Body torn apart in silhouette. The infamous short ''Twisted'' is a 9, as it features mutilated body parts being kept in a fridge to be eaten, the upper half of a dead torso formed into a jack-in-the-box, slightly rotten corpses that have been decapitated and then stitched back together, one of them being a child, which bumps it up from an 8, and spurting blood as this version of Harley Quinn responsible for the previous crimes is killed by Kirk Langstrom.[[/note]] |
| 238 | * ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueTheNewFrontier'' (2008) [[note]] Dinosaurs bloodily exploded, slashed and decapitated.[[/note]] |
| 239 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheMarvelousMisadventuresOfFlapjack'' [[note]] Plenty of extremely nightmarish and disgusting, yet cartoonish and comical imagery that would rank much higher if presented realistically, such as an episode where K'nuckles explodes into an ocean of blood and LudicrousGibs after one too many candy-coated hot dogs and an episode where the residents of Stormalong Harbor all get infected by TheBlackDeath, resulting in lots of really nasty, Creator/DavidCronenberg-style {{body horror}}.[[/note]] |
| 240 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Pantheon}}'' (2022) [[note]] A character is held down and has his scalp removed, than his brain cut open with a laser to be [[BrainUploading uploaded]] while he's fully conscious and begging for mercy; a woman smashes her arm with a hammer to traumatize her "son"(her bruised arm is shown with blood spattering); the same uploaded man takes revenge on his killer by setting the man's apartment ablaze and burning his innocent wife and children(offscreen).[[/note]] |
| 241 | * ''WesternAnimation/RonalTheBarbarian'' (2011) [[note]] For the prologue and Zandra's introduction scene. Otherwise, level 5.[[/note]] |
| 242 | * ''WesternAnimation/SausageParty'' (2016) [[note]] It would be considered a level 10 if not for the fact most of the deaths are from sentient food.[[/note]] |
| 243 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' [[note]] Difficult to pin-down due to its [[LongRunners monstrously long run]], but generally lands around here. Occasionally bloody slapstick and frequent on-screen death that's usually (though not always) PlayedForLaughs. Body mutilation and blood is frequently seen in the ShowWithinAShow ''JustForFun/TheItchyAndScratchyShow'', which in some cases can skew as high as a hard 9. Additionally, ''WesternAnimation/TreehouseOfHorror'' episodes can reach a level 8 or 9 in their most violent outings, though the comedic nature of them soften things.[[/note]] |
| 244 | * ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' [[note]] Earlier episodes generally peak at level 4 (with exceptions such as Squidward's open heart surgery that spurts actual blood in "Dying for Pie"), but some episodes through seasons 5-8 have stuff that wouldn't be out of place on 9 or 10 if not for the comedic/fantastical presentation; such as characters having their faces torn off, severed eyeballs, sometimes highly detailed organs, muscles and ligaments exposed, turned inside out, skinned alive, and more. Some of the most brutal standouts are the infamous toenail scene from "House Fancy" and Squidward accidentally tearing off his eyebrow, which are depicted much more realistically with agonizingly believable pain expressed from the victim.

| 245 | * ''WesternAnimation/StarshipTroopersInvasion'' (2012) |
| 246 | [[/folder]] |
| 247 | |
| 248 | [[folder:Level 8]] |
| 249 | * ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad'' |
| 250 | * ''WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce'' [[note]]Over the top bloody mutilations, rape, etcetera, to mostly non human characters.[[/note]] |
| 251 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Archer}}'' [[note]] Over the top bloody, brutal, brief killings by gun, edge, explosive, debris, etc. All played for comedy and very little explicit gore.[[/note]] |
| 252 | * ''WesternAnimation/BatmanAssaultOnArkham'' (2014) [[note]] Exploding heads, graphic blood splatter.[[/note]] |
| 253 | * ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheDarkKnightReturns'' (Part 2) (2013) [[note]] It gets a light 8 for a large spray of blood after a villain's head is pushed into a grinder.[[/note]] |
| 254 | * ''WesternAnimation/BlackDynamite'' [[note]] BloodyHilarious shootings, stabbings, dismemberments, gibs and other creative mutations that never break the cheeky tone. Borderline 9. [[/note]] |
