Three Kingdoms/Heartwarming


 * Diao Chan willingly follows Lu Bu to his execution, and Lu Bu seems to have truly loved her.
 * After losing battle upon battle, Liu Bei's sincere gratitude to Xu Shu for actually helping him win against Cao Ren is wonderful to watch.
 * Zhou Yu refuses point-blank to accept Sun Quan's offer of command over the Southlands, as it was not Sun Ce's wish. After Lady Wu reveals to him that Sun Quan only tried to pass off command for the good of the Southlands and his brother's legacy, Zhou Yu leads the other generals in pledging eternal loyalty to Sun Quan before Sun Ce's memorial.
 * Before leaving for Wu on a likely-suicidal marriage mission, Liu Bei visits Zhuge Liang to give him a way of "dealing with" Liu Bei's own sworn brothers if they get out of line. When Zhuge Liang responds with shock to this, Liu Bei reiterates his trust in him, stating that he knows Zhuge Liang is the only one who can possibly carry out his life's goal of restoring the Han. This moves Zhuge Liang to tears and inspires his own declaration of loyalty, which he holds fast to for the rest of his life.
