* It's very, very minor and put into a very mean-spirited statement, but after Milo chases down Mr. Harcourt after he's essentially refused his expedition and told him to stay in the boiler room, Milo is driven to threatening to resign. Harcourt then actually stops his car and gives Milo some genuine if harsh advice not to turn out like his grandfather, as it's implied that Thaddeus's insistence on the existence of Atlantis is what drove the other board members to marginalize him. Harcourt does turn out to be wrong, but he didn't have to give Milo that advice and for even admits that Milo has a lot of potential.

* In a meta example, despite the film's polarizing reception, Creator/CreeSummer has said that Kida is her favorite role - and she considers her an official Franchise/DisneyPrincess even if she isn't in the line.
** Cree also said she was amazed that the Disney animators were in the studio sketching her as she recorded her lines - having not been used to that in most of her voice-over work - and that is one of the reasons Kida is her favorite role.

* At the end of ''Milo's Return'', [[spoiler: Queen Kida uses the Spear of Destiny to raise Atlantis to the surface, surprising some fishermen who are quickly amazed at the sight. The last few lines from Whitmore are especially good to hear despite the Team Atlantis series not being picked up and provide a nice finish for the adventures of Milo and Crew]].

* When Kida first meets Milo, he's injured from a recent [[{{Understatement}} misadventure]] with some [[MakesSenseInContext fireflies]]. Without any further prompting, Kida uses her crystal necklace to heal Milo's wound. It's a PetTheDog moment marks the beginning Milo's relationship with Kida, [[BecauseYouWereNiceToMe because she was kind to him]], not just because she's an Atlantean.

* In hindsight, the scene where Kida sneaks into camp counts as this, despite that she was wearing a scary tribal mask at the time. She rummages through Milo's stuff when she finds the photo of him with his grandfather. And she caresses the image so reverently, as though she can already sense its sentimental value.
