The men in the film are "in love" with Sheeta, and she's only a girl of thirteen years old. This is made for laughs.

A few very mild innuendos, nothing bad.

A girl falls and lands on a boy's head, both of them are unharmed at the same time the scene is done in a more humorous manner.

Two men get into a fist fight in a town.

Some scenes of mildly intense action pepper the film. Explosions are frequently shown during these moments.

Pazu and Sheeta are frequently shown in considerable danger.

Many guns are fired throughout the duration of the film. One bullet fired near the end of the film grazes Pazu's cheek, followed by a brief spurt of blood.

One "damn" as an interjection in the subtitled version. Milder lenguage like "idiot" or "stupid".

The word "Laputa" is taken from the novel Gulliver's Travels, and is based on the Spanish phrase meaning "the whore". However, the implication of the word in this film is unintentional, as writer and director Hayao Miyazaki had no idea about the true meaning of the word "Laputa" before putting it in the film.

There are several instances of the main characters almost falling from considerable heights (to their deaths), such as from a bridge across a ravine and off the sides of aircrafts. They don't get hurt, though.

The scenes towards the end with Muska can be quite intense.

Most of the action scenes are relatively intense.
