History Heartwarming / TheBatman

* When “A Matter of Family” isn’t being a TearJerker, it’s filled with these.

** The fact that Bruce had a painting of Dick’s parents made and hung it up in Wayne Manor.
** Bruce’s sheer determination to track down Tony Zucco.
--->'''Bruce:''' The criminal responsible for my parents’ death was never brought to justice, Alfred. That’s a burden I ''won’t'' let Dick carry.

* "Artifacts": Bruce, Barbara and Dick's relationship when Dick and Barbara are adults. Unlike in the [[WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries other]] [[WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond timelines]], it's obvious they never became estranged and Bruce never had any sort of relationship with Barbara; Oracle and Batman still call him "Robin," even though he's been Nightwing for a decade, and Dick affectionately calls Bruce "old man" as they fight Mr. Freeze. It's Bruce's way of saying, "You may be all grown now, but you'll always be my son."

** When the cops show up, Meredith calms the guy down and he actually surrenders. He even gets a pec on the cheek for it! [[BruiserWithASoftCenter THIS, all coming from a guy like him.]]

* Joker and Harley's relationship, compared to other versions. Usually, Joker is abusive toward Harley ([[AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther though there have been a few times that imply he does return her feelings]]) but in this version it's clearly more mutual. He even stole a diamond that was roughly the size of a ''softball'' for her for Valentine's Day. And even when it does look like they're veering towards the typical Joker/Harley relationship dynamic, it only lasts a few seconds, and he never lays a finger on her.

* "Artifacts": Bruce, Barbara and Dick's relationship when Dick and Barbara are adults. Unlike in the [[WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries other]] [[WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond timelines]], it's obvious they never became estranged and Bruce never had any sort of gross relationship with Barbara; Oracle and Batman still call him "Robin," even though he's been Nightwing for a decade, and Dick affectionately calls Bruce "old man" as they fight Mr. Freeze. It's Bruce's way of saying, "You may be all grown now, but you'll always be my son."

* In the episode "A Dark Knight to Remember" Bruce gets a hit to the head during a fight with Penguin. Unfortunately Bruce gets a bad case of memory loss, and forgets he's Batman. After getting attacked a dozen times, thoroughly confused by the way everyone has been treating him, and finally putting on the cowl without having a ''clue'' about being Batman, seeing Barbara/Batgirl in trouble is enough to get him back in the field.

* The ending of ''Seconds''. Just... [[SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong the ending of ''Seconds'']] where Francis Grey uses his powers to go back in time to when he stole the watch. He decides not to steal it, which means he builds an honest career out of repairing clocks, and has a healthy relationship with his son. And in the new timeline, Bruce hires him to regularly repair the Wayne's grandfather clock.

* In “The Man Who Would be Bat”, Bruce Wayne personally delivering a hearing-aid for a girl who he believes is deaf. Even if he was being lied to, the fact that he'd go out of his way to help her is adorable.

-->'''Alfred:''' I can never replace them, Master Bruce, but I promise I will never leave your side.

* Seeing Dick's interactions with his parents, considering what happens to them and that they have more screentime compared to WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries.
