When a character realizes they are in love with another character. This is not when the character confesses this love to that other character or anyone else, but when the character realizes it themselves. Often this can be when a character had feelings already and realized this has blossomed into love, or when a character has been in denial about these feelings until this moment. Now this doesn't necessarily lead to a relationship. In fact, it can even be when the object of affection is with someone else. If not, this can be a way to add a new dynamic to Will They or Won't They?. This is especially the case in Belligerent Sexual Tension because the realization will amp up the tension. Sometimes occurs when the character analyzes his own tendency to the Green-Eyed Monster, or his protective impluses, or even tendency to feed this person. Subtropes include: Green-Eyed Epiphany: Realizing you like someone because you're jealous of their love interest. Love Revelation Epiphany: Realizing you like someone after finding out they like you. Belated Love Epiphany: Realizing you like someone after it's too late. Relationship Upgrade and Last-Minute Hookup are the natural extensions of this. Compare/Contrast Love at First Sight. Not to be confused with having an epiphany while making love. |

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, of all shows, pulls this off flawlessly in the season 22 finale. Carisi is asked to officiate Finn and Phoebe's wedding, and spends most of the episode agonizing over writing a speech for the ceremony. When the whole thing is abruptly called off, he's disappointed he didn't get to use it, especially since he spent all night rewriting it. Rollins asks him to read it to her, which he sheepishly does. The camera focuses on her while he reads it, and there's a slow, dawning realization that the feelings he's describing in his speech—which compares the intense bond of being police partners to the commitment of marriage—are exactly how she feels about him. Cue the Big Damn Kiss that was long overdue after several seasons of Will They or Won't They?. | |

A Bug's Life: It's implied that Flik has had a crush on Atta for a long time, but soon as the Circus Bugs save Dot from the bird, Atta begins treating Flik much more respectfully, talking with him about her own personal issues, realizing that perhaps they are more similar than she had thought, and apologizing for how she'd treated him in the past. Then she gives him his "Eureka!" Moment, and he kisses her on the cheek before running off, leaving Atta wide-eyed and caressing the spot where he kissed her. | |

In Sluggy Freelance, after years of Will They or Won't They? between her and Torg, recently had this happen to Zoë at the worst possible time, during a battle with an Ax-Crazy assassin who had been brainwashed into being madly in love with Torg and had just been revealed to be Pyrokinetic. She's nearly burned to death, and while advanced technology is able to repair her body, it's unable to repair her mind. She ultimately recovers, though without any memory of the event. Luckily this doesn't prevent her from realizing it again in a softer, more safe manner at the end of another arc. Soon after they do The Big Damn Kiss and become an Official Couple. |

28 issues earlier at the very end of Amazing #122 (The Green Goblin's Last Stand, the conclusion of The Night Gwen Stacy Died), a distraught and grieving Peter lashes out cruelly at MJ when she attempts to offer her sympathies over Gwen's death, telling her to Get Out! After a poignant moment's hesitation at the open door, MJ instead resolutely pushes it shut, refusing to leave Peter to suffer alone. The narration and artwork strongly imply, and later stories would fully confirm, that this was the exact moment that Mary Jane realized that she truly loved Peter Parker. | |

Miraculous Ladybug: Adrien (as Cat Noir) gets one for Ladybug during their second outing together. She's confident, courageous, compassionate, crazy, and crazy awesome. Marinette gets hers at the end of the Origins two-parter when Adrien offers her his umbrella, apologizes for his bad first impression and assures her that he genuinely wants to be her friend, whereas she'd initially assumed he was a jerk like Chloé. She immediately loses the ability to form coherent sentences. Marinette gets another in season 4. After spending a season and a half questioning her feelings for Adrien and exploring a relationship with Luka, she once again winds up under the umbrella with Adrien and realizes that she still loves him as much as ever. |

iCarly: Sam and Freddie obviously had one for each other, but oddly neither moment is shown on-screen. The 'mood app' reveal is after Sam already likes Freddie as she starts the episode iOMG liking him if the dialogue about her changed behaviour is taken at face value. Freddie could be considered the same in iLose My Mind because there's nothing that stands out as a moment Freddie realises he likes Sam back until the end where he kisses her. In iDate Sam & Freddie, it's revealed that Sam pushed Freddie into a bike courier, the courier hit Freddie, Freddie smacked his head against a fire hydrant, and as he was lying knocked out and bleeding from the ears, that was the first moment Sam realized he was 'kinda cute'. |

