Mild violence appears frequently in this game, in fantastical and realistic guises. Realistic-looking violence towards fantasy characters is common. Hunters can attack monsters which are not a threat to them. They will fall and writhe as if they were real animals, then go limp.

The majority of violence is accompanied by exaggerated blood effects. This applies to humans and animal-like creatures as well as monsters. However, even though humans and animals may appear to bleed, violence towards them is also often accompanied by minimal reactions, light, and stars around their heads or clouds. In many cases, the hunter will simply flinch or get back up, unharmed. When they are defeated by an enemy, they simply faint to the ground – unrealistic considering they have just been mauled by a gigantic beast. They are then carried back to town by human-like cats and awoken.
