* In Episode 8, Saber goes through a hellish workday at Ahnenerbe, including, but not limited to: Berserker assaulting the store, Gilgamesh being [[Jerkass|Gilgamesh]], and [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|people wasting food]]. At first, she gives the impression that it's because she wanted to help out (and to pay rent), but at the end, it turns out she wanted to buy Shirou a birthday present.
* The entire Caster and Souichirou segment, culminating in  {{spoiler|Souichirou proposing to Caster as she uncontrollably weeps tears of joy}}.
* It's sweet of Arc to go to such lengths to find the finest ingredients for Shiki's okonomiyaki, even though [[Hilarity Ensues]] as a result.
* After Saber delivers the finishing blow to BerSer-CAR in the '''Ilya Castle Special''' episode arcade game.
{{quote|'''Shirou:''' "Saber, we're having steak for dinner tonight."
'''Saber:''' "I love you, Shirou!" }}
** This is after Shirou had punished Saber by telling her she'd get no meals for two days after falling short in the previous levels.
* The post-credits scene in the last episode, where everyone's gathered in and out of the Ahnenerbe for the closing party,  {{spoiler|including [[Fate/Zero|Kiritsugu, Irisviel and Ilya]] having a family dinner, and [[Fate/stay night|Taiga, Gilgamesh]], and [[Fate/Zero|Iskander]] chugging down beers.}} It almost makes up for the happy endings they could never have in canon.
* And, among the ones celebrating from the outside,  {{spoiler|a smiling Type-Venus from [[Angel Notes]]}}. Bet you didn't expect that one!
* Special props to Hisui in episode 12. Despite Shiki running around all over town as part of his [[Zany Scheme]], her tone of voice shows genuine gratitude in his just spending a little time with her.