In Kobato., both main characters go through this at separate times: Kobato's moment of Love Epiphany starts after she sees Fujimoto being hurt by Okiura. She spends the rest of the night and the next morning reflecting on why Fujimoto's pain hurts her so much, and her reflection culminates in a beautiful moment when she decides to sing to him to better express her feelings. By the time she's finished, she's already realized what her feelings are, and she starts crying because she's a spirit who hasn't got long to live and there's no way she and Fujimoto can be together for long. Fujimoto's Love Epiphany is slightly mixed with Green-Eyed Epiphany: when he hears that Kobato went after Okiura alone, he is reminded of how Okiura stole his First Love, Sayaka. He gets angry that Okiura is always stealing what's his... Then he realizes he just thought of Kobato as something of his. He never really puts the realization into words, but the look on his face says it all. |

Naruto: The spirit of Naruto's mother Kushina explains how she fell in love with his father Minato: When she was kidnapped, Kushina left a trail of strands from her long red hair. Minato was the only one able to decipher the trail, ended up rescuing her, and then boldly complimented her red hair. Naruto himself has one mixed with Green-Eyed Epiphany in The Last: Naruto the Movie. While trapped in a genjutsu that makes him relive his memories, he starts seeing those memories from Hinata's perspective, realizing that she's been in love with him since they were children after he protected her from three bullies. After it takes him only one day to wrap his head around this—and after he notices that Toneri took an obsessive interest in her—he realizes that he's in love with her as well, and he responds by being incredibly unsubtle with his feelings and becoming a Crazy Jealous Guy every time Toneri tries to take Hinata away from him. |

Winry from Fullmetal Alchemist has one mid-way through the series. Earlier, Edward had called out Scar for murdering Winry's parents during the Ishval Civil War, not realising she was within earshot and emotionally breaking her. Ed manages to persuade Winry not to shoot Scar and comforts her as she cries for grief. Later, Ed makes her a promise that the next time he makes her cry, they will be Tears of Joy, referencing him and his brother getting their bodies back. While taking the train home from Central, Winry wonders if she's been in love with Ed for some time. Ed himself has one during his time in Briggs. While Winry is preparing his new cold-resistant Automail, Ed tries to warn her not to trust Kimblee, having had a earlier conversation with Riza Hawkeye on the horrors of the Ishval Civil War. He then remembers the other thing Hawkeye had said — her asking if he loves Winry. This leads to him completely freaking out and reciting the periodic table at top speed to try to distract himself. Considering he had previously vehemently denied any romance he may feel for Winry, his freak-out here gives away that he has grown to love her after all. At the end of the series, the two are shown to be married and have children. |

In Community, Jeff Winger finally admits to himself that he passionately loves Annie when he is forced to produce a burst of love in order to open a door. This is after Annie has a similar realization, and that Jeff's happiness means more to her than being with him when he apparently plans to marry Britta. | |

Beauty and the Beast, during "Something There", a song that's pretty much about this trope. And as seen in this pic, it freaks Belle out a little.◊ The Beast has one later after the famous ballroom sequence. His is a little different◊ as instead of realizing that he loves her he realizes what that truly means — that he loves her too much to continue keeping her as a prisoner, even though letting her go will all but ensure that his curse is never broken. Behold the face of ultimate suffering.◊ |

