For a Manga with so much sadness and loss, Tokyo ESP also tends to have its fair share of heartwarming.

! Moments pages are Administrivia/SpoilersOff!

* Seeing the Hong Kong underground fighters finally get to leave and see their loved ones makes it feel like Rinka's choice to become a villain in Japan was worth it.
* Rinka FINALLY getting to see her dad again after a year of him thinking she betrayed all her morals. Both of them are reduced to tears. It ends with Rinka, Rindo, Murasaki, and Peggy sharing a hug ''26 issues'' in the making, with Azuma smiling in the background and uttering his catchphrase of 'miracle.' Miracle indeed.
* Rinka forcing Azuma to promise that he won't leave her behind anymore in chapter 9. It's the point where the two stop being acquaintances and become true friends.
* Azuma ''finally'' getting it out in the open in chapter 53; he loves Rinka, and would discard everything for her. And Rinka's response? 'So long as you say those words...we'll be able to keep moving forward.'
* Minami deciding, at the end of ''London ESP,'' that she isn't alone anymore...because she has [[TrueCompanions Kozuki.]] The feeling is mutual, by the way; despite her grandmother securing her safety and all the times Minami lashed out at her, Kozuki ''still'' decides by the end of ''London ESP'' that she'll always be by Minami's side, actually managing to impress her hardass of a grandmother, in her own roundabout way. Finally, both Black Fist sisters have someone to fight for.
* Chapter 57:
** Kobushi is back and (mostly) recovered, and for the first time in the entire manga, Rinka is nothing but [[FireForgedFriends happy to see her back.]] Considering how they spent most of the manga bickering up to this point and being annoyed by each other's appearance, it's nice to see the two can finally be buddies for real. And what's more, [[ThePromise Kobushi never forgot her promise during Rinka's time as a prize fighter to go out and get Gyudon after all was said and done.]]
** Thinking about how the tournament arc has changed him, Azuma spiritually passes the torch of Crow Head, his heroic persona, to Marume, after all she did to save people.
* In chapter 58, we find out why Minami was unable to just dash away from the grenade. For a crucial moment, she hesitated...because she didn't want to leave Kozuki behind.
* What causes Minami to break out of her hopeless stupor in chapter 62? [News that Kozuki may, in fact, be alive.
* Ren, in a bittersweet way, fulfills Nene's LastRequest.
* The final chapter:
** Marume did, in fact, survive. As did Rindo and Azuma!
** As expected, the final chapter is filled with heartwarming. [[AntiVillain Amame and the Professor still live, now in seclusion,]] Kozuki and Minami now travel the world together and Minami is happy, Rindou has a job again, as a detective (meaning he can go back to rooting out corruption) Rinka's mom is making an appearance in Rinka's life again, Rinka and Azuma are happy together, Murasaki and Ayumu are on the cusp of coming together, Marume and Ren want to become police officers, Tokyo is slowly recovering, Nadja now has a purpose in life besides being a killing machine, working as a CIA operative, and Rinka and Ren have so many new friends now! And at the very end...it turns out Ren is still AnIcePerson.
