1* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbUPw9-4-Go The opening]], an epic medieval-sounding tune.
2* CompleteMonster: [[GodSaveUsFromTheQueen Dark Queen Orial]] is a serpentine sorceress whose ultimate goal is to one day reign in Hell as the bride of [[{{Satan}} Lucifer]]. Having made a DealWithTheDevil for eternal life, Orial maintains her youth by regularly placing young maidens in magical comas, with one of her victims being Angele, the fiancĂ©e of Prince Argaï. Originally a marauding medieval warlord, Orial eventually conquered the world in a bloody campaign that killed a tenth of the population of the Earth, which she then turned into a dystopic PoliceState in which anyone who steps out of line is either executed or condemned to a HellholePrison. Orial regularly disposes of her own allies at the slightest provocation, and when she learns that Argaï is destined to slay her, she resorts to increasingly extreme attempts at eliminating him and his allies, like burning entire villages, leveling a city block, and razing all of Chinatown. In the end, when she realizes that she has been beaten with no way out, Orial spitefully tries to blow up the Earth.
3* {{Moe}}: Moony.
4* {{Narm}}: Much of the dialogue and the pacing of the individual scenes frequently dip into this.
5* NarmCharm: The show is basically RuleOfCool embodied: The lovechild of a sci-fi dystopian story and a medieval epic with some elements of FilmNoir thrown in the mix, with the backdrop of time travel. (It's described as a mix of ''Literature/SleepingBeauty'' and ''Film/BladeRunner'' in the DVD description.)