Happens at different times by different characters of Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions!, depending on whether you're watching the anime or reading the light novel. In the light novel, Togashi gets one and talks to Isshiki about it, who helps him understand his feelings with a bit of invoked Green-Eyed Epiphany. In the anime, Rikka gets hers after episode 8 and is helped along by Nibutani to really understand what she's feeling. |

Hinagiku in Hayate the Combat Butler has her realization (on her birthday!) on a balcony as Hayate is helping her out with her fear of heights. Not that she was fooling anyone BEFORE that. Unfortunately for her, just as she finally has the courage to confess to him, Hayate realized that he still loves his childhood friend Athena. Hina ended up supporting him to reconcile with her instead. Which naturally goes nowhere in this series, leaving her still unable to spit it out. | |

Inuyasha: Kagome has a very obvious one early in the series which leads to her decision to remain by Inuyasha's side no matter how difficult the Love Triangle with Kikyou becomes. Inuyasha actually has a quieter one early in the series as well, but when Miroku tells him to make up his mind which girl he's going to settle for, he asks if he can have both of them, summing up the problem with the Love Triangle. As a result, the love epiphanies do not resolve the relationship, they just ensure the status quo for the majority of the manga. Kagura realizes her feelings for Sesshomaru after he saves her from a river, and he realizes his feelings for her after she dies. |

Though Suzu was aware of her attraction to Matsuri from the start, she was far more hesitant about her feeling for his female self. Eventually, Suzu not only is far less restrained about such feelings, but makes the same observation Matsuri did about growing together as girls, concluding she is also in love with Matsuri as a girl. |

My Monster Secret: Youko starts off the series obliviously unaware that Asahi thinks of her as anything more than a buddy and Secret-Keeper. She even ships him with their mutual friend Aizawa. However, the school principal (an old friend of Youko's parents) starts poking at her and asking "Are you sure that he's only a friend?" She's in heavy denial for a good while (she even kisses him at one point, but tries to play it off), but what really leads to the epiphany is when Youko sees Asahi and Aizawa in seemingly romantic situations, which makes her feel sick and uneasy. Thankfully, Asahi finally confesses to her soon after and they undergo a Relationship Upgrade. | |

Alistair has the rush of realization at possibly the single most inappropriate moment in Shadow and Rose. He and Elissa are attending his half-brother's funeral pyre, and she reaches out to take his hand and try to comfort him. This simple act prompts him to consciously understand that he's in love with her and has been for some time. In his own words, "I guess I can't do anything quite normally." | |

Dragon Ball Z Abridged gives Krillin one in Episode 51. With the remote in hand that will explode the bomb inside 18, he hesitates and thinks of how her life will end suddenly and, likely, painlessly for her. Realizing that there are no Dragonballs to wish her back to life once Cell is dead, Krillin proceeds to rant at himself that he needs to man up and do something. | |

Edward Scissorhands: Kim is one of the few people who doesn't immediately welcome Edward into the neighborhood, due in part to the very awkward first encounter they have, and only grudgingly accepts his kindness towards her. She is more dismayed than happy to realize how much he cares about her despite this. But after she learns that he participated in the burglary of her Jerk Jock boyfriend Jim's house only because she asked him to, and from there allows the town to turn against him by not revealing others were involved, she begins to soften. Finally on Christmas Eve, as she sees Edward carving an enormous ice sculpture of an angel, which causes a shower of "snow" on the lawn, she impulsively twirls amongst the flakes in joy, wordlessly understanding at last just how beautiful Edward is and loving him for it. | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: In "The Fortuneteller," Aang first realizes that he is attracted to Katara. Katara herself starts to have an inkling at this point but has no epiphany. Korra is kidnapped in one episode and Mako is particularly passionate in the search. Once Korra is found, Mako begins acting strangely around her, and it's not until the final episode that he says that he realized how much he loved her while she was gone. Although it goes unsaid, it's very likely that Korra's near death from poisoning caused Asami to have one of these. The aftermath makes this evident for most fans, as Asami's treatment of her is much more tender and loving from there on forward, whereas prior it was obviously just a "best buddies" relationship. |

