* Bridget's arcade story is full of super sweet and heartwarming moments, as Bridget [[TransTribulations struggles with finding her identity]]. She's even much more hesitant to say "I'm a boy" than in the past, adding that "it's a long story" when Goldlewis asks her about it. But thanks to the help of Goldlewis and Ky, Bridget comes to realize that she is happy being a girl. Ky in particular tells Bridget that she is always welcome to come to him and Dizzy if she ever feels unwelcome from other people. ''Awww!!!''

* Baiken was originally pushed into protecting Delilah by Anji in ''Another Story'', and is partly mystified by his parting line of "Check my mirror someday." Baiken later realizes what he meant by "mirror" when Delialah's emotional breakdown threatens to destroy a large town due to losing control of her powers - ''Delilah herself'' is just like Baiken on wanting revenge against "That Man" (namely, Happy Chaos) for causing the deaths of their loved ones (Baiken lost her family, Bedman was Delilah's older brother) and caring little about their own lives. Baiken's CooldownHug and convincing words is what finally calms Delilah down.

'''Baiken:''' We're going. Together. And we'll stay together. Night and day. We'll eat and we'll laugh together. And our revenge... Let's give it up. Together

** For that matter, in spite of all their aggression and misanthropy, if they beat Kliff in AC+ Arcade Mode their win quote is a meek "Father...I..."

* Ramlethal, while trying to absorb Delilah's out of control powers in ''Another Story'', gives the younger girl a genuine smile through the pain, reassuring her that "It's okay" and Delilah will be fine.

** Even more heartwarming, all the things Baiken promised to do with Delilah to help her overcome her trauma, are the exact same things [[https://old.reddit.com/r/Guiltygear/comments/ugzbul/anji_helped_make_more_than_one_mirror/ Anji has done for Baiken]] over the years to help gradually pull her away from her need for revenge, making Baiken the 'mirror' of Anji as well.

* In the [[https://youtu.be/Yhr9WpjaDzw?t=28 opening movie]], Sol and Aria[=/=]Jack-O' are simply driving down an open stretch of highway, and you can see how relaxed and happy both are.

* Despite Jack-O' having inherited Aria's memories, the parts of her consciousness specific to Aria's identity haven't come back and even by the story's end, they never do. However, that doesn't stop a brought-down-to-mortal Sol from putting everything on the line to save her when she attempts to trade her existence to stop I-No. Even as Jack-O' reminds him that she isn't Aria, Sol simply replies with - "when have I ever called you Aria?", re-confirming his feelings for Jack-O' and his decision to be with her regardless, even if it means risking the world. She may not be the same person he once knew, but Sol loves her all the same.

* Testament's reveal as the fifth DLC character in ''Strive'', also revealed them to be a non-binary character, with a redesign to match that. Normally, these kinds of things tend to be, ahem, ''[[Administrivia/RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgment tricky.]]'' The majority of the Guilty Gear fanbase, however, welcomed Testament and their new identity with open arms, celebrating their excellent appeal to the genderfluid and trans community, alongside the fact that a long-missing character had finally returned to the series.

** In the Drama CD, we learn that Dizzy's wish is to [[IJustWantToHAveFriends have a friend that will accept her despite what she is.]] Later when Jose, Dizzy's only friend, apparently abandoned her, Testament gave the words "I'm with you" and told himself that his new purpose in life is to protect her. This is very heartwarming when you connect it to Testament's story which he narrated earlier where he was a kind person who was turned into a killing machine.

** In ''Accent Core,'' Dizzy and Testament fought over the idea of trusting humans. Realizing that Dizzy is determined to live as a human, he told her never to see him again. Instead of being hurt, Dizzy kindly replied that Testament will one day learn to forgive humans and they will see each other again.

* [[https://twitter.com/Koyasu_Koki/status/1483061579033702402 This]] particular tweet gained a lot of traction within the Japanese FGC overnight. [[https://twitter.com/jiyunaJP/status/1483353603566075907?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw As it turns out]], the tweet was from Kouki Koyasu, son of Zato-1's voice actor Creator/TakehitoKoyasu, who not only mains the character his father voices, but managed to reach the Celestial Floor in Ranked Match, being met with much congratulations from the community.

** Adding on to the flashback, after Ky's defeat by Dizzy, he reminisces on how she reminded him of Sol when she demanded to know why Ky didn't finish her when he had the chance, long before any of the three knowing the exact relationship. Ky brings her to probably her first TearsOfJoy.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrf2ohwR_GE Dizzy's Episode Mode]] sheds more light on her and Ky's relationship. Fans had asked for such things before, and Rev 2 ''did not disappoint''.

** One for the western ''[=+R=]'' player communities such as [[https://www.dustloop.com Dustloop]], various streamers and tournament organizers who managed to keep holding itself together for 8 solid years, long enough to push the drive for Rollback netcode through.

* Ky's [[AmazonChaser literally starry-eyed]] reaction to Dizzy's Instant Kill has a feet here and another on SuwarWiki/FunnyMoments, since it shows that he loves Dizzy with all of his heart - including [[BadassAdorable her immense power]] that caused her so much pain in the last.

** Just before I-No is erased from existence, she finally realizes that the one memory she treasured the most, spending time with Will (alternate timeline version of of Axl), was real all along even after countless timelines resulted in her memories becoming hazy and leaving her jaded to the point that nothing mattered anymore. Through all of her suffering, she never forgot him.
