* In the midst of declaring her regret and hatred from her experience animating "The Illiad", Red also admits (if [[PlayedForLaughs begrudgingly]]) that this video in particular ''did'' kick-start her gig of animating her stories, so some good did come out of it.
** There's something surreally adorable about seeing Clytemnestra (Agamemnon's future wife who kills him to avenge her daughter) depicted as a [[UsedToBeASweetKid cute little baby]] alongside her siblings and demi-god half-siblings.
** When Red narrates how the story "Cypria" has one depiction where Helen was adopted and actually the biological daughter of Nemesis, Greek Goddess of vengeance against hubris. Cutely enough, while her adopted mother lifts her in the air, baby Helen has a view of her biological mother Nemesis waving to her, as though letting her infant daughter know she'll always be watching.
** In a way, Odysseus is the reason Helen's marriage to Menelaus was possible. He was able to advise her father to make the other suitors swear a divine oath to protect her marriage. Otherwise, the King would still be stuck trying to decide between so many suitors who would've gone to war in retaliation for not being chosen. So Odysseus is unwittingly the reason Helen and Menelaus are together! Heck, in some variations of the story, it's ''Helen'' who willingly chooses Menelaus.
-->'''Helen:''' (casually, warmly) The Redhead is cute.

* The ending of "Myth/CupidandPsyche [[Eros and Psyche]]" is one big collective heartwarm. Eros resurrects Psyche and carries her up to Olympus to properly be married. Zeus is completely on board with it, and tells Aphrodite (who'd been harassing Psyche nonstop for most of the story) to back the hell off. Psyche is given ambrosia which makes her into an immortal goddess and she and Eros are married as equals.

* In Part 9, Tripitaka is very polite and gentle when turning down the Empress' marriage proposal to him, insisting that even though his vows prevent him from marrying, he still likes and respects her as a person, and urges her to not be upset by his rejection. The Empress, while still clearly heartbroken, understands his situation and takes his rejection in good faith, and is oddly reassured when the scorpian demon's shenanigans whisk the party away, as it reinforces her views of him as an honest, virtuous young man.
** Later on, when Tripitaka is abducted by a scorpian demoness [[AndNowYouMustMarryMe who also wants to marry him]], he snarks that if he really ''did'' want to get married, he would have stayed with the empress, since she actually respects him and his boundaries.