Smallville: In "Pariah", a truly Tear Jerker example occurs. Clark simultaneously experiences this with an Anguished Declaration of Love, when he realizes that he loved Alicia while trying to rip the head off her murderer. Despite having already been hit hard by her death, this realization, and the fact that he will never get a chance to tell her (knowing she reciprocated) completely breaks the future Man of Steel. In "Committed", Lois actually has one forced on her. When forced with the ultimatum of either letting Clark be electrocuted or answer "Yes or NO" to whether or not she loves him, all she can do is croak out a "Yes." and passes the test. This is despite the fact that they were only pretending to be a couple, and she had never really been confronted with the idea before. |

She didn't want to admit the feeling she had because of her pride as a warrior under Griffith, who she thought she was in love with until that winter day. | |

It just wasn't until he was faced with her potential death that he realized he was genuinely in love with her rather than just marrying her because they were "genetically compatible, highly intelligent, and had the same goals." He didn't even believe he was capable of love until said epiphany. | |

Rose has an epiphany in On the Edge after Declan saves her brother's life. She sits on the steps next to him thinking about what her life would have been like if she'd never met him, only to realize that she didn't want to never have met him because she's in love with him. Heartbreaking because Declan has ulterior motives for courting her, and she's duty-bound to resist his advances. | |

The prequel chapter to Realms of the Gods (The fourth book in Tamora Pierce's The Immortals ) is a mixture of this and a Wham Episode. (Made more interesting by the fact that several people didn't realise there was a prequel, and were completely caught out by the follow-up half a book later.) | |

The Spectacular Spider-Man: The season finale episode "Nature vs Nurture" is about Venom going after Peter Parker's friends and loved ones, eventually targeting the person he deems to be the one Peter "loves the most." Peter at first assumes it's Mary Jane Watson only to discover that Gwen Stacy is the one taken hostage. However, it's only after Gwen kisses him at the end of the episode that Peter puts two and two together and starts noticing his own unrealized feelings for Gwen. | |

In a pivotal conversation near the end of Revolutionary Girl Utena, Juri, already knowing the answer, asks Utena if she loves Anthy. Utena immediately tries to wave off her love for Anthy as merely platonic, but after a moment's hesitation, she trails off in her words and can't figure out the right way to describe her feelings. Like so much else in Utena, it's not stated outright and left up to the audience's interpretation, but it's very easy to read this scene as Utena's epiphany; it's after this conversation that Utena's resolve to save Anthy from her abusive brother is solidified for the rest of the show. | |

The Ouran High School Host Club manga has this — for several characters. First is Kaoru, who realizes he has feelings for Haruhi. Then Hikaru finally sees that he's in love with Haruhi after Kaoru explains that's why he felt so jealous when Haruhi spoke so kindly about Tamaki. Haruhi takes a while longer to finally realize she's in love with Tamaki, at first thinking her sudden blushing and being flustered around him were due to a cold. Finally, after over 60 chapters, Tamaki has the revelation that he doesn't love Haruhi as a "father", but that he's actually in love with her, as a man. | |

In The Dangers in My Heart Yamada gets hit in the face by a basketball, giving her a bad-enough nose bleed that she needs to be taken to the infirmary. Ichikawa follows her there out of concern and hides under a medbed to keep from getting spotted, questioning what he's doing all the while. Upon overhearing Yamada tearfully apologizing to her mother for getting hurt (since she had a photoshoot coming up), he sheds tears in empathy and realizes that he likes her. Since the series only presents what Ichikawa's thinking, its somewhat more ambiguous as when Yamada herself realized she was in love with Ichikawa after showing a growing interest in him. Two moments are presented as significant turning points; Ichikawa buying her a bottle of her favorite drink to cheer up, and later him quickly hiding the chocolate she was eating from a librarian (Most notably by grabbing Yamada's hand just before she was about to eat a piece). The latter is probably her realizing how much she liked him. |

