''Minimonsters'' is generally a comedy full of [[Comedic Sociopathy]], [[Toilet Humor]] and [[Crosses the Line Twice]]. Behind the comedy, there's surprisingly large moments that warm the reader's heart:
 
== El Veneno de Porcelana (The Porcelain Poison) ==
 
* When [[Spoiled Brat|Victor]] moves to Villa Susto at the beginning of the first album, [[Dogged Nice Guy|Piruja]] greets him (and falls for him right off the bat), enthusiastically telling him they'll be inseparable friends. Victor is unhappy about it, of course, but it's adorable seeing her like this.
** Even more heartwarming is when you take into account Piruja is the only character to be constantly kind and friendly to him when everybody else [[Jerkass|understandably]] didn't care or hated his guts (Even [[Gadgeteer Genius|Frank]] had ulterior motives in befriending him and told him point blank he's [[The Friend Nobody Likes]])
Line 25 ⟶ 23:
 
== El Perfeccionator (The Perfeccionator) ==
 
* The comic's [http://www.normaeditorial.com/libros_img/01203308601_G.jpg book cover] features Frank protecting Henrietta from a ''very'' [[Slasher Smile|evil-looking]] [[Big Bad|Miss Hit]]. Especially moving {{spoiler|considering both girls' [[Jekyll and Hyde|true relationship]].}}
** The back cover is even better: It features Frank showing his heart-shaped brain to Henrietta, and her being flattered by it. It's [[Better Than It Sounds]].
Line 52 ⟶ 49:
 
== Historias para no Dormir (Sleepless Stories) ==
 
* In "El Cómic" (The Comic), [[The Cutie|Gus]] puts all his friends as the main characters in his [[Sherlock Holmes]]-esque story. And it's adorable to see.
** Also, he was kind enough to put Victor in the story (as the [[Victim of the Week|victim]], but that's another story), considering he almost always treats him like shit.
Line 90 ⟶ 86:
 
== El Gran Partido de Calabacesto (The Great Pumpkinball Match) ==
 
* When Victor shows up to the gang, Gus enthusiastically gives him the Fresita (Strawberry) Team uniform, thinking him as a member of the team. Unfortunately, Victor [[Kick the Dog|rejects it]], gleefully stating [[Face Heel Turn|he's on the "Muerte Chunga" (Morty's Gang) side now]].
 
Line 104 ⟶ 99:
 
== Others ==
 
* In one post-Perfeccionator story, Billy tries to be nice to Henrietta after the two are paired up in class. Given he's [[The Pig Pen]], though, his methods are [[Hilarity Ensues|hilariously]] [[Squick|inappropriate]], a fact not helped by Henrietta being an extremely [[Ill Girl]].
** Even though she's clearly discomforted by it, she patiently and politely deals with it, knowing he is just being friendly to her, at least until [[Vomit Indiscretion Shot|she has enough]]. Even so, she didn't snap into [[Super-Powered Evil Side|Miss Hit]] at any point in the story, which means a lot.
Line 118 ⟶ 112:
 
== Outside examples ==
 
* When "Minimonsters" ran on the ¡Dibus! magazine, the creator, David Ramirez, has always been shown to be very close to his fanbase. Some of the things introduced at the comics where their fans' ideas, both characters and stories.
** Even better, there's a lot of his fans who post his signatures with drawings of the characters in it. Heartwarming indeed.
