* Wulfric’s Heart-to-Hearts and exclusive sidequest show that despite his monstrous appearance, he’s actually a huge softie who just wants to have friends. His eagerness and enthusiasm to [[spoiler: go into a mine to save trapped miners]] compounds this. Plus, going into the Pouch shows he’s into literature.

* A meta example can be seen in KOS-MOS's very appearance in the game. For many fans of the ''VideoGame/{{Xenosaga}}'' series, it was an [[UnexpectedCharacter unexpected]], but welcome surprise, especially since many had come to accept that at most, the ''Xenoblade'' series would merely reference its predecessors, if that.

* Many moments in Chapter 10 [[spoiler:during the party's chat with Klaus]] where Rex's optimism continues to shine though. Such as him saying that even after everything Malos has done after stopping him Rex would just punch him and them have a drink with him (even though Rex is not old enough to drink) and be friends. This causes [[spoiler:the normally despondent Klaus to actually give a small smile. And later when the party does defeat Malos, Rex openly mentions that if only he was able to bond with Malos's Core Crystal like he did with Pyra maybe they could have lived peacefully as friends, with Malos replying "kids say the darnedest things" not completely against the idea]].
