* Harvar's moments of [[TheCombatPragmatist combat pragmatism]] in the Baba Yaga arc. He gets rid of the Artifact soldier distracting Thunder and Fire by slicing it in two (to their distress, they ''are'' little kids). He solves the threat of a still-brainwashed Jackie by knocking her out. His earlier stabbing of Kim to protect Ox is less-than awesome due to its brutality, but it showed a [[CombatPragmatist kind of sense]]. Plus, his all-round stoicism averts the usual PersonalityPowers of one with ShockAndAwe abilities.

* "We were reckless". There's something awesome about the moment when, after opening episodes of crazy action and general light-hearted shounen-ness, Maka and Soul find themselves with no way out of the cathedral, or away from Crona (who kept ''telling'' them they were trapped) and just ''how'' far out of their depth they are. They didn't know what they were up against, and realising - along with the whole of Crona's debut - was the first indication of how the author [[InTheMouthOfMadness likes]] [[CrazyAwesome to]] [[PrimalFear play]].

* Maka and Soul perform a double-whammy of awesome in chapter 59 [[spoiler: As Arachane spreads her insanity wavelength across the battlefield Soul figures out how to use her [[{{hoist by his own petard}} own trick]] against her by using her network of webs to deliver Maka's anti-demon wavelength to the fighters and Arachane forcing her to return to a physical body. Maka finishes the onslaught of awesome by resonating with Soul, saying her classic line: "I'll take your soul", while changing into a dress actually made of ''black blood'', which adds to her defense, and is also the one she wore when she entered the Little Devil's Musical Room inside Soul's... [[{{department of redundancy department}} Soul]]. Finally, in the next chapter, when Arachne shouts that Maka is stupid for thinking courage alone will give her enough power to defeat her, Maka simply says "I'm stronger than you. ''Take that''." and proceeds to ''cut her in half'', thus owning a witch's soul]]

* I'm surprised his victory in his debut episode wasn't mentioned here yet! He completes his mission to destroy the cursed soul of a witch and kill a mummy who absorbed her by blasting it point blank with BOTH his pistols in about a hundred shots, which eventually demolishes the entire pyramid... all because the mummy wasn't at all symmetrical!
** And this is AFTER he spent a few minutes letting it impale him multiple times and beat on him with a giant hammer, simply because it WAS symmetrical before it showed its real face.
* Most recent one was [[spoiler: when he was getting owned by Mosquito's revitalized form, only to suddenly awaken to an inner power thanks to Brew. He gets up and looks over at his currently missing arm. Suddenly, the arm starts ''reattaching itself'', and then Kidd starts fighting on par with Mosquito. Not only that, but one of his white hairlines becomes symmetrical, revealing that his obsession with symmetry is actually plot-relevant.]]

He solves the threat of a still-brainwashed Jackie by knocking her out. His earlier stabbing of Kim to protect Ox is less-than awesome due to its brutality, but it showed a [[CombatPragmatist kind of sense]]. Plus, his all-round stoicism averts the usual Personality Powers of one with Shock and Awe abilities.
** What makes all this better is that his personality was firmly established in the same chapter he stabbed Kim. The fact he was able to overpower and actually stab a meister wielding a weapon, while he was just a weapon, actually makes that moment pretty awesome.
