** Belos also confirms to have met the previous All For One user, possibly fighting him. As in [[CoolVersusAwesome All For One vs. Emperor Belos]]. EvilVersusEvil. He also mentions that the CardCarryingVillain almost foiled his FinalSolution plan when he raised hell on The Boiling Isles and sees him and his successor as a legitimate to be eliminated.

** All For One has been to The Boiling Isles before and intends to find a way to get there again. During the supervillain's time there, he turned a few of the natives into [[TheMole his moles]], including a few in The Emperor's Coven! He had enough charisma to convince the cult-like loyal elite belong to Belos to come work for him instead.

** A heroic one for Eda Clawthorne. Its also heavily implied the Titan's Blood Shigaraki got his hands on came from King after he got a hold of him when the 2 ended up in the "The Mutant Realm". This means one two things: Eda was able to sneak into the {{Big Bad}}'s SupervillainLair, grab the young Titan and escape back their home dimension without getting caught. Or, even more impressive, Eda went full MamaBear mode and fought her way through, possibly including All For One himself long enough to rescue her surrogate son to pull a ScrewThisImOuttaHere for the both of them. If its the latter, then Eda has lived up her claim of being "The Strongest Witch of The Boiling Isles" by taking on the self-proclaimed "Demon King" and getting away with it. [[HandicappedBadass And that's factoring her being hindered by her Curse]]!

--> ''Rikitatsu Shigaraki was a man of planning. He never did anything without a plan, a backup plan should that original plan fail, and another backup plan if that backup plan fell through. Some people would call him meticulous to a fault, and perhaps that was his downfall prior to his death, but he had plans in place should he ever die before his plan with Tomura would see through. And right now, he was grinning ear to ear. He had been put in the perfect body for his backup plan to work, what with Luz being young, full of life, and completely oblivious to what it was he was attempting to do.''

Despite the DarkerAndEdgier nature of this story, there are still moments that easily live up to the canons of both sources.

** Luz has been taking initiative in getting around being banned everywhere. Banned from a store? Use Amazon. Need to learn something? YouTube had learning and school channels. If she needed more tools for educationl? Khan Academy works, too.

** After Luz sends her remaining teammates away to safety and waits nearly 2 whole days with no food, water, and very little sleep for the perpetrators to come back, they arrive expecting an easy kill. The second All For One user quickly proves them wrong by bringing down the large boy [[SmugSnake Kennedy]] just ordered to murder her first by using her new VibrationManipulation Quirk to make his heart '''explode'''. After absorbing his SuperStrength Quirk, she gains Shigaraki's [[RedEyesTakeWarning red eyes]] and gives a PsychoticSmirk to the now terrified teenage killers who are having a DeerInTheHeadlights reaction. Look out punks, [[MythologyGag here comes the Otter with a Darkside]].

** Luz, taking Shigaraki's advice, has taken up an exercise regiment in a nearby forest to increase the number of Quirks her body can hold at a time. In a month, she goes from a scrawny kid to having an [[HeroicBuild impressive athletic physique for a teenaged girl]]. Her goal for herself Is to become the [[TerrorHero Symbol of Justice and Fear]].
** Camila gets a more mild but noteworthy one. With Quirk her daughter gave her, [[HealingHands Repair]], has improved her Veterinarian skills that now runs her very own animal hospital. Thanks to that, she and her daughter no longer live in that small lower-class house and is able to afford a better home for 2 to have a fresh start.

** In the second half of the chapter, Luz makes her debut as All For One the VigilanteMan who's costume consists of a CoolMask that goes with her BadassInANiceSuit outfit. She makes her presence known to a pair of bank robbers, who kidnapped a teenager while escaping the police because TheyKnowTooMuch, by using her AbsurdlySharpClaws to grab their car radio and ends up '''ripping the entire car in half''', scaring them out of the second half of their getaway vehicle. [[ShootingSuperman After tanking a shotgun blast]], Luz decides the hell with it and kicks their ass, non-lethally. The subsequent chapters, its revealed that the second All For One user has gained enough of a crimefighting rep to be noticed and appreciated by the locals.

** Later, one of Luz's former bullies tries to antagonise her at a Donut Shop, only for the All For One user to show she's having none of that and push her the ground. When the AlphaBitch starts mouthing off, Luz inflicts enough pain in her shoulder for her to scream and threaten to do worse if she doesn't leave her alone. According her, this the first time she stood up to a bully.

* In chapter 6, when Luz reveals her PowerParasite ability to her entire team. Instead of being afraid of her, they point out how incredibly useful that's going to be in this DeadlyGame and consider her TheAce in hole for the Alpha Squadron to DePower the other teams if they try to kill them.

