Howl's Moving Castle (anime)/Heartwarming

The book
"Howl: Now, I think we should all live happily ever after. It should be hair-raising."
 * The ending pays homage to its fairy-tale roots in a beautiful way -- with a little touch of humour that says so much about the story in general and all of the beautiful complicated relationships involved.


 * After Howl's, he only takes a few seconds to get his bearings...and then tries to get up, saying he has to rescue Sophie, clearly caring more about her than himself.

The film
"Markl: That lady said she wanted you to live with her now.
 * Markl asking Sophie if she's going to leave, after her mother stops to visit.

Sophie: Yes, well... at least she cared enough to visit.

Markl: Don't leave, Sophie! *Hugs her apron* I love you. You have to stay!

Sophie: Ah. I love you too, Markl. I'll stay."

"Sophie: Let's run! Don't fight them, Howl!
 * The scene where Sophie begs Howl not to go and fight. What Howl tells her afterwards makes me say, "Dawwww."

Howl: Sorry, I've had enough of running away, Sophie. Now I've got something I want to protect. It's you."
