Kinemon's small, satisfied smile after Momonosuke got away totally broke my heart; it was like he knew he'd done everything he possibly could for that kid, even with his blades shattered. I can't even fathom fighting with that much determination against Kaido, knowing you're probably not making it out alive but still seeing your mission through.
