* Railgun T, Episode 9: Saten's first meeting with Touma. The latter is a participant in the Borrowed Item Race and much to his misfortune, the item he required is a good luck charm. Being in a city of science, such an item is nearly impossible to find and by coincidence, Saten has one. Though hesitant to lend an important item to a stranger, Saten eventually relents after seeing his perseverance and remembering that he will still earn some points even if he is in last place. In turn, Touma is grateful to Saten for helping him and is careful not to touch the charm with his right hand, not wanting to negate any of its properties. [[spoiler: It is this [[ContrivedCoincidence coincidental meeting]] that eventually leads Touma to get involved with Gensei's plan for Misaka. Without knowing it, [[SpannerInTheWorks Saten]] sows the seeds for Gensei's defeat (even when he has thought of Touma's involvement) and saves the city.]]

* Brief moment of OddFriendship between Mikoto and Saiai in Dream Ranker arc, as [[ACupAngst they bonded over similar insecurity about their size (or lack thereof)]] and formed a temporary alliance to acquire a rare Indian Poker card named "Bust Upper" (which they failed to do). Heartwarming especially near the end of Chapter 79 of the manga, where Mikoto is telling Kuroko a long story about her experience with Saiai, someone she has just met, as if she's her friend (Mind you, Mikoto kept talking about Saiai until 3 o'clock in the morning!). This shows that if it wasn't for the harsh reality of Academy City's dark underbelly, Mikoto would've got one more friend that she can relate to.

* Railgun manga Chapter 97.5 shows Uiharu taking Saten to visit many urban legend spots in Academy City, because Saten looks depressed. Saten then tells Uiharu a story about how her new friend from Dark Side suddenly stops visiting her. Saten then pleadingly asks Uiharu to not suddenly disappear from her life. Uiharu, despite knowing the difficulty to keep a promise about uncertain future, still complies, which brings a heartwarming smile on Saten's face.
