History Heartwarming / BlueExorcist

** Related to that, right after that big emotional climax between the brothers, they wake up to all of their friends sans Shiemi cooking for them. Yukio obviously feels out of place and seems to be having a panic attack when Suguro, who was threatened by Yukio at gunpoint, calls his name and promptly decides to call the twins by their first names, finally breaking down the teacher-student barrier in their friendgroup. [[CryCute Yukio is so touched by the fact that they forgive him despite everything that he starts crying.]]

* Episode 2: Fujimoto's FamousLastWords: "He's ''my'' son."

* In 117 Shiro and Yuri run away together, and Shiro tells her he wants to be a family with her and the twins.

* Episode 6, despite being a {{filler}} episode, has Rin be a SupremeChef and form an OddFriendship with Ukobach, even pulling an IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight while [[spoiler: reminiscing over the fact that he'd honed his skills because his father had encouraged him to do so]].

** After things are resolved between them, Rin has a {{flashback}} to his RageBreakingPoint as a child, when he hospitalized a classmate for calling him a demon. Shiro is patient and understanding even while telling Rin that what he did was wrong. Rin finally calms down once Shiro gives him a CooldownHug, but only after striking him ''once'', having a MyGodWhatHaveIDone moment as a result. [[spoiler: Even better as Shiro was deliberately overselling how much the blow hurt, to better reinforce the lesson for Rin - only to subvert it ''immediately'' after the exchange below, as Rin's blow broke some of his ribs]].
--->'''Shiro''': Listen, Rin, if you don't change your ways, you're gonna find yourself alone someday. Instead of [[AntiChrist using your powers to hurt others]], you should be [[AntiAntiChrist using it to]] ''[[AntiAntiChrist help]]'' them. I want you to have a bunch of friends, I want you to grow up to be a cool guy, the one the girls go crazy for.\\
'''Young!Rin''': What're you talking about? How am I ever gonna be someone like that?\\
'''Shiro''': [[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre You try]]. [[TheDeterminator If you work hard]] [[AllLovingHero and are nice to people]], then before you know it you'll ''be'' that cool guy with all the friends.

* Fujimoto's contingency should he die and Kuro finds out - [[spoiler: the wine they became friends over years ago.]]
-->'''Yukio''': I just realized, there's absolutely no way dad would want to kill Kuro.

* Chapter 50: Rin's effective though unorthodox way of getting Bon back into shape [[spoiler: after TheReveal of Shima being TheMole]]. It's an effective AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther moment.
