* AllTakeAndNoGive: Humarise would lure desperate and isolated quirkless people with the promises of community, opportunity and support. Then they would isolate their members from their family or friends, force them into diets and curfews and forbid them from leaving. Both Botan and Toshinori joined the group out of desperation only to end up having everything taken from them.

* AscendedExtra: Beros was the Disk One Final Boss with relatively little depth outside of being extremely loyal to Humarise and her physical threat. Here Beros is the missionary that attempts to recruit and later abducts, Izuku. Beros is the cultist Izuku interacts with the most and given a backstory of having a Quirkless mother and indoctrinated into the cult from a young age. A subplot amerges with Izuku finding out about her past from her mother and the promise of helping rescue Beros and Botan from the cult.

* BoomerangBigot: Humarise is a cult of Quirked people hating Quirks and hating themselves for having Quirks to the point of worshipping Quirkless people for not having them. This self-loathing drives them leads to deeming themselves impure like Beros. The some get rid of their quirk with All for One's assistance. The more extreme ones, like Flect Turn seek the annihilation of Quirked people.
* BystanderSyndrome: Zigzagged. Izuku does everything right when he attempts to rescue Aizawa: he makes a loud commotion to draw attention to himself which forces the cultist to abandon their objective of kidnapping Eraserhead and another bystander calls the cops. However, no one intervenes when the cultists decide kidnap Izuku instead.
* CollidingCriminalConspiracies: At first All for One and Humarise were working together with the shared goal of capturing Eraserhead and stealing his Power Nullifier quirk. But they both had different objectives for said Quirk. All for One wanted to keep the Quirk for himself while Humarise wanted All for One to give the quirk to one of their high-ranking members. Only to turn against each other when Humarise kidnaps Izuku and refuse to give him back.

* CovertGroupWithMundaneFront: On the surface Humarise is an international charity and support group for Quirkless people. In actuality, Humarise is a cult that imprisons and brainwashes their members, with politicians and police deep in their pockets.
* {{Cult}}: Humarise is a cult of doomsday conspiracists that fear Quirk Singularity will wipe out humanity except for Quirkless people. The cult worships Quirkless people, especially children, to a fetishistic extent thinking that being around them would purify them. They go as far to kidnap quirkless under the pretense of protecting them from the world.

** A young Toshinori joined the Humarise cult in hopes of finding community and job opportunities after being neglected by foster care system. The cult tried to force him to conform by taking away his exercise equipment, force on him a diet to weaken him, frequently forced unwanted affection onto him and tried to make him give up his dream of being a hero. Toshinori ended up fleeing after they tried punishing him with the Room of Enlightenment and he was rescued by Nana before the cultists could force him back. As All Might, he becomes extremely outspoken against Humanrise, denouncing them as a cult and repeatedly making investigations against them.

* DreamIntro: The story opens a young Toshinori desperate to run away from his captors, wearing only his pajamas, weak from drugs and hurt. He's desperate to get away from his captors, using their reverence of him and taboo of causing physical harm to Quirkless people against them to escape. These captors were promised to be a source of community and support only for it to be a lie. Only for a lifeline in appear in the form of a pro-hero. Toshinori begs her to save him, please don't let them take him. The pro hero promises to save him and he is saved. All of this is implied to be a flashback as it fast-forwards to All Might passing One for All to Izuku.

--> '''Izuku:''' This was exactly the kind of entrepreneurial spirit that Izuku looked for in a fellow prisoner.

* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: Beros deeply loves her mother and laments her quirk preventing her from being around her mother without tainting her. Never realizing the cult deliberately separated them to keep Botan as a reward for their pet assassin and maintain Beros's loyalty to the cult and Botan's compliance. This love becomes pivotal as a postcard Beros sent to her mother leads All Might, All for One and Eraserhead to finding where Izuku had been taken.

* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: Izuku calls Flect Turn out on how his tragic backstory is not that tragic. Flect blames his quirk for all his problems, but he never tried to control his quirk.

* HanlonsRazor: All for One put a ton of resources into hiding Izuku's existence from Humarise such as bribing recruiters to look the other way, using his pet MadScientist to be his son's pediatrician and hiding his son's information on the Quirk Registry. All of it undone by a middle school Bakugou deciding to be a dick to Izuku by signing him up for their mailing list.
* HeroicBystander: When Izuku sees Humarise cultist attempt to kidnap a drugged Eraserhead, he intervenes by attempting to pull the hero away from them, loudly screams and makes a commotion to draw attention. Another bystander calls the cops, which forces the cultists to abandon Eraserhead...only for them to grab Izuku instead.

* HostageMacGuffin: Rody Soul is kidnapped by Humarise in order to force his scientist father, Eddy Soul's compliance after Eddy attempted to help Izuku escape cult headquarters.

** The plot is a parent's worse nightmare: your child is kidnapped by a cult and the police don't take it seriously because they either think he ran away or have been ''[[CorruptCop bought out]]'' by the cultists.
** Botan's story illustrates the sad reality of why people join cults: Botan was a jobless, single mother that couldn't work both due to discrimination and having a child. Botan joined the cult in the hopes of having the support and being able to keep her daughter. Only for the cult to take her daughter away and indoctrinate her into their assassin while Botan is completely isolated as they try to mentally break her.

* KnockingOnHeathensDoor: Humarise constantly harass the Midoriyas with phone calls, pamphlets and missionaries to proselytize Izuku into joining them or have Inko sign up Izuku into their programs. They refuse with Inko threatening to call the police on them. Only for them to escalate into them trying to harass Izuku on the streets.

* LockedOutOfTheLoop: All Might never figures out that Izuku is All for One's son. Due to believing All for One's lies and denial, [[spoiler: All Might believes that Rody Soul is All for One's son. Not even meeting Rody's actual father disabuses All Might of this belief. ]]
* LukeIAmYourFather: [[spoiler: Averted as All for One keeps his identity secret until the end of the fic.]]
* MacGuffinSuperPerson: Eraserhead is initially the target of both All for One and Humarise for his Power Nullifier quirk. All for One wants such a rare and powerful Quirk that it is his only real possible weakness under his arsenal. While Humarise regards it as a unholy holy power that can temporarily bless them with removing their quirks.

--> '''Izuku:''' Why don't you come over here and try, asshole?

* RaceLift: Beros' race was never mentioned in the movie with Humarise being an international terrorist group, not helping matters. Here, Beros is explicitly Japanese due the presence of her mother, Botan.

* SpottingTheThread: When Izuku spots an unconscious Eraserhead being carried into a van, he immediately spots that the people don't look like any of the heroes or sidekicks local to the area. Only to recognize one of them being the cultist that accosted him earlier. Izuku knows that Humarises can't professional heroes so they aren't working with Eraserhead...

* StrugglingSingleMother: Beros' mother, Botan was struggling to find work to support herself due to discrimination and on the verge of having her baby daughter taking away from her. She joined Humarise out of desperation for support.

* TheyCallMeMisterTibbs: Beros and all of Humanrise, never refer Izuku by name. Despite Izuku trying to insist using their name, they insist that he's too special to use his name and call him "Chosen One." As they call Izuku and other Quirkless people that, this illustrates how Humarise dehumanizes them through their worship of Quirkless and try to strip them of their identity.

* PrecisionFStrike: Izuku gives one to Flect.
