Line 7:
* Mercuremon. Between taking out Seraphimon, using Seraphimon's own attack, and orchestrating a [[Mind Screw]] of a [[Xanatos Gambit]], he leaves the other Dark Legendary Warriors still standing at the starting line.
* Episode 33; Loewemon and JaegerLoewemon are able to take down a Cherubimon which the rest of the team had difficulty defeating even when working together. He tackles IceDevimon with the same attack later.
* Episode 40; Angemon taking on a herd of angry Centarumon by himself in a good example of the [[One -Man Army]] trope.
* The Digimon in Episode 45 who stand up to the Royal Knights. Though seven of the nine got killed, it's refreshing to see [[The Unchosen One|non-chosen]] Digimon [[Badass Bystander|taking the initiative]]. If only Koiji and Takuya had got there in time, [[Curb Stomp Battle|they could all have contributed]] and the [[Boring Invincible Villain|Royal Knights]] arc could have been shorter and more epic, or [[They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot|at least more interesting]].
* Episode 47; The final defeat of the Royal Knights, long overdue.
Line 13:
* Episode 50; When things are looking really grim. {{spoiler|All the digimon spirits and the celestials show up to give the kids hope and a pep talk.}}
* The crowing moment has to be when the FINAL form of the [[Big Bad]] attacks the gang from behind. {{spoiler|All of the Legendary Warriors appear and vanquish him for the last time.}}
* [[User:Justice Gundam]]'s favourite season, despite all the flak it usually gets, has quite a few CMoA... but the last few episodes were what really got him to favour it. Namely, {{spoiler|the heroes defeating the Royal Knights, after having made progress after painful progress in previous fights during the latest 10 or so episodes -- they went from not even being able to touch them, to giving them a little pause, to actually harming them, and finally to defeating them both. And then, the final battle against the all-powerful Lucemon himself, with moons getting ripped apart by the villain's unimaginable power; Kouichi's sacrifice, the birth of Susanoomon, and the five kids joining together to destroy Lucemon's [[One -Winged Angel|Satan Mode]], which in this troper's mind erased all the disappointment of Takuya and Kouji hogging the spotlight in the second half. The only other season with an equally epic ending is ''[[Digimon Savers]]!''}}
** ''Nothing'' could erase Takuya and Koji reducing everyone else to living [[Transformation Trinket|Transformation Trinkets]]... but Frontier did have some great moments, like Mercurymon's [[Xanatos Gambit]], Duskmon and Beowulfmon's grand battle, all ten Legendary Warriors coming together to put a beatdown on the Royal Knights, and ''Gotsumon'' of all 'mons (for non-fans...Gotsumon is a kid-sized rock Digimon and not ''anyone's'' idea of [[Badass]], even though the ''Frontier'' version has a few tricks his short-lived ''[[Digimon Adventure|Adventure]]'' counterpart didn't.) gets to digivolve and [[Let's Get Dangerous|get dangerous]].
*** To expand on the above mentioned [[Final Battle]] between Susanoomon and Lucemon Shadowlord Mode -- it's a [[BFS]]-wielding [[Physical God]] vs Giant Dragon Satan ''IN SPACE!'' This sequence alone makes up for every flaw in the rest of the series.
* Underneath [[Spot Light Spotlight-Stealing Squad|all the]] [[Power Rangers|season]] [[Seasonal Rot|backlash]], [[Digimon Frontier]] is just badass:
** Everything about the Kouji/Kouichi plot, which was foreshadowed as early as in ''episode one'', was [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|badass]]. The Crowning Moment of Awesome of THIS Crowning Moment of Awesome was when {{spoiler|Kouichi sacrificed himself to save the Digital World and almost freaking died in the process.}} Dark plots and Digimon go hand in hand perfectly.
** Different troper from the above, but some love for the Mercuremon/Sefirotmon mini-arc is in order, particularly Tomoki's fight with Asuramon, and Junpei's... well, basically it was a fight against himself, and it was ''badass.''
