Young Richemont's battle scene

This is an original scene for the anime that is not in the original work, but I think it was good to have a scene where Richemont fights an English soldier as a child.
However, Richemont should have shown her talent as a princess knight from this time on, so it was disappointing that she struggled against just one English soldier.
From watching the original work, Richemont seemed to have a talent for martial arts that allowed her to easily defeat four or five soldiers even as a child, so I think it would have been better if she was portrayed as stronger even as a child.

Jeanne's first appearance scene

Jeanne's first appearance scene was cute, surrounded by the fairy tribe, and while it didn't have the dramatic atmosphere of the original, I think it was good as it was.
However, it seems that the anime fans were shocked that the heroine Joan of Arc didn't appear in the first episode of the anime (lol).
Personally, I would have liked to see Jeanne, the step-sister of the main character Montmorency, who appeared in the original, appear as well.

The scene where Jeanne and Charlotte first meet

Charlotte didn't believe in the existence of Saint Jeanne, the savior of the kingdom, but she became interested in Jeanne, who saw through the double, and the scene where she was saved by Jeanne's cheerfulness and kindness is a famous scene in both the original and anime.
It was a wonderful scene in which Charlotte resolved to make a comeback with the cute Jeanne, and it was a scene that greatly influenced the subsequent developments.

Montmorency and Jeanne's beau scene

This is a scene that Montmorency is envious of many times in the story, but the scene where Jeanne, who has become Ulysses and is addicted to the elixir, repeatedly asks for baisei is a famous sexual scene.
In particular, after becoming Ulysses for the first time, Montmorency is confused when she asks for baisei in the forest, but Jeanne half-forcefully attacks Montmorency and baiseis with him, which was quite shocking in many ways.

Philippe's peeing scene

The scene where "Peeing Princess Philip" wets herself in the prologue of the anime was impressive in many ways.
Well, the anime is short, and unlike the original, they can't explain the details of the characters, so maybe it wouldn't have been memorable if they hadn't made the plain Philip wet himself.

The scene where La Hire comes to save everyone

La Hire's performance stands out in the original work, but in the anime, she appears with intense music and does a great job, so she may be a more prominent character in the anime.
In particular, when she came to rescue Astaroth Montmorency Richemont, who was captured by La Tremoille's scheme, she was cool, just as you would expect from a mercenary and the strongest female warrior.
【Ulysses: Jeanne d'Arc and the Alchemist Knight】4th place in the ranking of famous scenes
The scene where the four young people swear eternal friendship

The most famous scene in the prologue is the scene where the four young people swear eternal friendship.
This is also a very nice scene in both the original and the anime, but the voice actors' performances in the anime were particularly excellent, and the lines were full of emotion.

The scene where Astaroth first appears

When Richemont was captured by England and Montmorency was researching the Philosopher's Stone to obtain the power to save Richemont, the fairy queen Astaroth appeared.
Needless to say, this was the start of Montmorency's long journey as an alchemist, and it was the scene that led to his seven years of hard work creating the elixir under Astaroth's guidance.
【Ulysses: Jeanne d'Arc and the Alchemist Knight】2nd place in the ranking of famous scenes
Scene of Saint Jeanne inspiring the French army

Jeanne won the trust of the French princess Charlotte, who resolved to fight to the end against England, but the French people still feared that their military strength was too low.
In the midst of all this, the French people were inspired by the sight of Jeanne waving the flag of the white fleur-de-lis and encouraging the people, and it was a memorable scene when they renewed their resolve that together with Jeanne they could defeat England.

The scene where Jeanne transforms into Ulysses and crushes the enemy

『Ulysses The most interesting scene in "Joan of Arc and the Alchemy Knight" is undoubtedly the scene where Jeanne transforms into Ulysses and crushes her enemies with overwhelming power.
The power of the Philosopher's Stone amplifies Jeanne's emotion of "arrogance," transforming her into a warlike character that no longer resembles her former self. The scene where she mows down her enemies with incredible fighting power is truly spectacular.

Catherine's appearance scene

This scene is from after the beginning, so I didn't rank it, but I was surprised at how cute Montmorency's cousin Catherine was.
Honestly, Catherine is so cute that you forget about the main characters, but I think she could be even more of a little sister character than Jeanne.

I've put together a list of famous scenes from the beginning, but the first place is the scene where Jeanne transforms into Ulysses and crushes the enemy.
However, if I may interject my personal opinion, I think Catherine is even cuter than Jeanne.
