Heartwarming / Gad Guard

• Aiko's friends being supportive of her in episode 3. While they had no idea what was really wrong, their hearts were in the right place.
• Episode 5, Aiko risking her life to protect Sayuri when Katana and Zero nearly killed her while escaping a robbery. Also counts as a CMoA for Aiko.
• Episode 7, Arashi obtaining her own Techode by a combination of being in danger, and being kind to a stray cat.
  • Arashi's joy when she names her Techode.
  Arashi: I'm flying, I really am. I'm flying! Hayate, your name is Hayate.
• Episode 8, while also a little humorous. Messerschmitt giving a respectful bow of his head when Aiko introduces him to Seikai and Isa.
  • Seikai coming to the realization that Techodes are different from Gadirans after all.
• Episode 16, Aiko inviting all of her friends to her house for a party with her family. Everything goes pretty well for a while, though that sadly doesn't last...
• The end of episode 19, where Arashi finally manages to find the missing Hajiki. Who had decided to leave town with Lightning, in an effort to protect his loved ones form the dangers he's afraid he's attracting. In the end, she decides to join him on his journey.
• The powers of the Techodes are used to revitalize the planet by the end of the series.
  • Not to mention using some of that power to make sure Hajiki got home safe.
  • Hajiki is single-minded throughout most of the anime and Arashi's devotion to him goes ignored, making her understandably depressed. It was heartwarming to see him finally acknowledge all she'd done at the end.