In Naruto: the Secret Songs of the Ninja, Naruto is his usual Oblivious to Love self about Hinata's feelings for him, but is also oblivious to his own feelings for her as well (as in canon, he only has a shallow understanding of what love really is). At the end of chapter 11, during a romantic moment between the two of them, he almost kisses her without thinking, and then spends the better part of chapter 12 agonising over why he did it, even attempting to rationalise that he can't be in love with Hinata by comparing his feelings for her to his formernote he gave up his crush on Sakura after Sasuke's death at the start of the story out of respect for her loss feelings for Sakura, failing to realise that he has them backwards. It isn't until Jiraiya confronts him about it that he eventually comes to terms with the fact that he does actually love her. | |

In Amazing Spider-Man #150, which served as an epilogue to the original Clone Saga, Spider-Man comes close to dying and then realizes that his thoughts turn to Mary Jane Watson and his feelings about her (and not to Gwen or Aunt May). This realization that he loves Mary Jane is not so much important in itself as it is the factor that finally convinces him that he is the real Peter Parker and not a clone. 28 issues earlier at the very end of Amazing #122 (The Green Goblin's Last Stand, the conclusion of The Night Gwen Stacy Died), a distraught and grieving Peter lashes out cruelly at MJ when she attempts to offer her sympathies over Gwen's death, telling her to Get Out! After a poignant moment's hesitation at the open door, MJ instead resolutely pushes it shut, refusing to leave Peter to suffer alone. The narration and artwork strongly imply, and later stories would fully confirm, that this was the exact moment that Mary Jane realized that she truly loved Peter Parker. |

Shelena in Loyal Enemies realizes she's in love with her so-called enemy Veres in two parts. First, after Veres saves her life and takes care of her while she's recovering, she realizes that she has never been attracted to the Tall, Dark, and Handsome types, but Veres doesn't look — and smell — all that bad, though she tells herself to stop being silly. She then fully admits her feelings for him after catching herself being jealous of him kissing his former lover-turned-villain Tairinn, even if it was for show. Not that this makes her any less prone to snarking at him. Or herself: | |

Alan in My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! was kept for years from realizing that he was in love with Catarina by his brother Gerald, their mutual friend Keith, and his own fiancée Mary who didn't want more rivals. However, when she was nearly killed by a dark magician he finally realized it and tried to call off his engagement with Mary, who declined on the grounds that it made for good cover in deflecting suitors... leaving her free to also go after Catarina. Quite justified, as Alan is bad at processing his emotions and thoughts, due of being a Tsundere who suffered from Inferiority Superiority Complex that would surely got worse had not from Catarina's intervention back in their childhood. | |

In Yandere Kanojo, Hijiri's hair got splashed with oil-based paint when she painted graffiti in the school. When Shiratori sees it, she begins to cry. Shiratori manages to salvage the situation by giving her a decent haircut. She realizes that she cried because she was afraid that her image was ruined in the eyes of Shiratori and, from that, realizes that she is in love with him. | |

Almost every Good Omens (2019) fanfic will take as canon Michael Sheen's statement that Aziraphale realised he was in love with Crowley when Crowley saved Aziraphale's beloved books from a church explosion. Sheen has openly said that he played Aziraphale's reaction to this as exactly this trope. A lot of these fanfics will also depict Crowley as having realized his feelings for Aziraphale far earlier than him, sometimes as far back as their first meeting in the Garden of Eden when Aziraphale admitted to giving away his flaming sword to Adam and Eve to help them to Crowley's visible amazement. |

In Plan B, Bruno realizes that he's fallen in love with Pablo when Victor, after hearing how his initial plan to steal Pablo's girlfriend from him went awry, asks him when he suddenly started liking guys. Since Pablo is not only another guy but is also no longer speaking to Bruno after finding out about his plan, this epiphany only makes Bruno feel even more miserable. | |