| 255 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheBoondocks'' [[note]] Graphic shootings, decapitations, gibs, roadkill, heart-ripping, etc. Most is played for BlackComedy, but's it tends to be startling as it contrasts the series' more dramatic style of humor and often comes out of nowhere.[[/note]] |
| 256 | * ''WesternAnimation/CaptainLaserhawkABloodDragonRemix'' [[note]] For Cody's head exploding and Pagan Min being dismembered and having his face smashed. Otherwise level 7. [[/note]] |
| 257 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Coonskin}}'' (1975) |
| 258 | * ''WesternAnimation/DarkFury'' (2004) |
| 259 | * ''WesternAnimation/DOTADragonsBlood'' |
| 260 | * ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' [[note]] The pre-cancellation episodes are a lot less gory than newer episodes, however, usually peaking around 5 or 6. However seasons after add loads of blood, gore, dismemberment, decapitation and general gratuitous brutality. Some instances border on 10 with highly detailed gore (such as the infamous "whale scene", Brian's run in with a fire hydrant, a Karen having her head smashed by [[Series/GameOfThrones "The Mountain"]] and much more) but on average is on this level.[[/note]] |
| 261 | * ''WesternAnimation/FinalSpace'' [[note]] Gibbing and decapitation of various alien creatures and several humans, many of which are sentient. Much of this is PlayedForLaughs, but a lot isn't, such as Avocato's death in Chapter Six, where his organs are visible outside of his stomach after taking the full force of a sticky bomb.[[/note]] |
| 262 | * ''WesternAnimation/FritzTheCat'' (1972) [[note]] Some graphic and gory results from shooting (exposed viscera, etc.), although too over-the-top for a 9. A disturbing scene where it is implied that a character is gang-raped after being beaten; the character is seen later, naked and traumatized. [[/note]] |
| 263 | * ''WesternAnimation/Gen13TheMovie'' (1998) |
| 264 | * ''WesternAnimation/HeavyMetal'' (1981) |
| 265 | * ''WesternAnimation/HeavyMetal2000'' (2000) |
| 266 | * ''WesternAnimation/MoralOrel'' [[note]] Due to [[spoiler: Nurse Bendy and Ms. Sculptham's horrific, but mostly offscreen sexual abuse, Bloberta mutilating her genitals with power tools (offscreen, also, but you hear her shrieks of pain) and Clay shooting Orel and the wound's infection nearly killing Orel.]] Earlier seasons feature a lot of over-the top BlackComedy Level 7 violence.[[/note]] |
| 267 | * ''Literature/ThePlagueDogs'' (1982) [[note]] Absolutely horrifying torture of innocent animals, borderline 9. Could be a 10 with more explicit gore.[[/note]] |
| 268 | * ''WesternAnimation/SmilingFriends'' [[note]] Fairly frequent blood and gore in a black comedy context. [[spoiler: The death of the forest demon]] in episode 4 is a borderline 9 as he's bloodily ripped limb-to-limb and devoured before being set on fire, but his inhuman appearance and AssholeVictim status keeps it here.[[/note]] |
| 269 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Squidbillies}}'' [[note]] [[StylisticSuck Poorly drawn]] gory violence on human and non-human characters played for laughs.[[/note]] |
| 270 | * ''WesternAnimation/TarzoonShameOfTheJungle'' (1975) |
| 271 | * ''Film/TeamAmericaWorldPolice'' (2004) |
| 272 | * ''WesternAnimation/TerkelInTrouble'' (2004) |
| 273 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Ultramarines}}'' (2010) |
| 274 | * ''WesternAnimation/VanHelsingTheLondonAssignment'' (2004) |
| 275 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Velma}}''[[note]]Much of the violence is intentionally over-the-top and/or unrealistic for comedic purposes, but it's graphic enough to be placed here. We clearly see the aftermath of the serial killings: the corpses of teen girls with the tops of their heads cut off and their brains removed. A student gets his leg graphically cut off with a paper guillotine, with spurting blood. Velma is knocked down by a car, with her face looking bloody and slightly mangled, including a tooth falling out (she's fully recovered by the next scene). Some of Velma's hallucinations include bloodless yet disturbing BodyHorror such as vines going up her nose, claws going beneath her skin into her chest and the skin on her face melting away. Diya's eyeball keeps popping out and being pushed back, with a clear view of the socket but no blood. [[spoiler:The villain]] is fatally impaled by a stalagmite; the death is offscreen though a large amount of blood splashes on the characters and we see the gruesome aftermath.[[/note]] |
