A boy's grandparents mention the death of his mother.
This show features lots of violence and gore. Teenage students, teachers, and other adults are killed in horrific ways. Most deaths are caused by chance and the environment. In the TV version, violent scenes are censored by dark circles, but the censoring still allows some gore to be seen. The death scenes are explicit, graphic, and frightening.
Blood, or blood-like substance is seen spread out in the opening animation.
