Heartwarming moments in ''VideoGame/{{Xenosaga}}''.

[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder: Episode I ]]

* In a testament (no pun intended) to how much character development can happen in a short amount of time, immediately after meeting up with Shion on the ''Elsa'', Ziggy is about to introduce himself as Ziggurat-8, but cuts himself off mid-sentence, looks back to MOMO- who nods- and says, "Call me Ziggy."
* From the first game, there is something touching about Margulis' reaction to Cherenkov's death. When he is told that Cherenkov's marker disappeared in an area occupied by Gnosis, Margulis' just ''stares'' at the soldier giving him the information, and Pellegri has to instruct the soldier to finish the rest of the report. Margulis, who had spent the entire game thus far coolly dismissing the deaths of others including those of over a billion people on planet Ariadne, effectively [[VillainousBSOD BSOD's]] over Cherenkov's. It's somewhat [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes endearing.]]

[[folder: Episode II ]]

* During Episode II, after Albedo's been attacked by Patriarch Sergius, Rubedo/Jr.; his brother, rushes over to him as if to make sure he's okay. It just goes to show that even ''if'' they may hate each other, they're still family...

[[folder: Episode III ]]

* The Virgil/Feb plotline in the third game. LoveHurts, and ''how'', but it is also [[LoveRedeems Redeems]]. There had been hints and buildup over the two previous Episodes, and here it delivers in spades. See [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRR49_UFdzI&feature=related here]].
* MOMO meeting her father, Joachim Mizrahi, and learning that he wasn't the MadScientist that people thought he was.
* Series ButtMonkey Allen gets one of these (and a simultaneous SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome): Having had absolutely enough of being the powerless joke that ''everyone'' considered him to be (whether they said it or not), he steps forward to stop a fight between the party and a duo of Shion and Kevin, who was NotQuiteDead and had used Shion's love for him to bait her into betraying the others. Calling Kevin out on his BS, he gets cracked with a blast of energy, and sent flying backwards. He gets back up, walks toward Kevin, finally confesses his feelings for Shion, and gives a speech that seems so cheesy, but coming from this specific character, it works ''perfectly''. KOS-MOS joins the scene after Kevin cracks Allen again, and finally, Shion figures out who ''really'' loves her, and rejoins the team for the battle against Kevin.
* After Shion's passed out from U-DO exposure, [[AloofBigBrother Jin]] comes into see her after she wakes. After a short conversation, Jin finally says that 'as long as you're all right' he won't object to her working so hard, and leaves. Then, you and Shion notice that he's left behind a packet of herbal medicine (as he was a doctor for a while), and Shion smiles as she remarks that he didn't have to do things in such a roundabout way. D'awwwwww...
* During the end:
-->'''Shion''' (hugs KOS-MOS/Awakened Mary): ''"I'm so glad...to have had the chance to meet the real you."''
* The fact that even after [[MindRape mind raping]] her ''twice'', using the TermsOfEndangerment "Ma belle peche" around her and possibly even doing... ''things'' to her, MOMO ''still'' forgives Albedo and tells Rubedo/Jr. to say hello to him for her. D'awwwwwwww!
* Kind of more of a HeartwarmingInHindsight but in another game, ''VideoGame/ProjectXZone'', KOS-MOS (as Mary Magdalene with the blue eyes) tells the party who lives on Earth, "Farewell, dwellers of Lost Jerusalem." She finally found the place.
** Another form of HeartwarmingInHindsight, but also in another game: [[spoiler: [[VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles3FutureRedeemed KOS-MOS]] [[TheStinger made it home]].]]
%%* The Mizrahi family, despite appearances, are capable of great sweetness.