| 276 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers'' |
| 277 | * ''WesternAnimation/WatershipDown'' (1978) [[note]] Here for a dead, blood-covered rabbit with a torn out throat. Otherwise, level 6 at most. Rare example of a non-literary work aimed at kids at this level.[[/note]] |
| 278 | * ''WesternAnimation/XavierRenegadeAngel'' [[note]] Baby-eating and all types of surreal mutilations, but done in a completely humorous fashion with early [=PS2=] game-style visuals.[[/note]] |
| 279 | * ''WesternAnimation/YoungJusticeRevivalSeries'' [[note]] Pre-cancellation, the series was a 4.[[/note]] |
| 280 | [[/folder]] |
| 281 | |
| 282 | [[folder:Level 9]] |
| 283 | * ''WesternAnimation/ArcherDreamland'' |
| 284 | * ''WesternAnimation/Beowulf2007'' (2007) [[note]] The director's cut version sits on this range. The theatrical version sits on 7. [[/note]] |
| 285 | * ''WesternAnimation/BlueEyeSamurai'' (2023) [[note]] A very hard 9, only kept from a 10 by the relative lack of process detail and distance given by the art style. Tons of gory stabbings, bodies sliced in half, teeth used as bullets, torture with multiple implements (some improvised) and so on. [[/note]] |
| 286 | * ''WesternAnimation/ConstantineCityOfDemons'' (2018) [[note]] People bloodily sliced in half, heads messily ripped apart, spine ripped out, arm torn down to the bone, pool filled with liquified human remains, battered face with brains exposed, repeated bloody face stabbing, demons gorily crushed, splattered and torn apart, demon exploding with guts going across a room, large pile of gory animal carcasses. Borderline 10.[[/note]] |
| 287 | * ''WesternAnimation/DrawnTogether'' |
| 288 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Felidae}}'' (1994) [[note]] It sits on this range because of the multiple gory deaths of cats seen throughout the film. The most extreme example is [[spoiler:Claudandus]] being sliced open with his guts spilling out, which is a hard 9 at that. [[/note]] |
| 289 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheHauntedWorldOfElSuperbeasto'' (2009) |
| 290 | * ''WesternAnimation/HazbinHotel'' (2023) [[note]] For the extremely graphic sequence of [[spoiler: Angel being tortured, restrained and raped in extremely cruel and realistic ways during the "Poison" song.]] Otherwise a hard 7 for bloody, gory and messy but incredibly silly and over-blown violence on unrealistic characters, with some blood and gore but nothing especially gruesome. [[/note]] |
| 291 | * ''WesternAnimation/HeavyTraffic'' (1973) [[note]] A graphic slow-motion headshot with visible bits of skull and brain. A woman is seen briefly, but graphically, dismembering a giant penis with an axe, in a bizarre series of visions. [[/note]] |
| 292 | * ''Film/ToYourLastDeath'' (2020) [[note]] Smashed head shown, head split in half, arms chainsawed off, body gorily crushed by elevator, victim repeatedly slashes themselves graphically before they are decapitated, aftermath of body with all of it's limbs and head cut off. Borderline 10.[[/note]] |
| 293 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfVoxMachina'' [[note]] Is a hard 9 despite some of the deaths being played for Black Comedy due to generally containing a variety of graphic violence towards fantasy creatures, the undead, and humans such as decapitations, bisections (with intestines usually visible), and all other varieties of mutilation. The death of [[spoiler: Professor Anders]], who gets his jaw blown off in slow motion before having his head obliterated, and an undead giant being sloppily sliced down the middle after multiple swings border on 10.[[/note]] |
| 294 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Mutafukaz}}'' (2017) [[note]] Disemboweled bodies of humanoids and rats. Head gorily blown in half. Superhuman is shot in the eye, and is riddled with bullets before being finished off with a messy headshot (this borders on 10). Otherwise an 8 for many messy headshots, graphically spewing blood, throats eaten out, etc.[[/note]] |
| 295 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Rejected}}'' (2000) [[note]] A stick figure's eye explodes and begins gushing blood in a geyser onto another. Another stick figure rips a piece of another stick figure's stomach out, leaking organs and blood, and beats them to death with it then wears the part of flesh as a hat. A cloud person's undrawn anus begins leaking rivers of blood which they drown in. Incredibly simplistically drawn and played for BlackComedy, which takes the edge off.[[/note]] |
