Thank you for this great feedback & for acknowledging the subtle details within the scene :D We did redesign the icon-bubble too and this actually ties into the overall interaction mechanic that we had improved on for the rest of the game as well.
In fact, we are actually going to fit in another animation here at the very end during the title appearance; you hit the nail right on the head when you mentioned that the kid should be shocked by what just happened, and we'll emphasize that better ;D
Have an awesome weekend ahead!