Anne of Green Gables: Anne Shirley has a jarring love epiphany when her longtime friend and rejected love interest, Gilbert Blythe, is dying from typhoid fever. The description in the book ("Anne of the Island") is a borderline Tear Jerker: There is also a non-romantic instance for Marilla in Anne of Green Gables, when she sees Anne being carried home by Mr. Barry after breaking her ankle, not knowing that Anne's injury was minor. |

In Scarlet Lady, during the events of "Evilustrator", when Marinette (who had the Ladybug Earrings stolen from her by Chloé, not that she knows it) meets Master Fu, he muses that Marinette being in love with a superhero can't be easy. Marinette at first tries to brush it off, but then stops herself, and says "Oh"... and then proceeds to have an emotional breakdown that lasts her the rest of the episode. Throughout the comic's first two seasons, Marinette has been fighting alongside Chat Noir as a civilian since the titular heroine of the comic is The Load at best and The Millstone at worst, and has repeatedly put herself in mortal danger because of it. Chat had just begged Marinette to promise to stay out of Akuma battles before Fu and Marinette's conversation, and now she's emotionally conflicted about keeping her promise to stay away from Akuma battles and being a Violently Protective Girlfriend. Luckily for Marinette, Fu finds a convenient time to Take a Third Option and give Chat Noir the partner he deserves in Season 3, introducing the Bee Heroine Marigold. | |

I Wish: K is first told by Wye that he loves Lyu-Jin, because he's assimilating to her, but K brushes it off. A bit later, Lyu-Jin snaps at K for not visiting her while she was stuck in bed with a bad cold and K reiterates that he was sick at the time, too... and realizes that he is assimilating to her. Lyu-Jin takes a bit longer. On her birthday, she has a fight with K and meets up with him later. When she's about to ask the wish he suggested to her, he interrupts her and asks if she is hungry and wants to eat. In tears, Lyu-Jin realizes that K loves her and that she feels the same. The chapters depicting Seven's past with Lyu-Ui as his master show that Seven didn't realize he actually loved Lyu-Ui until said person has died and, due to belonging to an alien race, Seven's heart breaks. |

Kyo in Fruits Basket realizes that he loves Tohru in volume 11 when he finds himself yelling back at Akito for talking badly about her. Which, it should be noted, is significant because Akito is a scary-arse psycho mo-fo, as well as the head of the family, with a sort of supernatural power over all the others suffering the Zodiac curse. Tohru, meanwhile, begins to truly fall in love with Kyo as early as volume 6, but it doesn't really hit her just how much she loves him until the end of volume 18. |

OrangeLemon's Sannin Swap: Hinata partially inverts this during the Naruto Retrieval Mission; while battling Kidoumaru, she realizes that she had mistaken her admiration for Naruto for love. Unlike her, Naruto never seemed like he was afraid to assert himself, and she'd longed to be just as courageous as him. She also berates herself for never speaking up in his defense, as she was always afraid of being punished, and resolves to become a better friend and stand up for herself and others more. Ino plays this straight during the same mission. In order to deal with Sakon and Ukon, she forces herself to face her denial over whom she's really been crushing on and pursuing all this time. Not Sasuke, but Sakura. |

He's paralyzed by indecision for several tense minutes before finally realizing why he can't destroy her. It's also implied that he's felt this way since she kissed him when they met. | |

In War and Peace, Pierre Bezukhov is hit hard with the realisation that he loves Natasha Rostova when he's comforting her after her failed elopement and her broken engagement with Andrei Bolkonsky; he declares that, if he were free from his wife Hélène and the best man in the world, he'd propose to her without a thought. | |

In Sword Art Online, Asuna spent the first month in Aincrad terrified she was going to die, and for the next months could not sleep well because she was scared of the days of her life she was losing. Then she found Kirito napping under the sun and he convinced her to take one herself... and she slept the best she had in months. She then started to think of him every night before going to sleep and without fail she would sleep without nightmares — prompting her realization that she was in love with him. | |