| 296 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheShiveringTruth'' [[note]] Very messy and sometimes nightmarish stop-motion gore. Borderline 10 but doesn't quite reach the level due to the BlackComedy.[[/note]] |
| 297 | * ''WesternAnimation/SuicideSquadHellToPay'' (2018) |
| 298 | * ''WesternAnimation/ToddMcFarlanesSpawn'' |
| 299 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Trese}}'' |
| 300 | [[/folder]] |
| 301 | |
| 302 | [[folder:Level 10]] |
| 303 | * ''WesternAnimation/BloodOfZeus'' [[note]] Extremely graphic and bloody violence consisting of pretty much all types of mutilations and brutality, with victims often reduced to piles of gore. Of particular note is [[spoiler:Acrisius']] [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill drawn-out]], [[CruelAndUnusualDeath torturous death]] at the hands of Seraphim, in which he's [[AnArmAndALeg progressively dismembered]], [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice stabbed in the chest]], and then [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown pounded]] into an [[LudicrousGibs unrecognizable pile of viscera]] post-mortem.[[/note]] |
| 304 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Boogie}}'' (2009) [[note]] Gory dismemberments, head-explosions, HighPressureBlood and [[spoiler: the BigBad brutally beaten by a woman with a stiletto]]. Although it is mostly played for BlackComedy, it's so gory that it earns this level. [[/note]] |
| 305 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheBoysDiabolical'' [[note]] Absurdly gory, brutal mutilations inflicted on all sorts of unfortunate victims. [[/note]] |
| 306 | * ''WesternAnimation/Castlevania2017'' [[note]] Gruesome eviscerations and mutilations of all sorts, often resulting in characters being reduced to bloody piles of limbs and guts. Some particularly noteworthy examples are [[spoiler:the massacre of Târgoviște in the very first episode, with many innocent people being grotesquely butchered and brutalized by Dracula's forces; the gruesome displays of horrifically mutilated corpses throughout Gresit in the second episode; Striga's bloody rampage in "Walk Away", with [[MookHorrorShow several helpless villagers]] as well as some horses shown getting cleaved in half, dismembered and mauled with lots and lots of extreme gore; and the majority of the episode "Death Magic", with just about every horrific act imaginable being put on display; not to mention the scene where Alucard gets [[RapeAsDrama brutally, viciously and savagely raped]] by Sumi and Taka for several minutes during a threesome before the two try to kill him, which also scores a 10 with ease due to its sheer inhumanity.]] [[/note]] |
| 307 | * ''WesternAnimation/CastlevaniaNocturne'' |
| 308 | * ''WesternAnimation/CelebrityDeathmatch'' [[note]] The original "Cartoon-Sushi" shorts are more of a 5 with Looney Tunes-esque violence with bloodless cartoon gore but the full series upgrades to incredibly nasty and detailed gory violence ranging from skinning to melting to pulverizing, shredding, tearing and oh so many creative combos of all of the above. Despite the BlackComedy, it's still brutal enough for this level. Surprisingly, this series was rated TV-14.[[/note]] |
| 309 | * ''WesternAnimation/DeadSpaceAftermath'' (2011) [[note]] Every hideous mutilation imaginable.[[/note]] |
| 310 | * ''WesternAnimation/DeadSpaceDownfall'' (2008) |
| 311 | * ''[[WesternAnimation/DrawnTogether Drawn Together: The Movie]]'' (2010) [[note]] Deliberately sickening depravity throughout; from puppies getting stomped to paste as a film producer masturbates, babies cannibalized, a progressively rotting corpse getting violated repeatedly in increasingly grotesque ways, and more.[[/note]] |
| 312 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Farzar}}'' [[note]] Lots and lots of genital mutilation and other extreme gore.[[/note]] |
| 313 | * ''WesternAnimation/HarleyQuinn2019'' [[note]] Insanely bloody, brutal, sadistic, vicious, messy violence with all sorts of very creative and grisly mutilations, gory overkill and consistently extremely gruesome deaths, almost always via LudicrousGibs. This includes many innocent victims. Despite the violence's [[BloodyHilarious over-the-top nature]] and all of it being PlayedForLaughs, it's still graphic and detailed enough to reach this level.[[/note]] |
