* Strangely, Naruto's reaction to the Team 7 line-up is both this and a CMOF. After wanting to be put on a team with Sakura and ''not'' with Sasuke, he gets Sasuke, but Shikako instead of Sakura... and after ''booing'' about Sasuke, he sends Shikako a look that implies he wants to give her [[The Glomp]]. Which shows just how much her kindness has impacted him:
{{quote|"… seven is Sasuke Uchiha, Naruto Uzumaki and Shikako Nara," Iruka continued, and my attention snapped back to him. Naruto booed at Sasuke, then cheered, looking like he wanted to jump over the test and tackle-hug me. I gave him a weak smile.}}
* The scene where Shikako, Shikamaru, and Choji reassure Naruto that they don't care about the Kyuubi and that they are still his friends.
** The part where Choji offers him some of his food, particularly with Shikako taking note that to do so is a sacred thing to him. Naruto - and the audience - are [[Tear Jerker|likely tearing up]] at this point.
* Naruto's response to Fuu when he learns she is a jinchuuriki - complete with [[But Your Wings Are Beautiful]] and [[You Are Not Alone]]. Also a CMOF due to her taken-aback response.
* At the end of 1st Naruto movie arc, not just Naruto (as in canon) but ''all'' members of Team 7 get a signed autograph from Yukie.
* Chapter 57 has some of this in retrospect -  {{spoiler|Sasuke does not defect to Orochimaru}}. What makes this heartwarming is not only the fact that Shikako has cemented the bonds of friendship in Team 7 more firmly, but that {{spoiler|Sasuke is genuinely conflicted, and telling her is the ''first thing'' he does before her even decides to defect or not.}} [[Like Brother and Sister]] [[Ship Tease]], much?