Kaoru was already crushing pretty hard on Rurouni Kenshin to begin with, so when he leaves for Kyoto alone and she goes into a Heroic BSoD, she realizes just how much he means to her. Tomoe also has a tragic version when her allies' words cause her to discover that she's fallen In Love with the Mark. This, in turn, causes her Heroic Sacrifice. |

A Crown of Stars: Asuka realizes that she loves Shinji when he wants her staying behind as he sorties because he does not want her dying. She replies—without thinking—she loves him so what she is supposed to do if he dies. Later Shinji reminds her that she had said and she blushes. | |

In Star Trek: Voyager, the Doctor (no, not that one) has one of these for Seven Of Nine while teaching her to sing "You Are My Sunshine", made clear when, while singing with her, he happens to glance up at her face and his voice trails off in the middle of "you'll never know, dear". Of course, it all came to nothing due to Seven's Last-Minute Hookup with Chakotay. | |

How I Met Your Mother: Robin has one of these in "Drumroll, Please" (of the green-eyed variety) for Ted after he meets Victoria, resulting in an Unrequited Love Switcheroo. In "Milk", Ted has a moment like this for Robin. He gets the oppurtunity to go on a blind date with his dream woman, but he realizes that his lingering feelings for Robin are stronger and cancels it. This is visualized by Ted imagining a marriage ceremony between himself and a faceless bride when Robin, who is watching from the crowd while struggling to look happy for him, meets his gaze. The episode "Miracles" is when Barney realises that he is in love with Robin after he has a Near-Death Experience. Long after Barney and Robin have broken up, Barney gets another one of these in regards to her. Not only does he realize he's in love with her; he realises she's his "best friend and soulmate" and that he "can't wait to spend the rest of his life with her". This is the show's Casanova we're talking about. The finale reveals that the entire story is one big one for Ted as he's telling it to his kids, who call him out on it and encourage him to go get Robin. |

Gone with the Wind: Scarlett spends the whole movie obsessing over Ashley and how he married Melanie instead of her. She continues to do so even after she has married Rhett and they've had a daughter together. It isn't until she sees Ashley break down after Melanie's death that she realizes she never truly loved him and that she's always loved Rhett. And platonically speaking, it isn't until Melanie's death that Scarlett realizes that Melanie is her best friend and has always been there for her. |

Friends: After Chandler and Monica have upgraded from friends to Friends with Benefits for a while, a falling out between them one Thanksgiving leads Monica to don a turkey on her head, complete with sunglasses, hat, and a funny dance, to try and cheer him up. Laughing, he exclaims, "You're so great! I love you!" His amusement almost immediately dies into shock as he realises what he just said and what it means, and he freaks out so badly he takes it back. It takes several more episodes before he's willing to actually admit it properly and stand by it, and even then, Phoebe has to break him into confessing it. Chandler also describes an off-screen example, when they were dancing together and he realized his feelings. Happens in the finale with Rachel's answering machine message to Ross after rejecting him at the airport. She's assuring him that she loves him as a friend, "I love you, I love you, I love you. What am I doing? I love you!" You can actually hear her realize on the third "I love you" that she means it romantically. Another Rachel example, from when Ross was about to marry Emily: |

The Private Diary of Elizabeth Quatermain: The title character gets two, in a way. The first is in Volume III, when Skinner embraces her after she nearly dies (again) and calls her Elizabeth for the first time. In the following volume, when she thinks she might have a thing for Everett, her second epiphany at the ball in St. Petersburg hammered it home for her. Too bad Everett wasn't going to take no for an answer. | |

Sousuke finally gets his halfway into Full Metal Panic! when Kaname comes up with a plan that uses herself as The Bait. Sousuke finds himself once again uncharacteristically rattled by the thought of putting Kaname in danger; but after eight months learning to parse these new, confusing sensations he's been feeling ever since meeting Kaname, he's finally able to connect the dots and realize he feels this way because he can no longer tolerate the thought of a life without her. | |
