History Awesome / BravelyDefault

*** [[http://youtu.be/_jetf9dzSIo?t=10m49s Text does not do the scene justice.]] It's like [[Manga/RosarioToVampire Kahlua Shuzen]] took a HeelFaceTurn and it exploded.

* In the True Ending, when you fight Ouroboros, he begins destroying alternate Luxendarcs to replenish his power, and threatens to destroy more worlds if the protagonists continue to fight him. They're about to give into despair when each the Heroes of Light in each of the THOUSANDS of linked worlds fight back against Ouroboros' planet eating magic, telling the protagonists not to give up. Cue Agnes striking back against Ouroboros with all the power in her pendant, shattering his horn and Ouroboros [[VillainousBreakdown losing his mind with rage.]]

* Khamer, the {{Jerkass}} king of Ancheim, finally getting the HumiliationConga he deserves once Agnès returns from the Wind Temple. It gets better if you do the sidequests and find out [[spoiler: ''he'' was behind the water pricing scheme all along, and you finally get to give him a well-deserved asskicking.]]
** Khamer also gets to GIVE an awesome moment. [[spoiler: In the final world, Braev sends out a call to all the asterisk holders that he wants a showdown with the vestal, Edea, and their friends in Eternia, and that the jobmasters need to get over there. You'd expect Khamer to be hesitant, as he has been all about progressing the betterment of Ancheim through manual labor throughout the entire game, and Profiteur makes his business there. Instead, Khamer makes it clear he fully supports Eternia and plans to get over there with Jackal, Khint, and Profituer in tow. That's not the awesome part. The awesome part is when Profituer makes it clear he has no intention of going, and Khamer has Khint read a royal draft: Khamer will freeze Profiteur's assets if he does not cooperate. While he may have been a {{Jerkass}}, his loyalty to Eternia's cause was genuine, and he was willing to go out of his way to make damn sure Profiteur had no choice but to go with them. Even better, when Braev sets up his gauntlet, Khamer is put in the Final Sentinels, with the Grand Marshal himself... and he's the heavy hitter of the group. And Profiteur is in the Vanguard with Jackal.]]
* The Red Mage sidequest is one for Ringabel. [[spoiler:When Edea doesn't scream for help as [=DeRosa=] takes her to his lair, Ringabel was the first to go off and rescue her. He also calls [=DeRosa=] out when he said women were only tools to be used for his gain. Made more powerful in that [=DeRosa=] is practically Ringabel's EvilCounterpart. He may be a HandsomeLech, but even he's ''disgusted'' by borderline-rapist [=DeRosa=].]]

* How you get your proper GlobalAirship. Alternis destroys the PowerCrystal of your first one, preventing it from flying. And even if it could, it wouldn't have been able to get over the mountains surrounding Eternia anyway. So you need to find a new one. After a series of seemingly unrelated events, you eventually find out that [[spoiler: the Grandship can fly.]] Yes, the [[spoiler: ''giant floating city'']] is, in fact, your new GlobalAirship. The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=invo-XZuicc music]] that plays when flying really hammers this home. What player didn't let out a BigYes the first time they heard that?
* Assuming you do Qada's sidequest before [[spoiler:Kamiizumi's]], [[spoiler: Kamiizumi]] gets fed up with [[spoiler: [[MadScientist Qada's]]]] boasts about his superiority, and [[TalkToTheFist shuts him up.]]
-->'''[[spoiler: Qada:]]''' And... and then... the world shall be--\\

'''[[spoiler: Qada:]]''' ...mine...\\
'''[[spoiler: Kamiizumi:]]''' [[BondOneLiner Not the world of the living.]]
* Agnès [[spoiler: helping save the others and Egil on the way to the Fire Temple. Leading to the use of her {{Catchphrase}} in an unexpectedly badass way.]]
** And then in one of the final battles with [[spoiler: Airy]] her catchphrase gets ''another'' epic reprise, which simultaneously makes her the ''only'' party member whose dialogue in that fight has a solid comeback against the monster:
--->'''Agnés:''' ''[[spoiler: We first met on that precipice overlooking the Great Chasm. You had come forth from the chasm's depths. But you had only just slain us! OUR BLOOD HAD YET TO DRY!'']]\\
'''[[spoiler: Airy]]''': ''[[spoiler: Indeed. You have served me well. Now, die a bitter death, knowing you served your enemy!]]''\\

---> '''Braev''': You shall not pass.