** After Luz sends her remaining teammates away to safety and waits nearly 2 whole days with no food, water, and very little sleep for the perpetrators to come back, they arrive expecting an easy kill. The second All For One user quickly proves them wrong by bringing down the large boy [[SmugSnake Kennedy]] just ordered to murder her first by using her new VibrationManipulation Quirk to make his heart '''explode'''. After absorbing his SuperStrength Quirk, she gains Shigaraki's [[RedEyesTakeWarning red eyes]] and gives a PsychoticSmirk to the now terrified teenage killers who are having a DeerInTheHeadlights reaction.

** The next one Luz takes down is a boy that pulls a LeeroyJenkins with a Triple Impact Quirk... not knowing of her newly acquired SuperToughness that allows her to No-Sell the punch. She then proceeds to [[AndShowItToYou tear out his heart and crush it]] before taking his Quirk in front of his horrified accomplices.

** Luz proceeds to go ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill on her final victim. To be clear: after mutating to express those Quirks, Luz's left "arm" is bigger than the entire rest of her body, and is wrapped in thorny vines and metal spikes sticking out of a pile of stitched-together flesh. It's an abomination that wouldn't look out of place on a demon from The Boiling Isles, and looks even more monstrous attached to the teenage girl. It's very reminiscent of the same move All For One used to attempt to finish off All Might in their final battle. As she attacks and finishes off [[AssholeVictim Kennedy]], she makes it clear he brought his demise on himself and his Quirk isn't worth stealing before crushing him to death, completely averting IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim.

* The opening of chapter 14 reveals that Governor Rodger Maxwell has been sentenced to life in prison for his many crimes, without the possibility of parole.

! In General

Let's be honest. Despite the DarkerAndEdgier nature of this story, there are still moments that not just live up to canon of both sources but jump over the bar of it.

* In chapter 5, Luz first meets Shigaraki in her MentalWorld she can immediately tell this guy is ObviouslyEvil {{Supervillain}} and to take what he says with a grain of salt. Despite initially getting excited when he appeals to her desire to be TheChosenOne, finding out she has a PowerParasite Quirk she says what an awful thing it is to others. When he tries to plant the belief that Quirks have AddictiveMagic behind them, the young teen calls him out on being a ManipulativeBastard and lets him he's not gonna do things his way and become a bad guy. She may be a CloudCuckooLander, but Luz is GenreSavvy enough to know that All For One isn't trustworthy and the EnemyWithin will have to be a bit more subtle in his manipulations to have any chance in winning Luz over.
** It has a retroactive one for [[BigGood All Might]]. This chapter also confirms that unlike canon, All Might managed to put down All For One for good — a man who had, by his own admission, 1000+ Quirks at his disposal and [[EvilOverlord who basically ruled Japan in the shadows for at least a century]] — 5 years before the start of My Hero Academia story. Even if he still became a HandicappedBadass in the aftermath, he took down the main BigBad in his universe permanently, avenging his sensei and everyone else that suffered because of that evil bastard.
* In chapter 6, when Luz reveals her PowerParasite ability to her entire team. Instead of being afraid of her, they point how incredibly useful that's going to be in this DeadlyGame and consider her TheAce in hole for the Alpha Squadron to DePower the other teams if they try to kill them.

** In climax of the chapter, Luz takes her first Quirk taking her first step, in All For One's words, "on the road to becoming the strongest human being this world would ever know". Julia viewing her new friend as a MessianicArchetype and looks like to become the first devoted cult member.

** A villainous HannibalLecture example. After hearing her explanation, Shigaraki does an accurate Psychological Evaluation on the young teen and the situation she's in: She sees taking away other people's powers as not only taking away what's special about them but projecting her own pain loneliness onto others. That she has an IJustWantToBeSpecial wish and deep down [[TheDogBitesBack likes the likes the idea of taking power away from those who don’t deserve it, especially those that discredited her creativity and wrote her off as a weirdo]]. He points out that the [[ImaginationDestroyer original Reality Check Camp was going to strip away her creativity]] when it would've been better then to give her better direction instead and her own didn't do enough to stick for her and could've prevented getting her in this situation by not caving into the peer pressure. As much as Luz hates it, she can't deny that the VillainHasAPoint. His ability to pick out a person’s weak-spots and fears are impressive in a messed-up way.

* In the end of chapter 9, Luz's is attacked by Cody who's Quirk is PlayingWithFire. As the rest of team scatter away from his flamethrower attack, Stanley [[TakingTheBullet pushes one of his comrade who couldn't get away from the flames and takes the full blast]]... only to NoSell it being no worse for wear due to his SuperToughness. He then proceeds to laugh, start KnuckleCracking and give a wordless BringIt look, which encourages his teammates that they could take on their attacker working together.
* In chapter 10, its Luz's team vs. Cody, A five-on-one fight. The {{Pyromaniac}} is proven to be too overconfident in his abilities with Luz co-ordinating her newly formed team. The battle ends with [[HeroicBuild Stanley]] smashing the aggressor's head repeatedly into a tree, knocking him out cold, and Luz {{DePower}}ing him with her PowerParasite Quirk.
* At the beginning of chapter 11, [[EvilFormerFriend Kennedy]] approaches [[LovableJock Stanley]] at night and attempts to invoke ThePromise they made to watch each others' backs by getting him to betray Luz for extra prize money. Stanley all but tells him to piss off, invokes ScrewTheMoneyIHaveRules , pimp slaps the SmugSnake into a tree after he tries to punch him and is prepared to fight the other enemies he noticed hiding in the darkness to [[BigBrotherInstinct protect his leader]]. If he wasn't sent to the Death Camp, he could have potentially one of his world's first superheroes.

