All For Luz

Irony in this story.

Irony

  • The day that Luz was supposed to go to Reality Check Summer Camp is the day of a Mass Super-Empowering Event happening. After being told all her life separate fantasy from reality, the two have now blended together. She feels more than a bit smug about the situation.
  • When she is kidnapped and put in a Deadly Game with other superhuman teenagers, Luz is especially alarmed because, as far as she could tell, everyone else in the room had stronger, better powers than her hands with holes and Aura Vision. Turns out she has the infamous All For One Quirk, making her the most dangerous and lethal combatant of the lot.
  • Its especially darkly ironic that Luz Noceda, The Hero from The Owl House, has inherited the same Quirk as All For One, the Big Bad from My Hero Academia.
    • Not to mention that Luz's Love Interest, Amity Blight, is a One For All wielder (albeit a replica).
  • One of Luz's more frequently used Quirks, "Spear Fingers", the power used by Darlene to kill Julia, her First Friend, and is completely unware of it.
  • In chapter 16, All For One can't help but notice that him actively manipulating Luz gets him subpar results, while allowing her a moments of freedom from his suggestions and manipulations, she is doing what he needed of her to get back to his home world.
  • Tyler believes that All For One to be the Dark Messiah and Satanic Archetype of superhumans, which is why he hired assassins to try and kill her. While this belief doesn't accurately describe Luz Noceda, its certainly on point for Shigaraki as not only is he a Card-Carrying Villain, he also caused the Mass Super-Empowering Event to happen in the first place kicking off the story's events.
  • Chapter 17 reveals Luz recently bought a pair of black airforce shoes of which is also a named the meme “Black Airforce Energy” used to describe the footage of her butchering those campers. The punchline being she has no idea what the phrase means
  • In chapter 23, At the beginning of the chapter, Hunter notes Luz is accidently destroying the town with she more powerful attacks, seeing all of the panicking civilians and aims to stop her before that happens. By the climax he's the one that destroys Gravesfield after he deems It Is Beyond Saving.
  • When first met the Golden Guard, his appearance made Tyler think of him as a holy warrior who was taking him and his wife to heaven for his deeds. Instead, he was bringing him to the Demon Realm, which he saw as a curse. Now, the Wittebanes are trapped here in a world that was filled with the very creatures his family was made to hunt in the 1600s. It was their own personal hell.
  • Despite being a Politically Incorrect Villain, Tyler's main henchmen and assassins are superhumans with quite a bit of diversity to them, which include (but not limited to) a man with gigantism and a genderfluid transporter.

Dramatic Irony

  • When Luz first meets All For One, she asks him if he's a demon. Laughing, he tells her while he has been called that a lot he's just as human as she is. However, his personality is far more monstrous than any live demon in The Owl House universe.
  • In chapter 15, Riley's next target for her to kill is All For One, who, unbeknownst to her, is her little cousin Luz who she just reconnected with. An unaware Luz thinks she's having good day now.
  • Tyler Wittebane hates having to work with Emperor Belos due to believing him to be a witch and wants to kill him personally just for being that, not knowing he’s not only his Living Distant Ancestor but arguably hates witches and demons even more so than his descendants.
  • In chapter 18, Riley believes that most of the other officers didn’t give a shit about All For One or those with superpowers. She's completely unaware that the recently deceased police chief had personal vendetta against the aforementioned superhuman.
  • A more cruel version. Luz pulls a It's Not You, It's My Enemies on Camila for her own safety. Unfortunately, the Arc Villain has just ordered his most brutal assassin to go after her mother out of spite against Luz for not dying earlier than expected and succeeds in murdering the poor woman.
  • In chapter 24, Amity believes that if it wasn’t for All For One experimenting on her family, she could’ve probably lived a far better quality of life. Unbeknownst to her, her mother and father would've been Abusive Parents that would have forced her to end her friendships, unlike in the story.
