The Marvel Cinematic Universe is studded with iconic battles, deep-hearted drama, and gut-wrenching finales. Although Marvel movies are undisputedly action-packed, we can’t forget all those times that heartwarming MCU moments melted audiences to complete piles of emotional mush.

As the heroes and villains of the MCU run through their storylines on momentous voyages, they also manage to fit their ways into the hearts of fans around the world – and they don’t seem to earn that place with just battling. Be it either by giving a super-soldier a well-reasoned pep talk or connecting with relatives that were thought to be separated long ago, the cutest MCU moments melt down otherwise tense and rough extraordinary beings into emotional parts of family and friendship.
