YMMV / Puella Magi Tart Magica

• Alternative Character Interpretation: See here.
• Anti-Climax Boss: Queen Isabeau, 'the Woman who Sold Her Country', comes across as this when she's finally fought. The entire storyline she's pictured as The Dreaded who sends Charles VII into a mental breakdown simply by showing her face in front of him and wreaks the heroes' entire line-up in one encounter, one of those rare humans who outsmarted the Incubator into giving her a power that causes chaos in the Incubators' system, and was ambitious enough to Take Over the World with said power. But because of various circumstances, she ends up as the same kind of brain-dead gigantic witches like Walpurgisnacht and Hyades, who only serves as a giant boss enemy with none of her intelligence remaining.
• Draco in Leather Pants: Corbeau has an unusual tendency to be redeemed in fanwork (some even treating it as a borderline Foregone Conclusion). This is despite the fact that she was shown torturing servant girls into making contracts and killing people for fun; while her death is noticeably tragic, she isn't exactly high on redeeming qualities. This seems to be down to a mix of her fitting best into Evil Is Cool of the three sisters, as well as her Foe Romance Subtext with Riz providing a decent avenue for shipping.
• Funny Moments:
  • Tart randomly starts Glomping people when drunk.
  • Tart's banner. She made it herself. (And in a Genius Bonus, it's pretty much the same as her actual real-life banner, just with Jesus replaced with Kyubey.)
• Genius Bonus:
  • Eliza's dragon insignia is this symbol◊, supposedly used by the Order of the Dragon. She's an in-universe version of Elizabeth of Luxembourg, whose mother Barbara of Cilli has a hand in the foundation of the Order.
  • Melissa's Soul Gem is a heraldic shield with a grape cluster detail on it, which is a simplified version of her father's coat of arms.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: See here.
• Les Yay: It's a PMMM story; it's pretty much a given.
  • In particular, most of Riz and Jeanne's interactions are full of this. Melissa seems to have a crush on Jeanne, too.
  • England's magical girls. Especially their lengthy bath scene. And then you remember they're sisters...
    • Corbeau in particular seems to like seducing servant girls too much, and spends about half her interactions with Riz blatantly hitting on her.
    • Minou's love of Isabeau is very much not a storge kind of love, given that she kills her own sister Corbeau because she thinks Corbeau doesn't love Isabeau as much as she loves Minou.
• Moral Event Horizon: See here.
• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: Isabeau de Bavierre is revealed to be a witch possessing her formerly human body, and is implied to have retained her intelligence. Her unique state could have revealed a great deal about a witch's mind and thoughts, but Isabeau does no real planning or scheming and acts no differently than a normal witch, showing no particular intellect and mostly being unsettling due to her human form, which she soon sheds anyways.
