As is the case with all pages detailing Heartwarming Moments, Spoilers Off
- During Some Assembly Required, when Allura calls out the Paladins on how they handled the Gladiator, Kallen makes a point of standing up for Lelouch, pointing out how Allura didn't even give him a weapon, yet is still expecting him to fight like the rest of them.
- Chapter 10 has Lelouch reveal himself as both a Britannian prince and Zero. While Suzaku has some trouble accepting, he and everyone else quickly support Lelouch in his rebellion against Britannia. This also leads Kallen to explain her own reasons for fighting against Britannia.
- During Across The Universe, Kallen and Lelouch's bonding moment while stranded on a random planet. In particular, Kallen doesn't even hesitate to make a contract with C.C. on the off chance that it might help Lelouch.
- In Chapter 25, after The Reveal that Charles has found Nunnally and is using her to try and force Voltron to surrender, the rest of the Paladins are immediately willing to back up Lelouch in a mission to save her.
- Furthermore, Lelouch reveals his past to the Black Knights. All of them choose to stick with him.
- Chapter 26 has a few:
- Lelouch's reunion with Nunnally.
- In particular, just before the reunion, Lelouch is worried that Nunnally will hate him for leaving her. Sayoko assures him that his sister will love him no matter what happens.
- During the confrontation between Shirley and Viletta, the latter gets a surprisingly humanizing moment - when she assumes that Zero brainwashed Shirley (because why else would a loyal Britannian turn against the Emperor), she is completely willing to ensure that Shirley gets proper mental treatment, should she surrender.
- When things go pear-shaped, Lelouch asks Zenobia to help save himself, Nunnally, and Sayoko. Despite his earlier distrust of her, the Black Lion does not hesitate to save her Paladin.
- Lelouch's reunion with Nunnally.
- Chapter 27 starts with Lelouch saying that, despite what she may think, Nunnally is not nor ever will be a burden to him.
- Chapter 28 is a huge bonding moment for the Paladins and Black Knights, who all reassure each other that they are better people than Mao accused them of being.
- Chapter 29: After a week in a healing pod, Nunnally is finally healed! The sheer joy everyone has is just so sweet, despite the space dust.Rivalz: Any... anyone else got… space dust in their eyes...?
Kallen: Yeah... There... there is a lot of space dust in here...
Coran: It's filthy! - The amnesiac Viletta actually bonds fairly well with Nunnally, who is the one to give her the "Chigusa" alias in this universe when the woman has trouble identifying with her name. It's a shame Mao ruins things.
- Chapter 32: Nunnally reunites with Cornelia. Cornelia turns to mush out of happiness.
- Chapter 34:
- Lelouch allowing Suzaku the surprising honor of retrieving Euphemia from Zenobia. This also leads to the latter's surprise reunion with an ecstatic Nunnally, who even drops her crutches so the half-sisters can share a hug!
- Shirley helping Rax make up with his family.
- Chapter 35:
- Lelouch considers Sayoko a Parental Substitute for him and Nunnally and is very clear that he doesn't want anything happening to her during the test run of the new space Knightmares.
- Princess Cornelia immediately leaped to Suzaku's defence amidst backlash against him from the Britannian forces over him joining the Paladins.
- When Euphemia is shot, Suzaku manages to rush her to a cryopod in time to keep her alive.
- After Rolo shoots Euphemia, he attempts to do the same to Nunnally, but Yoru, who Nunnally piloted during Suzaku's 10-Minute Retirement, and Zenobia, who is piloted by her brother Lelouch, take offense at that and manage to defend her and scare him off.
- Chapter 36:
- Suzaku watching over Euphemia's cryopod.
- The Paladins have a Three Musketeers moment where they all unite their weapons as a symbol of unity. Especially notable, though, is when Lelouch joins in the moment, using his grandmother's knife.
- At the end of the chapter, Lelouch takes a moment to apologize for dragging them into his family problems. The team makes it clear that they don't view their current situation as his fault and that they will always have his back. Lelouch is moved to tears by their support.
- Chapter 37:
- Zenobia speaking to Lelouch in words for the first time when Zarkon has the heroes on the ropes.
- Lelouch charging Zarkon to rescue Cornelia from him.

- Lelouch reconciles with Cornelia.
- When the Paladins meet up with a freshly awoken C.C., Rai reveals he overheard her real name. She initially brushes the matter off, only to start breaking down in tears at how a normal life and loved ones have been denied to her. Shirley doesn't hesitate pulling the immortal into a comforting hug, while the rest of the Paladins and Allura reassure C.C. that they'll be by her side. C.C., now crying tears of happiness, pulls the whole group into a hug.
- Chapter 39:
- The rest of the group offers to go with Lelouch to help him reinforce his connection to Zen, but he politely refuses.
- Chapter 40:
- C.C. bringing the rest of the Paladins, Allura, and Nunnally to reinforce Lelouch in his Battle in the Center of the Mind against Zarkon.
- After Lelouch reveals his suspicions that he's part-Galra, and his worries about being not so different from Zarkon, Allura assures him that while she does see similarities to Zarkon in him, it's the heroic figure Zarkon was before he became a Fallen Hero, and that she also sees some similarities to her father King Alfor. She also notes that she's been working on putting aside her prejudices towards the Galra, reacting a lot better to this than she did with Keith in canon.
