** Also Meta-heartwarming: WordOfGod confirmed that Maya and Zatz are the previous incarnations of [[WesternAnimation/TheBookOfLife Maria and Manolo]] respectively. [[ReincarnationRomance Their love for each other was so great, it literally transcended lifetimes.]] Doubly so when you recall that Manolo and Maria will eventually go on to have a family of their own, fulfilling the happy ending Maya and Zatz were barred from in life.
** Joaquin being revealed by WordOfGod to be the reincarnation of Acat also adds further heartwarming to things. While Acat ended her life alone and friendless, through her reincarnation as Joaquin, she'll have the chance to reconcile with both Zatz and Maya (as Manolo and Maria) and [[TrueCompanions form a genuine, unbreakable bond]] with both of them.
