 Violence : This show has an age restriction (6+). It's meant for kids and doesn't contain real violence. It has several short scenes with swordfighting, punching and explosions. A few characters are killed, in an exceptional case you actually see this happen. For example Dr. Zarkale in Episode 20. Only the Robots in the series are often 'killed' on the screen. Many characters in the series are hit by spells of Queen Dark, turning them into something else instead of really killing them. In some cases she wants to kill someone, but instead she sends that person back to his own time.