** After Luz sends her remaining teammates away to safety and waiting nearly 2 whole days with no food, water and very little sleep for the perpetrators to come back, they arrive expecting an easy kill. The second All For One user quickly proves them wrong by bringing down the large boy [[SmugSnake Kennedy]] just ordered to murder her first by using her new VibrationManipulation Quirk to make his heart '''explode'''. After absorbing his SuperStrength Quirk, she gains Shigaraki's [[RedEyesTakeWarning red eyes]] and gives a PsychoticSmirk to the now the terrified teenaged killers are having a DeerInTheHeadlights reaction. Luz really are an Otter with a Darkside.

* Throughout chapter 12, the "fight" between Luz and the 20 other Quirk users is '''very''' one-sided in former's favor with only one escaping with her life because Luz let her. As foreshadowed in chapter 8, she rightfully calls them out on killing her new friends and turning into a case of TheHunterBecomesTheHunted. As brutal as it is and not a heroic thing to do, many readers were cheering seeing Luz asserting "Black Air Force Activity" to avenge her fallen comrades.

** During her RoaringRampageOfRevenge, Darlene, the girl that killed Julia, tries to take down Luz the same way she killed her friend with ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice via her AbsurdlySharpClaws. However, Luz is barely slowed down her HealingFactor and using [[LaserGuidedKarma Julia's Vines to break the killer's wrist]]. Taking notes from what [[EvilMentor Shigaraki]] told her about how she can combine Quirks together, she uses her CombatTentacles while using the PlayingWithFire Quirk in conjunction to burn her badly. The EvilRedHead tries to flee after a teammate with SpringCoil limbs comes to her aide but Luz steals his Quirk, kills him, catches the DarkActionGirl with her new Quirk, takes her superpower and proceeds to use the same HeadCrushing with her SuperStrength, effectively avenging Julia's murder.
** By the climax of her GottaKillThemAll spree, Luz has now acquired '''28 Quirks'''. That's 20 in the space of a few minutes. She saves Kennedy, the mastermind of her friends slaughter, for last and proceeds to [[AgonyOfTheFeet stab him the ankles ]] with Spear Fingers to [[YouWillNotEvadeMe prevent him from escaping her wrath]].

** Luz proceeds to go ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill on her final victim. To be clear: after mutating to express those Quirks, Luz's left "arm" is bigger than the entire rest of her body, and is wrapped in thorny vines and metal spikes sticking out of a pile of stitched-together flesh. It's an abomination that wouldn't look out of place on a demon from The Boiling Isles, and looks even more monstrous attached to the teenaged girl.

As she attacks finishes off [[AssholeVictim Kennedy]], she makes it clear he brought his demise on himself and his Quirk isn't worth stealing before crushing him to death, completely averting IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim.

** When Luz suffers a HeroicRROD from having too many Quirks, hears that the 3 soldiers she was just about to fight came here to rescue and her friends, as well have Governor Rodger Maxwell in their custody to answer for his crimes, before she loses consciousness. [[TheCavalry The sane part of humanity is finally here to help the surviving kidnapped kids from their ordeal]].

** Shigaraki also let's his successor know that its possible to travel across TheMultiverse, meaning it won't be too long until Luz reaches The Boiling Isles and possibly explore the My Hero Academia universe.

** When Luz hears about the Wittebanes' plans and their role in their daughter's murder, she is so outraged that she vows to stop them [[GoodIsNotSoft even if it means has take more lives to stop them]].

* In chapter 13, when Shigaraki explains to Luz that her max limit is only 10 Quirks at a time, Luz says 10 Quirks is already a lot. The {{Evil Mentor}}'s response shows she hasn't even ''come'' to her full potential.

* The opening of chapter 14 reveals that Governor Rodger Maxwell has been sentenced to life in prison for his many crimes.

** When Luz suffers a HeroicRROD from having too many Quirks, hears that the 3 soldiers she was just about to fight came here to rescue and her friends, as well have Governor Rodger Maxwell in their custody to answer for his crimes, before she loses consciousness.

---> '''Shigaraki''': ''(BadassArmFold)'' Kid… at my prime, before my nemesis killed me, I had over 1,000 Quirks flowing through my body, with another 1,000 deposited in a mountain of corpses that I could pull from at any moment and time. ''10'' is a drop in an ocean of uselessness.
