The fact that the team included Weiss's injury and she has a much older scar suggests that they won't be squeamish about depicting injuries. However, the very clean way the Beowolves died and the lack of gore when Yang was smashing her way through Junior's mooks suggests that they are not going to go wild with it. This is not going to be hyper-realistic in its portrayal of violence, nor will there be gore-porn like some of the more adult-oriented japanimés.
