Heartwarming / The Chordsof Paradise

• The amount of times Dash and Alice don't have a heartwarming moment is few than the amount of times they do.
  • Even without Shanghai, you can feel Alice's sorrow and fear when he was almost killed picking a fight with Mokou.
• Though Keine is not as close to Dash as Alice. It is show many times that she is looking out for his welfare.
• Pretty much any interaction with Dash and Shanghai. Sure it is an extension of Alice's will but you can almost forget that with Shanghai playfully latching onto Dash and Dash playing with the happy doll. Awww!
  • Which by extension, conveys Alice's more suppressed joy of meeting up with him.
• In chapter 31, Dash did not want to stop Mystia's rock concert especially since he personally taught Mystia himself which would not only ben undoing his work but would probably sadden the night sparrow.
  • The reason why Mystia didn't tell Dash what she was doing? She didn't want to burden him anymore than he is since he was busy and that she wanted to make him proud with how skilled that she has become while bringing a bit of his homeworld into Gensokyo for his sake. Quite the contrast to the Mystia that was willing to strong-arm Dash into her grill stand business a long time ago.
