Most of it involves large-scale robot battles with explosions, property destruction, and machines being smashed apart, but with no blood, gore, or realistic injury. Slapstick moments, such as characters being bonked on the head, are also present. The animated, non-realistic nature of the combat makes it less intense than live-action violence.
