* In "The Kongo Bongo Festival of Lights" The Kongs and Kremlings have a holiday truce and even King K. Rool lets his minions go home to their families to have fun.
** Klump has no family to go home to, only a song from his early childhood. Meanwhile, Skurvy laments that there was someone dear to him that he lost long ago. Eventually it is revealed that the two are long lost borhters when they both know the same song.

fun. He waxes about how he's looking forward to playing with his siblings and enjoying their mother's cooking.
** Klump has no family to go home to, only a song from his early childhood. Meanwhile, Skurvy laments that there was someone dear to him that he lost long ago. Eventually it is revealed that the two are long lost borhters brothers when they both know the same song.



** At the end of the episode, Klump agrees to go and live with his brother on the high seas as a pirate. K. Rool comes back and forbids it, and begins verbally sparring with Skurvy over where Klump will go. Klump realizes that K. Rool wants him to stay and is completely touched.



* "A Thin Line Between Love and Ape":
** When Bluster arrives at Cranky's, he reminds him of his longstanding feelings for Candy. Cranky has none of it, reminding him that Candy can't stand him, showing he's looking out for her.
** In a weird way, the fact that King K. Rool is [[ALighterShadeOfBlack only willing to use the love potion to get the coconut]], and ''not'' to force anybody into a non-consensual relationship like Bluster planned for Candy. He may be a villain, but he evidently has ''some'' standards.



* In "Vote for Kong-fidence", Bluster demands a fair election for the position of future ruler of Kongo Bongo Island. Inka Dinka Doo agrees and says everyone is allowed to be a candidate. Unfortunately, that means King K. Rool is a candidate, too. After tricking DK into being a bully so that no one will vote for him, K. Rool is sure to win the election, but he caves into his evil ways, making everyone vote for DK instead. But no one wins since it's a tie and the tie-breaker is Krusha. And who does Krusha vote for? '''Donkey Kong'''. Why? Because DK promised not to hit him during his campaign.

But no one wins since it's a tie and the tie-breaker is Krusha. And who does Krusha vote for? '''Donkey Kong'''. Why? Because DK promised not to hit him during his campaign. It's downplayed since DK only agreed after adding the condition that he'll only avoid hitting him if he surrenders the coconut, but it shows that despite being TheBrute, Krusha's heart is actually in the right place all things considered.


Added DiffLines:

* In "Four Weddings and a Coconut", when K. Rool hears that DK and Candy are getting married, he's actually delighted and is looking forward to attending, albeit as a pampered guest of honor. He's genuinely hurt when he learns he apparently wasn't invited. And the fact that Candy was willing to invite the Kremlings to the wedding shows the Kongs consider the Kremlings [[FriendlyEnemy Friendly Enemies]] at worst.

* When you 102% ''Donkey Kong Country 2'', Cranky swallows his pride and admits he was wrong about Diddy not being cut out to be a game hero. He goes on to say he must take after himself and DK, subtly complimenting both of our favorite apes at once.
** Also the cinematic for the game's 100% ending. Diddy and Dixie watch Crocodile Isle sink into the sea with the rescued DK, who has an arm around his little buddy and is carrying Dixie up on his shoulders. No spoken dialogue is needed to convey how proud he is of the younger kongs.
** The fact that [[http://40.media.tumblr.com/64e41ee355d9d432b43cff4559a782a5/tumblr_nf3vwelXrZ1t1dn5ko1_400.png so much]] [[http://www.mariowiki.com/images/3/35/Group_dkc2_08.png of the]] [[http://41.media.tumblr.com/b9b65df6ae1a63d167e1182534661056/tumblr_nf3vwelXrZ1t1dn5ko10_r1_500.png promotional]] [[http://www.mariowiki.com/images/c/c4/Dkc2vine.jpg artwork]] [[http://36.media.tumblr.com/eea05fc511087c47c65c4c0c49888a0b/tumblr_nf3vwelXrZ1t1dn5ko3_1280.png for the game]] has Diddy and Dixie holding hands throughout their adventure.
* In the manual for ''[=DKC2=]'', Cranky complains that Expresso and Winky didn't reappear because he liked them. [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Of course, he'd never admit it if they were still in the game]].

Added DiffLines:

* In "Baby Kong Blues", K. Rool decides to raise Baby Kong as his son and heir. While obviously completely unqualified to raise a baby, he quickly grows attached to the child, singing him a sweet lullaby about how he's his "wittle prince, [his] wittle son", and how one day when he's grown, he'll take care of his father (K. Rool) when he's old and needs help. It's surprisingly sweet, if still laced with K. Rool's usual megalomania. And at the end of the episode when K. Rool surrenders the baby, when he thinks he hears him in his lair again, K. Rool grows hopeful as he already misses him.

* In "Orangutango", King K. Rool won the titular dance contest and gets to make one wish on the Crystal Coconut. As he does so, Cranky actually comforts DK by telling him that it's not his fault, which is a nice change considering how often the chastises the big ape.
