Muh dick.
That moment when the entire series reaches its climax, and something goes horribly wrong. Either the villain is on the verge of defeat, or the heroes have no other option. Everything goes M.A.D.
"Launch it."
Season two beings with everyone just picking up the pieces and getting back together. Nothing is right, the things they were fighting for don't matter, and the world they want to save isn't the one they thought they were saving.
A change of plans, a change of doctrine, a change of perspective. The heroes have matured, and they now have what they need to defeat the real villains.
That blank face a typically nice character gives when he about to enter full rage mode and can't think straight

Maybe I have to rewatch the episode, but he was on par with the samurai dude, who is completely human, and without the telekinetic bursts and luck, and Biba's mercy, he would have died.
I doubt he was even mumei tier.

Need some answers nigga. Where that at,
>Happy/quiet/good nature character completely loses their shit / gets consumed by evil / does something they know is morally wrong because they can't resist how fun it is.
Its a shame very few shows actually go all the way with this. Often its just kind of hinted at. Wixoss immediately comes to mind as an offender.
>>145360837
When the usually calm and collected leader character starts breaking into tears.
>Characters sing to democracy while remembering the fallen

>Sorry I'm late
>useless and/or side character gets to be a badass

Final episode, final scene is a montage of how all the characters are spending the rest of their lives, months, even years after the events of the main story.
>all done with the first OP/ED playing in the background.
Tears every fucking time.
When you break barriers like this
>>145367422
Ruuko touched on it a little bit with the whole battle is fun even though it ruins my opponents lives, but she never really went off the deep end and became the evil ruuko the series hinted at in the first season.Actually I can't really remember cases of any of those happening save maybe gon vs pitou. Still characters going off their rollers or going from good to evil is just fun to watch.
>>145362046

orchestra/chorus music
this does it for me in any medium
dramatic chorus is awesome
I like it when there's a quick flashback of all the struggles and shit the character had to deal with and then he shows how much he improved.
Also when the character starts running as a kid and is shown growing up in the process like in the first ending of grisaia no rakuen.

>>145369492
I love it when people who choose to be dick get called on that shit. It reminds us how pathetic a person has to be to choose to be cruel.
>>145369917

I'm happy they didn't go with some bullshit cop-out as an ending even though it was a very sad scene.
Shit it took me 3 times to write this out correctly.

I love it when there's an elaborate plan and it seems like the viewer is supposed to know what happens but was actually deceived as well.
Bonus points if part of the strategy includes the opposing force figuring out the "first layer" of the plan.
