Heartwarming / SD Gundam Force

Go To

  • All the Captain and Shute moments that aren't totally silly qualify. Like in the second episode, when Shute gets Captain to relax for the first time. Which in turn helps the Gundam fully activate the Soul Drive.
    • Especially the bit during the last episode. Where Shute and Captain are watching the sunset. Talking about how much they've changed.
    • In episode 45, Shute and Captain's reunion.
  • From episode 19, Bakunetsumaru and Kujakumaru's final moments. Though of course, that also counts as the series' first major Tear Jerker.
  • Fenn the Ridiculously Cute Critter introduced after the "The Mystery of Lacroa" arc in episode 14. His Heroic Sacrifice to save Zero after he becomes the Feather Dragon is heartwarming to. A dozen or so episodes later and He's Back!.
  • Episode 23, Captain using the Captain System interface. Not, as the Dark Axis would: by controlling the minds of all the mobile citizens. Rather, by instead freeing all those trapped within the cyberspace realm of the "Brain World".
  • Episode 35, when Bakunetsumaru was lost while in Lacroa Kingdom, he had a brief run in with Tallgeese. He showed Tallgeese kindness, explaining to the fallen knight that helping people is what being a warrior is all about. This would prove to save all of their lives later on.
    Tallgeese: Why, are you helping me?
    Bakunetsumaru: It is the way of the Samurai.
    Tallgeese: I see, thank you.
  • All the scenes between Shute and Fake!Rele are adorable.
    • The aftermath is equally touching. After learning the story of the Princess Rose. Rele assumes Shute wants her to turn the Rose back into the Fake!Rele. However, Shute explains what he really wants is the Rose to be planted in the Royal Garden, so she'll never be alone.
  • Episode 41, the Dai-Shogun not only returns in order to save. Zero, Bakunetsumaru, and Genkimaru from the tear in Minov Boundary Sea. He also saves Zapper Zaku, Grappler Gouf, Destroyer Dom and the Zako's from falling into the tear in space as well. Though, it's also because the Dai-Shogun knows what fate has in store for them as well...
    Dai-Shogun: (after saving Zapper's group) This is good. Now these people will also fulfill the missions that await them in the future. I did no more than help them get back on track.
  • When Genkimaru's true identity is revealed in episode 42, he, Zero, and Bakunetsumaru are tossed into Buritenmaru's prison. While discussing how to escape and prove themselves to the lord, Bakunetsumaru explains that he still trusts Genkimaru because he's seen Genkimaru's actions firsthand.
  • Episode 43, Kibaomaru's rather good-natured nonchalance after Princess Rele's interference during the shogi match. Shute is worried her actions cost them a game. But Kibaomaru only laughs off her actions, much to Shute's surprise.
  • Episode 46, after Cobramaru's failure to defeat the Gundam Force. The poor Musha is so ashamed that he considers committing seppuku. Fortunately, Genkimaru stops him... and offers him a rice ball. Telling Cobramaru to eat up and regain his strength, since the two of them are allies now. The young Musha's words seem to genuinely move Cobramaru.
  • The You Are Not Alone speech Captain gives to Shute in episode 51.
  • Genkimaru's speech to Captain.
    Genkimaru: Have a little faith in yourself why don't yeah!
    Captain: I do have faith! I just... I'm just not sure I can do it, alone.
    Genkimaru: What do you mean alone? You're never alone! What about that Soul Drive you're carrying around inside your chest? You're the one who told me that the path you chose was all because of that device, and that it was your connection to Shute.
  • The vision of the future Shute receives where everyone including a non-evil Madnug is just hanging out at Shute's house.
    • What's better is that since Captain knows Madnug's origin, he'll prevent the accident, ensuring Madnug's survival.
