--> '''Renton:''' I didn't come back. I'm not interested one bit in becoming a crew member here on the Gekko again. I'm not even here because I think that, I might benefit. I came for Eureka, I CAME HERE JUST TO SEE EUREKA!!!

** Speaking of Holland, he gets another one very early in the series. When a couple of punks assault Talho in "Vivid Bit", Holland pulls one of them off of her by grabbing him ''by the nose.'' When another thug tries to crush Holland and Talho with the foot of his pimped-out mech (and ''does'' crush the ring he just bought for her), Holland retaliates by ''[[ColossusClimb running up the mech's arm]],'' throwing the manual release for the cockpit, and then beating the crap out of the punk when the hatch opens.

''EurekaSeven'' is chock full of AwesomeMoments.

* Prior to that, [[spoiler:the ''Gekko'' dive-bombing the ''Ginga'']] with heroic music blaring in the background. That was the most kick-ass entrance ever.
* Dewey's moment occurs in the same episode, and firmly establishes him as a MagnificentBastard. [[spoiler:Magnificent enough to have his potential victory be ''his suicide''.]]
* And Eureka has hers in [[spoiler:"Morning Glory", flying alone on a refboard towards the Beams and a vast fleet of Federal aerocarriers for Renton's sake.]]

*** Anemone's (or rather, her robot's) dramatic HeelFaceTurn in episode 49: just when it seems like everything's over, The END suddenly turns white and begins moving on its own, [[HeroicSacrifice shields]] Dominic and Anemone from a deadly blast, and basically redeems every evil deed it performed throughout the whole series over the course of a couple of minutes.
*** Dominic [[spoiler: freefalling out of the sky to try to save Anemone, clinging to a piece of wreckage and ''roaring'' her name at the top of his lungs.]] Weird for a CMOA since he's essentially helpless - yet still utterly dead-set on his goal.

** Speaking of Holland, he gets another one very early in the series. When a couple of thugs try to rape Talho, Holland pulls one of them off of her by grabbing him ''by the nose.'' When another thug tries to crush Holland and Talho with the foot of his pimped-out mech, Holland beats the guy up. He does so by ''[[ColossusClimb running up the mech's arm]],'' throwing the manual release for the cockpit, and then beating the ''crap'' out of the punk when the hatch opens.
** Axel Thurston proves to be a BadassGrandpa of the highest order when he successfully ''rams an armored transport carrier with a forklift'', blows his workshop up to slow down the military, then does a balls to the walls dash for a cliff so he can send the customized LFO board for Renton's mecha to him without panicking once.
** During the penultimate episode, Holland and Dewey are fighting on the bridge of the ''Ginga'', and it looks like Dewey is about to kill Holland, until he looks out the window and gets a wonderful OhCrap face as Talho and Moondoggie stab the bridge of '''their''' ship '''through''' the bridge of the ''Ginga'', sending Dewey flying across the room.
