* VillainHasAPoint: When Luz claims she'll never use her PowerParasite Quirk no matter what, All For One points out that the AddictiveMagic that comes with it could drive her to attack people, including her new friends, in a fugue to satisfy her urge and could destroy her new friendships. Luz notes that could ''very well'' be a possibility.

* MentalWorld: Shigaraki resides in Luz's dreamscape after his death at All Might's hands in his own world around the same time as the MassSuperEmpoweringEvent. He refers to it as the "Vestige World". Luz is ''not'' at all happy to have the spirit of a CardCarryingVillain in her head that can drag her here anytime she falls asleep.
* TheMultiverse: All For One explains to Luz that the multiverse theory is a real thing and its not just [[WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse her world]] and [[Manga/MyHeroAcademia his world]] that exist, though theirs are parallel and linked to each other. He notes that their are various off-shoots of their respective universes, all intermingled into one another. In short, there isn't just one big universe, but multiple, all of which are interlinked in someway; some with small changes such as drastic as UsefulNotes/WorldWarII being won in the Axis Powers' court, to something as small as Luz not waking up at 7:30 AM on the day of which she was meant to go to [[ImaginationDestroyer Reality Check Summer Camp]], and instead woke up a minute earlier than that. A small change, but drastic enough to warrant another universe being created.

* SuperpowerLottery: The All For One Quirk can steal Quirks from others, dead or alive, and wield them as their own. Luz could also combine the Quirks she has for stronger attacks. She can also give the Quirks to others. As Shigaraki explains, in a world where EveryoneIsASuper, the one who can steal powers and give them to other people is the king.

* {{Irony}}: When Luz first meets [[EnemyWithin 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 [[HumansAreTheRealMonsters personality]] is far more monstrous than any live demon in ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'' universe.

* HerosEvilPredecessor: Luz is the second holder of the [[PowerParasite All For One Quirk]], who has a ''much'' stronger moral compass than the previous one. Unfortunately, the Quirk also comes with [[EvilMentor Shigaraki's]] spirit who intends to CorruptTheCutie.

!S1 - Ep 5: The First
----
With the start of the 2nd Story Arc, Luz meets her predecessor of her Quirk in the "Vestige World".
----
!!This chapter contains examples of:
* AddictiveMagic: All For One ''claims'' that his Quirk gives the bearer an inherent addiction to stealing Quirks, but it's implied that he is lying to encourage her to start gaining Quirks, attributing to the Quirk something inherent to ''him'', or both.
* BadPowersBadPeople: Unlike Luz, Shigaraki plays this straight. The ability to steal powers from people and forcefully implant them into others is about as villainous as it sounds.
* BadPowersGoodPeople: Being a PowerParasite isn't usually a power that you would associate with a NiceGirl like Luz, is it?
* BadassInANiceSuit: All For One, his world's oldest and the most powerful Super Villain, is never seen without an impeccable black business suit in Luz's mindscape. She notes how it's almost like a metaphor, how his appearance and reputation projects the image as if he were seemingly spotless.
* ObviouslyEvil: Before Luz even said 2 words to Shigaraki, he set off her "Warning: This man is clearly EVIL" alarm the moment she lays eyes on the scary-looking man with a SlasherSmile.
* ManipulativeBastard: A specialty of All For One's who manipulates people and events around him without ever getting directly involved. Luz accuses Shigaraki of being this from the beginning and she's not wrong, forcing him to be more subtle with a MoreThanMindControl and VillainHasAPoint approach.
* MeaningfulName: The story gives All For One the full name of Shigaraki Rikitasu, meaning "A multitude of splendid powers of death", which is quite fitting for a man with PowerParasite abilities who is a dangerous CardCarryingVillain.
* NamedByAdaptation: ''All For Luz'' gives All For One "Rikitasu" as his first name
* PerpetualSmiler: Shigaraki's habit of this gives CreepyUncle vibes to Luz. (Ironically that's one the few crimes he's NOT guilty of).
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Shigaraki has these and Luz can tell he is a dangerous character.
* SlasherSmile: Shigaraki constantly cracking wide, toothy grins whenever he's getting particularly emotionally worked up, smug, or satisfied with his results, which helps sell to Luz when they first meet there's something ''off'' about him.
* SlouchOfVillainy: All For One does this on his chair in the MentalWorld in his EstablishingCharacterMoment to Luz. She notes he acts like a king on his throne looking down on a peasant.
* UnreliableExpositor: It's made clear that Luz should take anything that All For One says with a grain of salt. For example, he claims that his Quirk is unique in TheMultiverse, but even disregarding the Nine incident his plan canonically involved copying his Quirk and passing the original on to Tomura, which would have been made impossible to even ''attempt'' by this if what he's saying is true, and his brother having a similar Quirk that would become One For All proves that the All For One Quirk isn't an exception to Quirks having a genetic basis. He also claims that his Quirk comes with [[AddictiveMagic a built-in craving to steal Quirks]], but it's entirely possible that he's just trying to push Luz into starting to steal powers.
