* Cole trying to reach an Org's heart and make peace with it. [[AlwaysChaoticEvil Of course it doesn't work,]] but it's really refreshing to see a Power Rangers/Super Sentai hero actually trying to ''talk'' to a monster instead of [[WhatMeasureIsANonHuman just jumping right to "blow it to bits."]]

[[AlwaysChaoticEvil Of course it doesn't work,]] but it's really refreshing to see a Power Rangers/Super Sentai hero actually trying to ''talk'' to a monster instead of [[WhatMeasureIsANonHuman just jumping right to "blow it to bits."]] And to make it HeartwarmingInHindsight, he would eventually find Orgs who make peace with humanity, namely Jindrax and Toxica; and unknown to him, Zen-Aku.
* Though the final episode is a big tearjerker due to it being the final goodbye of the Rangers it nonetheless presents many heartwarming moments to end the series on a positive note:
** Cole is fully able to make peace with his parents' death and moves on with his life, while also forgiving Adler despite all the harm he caused to him and others; while Adler is an irredeemable monster who proved himself to be beyond saving to the bitter end, Cole still finds it in his heart to be the bigger man of the two and bury the hatchet while wishing for him to find peace. After he's done with his closure he moves on to help animals all over the world, starting with a dog that he befriended.
** Taylor returns to the air force and resumes her duties on the field, happy to see the friends she left behind for over a year again. And when she soars the skies in her jets she gets visited by her partner the [=EagleZord=] who flies alongside her.
** Max and Danny keep their promise to travel together and send postcards to the others depicting their adventures around the world, happy to keep their friendship alive in spite of parting ways with the rest of the team.
** Merrick has gone on his own to seek redemption for his acts as Zen-Aku by WalkingTheEarth all alone... Or at least he would've until an old friend of his, [[HeelFaceTurn Zen-Aku]], shows up to accompany him; though there's an ambiguity on whether Zen-Aku is now a spirit or somehow revived his lack of malice in wanting to accompany Merrick as partners and friends makes it clear he's had a genuine change of heart; and Merrick no longer rejects him nor seeks to keep him away seeing that both are "lone wolves seeking redemption".
** Finally, Alyssa became a teacher and she turns out to have been narrating the adventures of the Wild Force team to her students, after she finishes the story her students ask what happened to Alyssa, with her relating that she managed to finish college and become a teacher (though not revealing her identity); then her students doubt if she's telling the truth or made the story up, with a smile she asks them to think about it before looking fondly at a photograph of her team, ending the series there.

* When the rangers [[spoiler: break the curse of Zen-Aku]] on Merrick, Princess Shayla is shown secretly searching for him. The relieved look on her face when she finds him is palpable, and she briefly allows herself to cradle his unconscious form for a moment before leaving so the other rangers can confront him. It's quite possibly one of the most loving, tender moments ever shown in the franchise.

* When his best friend died in battle, he fell into a deep depression and lost faith in his comrades. She came to him in a vision, and after going against his worst enemies, he found a way to bring her back from the dead, taking her into his arms in joy. Sounds like perfectly flowery hero stuff, right? This is the ''villain's'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxi3oj41n5c&feature=feedlik subplot.]]

** A lot of Jindrax and Toxica's scenes are really sweet, really. Jindrax protects Toxica from the higher-up Orgs (when he can), and Toxica cheers up Jindrax when he starts getting down on himself. As mentioned before, this is all normal stuff for the Power Rangers. Seeing it happen with the villains is just... super sweet!
