Crisis Core/Awesome


 * "Angels dream of one thing... to be human."
 * Doubling as a Crowning Moment of Funny is the scene just before the Bahamut Fury fight. Genesis summons Bahamut Fury, Zack gets ready to fight and...his cellphone rings, Aerith is calling him. Zack nonchalantly tells her he'll call her back because "I've got some company." as Bahamut Fury descends in front of him roaring.
 * Her response: "Don't keep them waiting."
 * The beginning of the game where Zack calmly whips out his cellphone and has a conversation with Angeal while getting fired at by enemy troops. Later you find out, but at the time it is awesome.
 * The beginning scene that leads up to this is awesome too. Zac jumps out of a helicopter, runs along a moving train, deflects multiple bullets, then jumps over a stream of bullets and a squad of soldiers and detatches the front train car from the others.
 * The entire ending sequence is one long CMOA combined with one hell of a Tear Jerker.
 * In Sephiroth's flasback, the fight sequence between Genesis, himself, and Angeal.
 * This troper is extremely fond of the way the Nibelheim incident is told in Crisis Core. Mostly due to the extremely badass showdown In the original game,  In Crisis Core, it turned out
 * Personally, This Troper thought one of Zack's Moments of Awesome was.
 * This is actually a good argument for this being a Moment of Awesome for Square Enix's storytelling abilities. Put it this way: the first time watching the ending, when I saw Zack say the SOLDIER creed for the last time and charge at the Shinra army, I thought he would do so in a cutscene, or maybe the game would just cut to black and end right there. It's quite possibly the greatest Gameplay and Story Segregation aversion in the history of the videogame industry.
 * And then, of course, Zack can get another one later by beating the game's obligatory Bonus Boss - Of course, this is a severe case of Gameplay and Story Segregation, since Zack
