"Ulysses: Joan of Arc and the Alchemist Knight" is based on late medieval Europe and features historical figures such as Joan of Arc.
During this time, brutal conflicts would have been commonplace, but because many of the main characters are portrayed as beautiful girls, the cruelty is toned down somewhat, making the story easier to watch.

In "Ulysses: Joan of Arc and the Alchemist Knight," many historical figures are transformed into beautiful girls, making for a story that's not just complicated but also full of cute elements, making it enjoyable for traditional anime fans.
On the other hand, the scene where the protagonist Montmorency and the heroine Joan of Arc kiss is emphasized, so some people might find it too embarrassing to watch (lol).
Fairies and supernatural powers exist

"Ulysses" The concept of "Joan of Arc and the Alchemy Knight" is what if fairies and beings with supernatural powers existed in late medieval Europe... One of the themes is the extremely fantastical world view.
The somewhat heavy, realistic world view is successfully blended with fantasy, and I think people who like this kind of blend of reality and fantasy will be hooked.

Charlotte is a princess of the French royal family, a girl in a rather difficult position in an era of war with several powers, including England.
Ever since childhood, he was embroiled in complicated political intrigues beyond his control, and coupled with his inherently arrogant personality, he grew fed up with many things as an adult and left his political activities to the Prime Minister, La Tremoille.

Charlotte was tired of the complicated political maneuvering, but after meeting Jeanne, she was drawn to her cheerful, open-minded personality and belief in hope, renewing her resolve to fight England once again.
Furthermore, after reuniting with the protagonist, Montmorency, for the first time in seven years, she regains her childhood energy and becomes proactive in overthrowing England and taking the throne herself.
Charlotte is known for her huge breasts

"Ulysses" Many of the female characters in Joan of Arc and the Alchemy Knight have large breasts, and the second heroine, Richemont, also has large breasts, and La Hire falls into the huge breasts category, but Charlotte surpasses them with super huge breasts.
Charlotte showed signs of having large breasts even as a child, but she was labeled an illegitimate child because her mother, Isabeau, had relationships with many men, and as she was constantly exposed to the curious gazes of men, she hated men from childhood.
Charlotte doesn't fight, but she seems to have the talent to be a knight.

Charlotte is not depicted in combat and is not a girl who would fight on the front lines. However, she was actually the second most talented princess knight candidate after Richemont at the knight training school, and appears to have exceptional martial arts talent.
Charlotte clearly has a non-combatant vibe, but we shouldn't forget that she is a brilliant student who was second in grades at knight training school.
Charlotte has a more haughty air in the original work

This may be interpreted differently depending on the reader's sensibilities, but while Charlotte in the anime has the air of a graceful young lady, the Charlotte in the original work seems a bit more haughty and arrogant.
This may be due to the voice quality of Charlotte's voice actress, Saori Onishi, but the anime emphasizes her more of a kind-hearted princess than I imagined in the original work.
Charlotte's charm lies in her generosity, contrary to her appearance.

Charlotte's charming personality lies in her generosity and tolerance of others, despite her appearance and haughty demeanor. She also acts as a big sister to Richemont and Philippe.
Philippe, in particular, deeply regrets the illicit relationship between his father and Charlotte's mother, Isabeau, which damaged Charlotte's reputation. However, Charlotte, believing Philippe to be innocent, is generous enough to cherish him as a dear friend.
