History Heartwarming / HaruhiSuzumiya

** The entire wakeup scene qualifies. Haruhi shows her feelings by turning her normal personality UpToEleven.

* The movie shows that despite Haruhi being a selfish, arrogant and sometimes abusive leader of a group of people who are pissed off at her for various reasons, the world is a better place with her and her godlike power. Because, until Nagato changed reality, there was no flu epidemy, much fewer sick students and even a girl who wanted to date [[TheCasanova Taniguchi]]. Okay, we learn later that the girl in question is [[spoiler:a malicious alien sent to spy on Haruhi]], but all of that still shows how much Haruhi cares for the world around her and wants it to be a little brighter.
* After [[spoiler: fixing the timeline and waking up in the hospital]], Kyon promises Yuki that if the Data Overmind ever tries to punish her for developing emotions, he'll [[spoiler: tell Haruhi everything, ''make'' her believe by telling her [[TrustPassword "I am John Smith" ]], and join the rest of the SOS-Dan in a crusade against the Data Overmind to get Yuki back. By rewriting the universe, if necessary]].

* Haruhi spent three days sleeping [[spoiler: in the hospital, watching over Kyon]]. [[spoiler: And then Kyon gently brushes the hair from her face, traces the outline of her lips and touches the corner of her eye.]]

--->'''Haruhi:''' [[spoiler: Let me know when you're going to wake up BEFORE you wake up! You can't just expect a girl to wake up and be ready like that!]]\\
'''Haruhi:''' [[spoiler: If you think getting hit on the head and not waking up excuses you from your duties, you got another thing coming!]]
** Which is ridiculous even for her. How does Kyon respond to all this? [[spoiler: By ''not'' being snarky despite Haruhi's perfect setup lines. Shows how he feels also.]]
* "Quiz time's over! Time to answer the question! Don't you think that Haruhi, and all the weird things she made happen, were just a ''little'' bit fun? ''Spit it out!''" "[[spoiler:Yeah, of course I do! Of course it was fun! And I loved every ''minute'' of it! Don't go asking me stupid questions that are so... ''OBVIOUS!'']]"

** Once it's all over after a grating [[spoiler: eight]] episodes, Kyon and Koizumi celebrate by having a nice and relaxing game of cards without interruptions, glad to be out of their predicament. Those two needed a breather.

* When Kyon realizes the true meaning of Haruhi's treasure hunt: [[spoiler:a distraction for giving Valentine chocolates]]. He even forgot [[spoiler:the date]] (thus the reader isn't informed) because of having a crazy and tiring week prior so the shock is even greater. So heartwarming in fact that Kyon is almost brought to tears.

* Itsuki promised Kyon that [[spoiler: if he ever has to make a choice between siding with the Organization or the S.O.S. Brigade, he'd choose the [[PowerofFriendship S.O.S. Brigade.]] ]]
* Haruhi doting over [[spoiler:Yuki when she is "sick"]] in the tenth novel. Kyon's narration even sounds warmly affectionate and proud of her genuine concern for a friend.

* Koizumi tells [[spoiler: the older Mikuru]] that the S.O.S. Brigade are a part of him now, and he will never betray them before proceeding [[spoiler:[[LetsGetDangerous kick Fujiwara's ass]] [[BewareTheNiceOnes for trying to kill Haruhi.]] ]]

* When Kyon is bouncing around in time, he ends up in the future, apparently at Haruhi's college. [[spoiler: Haruhi greets him with a warm smile (before she realizes he's from the past), and it's implied that Kyon is going to the same college]]. This is an especially cozy moment (particularly for shippers) when you remember that [[spoiler: at the end of "Wandering Shadow III", Kyon had recounted receiving a book from Nagato about a romance between two high schoolers moving onto college together, making mention of Nagato's known talent for "fortune telling" in the same thoughts.]]
* Kyon's [[spoiler: final conversation with Sasaki]], where, after [[spoiler: Sasaki reveals how [[IJustWantToHaveFriends she's wanted friends all along]], Kyon thinks to himself that he won't see her for a good while after this, but when they do meet again, he'll be sure to greet her with "Yo, old friend." Awwwww!]]
* One of Kyon's lines: [[spoiler: "Nagato, Haruhi, and Asahina-san. Those three are enough to fill me so full of happiness that I think I might just burst." Squee.]]

