Heartwarming / Front Mission 5

Go To

  • The entire epilogue of 5 is pretty much made of heartwarming. We watch an aged Walter talks to Lynn's gravestone lovingly, showing that while their relationship had its challenges, they really did care about each other after the hardships they have experienced together.
    • And then a young woman runs up excitedly to greet Walter (whom she refers to as 'father'), telling him she's finished pilot training and is being assigned to his base. We are given a close shot at the young woman's face. She resembles Lynn a lot...
  • Just before the credits, Walter and Glen reconcile in Alaska. After decades of being treated as a puppet by Morgan, Glen finally regains his memories and has a nice, warm exchange with his old childhood friend, before MIDAS vaporizes him. Oh, when the reactor complex begins to fall apart and Walter runs for his life, the ceiling collapses, and a particularly large piece of debris is about to crush Walter... only for Glen's wanzer to save him by suddenly throwing itself between Walter and the debris. A couple of scenes later, having Outrun the Fireball, Walter and Lynn stand outside the complex to watch the aurora created by MIDAS's radiation. As if to top it off, Lynn then muses about how Glen's wanzer can move with its pilot dead, finished with her recognizing that humans are more than mere substances.
