Heartwarming / Breaking Point

Go To

  • Chrona becoming the Team Chef for his group of friends. He takes all of them into consideration and makes each dish suited for them. Special mention goes to making Kid's meals perfectly symmetrical, which Kid naturally goes wild over.
  • Marie comforting Chrona when he's rattled and upset after accidentally hurting Black Star.
    Marie: (helps Chrona into an infirmary bed and holds his hand) How are you feeling, Chrona?
    Chrona: Marie-sensei...I'm sorry.
    Marie: What are you sorry for?
    Chrona: (tearing up, visibly not all there) The snake. Dr. Stein. It's my fault. I betrayed you.
    Marie: That was a long time ago. I've forgiven you for that.
    Chrona: You were so nice to me, and I...I...
    Marie: Shhh. (pulls the sheets over him) Just rest.
  • Black Star's Heart Of Gold showing through when Chrona comes to his infirmary room to apologize for hurting him.
    Chrona: I'm sorry, Black Star. I'm so sorry. I never meant for this to happen. Y-you're my friend, and I -
    Black Star: Sorry? What are you talking about? These are just scratches. Little wounds like this will just make me stronger. I hurt you a lot worse.
    Chrona: But...you didn't even touch me.
    Black Star: I mean...Stein told me. I didn't know. About...all that.
    Chrona: It's okay. Thank you for not being mad at me. I was afraid. I th-thought you would hate me after this.
    Black Star: Hate you? For beating me in a fight? That wouldn't be very big. Aw, don't cry. I hate to see a girl cry.
    Maka: Black Star, he's not -
    Chrona: I'm glad you're okay.
    Black Star: You're a nice kid. You know that?
  • Six-year-old Chrona bonding with his new, adorable pet kitten Patch...right up until Medusa forces him to kill it.
    For the next month, Chrona feeds the kitten, cleans up after it, and even grows comfortable enough to pet its fuzzy little head. He can deal with the kitten. It is small and quiet and soft, like himself. Sometimes he dangles a string over its head and the kitten bats at it with tiny, clumsy paws.
  • This little exchange between young!Chrona and Ragnarok.
    Chrona: Ragnarok...Do you hate me?
  • Stein averting There Are No Therapists and helping Chrona learn to cope with everyday life, because he understands the issues that Chrona is faced with very well. It's clear to see how much he cares for his students.
  • Chrona and Maka's Dance of Romance at the Halloween dance, until Maka decides to take a little look into Chrona's soul and finds things she wasn't prepared for...
  • Everything to do with Soul being like a big brother to Maka and Chrona.
  • Maka and Chrona's Big Damn Kiss, which is also a First Kiss for both. Special mention goes to Chrona's reaction.
  • Shinigami and Stein talking about how Maka and Chrona's bond is so strong, that they can see a visible link between their souls. They are so close that they are literally soul mates.
  • Soul's response when an insecure Chrona asks him if Maka really does love him and isn't faking it:
    Soul: You remember when you and Marie-sensei went after Medusa? A lot was going on, then. The madness was swallowing everyone. Shibusen's forces were all sent to Arachne's castle to take her down, along with the Kishin. The fate of the world was at stake, basically. As long as I've known Maka, she's always thought with her head instead of her heart. She's always been a good student, doing things by the book and pushing her own feelings aside. But during that whole mess, when the world was coming apart at the seams, all she could think about was you. I'd never seen her so obsessed with anything or anyone. When the time came to make a choice, she chose to abandon the mission and go after you. You know what that means, don't you? It means that you were more important to her than the entire world. She's not pretending. She loves you. And she's in love with you. She told you as much, before you woke up. (smiles at Chrona) This sorta thing comes along once in a lifetime. Don't fuck it up with a bunch of crazy self-doubt. Okay?
  • During breakfast and a show on Chrona's first morning at Soul and Maka's apartment, there's this:
    Soul sighed and smiled at Chrona, who was huddled in his chair, wondering what to do. "Welcome to the family."
    Chrona looked around at them all.
    Family.
    Tears welled in his eyes. He ducked his head and wiped them away before anyone could see.
  • Maka's reaction on Chrona finally admitting to her that he is intersex.: she hugs him, rubs his back, and tells him that there's nothing at all wrong with him and that she loves him. Chrona, who thought that being intersex made him deformed and a freak, starts crying tears of relief into Maka's chest at her complete acceptance of him.
    Maka: You aren't a freak. You're just different. Being different isn't always a bad thing. When you were little, before you found out you weren't like other boys, you didn't think there was anything wrong with your body, did you?
    Chrona: No. But...
    Maka: She was the one who gave you that idea. Wasn't she? But she was wrong. You're perfect.
