The Orphaned Kitten side quest in the first game. You get to assist in the care of a stray kitten including giving her a name (despite some minor cases of Artistic License – Animal Care).
One scene that can be easily missed has Naoyuki and Ichiro visit Ryo's house shortly after Nozomi's Confession. Once Ryo gets there, they call him out and that his recent behavior is worrying Fuku-san. Not only did Fuku-san ask them to talk to Ryo, but they also assure him that they're there for him like any good friends are.
Fuku-san gladly handing over the cute little piggy bank that holds his life savings, so that Ryo can travel to Hong Kong.
When Nozomi is kidnapped by the Mad Angels and Ryo needs to get to the harbor ASAP to rescue her, he asks Naoyuki if he can borrow his motorcycle. Even though Ryo doesn't explain the situation and it's in the middle of the night, Naoyuki doesn't ask any questions and doesn't hesitate to loan his bike to our hero. Despite Ryo's quest causing tension around his close friends, Naoyuki's still a friend through and through.
Almost every scene involving Nozomi is this.
At some point in the game, Ryo comes home to discover that Nozomi had come to deliver flowers for the altar room to honor Iwao's memory, and remembered which ones were his favorites. Ryo can also call her to thank her for them.
After the snowy night of Christmas, Ryo goes to Sakuragaoka Park and finds Nozomi crying, Ryo sits down with her and after talking a little bit, Nozomi warms herself by cuddling up on him, Heartwarming!
Nozomi:Please... just for a while... stay with me... (Ryo sits down alongside her) Nozomi:Christmas is already over... Ryo:... Yeah. Nozomi:We didn't get to celebrate together... Ryo:... Yeah. Nozomi:I so wanted to spend Christmas Eve with you... Ryo:... Nozomi? (Nozomi cuddles up on him) Nozomi:Stay with me... for a while... Ryo:... Yeah. Nozomi:I wish time... would just stay still.
When Ryo lands a job at the harbor, Nozomi will visit him and Eri will shoot a couple of pictures with them together. If you choose the better photo, Nozomi will end up with the bad photo and react accordingly, but if you take the bad photo and leave her with the better one, she'll light up with a smile.
Doubling as a Tear Jerker, if you visit Nozomi after you're fired but before you meet Tom, she'll thank Ryo for saving her and even ask if they can ride together on the motorcycle again. Talk to her more, and she'll ask Ryo if they can go to a movie together and if she can visit Ryo's house. Although Ryo simply responds with a "yeah" both times, and Nozomi will sound excited each time, unfortunately it seems they never do.
The scene where Ryo and Nozomi ride back together on the motorcycle as the song "Wish..." plays.
After Ryo and Guizhang take out the Mad Angels, despite his cold demeanor towards Ryo throughout the game, Guizhang decides to help arrange Ryo's trip to Hong Kong to he can go after Lan Di.
Nozomi: Please... just for a while... stay with me...
