Throughout Heroes, dramatic irony is used to underline themes, as well as to highlight comedic tones.

Brody states that Claire is "dainty". Soon afterwards, she is accidentally tackled, has her neck broken and regenerates.

Charlie goes to the back of the Burnt Toast Diner. As she aggressively slices off the top of a can, Sylar aggressively slices off the top of her head.

Jackie is murdered by Sylar. She dies because she lied and took credit for Claire's heroism in Genesis.

Hiro and Ando find a woman called Hope — immediately after Hiro tells Ando that they "need to find hope" — and because of her hopeful name, they decide to help her. She turns out to be a thief who attempts to kill the duo.

Hana meets Mr. Bennet et al in a children's playground to discuss life and death situations. (The Death of Hana Gitelman, Part 1)
Betty, an obese female generally regarded as ugly, shares her name with a slang term for an attractive female. (Betty)
Betty calls the people at her high school "fakes", all the while creating fake illusions of her own. (Betty, Part 3)
