** It pays off at the end of the game when Zidane bids his farewells to Garnet and the others; where he despite being near him and Garnet in the same spot, gives them space to not interrupt them. It shows how much he has come from the person he was at the beginning of the game.

* There are two small, but incredibly sweet moments between Zidane and Steiner. The first is in Pandemonium during the YouAreNotAlone sequence when he tells Zidane he can’t leave the group behind and says “I have not yet concluded whether or not you are the right man for the princess.” The second happens shortly before the flight into Memoria as Beatrix joins the cutscene battle. Zidane tells Steiner he fell in love with a remarkable woman and all Steiner responds with is “you’re one to talk!” By the end of the game he’s accepted that Zidane and Dagger are in love and gives them his approval. Considering how vehemently opposed he was to Zidane even breathing the same air as the princess, let alone having her accompanying him on a journey, and the fact that he’s one of the only paternal figures Dagger has left...it’s extremely touching.

* After Dagger remembers that [[spoiler: she was born in Madain Sari and is part of the summoner tribe]], her explanation is rather bittersweet, but it becomes more sweet with three simple words from Eiko:
--> '''Eiko''': Dagger! Welcome home!
--> '''Eiko''': Dagger! Welcome home!

* When the characters go save Garnet from execution, they are finally intercepted by the Queen, who orders Beatrix to kill the team. Beatrix has been, for a large part of the game an undefeatable boss, a one-eyed badass who vanquished anyone in her way, obeying her Queen in actions that can legitimately be qualified as genocidal even though she had her doubts. But that one last order tipped the scales, making her raise her sword against her ruler. She then proceed to fight a desperate rear-guard action to cover Garnet and the others as they flee, but she does not do so alone. Alongside her is Freyja, the Lancer whose people Beatrix almost exterminated. Though there is no forgiveness to be found in Freyja, she still puts aside her hatred to help Beatrix do what is right.

* In the last moments of his life, [[spoiler:Kuja creates a path for the party to escape the Iifa Tree and return to the airship. When he says goodbye to Zidane and Zidane takes this as a reason to ''go back,'' Kuja tries to talk him out of it. Filled with regret for only realizing what he could have had after it was too late, Kuja calls himself useless in this world. Zidane tells him "no one's useless."]]
* The bit immediately after that one is also fairly heartwarming, in a weird way. [[spoiler: After Zidane and Kuja's scene ends, we cut back to the outside, where Mikoto, is delivering a bit of a eulogy for Kuja. Because in the end, despite all the horrible things he did, he brought the Genomes hope that they can have a purpose in life beyond being the shells they were designed to be.]]

* There's an optional scene in Disk 3 after Alexandria where you can see Garnet before it's revealed she lost her voice. Although the scene is a TearJerker because Zidane thinks he's offended her when she won't answer him, as soon as he leaves a thought bubble appears over Garnet saying "Zidane...you're so sweet. Thanks."
* Garnet's reunion with Dr Tot and the flashback to her younger self learning about Gaia from him. It appears that it was a genuine friendship rather than just a tutor and student - and Garnet seems overjoyed to see a friendly face.
* Right before the battle with Soul Cage, a quake in the Iifa Tree causes Garnet to fall over while she's separate from the party. Zidane runs all the way back up to where she is just to make sure she's okay. It's clear that this moment in particular - along with Zidane realising how annoying his behavior towards her must have been once he gets a taste of it from Eiko - that show her realising Zidane wasn't just a skirt chaser and genuinely cared for her.
