Ulysses: Jeanne d'Arc and the Alchemist Knight (Season 1)

Ulysses: Jeanne d'Arc and the Alchemist Knight (ユリシーズ, 2018) is a Japanese anime series you can watch online on iFILM. Set during the Hundred Years' War, it follows Montmorency — a noble's son who quietly pursues magic and alchemy at a royal knight-training school while France bleeds out on the battlefield.

The French defeat at Agincourt in October 1415 ends everything overnight. The school shuts down, Montmorency becomes a fugitive, and on the run he encounters Jehanne — a village girl who is clearly more than she appears. Saori Ohnishi and Ryota Osaka head the voice cast. The series earns its premise: stitching historical battles into a fantasy framework is a gamble, and the show plays it straight enough that it mostly pays off. Stream the series online on iFILM.
