Violence / Gore: Nothing I remember.

Nudity / Sexual Content: There’s a quick flash of a dirty drawing on a random school kid’s desk. There are bath and shower scenes but there is towel or water cover. Kazama is seen naked from behind in a scene in which he’s climbing a mountain which is a representation of the battle he is fighting in a particular match.

Theological Themes: None that I remember.

Negative Themes: The lady who owns the table tennis dojo smokes constantly, there is swearing and Peco is shown smoking and getting drunk on liquor filled chocolates.
