  • In the ending of Madou Monogatari: The Final Test, Arle wants Phantom God to revive Schezo after his Heroic Sacrifice. As much as she gives him crap and snark for his shenanigans, she would never wish death on him and is distraught and heated when she saw him killed off. Thankfully, to her relief, it turned out Schezo was only ejected out of the dungeon and not actually killed.
    • Before the fight with Phantom God, Arle has some second thoughts fighting the god, thinking she's not strong enough to win. Rulue steps up to give her a pep talk, and essentially tells her to give them a good beatdown in Schezo's name. Even with the two at odds for Satan's romance, outside of that, Rulue can be a big sister to Arle when she needs to be.
    • Even before the disaster, the fact Schezo chose to save Arle and Rulue instead of himself is a surprising gesture from him, and even he thinks the act was unlike him. Deep down he does care for the two in his own way.
  • At the end of Madou Monogatari: Tower of the Magician, Schezo ends up sparing Wish and her power for another day. It rendered his quest for power ultimately pointless, but he reasons that it wouldn't be a fair duel after he just freed her from possession. As someone who stops at nothing to gain more power, this is an incredibly generous gesture from the dark mage.
    • Furthermore, he complains that his mission was a waste... but turns around and begins pondering about training for himself, kickstarting some Character Development to become stronger by his own means, and not through someone else's. He's also grown attached to his Action Pet Tenori Zoh, happily taking him along for his training when he trumpets from his shoulder.
