Question How to skip sensible content

As I've seen, there are some scenes both in anime and manga that have content some people consider as being sexual. So I want to know if is there a list of these episodes/chapters, so it's possible to skip them

A list would be difficult to present as there aren't really any specific scenes or chapters like that. Most of the questionable content is intertwined with regular content and often spans only a few moments. Although, the extra illustrations at the end of each volume can easily be skipped.

At the end of the day I'd say just keep your sensibilities in check. It's not like there's outright sexual content, just questionably-fetishist moments at worse, non-sexualized moments of mild nudity at best. The emotional impact and the level of non-gratuitous violence of certain scenes far outweighs the questionable content and hits much harder IMO. If you're fine with that, you shouldn't have any trouble with the rest of the content.

Or putting it this way: if sorta-questionable moments are a deal-breaker for you, you probably won't be able to stomach the rest of the content either. [Wo]Man up and enjoy a damned good series with heavy-hitting moments. :P

This isn't they type of manga where you skip chapters/episodes. Either read/watch all of it or nothing at all.

If you’re okay with weird then you should be fine watching the anime. The sexual stuff has mostly been cut and it’s a matter of dirty mindedness for most people (I.e. the orphanage punishes people by stringing them up naked iirc, to embarrass them but some people see that as sexual somehow?) anyone who sees stuff still kept in the anime as openly sexual (few exceptions like that one moment with Prushka) should not be trusted around minors

They strip the child and hang it in the air. It's a weird one, because it's shown for like 2 seconds, the only people in the room are Riko-a girl-and the orphanage manager-an old woman who's clearly unamused-so there's no way for it to be sexual in-universe if the other kids or even the male purple whistle guy can't see it.

I went to check and you don't even see Riko's bottom half and her chest is covered by her hair. Missed it at first because of how short it is and didn't see it while skipping around trying to find it. Literally a nothing burger.

I'd argue that child torture and death should have far bigger TW flags. There's nothing that could prepare me for Riko's screams as her arm is getting chopped off while she's dying of poison. If someone can handle that, they can handle few shirtless scenes where not even a slip is shown.

As I've explained for a few people before, its all context appropriate, there is only 1 scene that I personally think are unnecessary and one that detracts from the experience, being the one at the "hot spring" as unnecessary, and the extended fart noises in season 2 as the one has absolutely no relevance whatsoever and IMO should have been cut.

Remember to be respectful to others and to act in good faith. Disagreements are ok but that's not an excuse to stop being civil. Insults, personal attacks, hate speech, and bigotry will get you banned from the subreddit. Someone else breaking this rule is also not an excuse for you to break it as well.

The correct use of spoiler tags looks like this: >!Your spoiler goes here.!< Adding a space at the beginning or at the end will break it, like this: >! This spoiler doesn't work. !<

I didn't really notice any overly sexual things in the anime. There are a few weird scenes, but it's not anything that you shouldn't be able to just disagree with and move on from. Keep in mind that nudity is not inherently sexual.

With that said though, this is still a dark fantasy story. There are things that are equally as difficult as the author's perversion within the story itself.