| 314 | * ''WesternAnimation/Invincible2021'' [[note]] Scarily realistic, gory brutality that [[BloodierAndGorier goes way beyond]] its [[ComicBook/{{Invincible}} source material]]'s sheer {{gorn}}, with the absolutely and unexpectedly ''messy'' massacre of [[spoiler:the Guardians of the Globe]] in the very first episode and [[spoiler:[[Characters/Invincible2021OmniMan Omni-Man]] [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown brutally beating down his son]] and all of the causalities that follows (especially during the ''[[NightmareFuel infamous]]'' [[{{Trainstopping}} subway scene]])]] in the first season finale being the most memorable examples. Aside from that, countless humans and alien creatures are shown getting constantly horrifically reduced to LudicrousGibs as well as being hideously mutilated in the worst ways possible.[[/note]] |
| 315 | * ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueDarkApokolipsWar'' (2020) [[note]] Many DC superheroes and supervillains you've grown up to love depicted being brutally slaughtered in extremely graphic ways, including getting torn in half, decapitated and killed in all sorts of ''Franchise/MortalKombat''-style executions. [[/note]] |
| 316 | * ''WesternAnimation/KingStarKing'' |
| 317 | * ''WesternAnimation/KorgothOfBarbaria'' |
| 318 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheLastDaysOfConeyIsland'' (2015) [[note]] For when Shorty murders his mother, and the real life footage of JFK's assassination. Otherwise it's on range 8.[[/note]] |
| 319 | * ''WesternAnimation/LoveDeathAndRobots'' [[note]] Not all shorts are violent, but several; most notably ''Sonnie's Edge'' (monsters tearing each other limb from limb, head stomped to pulp), ''Shape-Shifters'' (lycans savagely and elaborately tearing eachother and humans apart), ''The Secret War'' (gruesomely massacred villagers, including children), ''Sucker of Souls'' (extreme overkill on innocent victim, exposed genitals obliterated by shotgun), ''Snow In The Desert'' (body parts annihilated by heavy gunfire), ''Kill Team Kill'' (cyborg bear maiming people in the most brutal ways), ''Bad Travelling'' (bodies nastily smashed and eaten, bisected and continually rotting re-animated corpse), ''In Vaulted Halls Entombed'' (victims eaten beyond recognition by parasites; one lives and falls apart as he walks), and to a lesser extent ''The Drowned Giant'' (it's not violent persay but features very detailed and gory decomposition and deconstruction of a giant human corpse) dip into serious {{gorn}}.[[/note]] |
| 320 | * ''WebVideo/MadGod'' (2021) [[note]] Extremely nightmarish stop-motion gore, torture, body horror and disturbing imagery. This includes several bound victims getting constantly electrocuted and shitting their guts out as well as all kinds of horrid mutilations on corpses on surgical tables, [[spoiler: with the {{decoy protagonist}} themself becoming one of them in a prolonged and excessively gruesome sequence]]. [[/note]] |
| 321 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Metalocalypse}}'' [[note]] Sequences of often-innocent fans, staff, animals, etc, getting hideously mutilated in the most [[MemeticMutation brutal]] ways imaginable. Despite most of it played for BlackComedy, it's way too gory to be placed any lower. Music videos also feature more straight faced violence.[[/note]] |
| 322 | * ''WesternAnimation/MonkeyDust'' [[note]] Every type of horrible slaughter possible, plus child abuse, pedophilia and rape, all played for laughs.[[/note]] |
| 323 | * ''WesternAnimation/MortalKombatLegends'': |
| 324 | ** ''[[WesternAnimation/MortalKombatLegendsScorpionsRevenge Scorpion's Revenge]]'' (2020) [[note]] Repeated over-the-top brutal and gory mutilations, with bodies being constantly hacked to mangled pulp, torn apart and brutalized in just about the most graphic way possible.[[/note]] |
| 325 | ** ''[[WesternAnimation/MortalKombatLegendsBattleOfTheRealms Battle of the Realms]]'' (2021) [[note]] Even gorier than ''Scorpion's Revenge''.[[/note]] |
| 326 | ** ''[[WesternAnimation/MortalKombatLegendsSnowBlind Snow Blind]]'' (2022) [[note]] Every bit as gory as the previous films (at ''least''), but with much more sadism as Kano and his goons butcher many innocents and sympathetic characters. Especially the exceptionally nasty head trauma by headshot, motorcycle, and torture by repeated bashing before tearing it off in the nastiest way possible while the now unrecognizable victim is still barely alive and gurgling. Kano's death is no slouch either, [[spoiler: as he gets very graphically and messily crushed into a gory pulp between the moving gears of the Hourglass, complete with his eyeball [[EyeScream popping out]] and flying off towards the camera.]][[/note]] |
