* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Fourze's boasted a ''huge'' amount of named characters in the Kamen Rider universe, so it's no exception that many of them will come up sooner or later. Plus we also have two Showa Riders, five Imagins and the [=DenLiner=] crew making appearances. There is already ''50'' characters as of the first Intermission.
** And in the other fics below, more and ''more'' characters are named and introduced.

* AdultFear: Many of the stories deal with threatening situations.
** In ''Horseshoes and Hand Grenades'', your grandson has died and his friends have no memories of his resurrection. [[spoiler: Your friend gets brainwashed and you can't stop it. You killed off and resurrected as brainwashed soldiers, and you have no choice but to kill off your own friend.]]
** In ''Month of Sundays'': [[spoiler: Takashi saw his son, Teruhiko, kidnapped in front of your eyes and becomes freaked out as he has no idea what is going on, while Teruhiko is being given Cosmic Energy injections. Damballa has been trying to search for his grandson that he separated from and is willing to do ''anything'' to bring him back.]]
** ''[=SplitxEnd=]'': [[spoiler: JK was traumatized by seeing his little sister killed off ''right in front of his eyes'' by TakingTheBullet. Yayoi was paralyzed to do anything to save Haruto and blames herself for it.]]

* AdultFear: Your child died without you knowing how, then was resurrected by an ancient Serpent to enact revenge. There are other moments shown throughout, though.

* AndNowForSomethingCompletelyDifferent: Forbidden Fruit takes place in Zaname City and (supposedly) has no other relationship to any of the other stories. [[spoiler: It has a lot of scenes of guys having sex though....]]

The series is currently being written by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/702830/Green-Phantom-Queen Green Phantom Queen]] (who is also a troper that goes by the name of Camilla) completed with the main story completed at 28 chapters (plus three intermissions). It can be read [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8719616/1/Horseshoes-and-Hand-grenades here]]. The stories' biggest strengths is the focus and backstories on all the characters in the Kamen Rider Fourze mythos (big and small), the development of Gentaro becoming an evil, malicious character through the influence of Ophiuchus, and the consequences of one's actions. Moreover, the author has also added the combined strength of [[Series/KamenRiderAmazon three]] [[Series/KamenRiderV3 different]] [[Series/KamenRiderDenO Kamen Riders]] to even the playing field and more are destined to come as the story unravels.

* RealityEnsues: [[spoiler: Yayoi teleports herself to the Narumi Detective Agency to fight Damballa all with some new swords. Unfortunately, Damballa is a very old Serpent and she's a college student who just got the swords, thus Damballa drags her down to the ground with the [[GreenThumb Greensleeves]] spell and makes her attack useless.]]

'''''Horseshoes and Hand Grenades''''' is a collection of ''Series/KamenRiderFourze'' {{Alternate Universe Fic}}s. Taking place near the climax of the Aries Zodiarts arc, it starts with one simple idea. What would've happened if Gentaro wasn't revived by the Cosmic Switch? What if something else revived him, and what if said something was evil? From [[ForWantOfANail this]], the world of Fourze has gone downhill. With a being known as Ophiuchus involved in Gentaro's resurrection and FaceHeelTurn, all factions involved in the plot change, and some not for the better. The Kamen Rider Club have to live with the fact that they caused this whole mess to happen, the bad guys have to resort to a new plan now that Gentaro has derailed theirs, and Ryusei is going to have to go through hell thanks to his decision to kill Gentaro.

* AuthorAppeal: The author likes music as some of the stories are titled after a band (Imagine Dragons and The Birthday Massacre), song (Summertime Sadness, Another Me), or album (Confessions on a Dance Floor) and titles there will be TitledAfterTheSong. She also likes ''Theater/RosencrantzAndGuildensternAreDead'' given how it's been referenced a few times, and the boys who were with Mei back in episode 31 of Fourze are named Ros and Guil.
