** It's a little hard to see, but Shuuya is holding Kawada's hand while he dies.
* Kawada saving and taking Shuuya and Noriko under his protection is heartwarming in general, the pair are an IdiotHero and TheLoad for most of the story. It benefits him in no way, and can actually hinder Kawada's plans and own survival to continue protecting them. But Kawada does all the same. It goes without saying, the only reason they're alive is because of him.
** It is especially heartwarming when you consider Shuuya's earlier negative thoughts on Kawada, mainly that he was probably a dangerous thug who'd jump at the chance to play the game and kill people.
** This is doubly so in the film, where Kawada only really met Shuya and Norika after shaving them from another student. He tries to get the pair to come with him but, unlike the novel and manga, Shuya rejects and insults Kawada, berating him for being a, as he sees it, heartless murder. Despite this, Kawada still shelters the pair when they show up at the clinic, treating Noriko's injuries and feeding them both.

* Doubles as a {{Tearjerker}}: In the manga, after the lighthouse massacre, Shuuya arranges all the girls' bodies so they are [[TogetherInDeath holding hands]] and revisits the good memories he had of them. The manga has a particularly powerful shot, with Shuuya kneeling next to their bodies and [[TheDeterminator vowing to continue on.]]

* There's a flashback scene in the manga where Shinji is visiting Shuuya and Yoshitoki at the orphanage and is on the floor playing with some of the younger kids. Doubly heartwarming when you remember that in an earlier panel, Yoshitoki was embarrassed to admit he lived in an orphanage.

* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: Takako Chigusa's death scene, in Hiroki's arms. Despite having brutally murdered a guy moments beforehand (admittedly, in self defence), she's the object of nothing but sympathy from the audience in her final moments as she begs God for just a few more moments in the world with her best friend and true love. In the manga, it's especially heartbreaking since she has flashbacks from the time when she and Hiroki were kids together.
