Heartwarming / Power Rangers Ninja Storm

• The episode "Tongue and Cheek", mostly because it had one of the rangers (Dustin) use his ranger powers to actually fight real crime. Sure, he may have let the fame go to his head a little. Still, it was nice to see a power ranger act like a, well normal superhero for a change. Can't understand why everyone else tried to chew him out.
• Hunter and Blake's relationship with Sensei Watanabe isn't very apparent but does undergo a huge change. At the start they were driven solely to kill him on the belief he killed their parents. After being accepted onto the team, Watanabe gives them the same teachings and wisdom he did his original students. By halfway through the season they are following his guidance and referring to him as "Sensei" like he'd always been their mentor.
• Cam saving Marah and Kapri... because they're family. Cam has a grudging but really open definition of "family," considering that he's only related to the girls through his uncle Lothor, Lothor is only related to the girls through marriage, and Sensei claims that Lothor's banishment means that he's no longer their relative anyway. But it touches Marah and Kapri right to the heart, they proudly call Cam "cousin" every chance they get next season, and given the choice between going back to Lothor and risking his wrath by helping Cam and the Rangers, they choose Cam.
• Tori, Dustin, and Shane only become Rangers and avoid being captured by Lothor in the first place because they decide to give a stranded old couple a lift. Karmic Jackpot, anyone?
• When Lothor fires Marah in favor of her friend Beevil, Beevil making Marah an integral part of her plan rather than just ignoring her after getting that job is somewhat touching.
  • Also in the same episode, despite Marah betraying Dustin and tricking him into empowering Beevil, she at the end of the episode feels guilty for the betrayal, despite her uncle congratulating her for once. Kapri even sees that Marah actually has feelings for Dustin.
    • Even in the series finale, when Cam saves Kapri and Marah from the exploding spaceship, the latter asks him if Dustin is still mad at her, confirming that she does have a crush on him.
• When the Rangers learn that Cam wants to be a Ranger but his father won't let him, they all immediately speak up on his behalf.
• Tori trying to teach Blake to surf.
• At the end of "The Samurai's Journey: Part III", the Rangers give Cam a Ninja uniform to show that they've accepted him on the team.
