Heartwarming / The Girl Who Leapt Through Time

• "I won't be long... I'll come running."
• Makoto's younger sister "saves" her Makoto from leaping out of the window and profusely apologizes for eating her pudding cup. All the while hanging on to Makoto's waist and shirt. She continues watching her from the window when Makoto goes out for some pudding. Makoto then waves to her sister goodbye. Sisterly love....
• Chiaki asking out Makoto...Too bad she keeps time-leaping out of the situation.
• Kaho and her friends playing baseball with Chiaki and Kousuke.
• Makoto promising Chiaki that she'll preserve the restored painting somehow so he can see it in the future.
• Chiaki pulling a Heroic Sacrifice. To explain, he used up his last time leap in order to prevent the deaths of Kousuke and Kaho...even if it meant giving up his last chance of seeing the painting.
• In the end, after Chiaki goes back to the future (no pun intended), Kousuke wonders where he went. Makoto makes up a story that he went to study abroad. Given what happened in the previous timeline where Chiaki disappeared, when every body made up rumors that he did something bad that got him expelled or something, Makoto is making sure the whole school has nothing but reputable things to say about Chiaki.
  • What's more, Makoto going to great lengths to set up Kaho with Kousuke with the simple advice the latter invite the former to play ball with them, as well as prevent the two from dying a death by broken bicycle brake.
