Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Late 18th Century France: a time of great trial and turmoil—and for none moreso than French Secret Police member d'Eon de Beaumont, whose older sister Lia has just been found floating in a coffin in the Seine River. Lia was an accomplished spy for the French Court, which recently sent her to faraway lands on a mysterious assignment. But now she's turned up murdered, and it's up to D'Eon to find her killers. No sooner has he stumbled upon the Ancient Conspiracy that might be responsible for it, than he, his comrades, and his entire household all fall victim to a vicious attack, which only D'Eon himself manages to survive. The King of France, Louis XV, graciously allows D'Eon to retrace his sister's steps and investigate her murder, and to that end he gives him a new set of comrades; all of them are Chevaliers who, like D'Eon, have vowed their unswerving loyalty to the King, even unto death.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Of course...this isn't the only help D'Eon will receive during his investigations.It seems the angry soul of his murdered sister, Lia, has decided not to pass onto the next life just yet. She has some unfinished business to attend to. And she has found the perfect vessel through which she can carry out her revenge—D'Eon's own still-living body...Loosely inspired (very loosely) on the historical spy D'Eon de Beaumont, whose crossdressing (in retrospect, she was probably a transgender woman, and she insisted for the latter half of her life that she had been a woman all along and had been disguised as a man previously) and extraordinarily half-hearted attempts at espionage caused a major international incident.The show itself is based on a series of novels by Tow Ubukata; a manga was released at around the same time as the show, but is completely different, being described by Ubukata as "a humorous attempt at combining d'Eon de Beaumont, eighteenth century France, and a superhero story." While the anime is a serious historical drama with mystical elements, the manga is a Seinen action series similar to Hellsing, hell, the manga so similar to Kotah Hirano art style that one wonders if it was an homage or a rip-off. Despite being a completely different animal, it's definitely worth a look.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })The show noticeably draws from the 1970s Shōjo anime The Rose of Versailles. | |

Only Six Faces: Some character designs are nearly identical, like the Queen of France, and the Empress of Russia. Lia and D'Eon don't count, since they are supposed to look similar. | |

Hermetic Magic | |
| Le Chevalier d'Eon / int_35d7be67 | comment |
Hermetic Magic: The Functional Magic system used by the Ancient Conspiracy is a complex combination of Alchemy and Rune magic. It's practitioners are called "Poets" and the "spells" they chant are actually Psalms from the Bible. (A poet has to have their hearts "opened to the Psalms" in order to use them, though.) | |

Downer Ending: Considering it takes place right before Maximilien Robespierre's Reign of Terror, it was a Foregone Conclusion that it would end this way. The show still makes a very fine point of ending things on a tragic note, though. The last scene of the series is of D'Eon as a sad old man who has lost everyone he ever loved. | |

First-Episode Resurrection: An interesting variation; It's not his death and resurrection which gives D'Eon his powers, but his sister's. And it takes a traumatic event to "activate" them, as often befits this trope. | |

Brother–Sister Incest: D'Eon and Lia are close (uncomfortably close, now that they have to share the same body), but they've never felt anything improper towards each other. However, the relationship between half-siblings Lia and Maximilien Robespierre was almost consummated, although neither of them knew they were related to the other at the time of their romance. | |

Dragged into Drag: While planning to attend Empress Elizabeta's masquerade ball, the four main characters find out that it is a crossdressing themed ball. This leads to D'eon dressing up as Lia, who is mostly okay with it, and Robin dressing up as a young girl as well. Robin is embarrassed deeply and made fun of by Durand and Teillagory, who decide to not go to the ball and therefore don't dress up as women. | |

This is played with later on; it is revealed about halfway through the series that when two souls occupy the same body, they slowly lose their individuality.

Alternate History | |
| Le Chevalier d'Eon / int_a86069f | comment |
Alternate History: An interesting example: instead of beginning from a point of divergence, it begins at a point that is in accordance with actual history, and slowly begins to diverge as the plot unfolds, and various historical figures meet very different fates than they did in real life. It acknowledges this in the closing credits, where the dates of death are given for the real Madam De Pompadour and Queen Marie, who died two years apart. But in the series, they die on the same day. The show cleverly uses this trope to fool the viewer into thinking that its version of Robespierre is part of the alternate history. In fact, the man who goes by that name for most of the series isn't the one we know from history; the "real" Robespierre doesn't reveal himself until the final episode, and things line up much closer to reality with him. | |

Spoiler Opening | |
| Le Chevalier d'Eon / int_cd83fa5b | comment |
Spoiler Opening: If you pay attention during the opening, you can clearly see that Teillagory is kneeling in front of the Philippe II, Duke of Orléans. Considering Philippe is portrayed as a villain, Teillagory turning out to be a mole is not very surprising at all. However, you don't see the Duke's face, or anything but the very top of his head, making it near-impossible to determine who Teillagory is kneeling before, so it's easy to just write off the scene as being emblematic of his status as a loyal knight. Of course, once the revelation is made, it seems obvious. | |

Historical In-Joke | |
| Le Chevalier d'Eon / int_dfe57573 | comment |
Historical In-Joke: The entire series is one (albeit a very serious one) which details the behind-the-scenes events that lead up to the French Revolution and Catherine the Great's rise to power in Russia, amongst others. Many of the characters (including the hero) are actually based on real-life people from that era. | |

Well-Intentioned Extremist: You can't swing a dead cat in this series without hitting a Well-Intentioned Extremist. Even the heroes sometimes engage in extreme behavior in the pursuit of their duties. | |
