History Heartwarming / TheKindaichiCaseFiles

** Kindaichi and Miyuki have a brief discussion about the case after it ends. As they weight in the available options in the scenario where a girl being pushed away from an over-the-capacity lifeboat to drown in order to save the survivors who were already in said lifeboat drove her lover to a RoaringRampageOfRevenge, they believed that the culprit, had he been there in the lifeboat, would have switched position with the girl in question to let her live even if it meant sacrificing him. Then Miyuki asks Kindaichi what he would do should ''they'' be in such a situation, with Kindaichi responding that he would [[TakeAThirdOption think of a way to save BOTH of them]], much to Miyuki's heartfelt appreciation.

* Yukikage Village Murder Case:
** After the killer of his childhood friend in Yukikake village was arrested, Kindaichi and the remaining member decided to dig time capsule they buried right before Kindaichi's departure. There were lots of things found inside; Tateishi's babseball card, Miyako's panty Kindaichi mistook for Ayaka's, Shimazu's victory ball, Ayaka's tennis ball, Uosumi's casette, Shimazu's photo with Yashiro's writing that stated she would be Shimazu's girlfriend by the time they opened the time capsule, and then deceased Haruna's drawing book filled with the rest's potrait when doing what they like. The gang, filled with feelings of nostalgia, were driven even further by sudden snow sakura which shouldn't have fallen at that time. Made even more heartwarming since it was what Haruna like the most. Kindaichi then remembered his conversation with Haruna as potrait of him watching Haruna painting fell from her sketchbook...

** A very easy-to-miss moment: after Reika is rescued, Keiko brought hand made pollock roe to her, which is later revealed in a different case to be Reika's favorite food. [[spoiler: Even though Reika was separated from her mom at a very young age, her mom remembers.]]

Kindaichi and the others decide to leave him alone, figuring [[spoiler: the person he used to be is completely gone, and after the emotional torment he suffered before his amnesia, it's better to just let him have this new life.]]

** Yurie not giving up on [[spoiler:Naoko]] and continuing to support [[spoiler:her]]--even hiring the best attorneys for [[spoiler:her]] defense, despite knowing that [[spoiler:Naoko]] wanted to have her killed.

** Munakata Satsuki, ever since birth, couldn't see her mother's face because of her mother's disfigured face. Furthermore, she was born in a family with a weird tradition that she must fulfill to keep curse away. It was clear that she was suffering the whole time she enrolled in Fudou High, even so far as turning her cheerful behavior into gloomy one with blank stares ''right after she arrived at her village''. [[spoiler:Later, after TheReveal, it turned out that her family's maid was the killer and [[LukeIAmYourFather was Satsuki's mother all along]]]]. After strings of accidents symbolizing that the curse had been lifted, Satsuki can be seen [[spoiler:tending her sick mother who had no painful memory of what happened since 20 years prior to the case]] with a bright smile. After what she had been through, [[spoiler:staying with her mother smiling despite her mother's limited lifetime (she claimed that her life would end in 6 months)]] is better and happier for her.