| 327 | * ''WesternAnimation/MrPickles'' [[note]] Extreme, sadistic, over-the-top bloody violence. This includes all sorts of brutally gory, torturous mutilations (including a few disturbingly sexualized ones) that include people being flayed alive, messily dismembered, torn to disgusting pieces, gruesomely sodomized, raped, eviscerated, melted layer by layer, and much more. Despite all of it being played for BlackComedy, it's still gory enough for this level. [[/note]] |
| 328 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Nerdland}}'' (2017) [[note]] For the "XV" montage, which features just about every hideous mutilation imaginable being shown in extremely brutal, gory detail.[[/note]] |
| 329 | * ''WesternAnimation/OnyxEquinox'' [[note]] Fitting its roots in Mesoamerican mythologies there is no punches held about the human body. Examples of grotesqueries include guards having their faces sliced off and on the ground by coati-things, Tezcatlipoca manifesting a body by making jaguars maul each other into goo and Xipe Totec's hosts being flayed and becoming blobs of flesh.[[/note]] |
| 330 | * ''WesternAnimation/Primal2019'' [[note]] For the ape-men rampage with extremely gory dismemberment, disebowelment and head-explosions inflicted on said ape-men. Otherwise, it's a very hard 9 for all the assorted graphic violence towards various creatures. Season 2 includes violence against modern humans that is still a 9 due to being bloody and fairly brief with no internal detail visible except for a few brief shots of decomposing corpses.[[/note]] |
| 331 | * ''WesternAnimation/RenAndStimpyAdultPartyCartoon'' [[note]] Mainly for Ren brutally torturing small animals in "Ren Seeks Help".[[/note]] |
| 332 | * ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'' [[note]] Usually closer to a level 7 or 8, but occasionally dips into ''extreme'' {{Gorn}}, such as "Look Who's Purging Now", "Pickle Rick", "Interdemensional Cable II" and others. Surprisingly, the first 2 seasons were rated at a TV-14 before being bumped up to a more fitting TV-MA later. Despite being a comedy show, the violence is often depicted with straight brutal nihilism.[[/note]] |
| 333 | * ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken'' [[note]] Nostalgic characters and many others get maimed in the most creatively gruesome ways imaginable. All is played for BlackComedy but some skits lean way more heavily into the ''black''.[[/note]] |
| 334 | * ''WesternAnimation/SeisManos'' [[note]] Many instances of brutal violence and gory overkill throughout the show to human and demon alike; innocent and evil; neither pregnant women nor children are spared. From a cartel jefe being gorily decapitated and then torn to pieces and cannibalized, to demons being impaled, decapitated and then gutted, others having their heads smashed before being shredded and eaten by their own. And that's just in the first 2 episodes.[[/note]] |
| 335 | * ''WesternAnimation/SolarOpposites'' [[note]] Generally bystanders die very gory, brutal, and detailed deaths on several occasions. The goriest scene is a bunch of neo-nazis killed in a bar. [[/note]] |
| 336 | * ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' [[note]] Regular over-the-top gory deaths; from gory dismemberment, exploding, crushing, mauling, blood orgies, depraved sexual episodes, and much, much more; [[WouldHurtAChild even to children]]. Especially the perpetually 9 year old Kenny's [[TheyKilledKennyAgain repeated]] deaths. Also, one episode contains brief, but very graphic footage of an actual sex change operation (male to female). Despite all being played for laughs, many scenes are still clearly meant to shock and disturb.[[/note]] |
| 337 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheSpineOfNight'' (2021) [[note]] Excessively brutal and sloppy mutilations sometimes on nude bodies and including slaughter of innocents.[[/note]] |
| 338 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Superjail}}'' [[note]] Extended sequences of the most creatively vicious mutilations imaginable. The sheer gratuity of it all makes up for the comedic context.[[/note]] |
| 339 | * ''Animation/WaltzWithBashir'' (2008) [[note]] For the real life footage of massacred civilians at the end.[[/note]] |
| 340 | * ''WesternAnimation/WhenBlackBirdsFly'' (2015) [[note]] Same as WesternAnimation/WhereTheDeadGoToDie[[/note]] |
| 341 | * ''WesternAnimation/WhereTheDeadGoToDie'' (2012) [[note]] Grotesque surreal body horror, disembowelment, eyes gouged out, extreme perversion, abuse and other hideous scenes, several involving children.[[/note]] |
