* BittersweetEnding: It wouldn't really be a story about the Maid of Orleans if it ended any other way. [[spoiler:Tart does manage to save France and defeat Isabeau, ending the threat, but as in history, she is tried for heresy and sentenced to death. What's more, her battle with Isabeau ends in Riz, her closest companion, being dealt a HeroicSacrifice, and it taxes her Soul Gem far past its breaking point, only being kept alive by the remains of Riz's wish, to the level that she submits to the execution willingly because the alternative is turning into a witch of near-apocalyptic power. Nonetheless, she does manage to GoOutWithASmile.]]

* KangarooCourt: The famous witch trial is shown at one point, and the narrative provides explanation for just how lopsided it was against Tart, all of which is completely accurate to reality: not only did Bishop Cauchon, a man who was openly in favor of the Treaty of Troyes that Tart's actions nullified, act as judge, but [[HangingJudge he was also acting as prosecution]], and Tart was forced to act as her own representation due to being assigned no defender. Not to mention she was slapped with ''seventy'' accusations at first, which was soon after brought down to twelve.



* ShownTheirWork: At several points in the story the narration explains the historcal and political background of the events and locations that Tart is present for. The end of the first volume contains a one page essay on the history of the UsefulNotes/TheHundredYearsWar, and then explains a bit about Joan of Arc's real life family and hometown. It even has a list of references at the end of the last volume.

Added DiffLines:

* DeliberateValuesDissonance: In Christian spirituality, the soul is usually interpreted as the true, eternal whole of a person, and the body is just a container for it, while in Japanese spirituality, the soul is generally interpreted as a part of the whole with the body. This results in Tart having a very different response to the revelation of how Soul Gems work than the majority of (largely Japanese) magical girls we've seen in the franchise.


Added DiffLines:

* MetaTwist: Over the course of various ''Madoka'' works, one of the most significant reveals is almost always the idea that magical girls ''become'' their Soul Gems instead of simply using them as a focus for their power. Most often, this is treated as a violation of their body and soul, and those aware of this fact tend to become far more cynical as a result. This makes it a surprise that when Tart finds out about it, she's actually ''thrilled''--interpreting it as a sign of becoming more holy by way of manifesting her soul as a physical object beyond the body.

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: For a definition of hero, as Cube is a loyal companion of Tart's group. Ever wonder if a potential magical girl gets too curious about the magical girl system, exploits the Incubators' CannotTellALie policy by asking things most girls won't, and wishes for something that screw the system badly after knowing the context? [[spoiler:Queen Isabeau, [[RedBaron the Woman Who Sold Her Nation]], did just that and transcended the magical girls, the witches, and the Incubators to become a personification of evil because of multiple events that she arranged]].

* RealEventFictionalCause: Because of the amount of magic exist in the story and magical girls are fighting out in open, there are a lot of things that are interpreted differently by the story because of it. Both Charles VI and Charles VII were driven mad because their wife/mother Isabeau's magic is playing with their lives, William Glasdale was found dead in Loire River not because he fought with Jeanne d'Arc but because he spoke out against Corbeau and she killed him as an example, Jeanne was executed despite being successfully rescued by the French Army because she chose to lest her witch will destroy the entire Europe.
