History Heartwarming / LupinIII

* Red Jacket episode 10 [[Recap/LupinIIIS2E10 "Steal the File M123"]] ([=ZenigataCon=]), Lupin [[spoiler:gets a time bomb strapped to his waist]] while attending a party he was invited to (which was obviously a trap) and asks Jigen and Goemon for help, but the two refuse because Lupin ignored their warnings to attend the party to please Fujiko and decide to teach Lupin a lesson by leaving him on his own with this problem. However, later, the gunman and samurai have a change of heart and come to his aid when he gets into trouble with Zenigata in Scotland Yard. While racing to the enemy's home, [[spoiler:the alarm on the bomb goes off, signaling that the belt's about to explode. Lupin tells his partners to get out of the car, not wanting them to die,]] but Jigen and Goemon refuse to abandon him, saying they would rather die with him.

* A scene from ''Da Capo of Love: Fujiko's Unlucky Days'' (''Anime/LupinIIITheColumbusFiles'' in the U.S.). Lupin tries to jog an amnesic Fujiko's memories by trying to jump her, but when he notices the sheer fright on Fujiko's face, he changes his mind and instead [[YouMustBeCold hands her his jacket to keep her comfortable.]]
** The opening of the movie itself is one, as it shows despite all the tricks and backstabbing, Lupin and Fujiko truly do love each other as much as people like them are capable.
* The episode [[Recap/LupinIIIS2E112 "Goemon's Close Call"]] from the second anime series, especially the end, where Lupin and Jigen manage to rescue Goemon from the hands of two assassins, who have spent the episode torturing him in an attempt to get him to tell them Lupin's weakness. Lupin cradling an injured Goemon with a look of absolute fury on his face in particular just shows how far along these two characters have come since the days they were sworn enemies.
* The end of the manga story "The Holmes's Violin", where Lupin burns the magical violin he worked so hard to assemble [[spoiler:just so that Pinocchio can finally [[WhoWantsToLiveForever end his existance]]]]. Yes, ''that'' [[spoiler:[[Literature/TheAdventuresOfPinocchio Pinocchio]]]].
* In the Red Jacket episode "The TwoFaces of Lupin", Lupin believes he is undergoing a Jekyll-Hyde disorder that makes him an evil murderer. He begs Goemon and Jigen to kill him, but they refuse. Fujiko is the only one who believes in his innocence, and stays with him to verify his transformation. [[spoiler: it turns out to be a scam, and Lupin hits back at the perpetrators easily.]]

* During the episode ''"The Flying Zantetsuken"'', Zenigata shows genuine worry over the health of Goemon after arresting him mid-suicide attempt. He even goes out of his way to get Japanese Food delivered to the prison to try and get the suicidal samurai to eat. It doesn't work since Goemon's trying to starve himself over losing his sword, but it's the thought that counts.

** [[spoiler: Fujiko is the only one left to take the submarine, [[HypocriticalHeartwarming complaining that nobody wanted to go with her.]] It's a minor but almost TearJerker moment for Fujiko]].
* Red Jacket episode 9 "Zenigatacon. Steal the File M123," Jigen & Goemon are pissed that Lupin never listens to them about Fujiko's schemes & only comes to them when he needs help (similar to Green Jacket episode 10), but cave in & help him out of the mess he dragged himself into, despite the fact that [[spoiler: Lupin has a time bomb strapped to his waist. When the belt's alarm goes off, Lupin tells them to get out of the car, & that he is going to die, he's going to take Marcel out with him.]] But Jigen & Goemon say they would rather die as a team than abandon him.

** [[spoiler: Fujiko is the only one left to take the submarine, [[HypocriticalHeartwarming complaining that nobody wanted to go with her.]] It's a minor but almost TearJerker moment for Fujiko]].

** During the climax: Rosaria, after learning that [[spoiler:her father Barton had gone corrupt and planned to use his research of Orgone Energy to create a weapon to take over the world instead of finding a cure for the illness that took her mother's life]], is stricken with such shock and revulsion that [[BrokenPedestal she curses the good memories she had of him]] and tries to kill him, but is unsuccessful. Before [[spoiler:[[HulkingOut the Orgone-enhanced Barton]]]] can crush her skull, Lupin makes the save by [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome two-foot kicking ]][[spoiler:[[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome Barton]]]] [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome in the head and into the Orgone reactor]]. Lupin then gives Rosaria [[spoiler:Barton]]'s locket and reminds her that[[spoiler:, even though the person Barton has become is dead to her, the loving father he once was will still live on in her memories, and that there's no harm in holding onto those memories]]. Rosaria opens the locket and sees the photo of her as a child inside and the inscription on the lid that says [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes "My dear daughter, with love..."]].

* When Lupin found himself cursed by Tutankhamen's mask, it fell to Fujiko to shoot him should he lose control before the others found a way to put the mask back and break the curse. She did not take to this role with any amount of zeal, and planned to use a second bullet on herself immediately afterwards, if it came down to it. Bit of a TearJerker as well, but it's further proof of how much she loves the dork.

* In a Blue Jacket episode, Lupin, Jigen, Goemon and Fujiko are trapped in the Brazilian jungle under attack by a Brazilian army, with the only way of escape a submarine that seats only two. [[spoiler: Lupin, Jigen and Goemon sneak off by themselves to let the others take the submarine, reasoning that they can make it out on their own respective skills of sneaking, shooting and swordfighting. They find each other and decide to fight their way out... and make it!]]

** [[spoiler: Fujiko is the only one left to take the submarine, [[HypocriticalHeartwarming complainng that nobody wanted to go with her.]]].
