** The talk between Zero and Iris after the latter receives a new power core is both heartwarming and tearjerking. [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone Both Zero and Iris were feeling worse than ever because of their fight.]] They feel in so much pain.

* All viral Maverick. Viral Mavericks do come as [[JerkAss Jerkasses]], but they actually are good persons, whether they were [[NiceGuy Nice Guys]] in the games or they are [[AdaptationalNiceGuy Adaptational Nice Guys]]; they're just BrainwashedAndCrazy because of the virus. Even [[spoiler: Sigma]] is under this.

* The relationship between Cadis and Tripwire/[[spoiler: Wire Sponge]]. When X first met Cadis, she was claiming she was a Maverick for no reason other than the fact her friends have died. She makes new friends among the Maverick Hunters, including Tripwire, who actually is [[spoiler: the one who killed her friends]].

** The talk between Tripwire and Cadis after [[spoiler: Double]] nearly kills the latter qualifies as such, while also being a [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments Heartwarming Moment]]. Since the entire medbay was filled with cyborgs, Tripwire was forced to reveal that he actually is [[spoiler: Wire Sponge]]. Cadis is, thankfully, very understanding, allowing Tripwire to finally break out of his HeroicBSOD.
* The life story of Depthcharge/[[spoiler: Launch Octopus]]. Only one human liked him. An old man, who was working past retirement to support his granddaughter, Jessica. Said man died before [[spoiler:Launch Octopus]] went Maverick, and between the man's death and [[spoiler:Launch Octopus]] going Maverick, [[spoiler: Launch Octopus]] used a fake identity to help Jessica. This mostly heartwarming and is only tearjerking because no other human saw how kind [[spoiler: Launch Octopus]] truly is.

** FridgeHorror: When you consider Iris was created by GATE, whose creations were the victims of conspiracy, Iris becomes even more tragic: now that Iris is SparedByAdaptation, conspiratorial scientist would try to use the fight between Zero and Iris as an excuse to kill Iris. But the only way to do it is finding an excuse to label the ''Maverick Hunters'' as Mavericks, as Zero wouldn't let anyone hurt Iris, and the Hunters are supportive of Zero, who is the first Maverick to pull a HeelFaceTurn. It's even worse considering the fact there actually exist people that hate Iris just because she fought Zero.

* Iris' IRIS, full stop.
** First, she nearly dies, which causes Zero to suffer a HeroicBSOD. This is similar to the game... except that in the game Iris is KilledOffForReal. [[SparedByAdaptation Thankfully, X connects Iris to Zero's power core, saving her.]]

entire life.battle between Zero and Iris. Cyrex did a great job showing how much pain was Zero going through in the battle.

* Alia after she's rescued by X from Chill Penguin. She blamed herself for her unit's death.

* All viral Maverick. Viral Mavericks do come as [[JerkAss Jerkasses]], but they actually are good persons; they're just BrainwashedAndCrazy because of the virus. Even [[spoiler: Sigma]] is under this.
* Zero's death in Rise of Sigma.

Even [[spoiler: Sigma]] is under this.
* Zero's death in Rise of Sigma. It's mostly as sad as it's game variation. However, unlike the game variation, this one crosses with NightmareFuel, as X goes utterly insane and kills Vile.
* After the Hunters arrest Bit, Byte and Vile, they refuse to become good. This obviously is sad for X, who believes there is good in everyone, [[LikeFatherLikeSon just like his creator, Dr. Light]].
* Repliforce. They were meant to fight for humanity, but because of the virus' manipulations, humanity turned against them. Just like the viral Mavericks, they either were [[NiceGuy Nice Guys]] in the games or [[AdaptationalNiceGuy Adaptational Nice Guys]]. What makes it more tearjerking is that General [[DefiedTrope defies]] the SparedByAdaptation trope.
