* AudienceColoringAdaptation: This is largely considered one of the definitive takes on the Arthurian Legend, at least in regards to the overall story, in part due to being a pretty good AdaptationDistillation of all the stories and putting it together as one narrative.

* ValuesDissonance: Blink and you'll miss it, but Lancelot does actually kill a poor carter in Book XIX for not giving him the cart he's using immediately. See the rape and incest-related entries for more in the main page. This is mitigated somewhat by context: The carter refuses to let Launcelot [[FlashedBadgeHijack use the cart]], and then identifies himself as a servant of Sir Melleagaunce, the recreant knight who had just kidnapped Queen Guinevere. Launcelot kills the carter after he refuses a second time to let him use the cart, i.e., [[WhatAnIdiot the carter identifies himself as an accessory to high treason and then refuses to help the furious, fully-armed knight standing right in front of him.]]

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Sir Percival's unnamed sister is a favourite character. She's the only damsel who [[MenActWomenAre acts as well as is.]] In other tellings this character is named Dindrane, and she's referred to as the "Grail heroine".

** Afraid of being overthrown by his son, King Arthur orders [[NiceJobBreakingItHerod every baby born on May Day to be placed on a ship set to crash and kill them all.]]
** Gawain and his brothers Agravain, Gaheris and Mordred in their shameful murder of [[spoiler:Sir Lamorak de Gales]]. Finding this knight in bed with their mother prompted them to behead her, and then hunt him down, ambush him and kill him in a very unfair fight, four against one. Other knights tend to remind them of this crime and the shame involved.
** King Mark of Cornwall's own murder is compared to the above. He was established as a cowardly ruler, and then became consumed with jealousy when his own nephew Sir Tristram became a famous knight. He married Tristram's lover, Iseult, out of spite, and made several murder attempts despite King Arthur's warnings. He is finally made irredeemable when he [[spoiler:finds Tristram playing the harp to his lady Iseult in their sanctuary, provided by Lancelot, and stabs Tristram there and then, in front of Iseult.]]
