History Heartwarming / MightyMorphinPowerRangers

* A very heartwarming moment when Tommy attempts taking the Zeo Crystal, protected against evil (implied to be responsible for Lord Zedd's appearance !) and requiring Incorruptible Pure Pureness : He gets a very serious warning that with his past as the evil Green Ranger, there is no way his heart can be pure enough to claim the Zeo Crystal. He ignores the warning and does it anyway, going through a painful seizure as his past evil deeds flash back in his mind. Even so, he overcomes it all and succeeds in taking the McGuffin for his team.

** Apart from Creator/JasonDavidFrank, none of the MMPR rangers appeared in ''Series/PowerRangersMegaforce'' (at least not helmet-less). David Yost's reason for not appearing was that he should have at least received an apology for the gay-bashing he received. Creator/WalterEmanuelJones declined to appear in support of Yost.

* All the Rangers, with the exception of Jason, are prepared to quit after having suffered a string of defeats at the hands of Rita and her new Green Ranger. When they discover the Green Ranger is a brainwashed Tommy, their desire to fight is renewed by a determination to save their friend. This not only saves Tommy from Rita's control but it also begins Tommy's long history as a hero in the PR universe. Even in ''Series/PowerRangersDinoThunder'', Tommy still credits his friends as the reason he is the hero we know and love him as today.

* Doubles as a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome. After disposing of Nimrod in "White Light Part II." The Red Dragon Thunderzord walks across the field and grasps the hand of the Mega Tigerzord and gives him a thumbs up and they nod before striking a pose. While they often do this in later episodes as well, on this one its as if the Rangers are telling Tommy 'welcome back' and Tommy saying 'it's good to be back'.
* A Meta one - at [=C2E2=] 2013, Creator/JasonDavidFrank appeared for a panel & fan Q&A. Amongst the questions asked were if he would return for the [[Series/PowerRangersMegaforce 20th Anniversary season]] to which he asserted that he'd do it for $1, but nothing could top his answer to the first question: if he had ever felt ashamed over his ties to the show.
--> "Visiting kids in the hospital who has a dying wish to see you? No way, man. To experience that – forget cameras, fame, forget all that. I’ve never been ashamed of it. For 20 years I’ve been promoting it and I’m still doing it. It’s part of who I am.”

* Upon learning that Alpha and Zordon were creating a new Ranger, the five veterans were somewhat disappointed that Tommy might be replaced, but Jason and Billy knew that with a more formidable villain to face, they needed this new Ranger regardless of whomever it was.

** Following Thuy Trang's death, all her former costars attended her funeral. TrueCompanions indeed. The only exception was Creator/JasonDavidFrank, as he had to attend his brother's funeral, but he nonetheless sent his condolences.

* An early episode has a bit of Fridge Heartwarming. The Rangers summon the Megazord in order to save a little girl from being dropped to her doom by the MonsterOfTheWeek. Said monster is still human sized, mind you. One of Zordon's rules is that you can't escalate a fight unless Rita forces you to. Saving a little girl is equally important to the Rangers as stopping a monster from destroying the city.

** Finally it's implied that, while they may [[CardCarryingVillain both be unabashedly evil people]] the love that the two have for each other is genuine and one of their few redeeming qualities [[spoiler:as Rita and Zeed are two of the few villains who were purified due to the Zordon's energy wave at the end of [[Series/PowerRangersInSpace In Space]].]]

* Tommy and Kimberly's first kiss always makes this troper squee every time. It’s just so pure and sweet.

* In "Ninja Quest," Bulk and Skull graduate from the Junior Police Academy. Seeing the Power Rangers and Ernie attend the ceremony to applaud them for all their hard work definitely gave this troper some warm fuzzy feelings.

** The little girl's father actually being able to come and see her during the performance.
** At the end of the episode, Rito Revolto gives a present to Goldar for no apparent reason other than getting into the holiday spirit in spite of the villains' general contempt for Christmas.

** In the original VHS version, before heading for the North Pole, the Rangers receive a message from Kat, who is visiting her family in Australia for the holidays.

** It's also implied that Zedd may have subconsciously had feelings for Rita long before the two got married since in the episode "Beauty and the Beast", after having Goldar kidnap Kimberly, he tries to turn her into his bride. So who does Kimberly end up resembling during the attempted brainwashing? Rita. Meaning that Rita is Zedd's ideal mate.

** Also, Rita originally gave Zedd the potion to eventually overthrow him. But somewhere along the line, up into that point, she comes to truly love him.

-->"''Power Rangers, you destroyed the Crystal of Nightmares and broken Rita's spell. You've regained your self-confidence. May the power protect you.''"

* In "The Power Transfer, Part 2", even though [[RealLifeWritesThePlot Austin St. John, Thuy Trang and Walter Jones had walked off set and the Power Transfer was essential]], after a formidable encounter with Serpentera, Trini briefly felt that they couldn't leave for the Peace Conference.
