** Well, Advent Children gave us Rufus managing to pull a massive screwjob on Kadaj for the majority of the movie [[Magnificent Bastard|magnificently]], and despite having a lethal disease, he ''jumped headfirst out of a window many floors above ground to blow Jenova's head up without any regard for the safety of his own ass''! The fact he managed to bullshit EVERYONE into believing he was totally harmless (including his own allies, based on their reactions), and perform a balls of steel level Moment of Awesome is pretty amazing.
*** Although it seemed as though the Turks were working towards this goal from the beginning. How else do you explain Tseng and Elena showing up as Rufus is plummeting towards the sidewalk, and they're armed with grappling-hook net-guns that nicely save their still-cool-headed-as-all-hell President? And Reno and Rufus don't see surprised to see the friends they thought were dead.
*** Two words: [[Magnificent Bastard]] [[The Chessmaster|Chessmaster]]. At [[Xanatos Speed Chess]], even.
*** Let's not forget the awesome way Rufus not only pulled off the sheet hiding his face and the aforementioned massive screwjob on Kadaj, he also had the last word, as well! "A GOOD son would have known," is one of the best lines in the movie.
* After going through 8 hours of the game where your attacks are doing from 50-300 damage, during the Kalm flashback when Sephiroth is semi-playable, watching him do 3500 damage per attack and taking 0 damage from a dragon that one shot KOs Cloud is stunning.
* The kids of AC. Did Marlene just [[Did You Just Flip Off Cthulhu?|chuck stuff at Loz?]] After seeing him beat ''Tifa'', of all people, into the ground? (And remember that basically reads: Did Marlene just stand up to {{spoiler|Sephiroth}}?). Neither of those kids likes people messing with their adoptive mama, actually; Denzel charges ''straight at'' Bahamut SIN, which is decimating the place, screaming "[[Precision F-Strike|You son of a BITCH!]]". The Complete version only made this better: Denzel smashing a fire hydrant to [[Kill It with Water]], and the scene where Cloud drops Marlene off at the bar... and she tells him she knows exactly what he's been up to, and proceeds to deliver a [[Rousing Speech]] to a man four times her age. (That last one doubles as a [[
* Say what you want about [[What the Hell, Hero?|an innocent flower girl running off to stop a sword-wielding psychopath who can and did slice her to ribbons in one second]]. And it's been mentioned before, but it must be reiterated; All the heroes did was smack up a [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]]. ''Aerith'' stopped [[The End of the World as We Know It]]. ''[[My Death Is Just the Beginning|From beyond the grave.]]''
* Though [[Final Fantasy VI]] did it first, this game was the [[Trope Codifier]] for [[Limit
** Tifa's arguably stand out among the best of the best. All her limit breaks consist of her launching a combo of pure, unadulterated destruction, and just get more and more powerful as they level up. On top of that, they also allow her to suplex absolutely ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING, resulting in her often suplexing monsters the size of freaking buildings with ease. Land all her slots on "Yeah", and you've got yourself a borderline [[One-Man Army|One-Woman Army]].
* Yuffie [[Kick the Son of a Bitch|bitch-slapping Shelke]] in ''[[Dirge of Cerberus]]'' after she [[Kick the Dog|calls Shalua a fool for sacrificing herself for her sake.]]
* Advent Children had quite a few, best described through their accompanying quotes:
{{quote|Cloud: [[Let's Get Dangerous|"I feel lighter... Maybe I lost some weight. All that dilly-dallying."]]<br />
Vincent: *joining the fray* "Where can I buy a phone?" }}