** Another subtle one, for The Jackal. Usually, when you fight him, you fight in the base where the thieves hang out. In the fourth world however, when you go to fight [[spoiler: Praline, the battle goes as it usually does... until a turn after you kill her bodyguards while her HP is below a certain threshold, where Jackal jumps in out of NOWHERE to fight by her side. Note that Asterisk barriers appear to be designed with the intentions that no one outside can get in, and no one inside can get out. That isn't the awesome part. The awesome part is how he proceeds to somehow get to Ancheim, which could literally be impossible if the Water Crystal isn't active. THEN, he fights you again. In the past, he's been one of the few who always gets killed or is at least brought to the brink. In the fourth world, though, not only does he survive fighting you twice, he ends up doing it even when Khamer dies in his first fight in world four. Rather impressive.]]
* In the [[spoiler:True Ending, when you fight Ouroboros, he begins destroying alternate Luxendarcs to replenish his power, and threatens to destroy more worlds if the protagonists continue to fight him. They're about to give into despair when each the Heroes of Light in each of the THOUSANDS of linked worlds fight back against Ouroboros' planet eating magic, telling the protagonists not to give up. Cue Agnes striking back against Ouroboros with all the power in her pendant, shattering his horn and Ouroboros [[VillainousBreakdown losing his mind with rage.]]]]
** [[spoiler:Bonus points if you haven't made any friends along the way, since it means the four worlds shown to accompany you are the four AI-bots that've been with you since early on.]]
* Eternian Central Command is one in gameplay terms [[spoiler:during chapter 8. The Eternian asterisk holders join forces to give you their best. They band together in groups of four (three for the first team) so that their respective jobs mesh such that you'll have your ass handed to you if you don't bring your A-Game. And then, when you finally win, Braev simply congratulates you and challenges you to come again when you feel you need your resolve renewed.]]
* In the [[spoiler:True Ending, Ouroboros's consistent regeneration is posing a problem for the heroes [[GameplayAndStoryIntegration and the player]] - and then Lord [=DeRosso=] shows up right the hell out of nowhere. He tells the heroes he's going to sacrifice himself to stop it, gives each of them the advice they need to get going, then takes a battle stance... and then stops himself to deliver a triple-duty BadassBoast[=/=]DealWithTheDevil[=/=]StableTimeLoop.]]
-->[[spoiler: '''[=DeRosso=]:''' Ah, yes, I nearly forgot. ''Accept me, and I shall grant life everlasting. Though it shall be filled with grief, thou shalt have all eternity to wreak vengeance upon thine enemies.'']]
* [[spoiler: Killing Victoria for the first time can count as this, bonus points if Agnes herself dealt the killing blow. Killing the psycho-bitch that murdered your only friend ForTheEvulz is pretty satisfying.]]

* In the GoldenEnding, Alternis Dim, [[spoiler:implied to be our Ringabel]], is somehow sent back in time to [[spoiler:his own world]] to fight [[spoiler:Larval Airy and stop her from killing Edea again]].
-->'''Edea''': Alternis! What are you-\\
'''Alternis''': I'm here to save you! [[MyGreatestSecondChance I will not fail this time!]] [[MyNameIsInigoMontoya I am Dark Knight Alternis Dim!]] [[BadassBoast The grand marshal has placed the future in my hands!]]
* Lester [=DeRosso=]'s account of his battles with [[spoiler:Sage Yulyana]] many years ago mentions terraforming the landscapes of Luxendarc and shaking the very world itself. While it isn't experienced, his story is vivid and it sounds like a truly epic struggle went down.

-->'''[[spoiler: Qada]]''' And... and then... the world shall be--\\

'''Alternis''': I'm here to save you! [[MyGreatestSecondChance I will not fail this time!]] [[BadassBoast I am dark knight Alternis Dim! The grand marshal has placed the future in my hands!]]

-->'''[[spoiler: Qada]]''' And... and then... the world shall be--
-->[[KilledMidSentence *eviscerated*]]
-->'''[[spoiler: Qada:]]''' ...mine...
-->'''[[spoiler: Kamiizumi:]]''' [[BondOneLiner Not the world of the living.]]

--> '''Agnés:''' ''[[spoiler: We first met on that precipice overlooking the Great Chasm. You had come forth from the chasm's depths. But you had only just slain us! OUR BLOOD HAD YET TO DRY!'']]
--> '''[[spoiler: Airy]]''': ''[[spoiler: Indeed. You have served me well. Now, die a bitter death, knowing you served your enemy!]]''
--> '''Agnés:''' ([[BerserkerTears stifles a massive, furious sob]]) ''...UNACCEPTABLE!!''

-->'''Edea''': Alternis! What are you-
-->'''Alternis''': I'm here to save you! [[MyGreatestSecondChance I will not fail this time!]] [[BadassBoast I am dark knight Alternis Dim! The grand marshal has placed the future in my hands!]]

* Agnès [[spoiler: helping save the others and Egil on the way to the Fire Temple. Leading to the use of her {{Catchphrase}} in an unexpectedly {{Badass}} way.]]

---> '''Braev''': [[YouShallNotPass YOU]] [[{{Determinator}} SHALL NOT]] [[{{Badass}} PASS!]]

-->'''Alternis''': I'm here to save you! [[MyGreatestSecondChance I will not fail this time!]] [[BadassBoast I am dark knight Alternis Dim! The grand marshal has placed the future in my hands!]]

** And then in one of the final battles with [[spoiler: Airy]] her catchphrase gets ''another'' epic reprise:

-->'''Ringabel''': A man who would call women his tools ''is no man''! My friends will suffer no further insults!
