* When Kycilia reveals to Char she knows his true identity, she notes how she used to play with him when he was little. The idea of an 8 year old Kycilia playing with a 4 year old Char is something that's jarringly cute to think about.

* In the English dub of the movie trilogy, [[spoiler: Tem Ray, seeing Gundam and White Base leave Side 6 victorious, runs outside cheering the Federation and Amuro, in that order. While it leads to a TearJerker, as Tem slips down a flight of stairs and dies from his injuries, it's touching to know an otherwise distant JerkAss loves his son.]]

* Crowley Hamon is full of this in 'Sorrow and Hatred'. [[spoiler: After losing her boyfriend, Ramba Ral, she insists on carrying out his mission despite only having a battered Zaku, half of the Gallop and four Magella Top fighters. If that wasn't enough, she gives all of the remaining soldiers an out claiming that Ramba Ral wouldn't blame them and neither would she. When all of the soldiers decide to stay, she goes to each and every one of them thanking them for their hard work and also appears to be on a FirstNameBasis with some of them. And in a moment of awesome she launches on of the most successful attacks against White Base, [[SpannerInTheWorks possibly being the reason why M'Quve was so successful in his attack the next episode]] and she does this all for Ramba Ral. She doesn't even seem to bare any ill-will towards Amuro]].

* Denim's reaction [[spoiler: to Gene's death most definitely counts. To truly understand, Denim has been spending the majority of the episode trying to get Gene under control and repeatedly telling him, they are simply there to perform reconnaissance. Even after seeing the power of the RX-78-2 Gundam, he simply tries to convince Gene that they should retreat having gotten what they came for. Unfortunately Gene doesn't heed his warning and gets [[CurbStompBattle curbstomped]] and having his Zaku effortlessly sliced in half. This results in an explosion large enough to destroy a portion of the space station and the Gundam that was closest [[MadeOfIron isn't even scratched]]. You'd expect with the demonstration of the RX-78-2 Gundam combined with Denim's already hesitant nature to confront the Gundam, Denim would simply retreat to deliver what information he has but Gene's death causes him t forget all of that in a [[SenselessSacrifice vein attempt]] at avenging his fallen comrad]]. Also doubles as Tearjerker.
