* HistoricalCharactersFictionalRelative: Among the manga's array of [[ShownTheirWork well-researched]] historical characters, Marie is one of the few created almost entirely from scratch, which is most likely why the first manga deliberately scratched out her introductory name plate. Her career as an executioner is an amalgamation of Charles-Henri's and her other relatives' achievements in real life, such as her position as Prevote de l'Hotel, which was originally held by her uncle Nicolas and then Charles himself following their father's retirement, as well as her [[spoiler: [[ForegoneConclusion upcoming]] duty as the executioner of Marie Antoinette as teased in the first manga]], which was carried out by her nephew Henri.

to:

* AccidentalPublicConfession: Marie invokes this in order to make sure he gets punished for his crimescrimes. Namely she drugs him with a hallucinogenic that makes him see his victims, which in turn causes to rant about his crimes, how he enjoyed them and laugh maniacally....all within earshot of the King, who promptly overturns his pardon and sentences him to death.

* LaserGuidedKarma: On the receiving end of this. His crimes are publicly exposed at a banquet in HIS honor, the King himself suggests that he die, he's dragged to an execution platform, learns that the woman about to execute him is the same woman who engineered the situation to begin with, and when he tries to run Marie forces him to the ground and than cuts his head off. All this while in front of a jeering crowd of poor people (the very people he detests). For good measure his head is also left on display.
