A Certain Magical Index/Heartwarming

"Wait until your head stops hurting, and then I'll definitely knock down those bastards and liberate you."
 * Volume 1:
 * Many of the things Touma says to Index:

"Wait until my summer classes are finished, and then we’ll go to the beach and play together."

"When summer ends, would you like to transfer into our school?"

"We definitely will create many more memories."


 * In episode 6, when Touma pretends his memory loss was a joke because he doesn't want to see Index cry. He has no idea who this girl is, doesn't know anything whatsoever, but he's still Touma.
 * Also a Tear Jerker. "Touma... don't you remember? Index... Index... loved you, Touma..."
 * After Aureolus Izzard has been defeated, Touma says that despite his murderous agenda, he still had enough decency and humanity not to use his Reality Warper powers to force Index to love him.
 * Misaka 10032 questions why Touma is trying to save her, since she's just a clone and there are roughly 9000 more for her. Touma answers that, even if she's a clone, she's the only Misaka 10032 in the world. She is unique and can never be replaced.
 * When her cat licks her, causing her to smile.
 * Even though the Angel Fall arc is a marathon of Crowning Moment of Funny, there's Touma meeting his father for (from Touma's perspective) the first time, and Touma finding the picture of his family and finally learning what his mother looks like.
 * In episodes 19 and 20 when Accelerator takes a bullet to the head to save Last Order. Even if it doesn't redeem him.
 * Episode 24, despite learning that Hyouka, Index still loves her as she's still her best friend no matter what.
 * The final episode of season 2. Last Order wakes up in the hospital and asks "Where is he [Accelerator]?" After the frog-faced doctor's reply of he'll be back soon, she nods and says "Okay, Misaka wants to see him soon," before going back to sleep. An incredibly cute end to an action filled season.
 * Volume 15: Yomikawa talking Accelerator out of  wich made Accelerator fly into Unstoppable Rage coupled with Despair Event Horizon. And then Last Order appeared and stopped him with a Cooldown Hug, just like that, because she knew he would never hurt her.

 * In the same novel, everything that the Pope does.
 * Volume 22: After 3 volumes of desperate searching for a way to save, and the first thing he does is embracing her tightly and saying "...Damn it, thank you... thank God...!!" Both of those are the last things one would expect to do, but it just shows how important  is for him, and it just makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside.

 * After being fatally wounded, Touma accepts his seemingly-inevitable death. He tells Othinus to use Imagine Breaker better than he did, to restore her original world.
 * Othinus realizes that Touma had come to understand her - something she was after all along. She heals his body and restores his world instead of hers.
