* SchoolStudyMedia: Lu's stories and essays are widely taught in schools across China; it is virtually guaranteed that if you go to school in China, you will read many of his works, as he is considered a fundamental writer of modern Chinese literature.
* WriteWhatYouKnow: Many of his stories are autobiographical and are accounts of events that he witnessed. Lu also included depictions of medicine and science in some of his stories, which is not surprising given that he had studied medicine in Japan, but quit before finishing his education to deliver "spiritual medicine" to the Chinese people through literature.

* CantGetAwayWithNuthin: Ah Q gets caught virtually every time he commits a crime, whether it's pretending to be related to a prominent family, stealing, fighting, or participating in a riot.
* CrapsackWorld: Almost all of his stories take place in settings filled with poverty, injustice, characters who are TooDumbToLive, opportunists, criminals, vagrants, and other scumbags.
* DirtyCoward: Ah-Q, a vagabond who Lu intended to serve as a representation of China at the time.
* DownerEnding: Occurs frequently, notably in stories like "The True Story of Ah Q", "Diary of a Madman", and "Kong Yiji".
* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: The titular protagonist of the short story "Kong Yiji" is always trying to pass the government exams to become a scholar, but never succeeds.
* HumansAreBastards: Characters in his stories are frequently heartless and greedy. Even protagonists are not very likable.