* When Kyon is bouncing around in time, he ends up in the future, apparently at Haruhi's college. [[spoiler: Haruhi greets him with a warm smile (before she realizes he's from the past), and it's implied that Kyon is going to the same college]].

* When Haruhi opens up to Kyon in the first novel and tells him why she tries so desperately to live an extraordinary life. It's obvious that, at least from her epiphany on, that she didn't have any friends. In the beginning of the novel, she's very hostile to any one who tries to befriend her. For her to open up like that to Kyon is huge.

--->'''Haruhi:''' [[spoiler: Let me know when your going to wake up BEFORE you wake up! You can't just expect a girl to wake up and be ready like that!]]\\

** Which is ridiculous even for her. How does Kyon respond to all this? [[spoiler: By ''not'' being snarky despite Haruhi's perfect setup lines. Shows how he feels also. ]]

* When Kyon is bouncing around in time, he ends up in the future, apparently at Haruhi's college. [[spoiler:It's pretty clear that Kyon is going to the same college, and judging by Haruhi's warm smile (before she realizes he's from the past), they're dating]].

* ''Disappearance'' shows that despite Haruhi being a selfish, arrogant and sometimes abusive leader of a group of people who are pissed off at her for various reasons, the world is a better place with her and her godlike power. Because, until Nagato changed reality, there was no flu epidemy, much fewer sick students and even a girl who wanted to date [[TheCasanova Taniguchi]]. Okay, we learn later that the girl in question is [[spoiler:a malicious alien sent to spy on Haruhi]], but all of that still shows how much Haruhi cares for the world around her and wants it to be a little brighter.

* In ''Disappearance'', after [[spoiler: fixing the timeline and waking up in the hospital]], Kyon promises Yuki that if the Data Overmind ever tries to punish her for developing emotions, he'll [[spoiler: tell Haruhi everything, ''make'' her believe by telling her [[TrustPassword "I am John Smith" ]], and join the rest of the SOS-Dan in a crusade against the Data Overmind to get Yuki back. By rewriting the universe, if necessary]].

