History Heartwarming / SonicX

* Sonic and Knuckles comforting Tails after failing to flying his ship competently that he's a good captain anyway.

* A rare bit of {{Woolseyism}} in the dub edit of "An Enemy In Need". During the ending scenes, Knuckles apologising for falling for Eggman's trickery again, though Cosmo comforts him, pointing out he merely trusts Eggman because he believes there can be good in anyone.[[note]]The Japanese edit has the slightly less heartwarming outcome of the team sweet talking Knuckles after he complains about them tricking him in their ploy to stop the MonsterOfTheDay.[[/note]] Interestingly the dub conversation seemed to take on as Cosmo's analysis of Knuckles is almost repeated word for word in [[http://media.sonicscanf.org//gallery/sonic-channel/200803-knuckles-the-echidna.jpg some Sonic Channel bios]].

-->'''Knuckles''': To the light that controls the power, protect the universe with your everlasting light! Even if I have to give my life, I beg you listen to me, Master Emerald! Please give us your power! Give us the power to protect everyone!

-->'''Knuckles''': To the light that controls the power, protect the universe with your everlasting light! Even if I have to give my life, I beg for your help, Master Emerald!

*** The moment is Heartwarming, Awesome, and a Tear Jerker at once. Made even more powerful by the background music, the fact that the Master Emerald had previously been implied to be sentient, and by Knuckles' wording of his request to this one:
-->'''Knuckles''': To the light that controls the power, protect us with your everlasting light! Even if I have to give my life, I beg for your, Master Emerald!

* Anyone can well up watching the end of the second series of ''Sonic X'', when Sonic takes Chris running one last time before he has to do the whole return to his own world forever thing. It's summed up in the fact that Sonic cries for the first time pretty much ever in that continuity, and the kid gets the tears in his face. That you never see Sonic's eyes just makes it worse.

** [[spoiler: Made even better by the fact, in the French Dub, Sonic ACTUALLY says he does love Amy!]]

* Chuck hugging Tails goodbye at the end of the first season was almost as emotional.

** People keep mentioning Chris's sacrifice in this situation, but you can also look at [[spoiler:Knuckles, who is also feeling the impact of this decision. The Master Emerald is very important to him, but he's willing to offer it's power to save the universe, even at the cost of his own life. The fact that Knuckles is willing to put the safety of his friends before his duty as a guardian shows how much he's grown as a character.]] Plus, his chant, as always, counts as a Moment of Awesome. Even as the Emerald [[spoiler:starts to break apart]], Knuckles keeps going, pouring his heart and soul into the chant.

* Cream's reunion with Vanilla in "The Chaotix Detective Agency".

** Their [[spoiler: {{Love Confession before parting]] is both this, and a TearJerker.

** Their [[spoiler: goodbye kiss]] is both this, and a TearJerker.

* Sonic giving Amy [[spoiler: a rose in the final episode of the second season.]]

* "Sonic the Fugitive": Sam reassures the President that Sonic has to be innocent, stating that "a true hero doesn't betray people's trust". The President's secretary disagrees and badmouths Sonic, calling him unfit to live in their world. [[MomentOfAwesome Sam responds by making the car come to an abrupt stop, causing her fall to the floor and drop her papers. His smirk as he justifies himself saying "A cat just crossed the street" makes the scene all the better.]]

** Similarly, in ''{{Sonic X}}'', Cream's reunion with her mother.
** [[SonicTheHedgehog Sonic X]] again. During the episode ''Last Resort'', Amy makes Sonic a bracelet out of shells to protect him when he's [[SuperDrowningSkills around his weakness, water]]. Instead of being all put out the way he usually is when Amy makes a romantic gesture, Sonic can only stare at her in surprise. The look on his face, coupled with the look on Amy's, is absolutely adorable.
*** Add this to the fact that after the bracelet is smashed , and Amy is convinced it's lost, the episode ends on a scene with Sonic, watching the water and wearing the repaired bracelet. [[AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther Awww]].
** The ending to Episode 52, ''Memories of the Wind''. [[spoiler: There Amy has waited for a good while for Sonic to return. When he does, Amy rushes to him, yells at him while in tears, then finally declares she would have waited for his fateful return for the rest of her life. THEN she screams for Sonic to just tell her he loves her. Sonic responds by giving her a flower and an answer...which is inaudible and thus ambigious.]] But it works so well that you're likely to be "awww"ing throughout.
*** [[spoiler: Made even better by the fact, in the French Dub, Sonic ACTUALLY says he does love Amy!]]
** The fact that Sonic actually flew to Amy's house just to visit her. This is the girl that he's always running away from, yet he travels miles to see her. And because Amy was staying at Cream's house, she had to run for hours just to reach him. She leaves in the middle of the night, and by the time she gets home, it's morning. Now ''that's'' dedication.

