History Heartwarming / DiamondInTheRoughTouhou

* Doubling as a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome, when everyone wants to kill Brolli when it turns out that is what will resolve the incident, [[spoiler:Reimu of all people is the one to tell everyone to stop]], thus proving that even though [[spoiler:Reimu can be a bitch and she may hate Gappies]], [[spoiler:she is still the protector of Gensokyo and its people]].

* Disgusted by the fact [[spoiler:the incident resolvers are gunning down the survivors of the Kappa Valley when they try killing Brolli]], Marisa [[spoiler:[[WouldNotShootACivilian refuses to fight the Kappa]], [[ShootTheDog shoots Alice when her dolls slice through a bunch of Kappa]], and yells, "[[WhatTheHellHero BROLLI]], [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome THIS HAS GONE TOO FAR!]]"]]
* [[DyingMomentOfAwesome Brolli's death]]: To save Gensokyo, Brolli not only [[spoiler:[[HeroicSacrifice heroically sacrifices himself]] to stop Tenshi]], but also does it [[spoiler:to remove himself from Gensokyo completely]] ''and'' does so knowing [[spoiler:[[CessationOfExistence he'll go to Hell when he dies]]]].
--> '''Brolli''': '''[[HeroicResolve NO!!!]]''' If I caused all of this, [[TheAtoner I'm not going to Hell until I end it]]: even if [[spoiler:[[HeroicSacrifice it means my death]]]]! If [[spoiler:[[HeroicSuicide killing myself to stop you]]]] is all I can do to give people hope, SO BE IT!!!

* [[spoiler: Right before the epilouge, Vic gives his classmates an abridged version of the truth: that Arturo, Brolli and Jack all went chasing after a fantasy. After failing to stop the other Gappy Stus from leaving, Vic calmly tells his classmates to forget about the humming and move on with their lives.]]

* The truth behind Tenshi's incident: [[spoiler:she did it to MercyKill Brolli before the rest of Gensokyo could stab him in the back, simultaneously dragging the rest of his enemies across the MoralEventHorizon with her via a ZeroApprovalGambit]]. And the best part? [[spoiler:There's nothing anyone can do to get revenge on Tenshi without blowing their cover.]]
--> '''Tenshi''': [[spoiler:I wanted Brolli to die fighting someone he could hate, not get stabbed in the back by someone he loved...]]
* For all of the dark elements of the ending, [[spoiler:Mokou and Kaguya's survival and gleefully continuing their duels]] gets cheers from the Ustream audience. And despite all of Brolli's flaws, they take a moment to note that he was "[[ThrowTheDogaBone fun to play with.]]"
* Overlapping with TearJerker, [[ItHasBeenAnHonor Velupe and Hydrus]] [[spoiler:hugging before they are [[FateWorseThanDeath crushed for eternity]]]].
* The final scene, if [[BittersweetEnding bittersweet]]: [[spoiler:Shiki decides to let Brolli live since he learned how selfish and villainous he was, so he won't make the same mistakes for his next life.]]
--> '''Brolli''': [[IronicEcho But it's not fair]]! [[spoiler:Why should all of the bad guys get away scot-free?]]
--> '''[[spoiler:Shiki]]''': [[spoiler:Brolli, just as long as [[HeelRealization you are aware that you are a "bad guy,"]] you can start [[TheAtoner taking the steps to becoming good]].]]

--> '''[[spoiler:Shiki]]''': [[spoiler:Brolli, just as long as [[HeelRealization you are aware that you are a "bad guy,"]] you can start [[TheAtoner taking the steps to becoming good]].]]

!!Meta Moments of Heartwarming:
* Despite making a movie to ruthlessly tear down Colonel Diamondback's videos, Spaztique and Colonel Diamondback ended up not just becoming friends, but the two ended up introducing eachother to the rest of the Walfas community, who now have a doujin group together. Furthermore, some of the people who've been watching Diamond In The Rough's previews are now hanging out with the real Diamondback and Spaztique.
* During production of Episode 13, the entire Ustream and [=Raidcall=] audience cheered on [[spoiler:Flandre]] during her battle with the Diamondback beasts.
--> ''[=MindOFCorruption97=] gives [[spoiler:Flandre]] bombs''
--> '''[=DeityDiz93=]''': I so badly want [[spoiler:Flandre]] to win, even though I know [[spoiler:she won't]]...
* The voice chat [[OfficialFanSubmittedContent helped co-op an alternate final shot for the ending]]. Instead of [[spoiler:Brolli just staring into the light, wondering, "Who am I?"]], [[spoiler:Komachi hugs Brolli and tells him, for his bravery to sacrifice himself to save Gensokyo and end the Gappy era, "You are different." The final shots fades to white on Komachi hugging Brolli.]]

* Overlapping with TearJerker, Velupe and Hydrus [[spoiler:hugging before they are [[FateWorseThanDeath crushed for eternity]]]].

* [[spoiler: After the incident ends, Vic gives his classmates an abridged version of the truth: Arturo, Brolli and Jack all went chasing after a fantasy. After failing to stop the other Gappy Stus from leaving, Vic calmly tells the others to forget about the mystery and move on with their lives.

* For all of the dark elements of the ending, [[spoiler:Mokou and Kaguya's survival and gleefully continuing their duels]] gets cheers from the Ustream audience.
