* All of the interpretations of Odalia being the worst and most of abusive of the Blight parents while Alador is portrayed as being less harsh and just trying his best while also trying to appease his wife in fanworks back in Season 1 becomes very much vindicated once Season 2 airs and it's revealed throughout how horrible Odalia is with her treatment of Amity and her approval of [[spoiler: Belos's genocidal plans.]] While Alador on the other hand, is shown to actually care for his kids and resolves to be a better father to them [[spoiler:while also pulling a HeelFaceTurn in "Clouds On The Horizon", by helping the gang with stopping the Day of Unity.]]

* Adding to that, King is established as a BadassAdorable and Eda's battle partner when they have to face the Warden. He won't back down even when his opponent is much larger and stronger. [[spoiler: It makes it all the more awesome when we learn that King is ''literally'' a child, implied to be even younger than Luz since he hatched eight years before Luz came to the Boiling Isles. King may not be a king of demons, but he is definitely stronger than he looks]].
* In "Once Upon a Swap", King's mind ends up in Luz's body. [[spoiler:It wouldn't be the last time that Luz is inhabited by a Titan]]

* In the beginning of "Covention", Luz is reading a passage from ''The Good Witch Azura'' where the sky is compared to cotton candy of all things. [[spoiler:This also happens to be the first episode that focuses on Luz's relationship with Amity, and cotton candy is the color that Luz uses to describe Amity's hair dye in the episode where they start dating.]]

!!''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse''
HilariousInHindsight in this series.
----
* In "A Lying Witch and a Warden", Luz laments not being able to pull a lever because of her ''weak nerd arms''. Come "Wing It Like Witches", she's able to bridal carry Amity without breaking a sweat.
* Amity angrily demanding to know who and what Luz is in "I Was a Teenage Abomination" becomes even funnier later on when it turns out that a valid answer to that question is "[[spoiler:your future girlfriend]]."
* In "The Intruder", Luz excitedly calls King a prince, before he reminds her that he's a king. Come "Echoes of the Past", and we learn that [[spoiler:Luz was technically correct]].
* Adding to that, King is established as a BadassAdorable and Eda's battle partner when they have to face the Warden. He won't back down even when his opponent is much larger and stronger. [[spoiler: It makes it all the more awesome when we learn that King is ''literally'' a child, implied to be even younger than Luz since he hatched eight years before Luz came to the Boiling Isles. King may not be a king of demons, but he is definitely stronger than he looks]].
* After Season 1, easily the most popular portrayal of the Lumity romance was for Luz to be ridiculously ObliviousToLove despite Amity's best efforts. Let's just say Season 2 didn't go that direction.
* The ''Fanfic/LuzClawthorne'' fic series has shown a few things that were later surprisingly proven correct in Season 2:
** In "Chapter 9: I Ain't Troubled Yet!", Luz questions Principal Bump if his head demon, Frewin, is supposed to act as glasses and help him see. "Hunting Palismen" actually reveals that Frewin really does help him see, as he has no left eye.
** In "Chapter 52: No Dancing Around", Amity decides [[spoiler:to become a wild witch due to not wanting to join the Emperor's Coven (which was Odalia's dream for her) after shaking off all of her mother's influence.]] 2 weeks later, "Reaching Out" aired and she's come to the same decision in the show.
** The second chapter in the series reveals Boscha HasTwoMommies and later, one of them is shown to have been a potionist in her youth. "[[Recap/TheOwlHouseS2E15ThemsTheBreaksKid Them's the Breaks, Kid]]" shows [[https://arianod.tumblr.com/post/681677849207390208/boschas-moms two girls in the potion track sporting traits related to Boscha]].
** Speaking of "Them's the Breaks, Kid", both works reveals Willow's father, Gilbert, studied in the construction track when he was a student; however since the episode aired before Willow's fathers were properly named, in the show Gilbert's the Korean based father while in the fic, he's the African-American based one.
** Hooty demonstrates early on that he has a {{Lockdown}} mode for security reasons, a fact that gets unintentionally confirmed in "Hollow Mind".
** Another example in "Hollow Mind" is the reveal that Hunter was a coven scout before he became the Golden Guard, a fact that was shown in "Chapter 55: Deserve Nothing".
** "Chapter 12: Heart to Heart" shows that Willow's dads taught her a technique for panic attacks, which she canonically demonstrates in "[[Recap/TheOwlHouseS2E18LabyrinthRunners Labyrinth Runners]]".
** "Chapter 56: Going Through Changes" has Kikimora getting demoted for her recent actions involving acting behind the Emperor's back, something that comes to pass in "[[Recap/TheOwlHouseS2E20CloudsOnTheHorizon Clouds on the Horizon]]".
* After watching "[[Recap/TheOwlHouseS2E17EdgeOfTheWorld Edge Of The World]]", "[[Recap/TheOwlHouseS2E8KnockKnockKnockinOnHootysDoor Knock, Knock, Knockin' On Hooty's Door]]" becomes this once you've realized that Hooty has had [[spoiler:a blood sample of Titan's blood]] on him this whole time without even knowing it.
* While King reminds Amity that she started out trying to get [[spoiler:her future girlfriend]] dissected, remember that the first thing Luz did in Amity's direction was blowing a raspberry because her first impression was [[spoiler:her future girlfriend]] bullying Willow.
* The people who wrote crossover fics with ''WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}}'' feel rather vindicated in light of "King's Tide", [[SharedUniverse where it is revealed that the both Luz and Anne live on the same Earth]].
* This isn't the first time Creator/ZenoRobinson has voiced a ChildProdigy [[spoiler: [[Anime/MyHeroAcademia with messy blonde hair and an association with a red-feathered bird who is being coerced into serving as a corrupt government's head enforcer under threat of punishment and who is only the latest in a long line of people to fill that role]].]]
* All of the interpretations of Odalia being the worst and most of abusive of the Blight parents while Alador is portrayed as being less harsh and just trying his best while also trying to appease his wife in fanworks back in Season 1 becomes very much vindicated once Season 2 airs and it's revealed throughout how horrible Odalia is with her treatment of Amity and her approval of [[spoiler: Belos's genocidal plans.]] While Alador on the other hand, is shown to actually care for his kids and resolves to be a better father to them [[spoiler:while also pulling a HeelFaceTurn in "Clouds On The Horizon", by helping the gang with stopping the Day of Unity.]]
* It was popular to depict Emperor Belos and [[WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}} King Andrias]] meeting, due to their apparently similar goals of [[spoiler:using an artifact stolen from the main hero to conquer another universe]]. Both shows eventually revealed that the two actually couldn't be any more different, as [[spoiler:Andrias is a TragicVillain and pawn to a GreaterScopeVillain who ends his series as TheAtoner, while Belos is a racist genocidal witch hunter who is fully in control of his own decisions with no outside influence, and was lying about his goal to "unite the realms" (and never planned to conquer Earth)]]. If anything, Andrias has more in common with Hunter due to his past, while Belos is more like [[spoiler:Andrias' father and abuser, Aldrich]].
* "For the Future" reveals that [[spoiler:Boscha deeply misses Amity and wants to be friends again, though in an unhealthy and obsessive way. This has been depicted in many a fanwork, namely ''Fanfic/TheRavenAndTheOwlet'']].
