Heartwarming / Tenchi Muyo: War on Geminar

• Episode one, despite the Masked Man's repeated insistence that he had to assassinate Lashara. Since it was the main condition in the Masked Man's offer to send him home. Once Kenshi does have the young Empress cornered, he insists on abducting her instead.
  • While Lashara first prevents Chiaia from killing Kenshi on the bases that as a male Sacred Mechamaster, he would fetch a high price. She also points out that he did not appear to have the conviction of a "true" assassin. Likely meaning Lashara did not want the boy to die for something, that he had clearly been forced into.
  • On top of that, while technically imprisoned. Kenshi's injures were tended to, and his clothes were cleaned for him. Though... sticking him a cage and hanging him from outside of the ship, not so heartwarming.
  • Though it swerves back into heartwarming again after Kenshi starts sneezing from being out in the cold all day. Everyone brings him a bunch of food and blankets. Though, Chiaia finds out about this... and snatches the gifts back.
  • Everyone one on the Swan working hard to help Kenchi recover, after he had gotten sick.
• Episode 2, Kenshi happily handing over the rare mushroom he found in the forest belonging to the elves to Princess Aura and her guards.
  • When Kenshi comes across a seemingly ill Ulyte. Kenshi then explains to the older man that he was taught how to make the herbal remedy, from Washu herself. Before sheepishly claiming it to be, a family recipe.
• Episode 3, Kenshi recovering the young student Lapis Larz's precious handkerchief given to her from her mother from a cliffside. After some bullies had rather callously stolen it and tossed it down into the dangerous cliffside.
• Maria's relationship with Yukine. Maria, a royal princess, treats Yukine, her handmaiden, more like an older sister than a servant. While Maria may have some ulterior motives for trying to get Yukine together with Kenshi, she does genuinely care for her. Contrast this with Lashara openly treating Kenshi like a slave, forcing him to do whatever task she can profit from.
• Episode 4, which involves Chiaia fixing Kenshi's pendant after she snapped the chain. Chiaia, who had spent the entire series so far as Kenshi's merciless taskmaster, felt so bad over accidentally breaking something of his that she went to the best jewelers in the Holy Land to see if it could be fixed. In the end she handmakes a chord from red thread that Kenshi likes. Chiaia feels genuine joy over this, at least until Mahya explains what that particular thread symbolizes...
  • Despite Maria's previous behavior of being rather snobbish and lording over everyone about her high status. When inviting Kenshi to lunch, she also invites Ceres and the rest of the male Mecha Masters from class.
  Maria: After we graduate, we'll each have our own unique stations in life. But right now, we all study in the same classroom. So, while we're in the Holy Land let's ignore the social barriers that will ultimately oppress us.
• All of episode 6, which feature the adorable Ceres and Hazuki. It was also nice to see Kenshi agree to keep Ceres and Hazuki's relationship secret, and later arrange for the pair to escape together.