** Also from ''Disappearance'', Haruhi spent three days sleeping [[spoiler: in the hospital, watching over Kyon.]]
*** [[spoiler: And then Kyon gently brushes the hair from her face, traces the outline of her lips and touches the corner of her eye.]]
** Then entire wakeup scene in ''Disappearance'' qualifies. Haruhi shows her feelings by turning her normal personality {{UpToEleven}} with lines such as
*** [[spoiler: Let me know when your going to wake up BEFORE you wake up! You can't just expect a girl to wake up and be ready like that!]] and
*** [[spoiler: If you think getting hit on the head and not waking up excuses you from your duties, you got another thing coming!]] which is ridiculous even for her. How does Kyon respond to all this?
*** [[spoiler: by ''not'' being snarky despite Haruhi's perfect setup lines. Shows how he feels also. ]]
** Disappearance ''again''; Yuki is quietly reading in the Library after the credits rolled, she sees two young children doing the same thing she and Kyon did their first time there. Yuki looks at the children, then [[MediumAwareness looks at the audience]] and covers her face with the book she was reading, [[WhenSheSmiles d'aww...]]
** "Quiz time's over! Time to answer the question! Don't you think that Haruhi, and all the weird things she made happen, were just a ''little'' bit fun? ''Spit it out!''" "[[spoiler:Yeah, of course I do! Of course it was fun! And I loved every ''minute'' of it! Don't go asking me stupid questions that are so... ''OBVIOUS!'']]"
* In ''Intrigues'' (Volume 7), when Kyon realizes the true meaning of Haruhi's treasure hunt: [[spoiler:a distraction for giving Valentine chocolates]]. He even forgot [[spoiler:the date]] (thus the reader isn't informed) because of having a crazy and tiring week prior so the shock is even greater. So heartwarming in fact that Kyon is almost brought to tears.
** Mikuru and Yuki's OddFriendship in the same book.
* The conversation between Haruhi and Kyon near the end of "Live Alive".
* In the anime, the later half of episode 12 (The concert) and the end of 14 ("Someday in the Rain").
* In book 9, Itsuki promised Kyon that [[spoiler: if he ever has to make a choice between siding with the Organization or the S.O.S. Brigade, he'd choose the [[PowerofFriendship S.O.S. Brigade.]] ]]
** Again, in Book 11, Koizumi tells [[spoiler: the older Mikuru]] that the S.O.S. Brigade are a part of him now, and he will never betray them before proceeding [[spoiler:[[LetsGetDangerous kick Fujiwara's ass]] [[BewareTheNiceOnes for trying to kill Haruhi.]] ]]
* Also in Book 11, Kyon's thoughts after leaping out of a window to catch a falling Haruhi. As they are falling down (possibly to their deaths) he thinks to himself "at least we go out together." Awwwww.
* Kyon's [[spoiler: final conversation with Sasaki]] in "The Surprise of Haruhi Suzumiya", [[spoiler: where, after Sasaki reveals how [[IJustWantToHaveFriends she's wanted friends all along]], Kyon thinks to himself that he won't see her for a good while after this, but when they do meet again, he'll be sure to greet her with "Yo, old friend." Awwwww!]]
* One of Kyon's lines in the latest novel -- [[spoiler: "Nagato, Haruhi, and Asahina-san. Those three are enough to fill me so full of happiness that I think I might just burst." Squee.]]
* When Haruhi opens up to Kyon in the first novel and tells him why she tries so desperately to live an extraordinary life. It's obvious that, at least from her epiphany on, that she didn't have any friends. In the beginning of the novel, she's very hostile to any one who tries to befriend her. For her to open up like that to Kyon is huge.

* The first episode of "Endless Eight." Before you find out [[GroundhogDayLoop what's actually happening]], it seems like the Brigade hanging out together and having fun like a group of ordinary friends.

* Haruhi doting over [[spoiler:Yuki when she is "sick"]] in the tenth novel. Kyon's narration even sounds warmly affectionate and proud of her genuine concern for a friend.

* ''Disappearance'' shows that despite Haruhi being a selfish, arrogant and sometimes abusive leader of a group of people who are pissed off at her for various reasons, the world is a better place with her and her godlike power. Because, until Nagato changed reality, there was no flu epidemy, much fewer sick students and even a girl who wanted to date that fool Taniguchi. Okay, we learn later that the girl in question is [[spoiler:a malicious alien sent to spy on Haruhi]], but all of that still shows how much Haruhi cares for the world around her and wants it to be a little brighter.

* Haruhi's treatment of her friends in the Endless Eight arc. Instead of forcing them to search for strange stuff and what not, she instead organizes a list of fun stuff for them to perform during the summer holidays and even asks them if they want to do something themselves (she even writes down Mikuru's wish to go goldfish scooping). Its a very big pet the dog moment for Haruhi, showing that she really did change for the better after Kyon called her out for spiking Mikuru's drink.
** I think that was ''before'' she did the infamous thing with Mikuru's drink
*** It was after. The movie was made for the late Spring Cultural Festival, while Endless Eight took place in August.
*** Sorry, but Endless Eight was indeed before Sigh. [[http://haruhi.wikia.com/wiki/Timeline Here's the official timeline.]]

It's obvious that, at least from her epiphany on, that she didn't have any friends. In the beginning of the novel, she's very hostile to any one who tries to befriend her.
