History Heartwarming / Octodad

** Most heartwarming of all? Octodad is giving up a life he was meant for. In Octodad: Dadliest Catch, we get a segment where you can actually just swim to escape a shark inside an aquarium tank. No difficult controls; it's as normal as walking should be for a human. He could be this graceful. He could just be normal for an octopus, but he chooses to be clumsy and live a much tougher life...Just to be with them.

* The first game has you navigate through a final level filled with lasers to reach Octodad's super secret project...a gift for his wife Scarlet.

** A smaller moment, but after knocking Fujimoto off the ship, Octodad seems to put down a lifeboat, and Scarlett tosses a life preserver at the chef.

* The sheer love of Octodad for his family. Even when he's trying to distract his wife from arguing with him by submerging her with plushies, he's doing it because he doesn't want to leave his family.

* In the first game, Stacy's favorite doll is of an octopus. When her dad asks if he could borrow it, she says that the doll helps her keep the monsters away. Considering how the sequel plays out, it's implied that [[spoiler:since she knew about her father's true identity, she felt safe sleeping with a doll that looked like him.]]
* When Fujimoto [[spoiler:crashes Octodad's visit to the aquarium]], Octodad gets a flashback to the time he first met Scarlet. After defeating the crazed chef, Octodad shares his very first dance.

* Octodad [[spoiler:hugging Fujimoto]] at the end of ''Dadliest Catch'', while stating that he loves all humanity. In blubs.
** Not only [[spoiler: is the fact that he'd forgive the chef for all the trouble he's caused sweet, but it may help Fujimoto recover from his murderous paranoia regarding marine animals trying to take over the world.]]
* Octodad's family's [[spoiler: lack of]] reaction to [[spoiler: finding out he's an octopus. They're a little shocked at first, but go back to treating him like normal almost instantly.]]
