  • Nearly every interaction between the present and future members of the Hashida family. Whether it's Suzuha and Daru amicably bickering or Daru being Adorkable around Yuki, their scenes together are always a delight.
  • Suzuha becoming a Cool Big Sis for Kagari when they're sent back in time together, giving her some tough love and keeping her occupied so she doesn't have time to be sad over being separated from her mother. Kagari quickly reciprocates when she answers Suzuha's orders with, "Okie dokie!"
    • Followed by Suzuha sparing as much time and fuel as she can in searching for Kagari as she makes her way from 1999 to 2010.
  • Luka strongly suspects that the others are keeping some kind of secret, and while disheartened with perceived lack of value, inquires about it from Suzuha. Suzuha refuses to reveal the secret of the lab & co.'s involvement with time-travel but offers her belief of why only Luka is kept out of the loop; and it may in fact be the one thing Okabe needs most of all in order to keep himself going: In that world line, Luka is the sole person among those Okabe loves who he was able to completely remove from the abomination of time-travel; the only person he saved. For that reason in turn, Suzuha says to Luka, "You are his salvation."
  • 2036 Daru revealing to Okabe that he didn't actually die in 2025; he instead fell into a coma after Stratfor's torture, and Daru and the gang recovered his body and kept him alive and hidden until he woke up. Heterosexual Life-Partners, indeed.
  • Most of Mayuri's interactions with Okabe, particularly the letter she leaves behind for him.
    • Kagari's interactions with Mayuri after it is revealed Mayuri is her future mother.
  • Moeka's expanded screen time in the "Twin Automata" route, where she gets a Big Damn Heroes moment and is also portrayed in a more sympathetic light.
  • Anime-only, but the moment where Okabe gives his speech to Leskinen has both Kagari and Moeka take protective stances in front of him, is both this and awesome.
  • This was only implied in the VN, but the anime finally shows 2025 Okabe finally coming back for Mayuri and Suzuha stranded in BC 18000, tying all loose ends. The look of relief on their faces has to be seen to be believed.
    • Also, the adult and free Kagari having remained alive behind in 2011 with Okabe and having joined the resistance.
    • Seeing all the lab members helping Okabe record the Rousing Speech first seen in the original Steins;Gate.