* Mr. Stewart's BecomingTheMask arc. He's an agent of the military sent to investigate Sonic's appearance in Station Square, posing as an elementary school teacher in Chris' classroom. Since then however, he's grown to be a respectable authority figure, giving advice and even going against his own orders to evacuate when Perfect Chaos starts flooding the city so he can get the kids to safety.

* Chris Thorndyke may have [[TheScrappy annoyed the living heck]] out of 80% of the viewing audience but anyone can well up watching the end of the second series of ''Sonic X'', when Sonic takes him running one last time, before he has to do the whole return to his own world forever thing. It's summed up in the fact that Sonic cries for the first time pretty much ever in that continuity, and the kid gets the tears in his face. That you never see Sonic's eyes just makes it worse.

* The final battle against the Metarex shows time and time again how much the cast care for each other. Heartwarming, in an otherwise tense, and at times, {{Tear-Jerker}} finale.

* At the very end of the series, Tails is seen [[spoiler: watering a small plant which is heavily implied to be what has grown from the remaining seed of Cosmo, implying there may be hope for her return yet.]]

* In "The Cosmo Conspiracy" Shadow, [[spoiler:even though he's out to kill Cosmo due to her being an unintentional spy for the Metarex, gets a subtle few of these. The fact that only Rouge knows his true mission shows that he (and by extension Rouge as well) would rather be seen as villains than tarnish the group's memories of their close friend, and when Tails interferes Shadow offers him a chance to run, to which he obviously refuses. This actually impresses ''[[TheStoic Shadow]]'', leaving a smile on his face]].

* A rare bit of {{Woolseyism}} in the dub edit of "An Enemy In Need". During the ending scenes, Knuckles apologising for falling for Eggman's trickery again, though Cosmo comforts him, pointing out he merely trusts Eggman because he believes there can be good in anyone.[[note]]The Japanese edit has the slightly less heartwarming outcome of the team sweet talking Knuckles after he complains about them tricking him in their ploy to stop the MonsterOfTheDay.[[/note]] Interestingly the dub conversation seemed to take on as Cosmo's analysis of Knuckles is almost repeated word for word in [[http://media.sonicscanf.org//gallery/sonic-channel/200803-knuckles-the-echidna.jpg some Sonic Channel bios]].

** Amy is also the first person Sonic goes to visit upon returning home. Not his best friend Tails, but Amy. And because Amy was staying at Cream's house, she had to run for hours just to see him again. She leaves in the middle of the night, and by the time she gets home, it's morning. Now ''that's'' dedication.

** Amy is also the first person Sonic goes to visit upon returning to his own world, and as the pink hedgehog was staying at Cream's house, [[Determinator she ran for hours just to see him again.]] She leaves during the night, and by the time she arrives home, it's morning.

* In the end of "Cracking Knuckles", there's Knuckles giving Sonic a slight grin after the fight with Eggman's machine, which pretty much shows he is beginning to have a little respect for Sonic. Also there's the part where Sonic goes to grab Knuckles' arm, saving him from colliding to the rocks of the machine, showing that for all of his teasing towards him in the episode, he does have his back.

* Ok, this was very brief in quite a TearJerker/battle scene, but when Sonic is about to power up a cannon to destroy the dark oak [[spoiler: and by extension, Cosmo]], he sees Shadow approaching it too. When inside, the two exchange a small smile with each other as if to say; "together?" "together.". It's one of those moments where we see their upmost respect for each other.

* In another one of the episodes, Rouge is about to fly off to look for Chris and tells Knuckles to help Tails set up some equpitment. Right before she departs, Knuckles wishes Rouge good luck and Rouge winks back. Considering most of the diolouge is comedic, this is quite a sweet moment.

* In episode 25, Chris starts to get nervous about going out in the woods. Knuckles, then, tells him that he doesn't have to worry, because he'll protect him.

* The final battle against the Metarex shows time and time again how much the cast care for each other. Heartwarming, in an otherwise tense, and at times, {{Tear-Jerker}} finale.
