* FormulaBreakingEpisode: Everything about this in comparison to the other SBIG fics. It's a lot more "vanilla" and willing to joke around with ''Homestuck'' fandom memes, and it includes God-Tiering, which ''none'' of GPF's other ''Homestuck'' fan fics do to any of the main player characters (unless you count the ''Coolstuck'' group in ''Sweet Jade and Hella John''). It's also his only story where even ''Karkat and Nepeta'' are victims to his usual case of DemotedToExtra (Nepeta wouldn't be that noteworthy, but seeing her past in ''Sweet Jade and Hella John'' as the most important character, and her future in ''Housestuck'' and ''496'' as seemingly having decent roles...). ''496 Reasons...'' has more in common with ''Housestuck Hurrcain Crconikals'' than this does, to give an example. Then comes ''Act 5 Vs Act 6'' and ''Kids Fight the Zombies'', both of which are a lot closer in tone to the other ''SBIG'' installments in terms of BlackComedy and establishing that no character is truly safe from getting killed off.

You have no idea how badly I wanted to add Chapter 6 (of Journals)'s tropes to this. And now that it's done, I can!

In fact, he toned down on featuring ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' because he ''didn't'' like the newer episodes and did not want to write entire stories based on it.

** Ever wanted to see a nude, buff man with the head of Journal 3 itself? Or Waddles in a more humanoid, also naked body? No? Then be thankful that the events shown at the very beginning of the first chapter are not going to happen, as a deliberate nod to ''Gurren Lagann'' having an introduction that was unlike the direction the story would end up going. On the other hand, the lack of an aged-up Wendy running around in only a single piece of tape on her crotch might disappoint some.

* MsFanservice: Parodied with [=.GIFfany=] -- she's stated to be stacked, has a large ass, doesn't wear a bra, have a large collection of panties, and does not give a crap about going around completely naked. She also has a ''huge'' number of other copies willing to change their appearance to become a sort-of ThemedHarem (in this case, monster girls). The end of chapter 4 has a number of them preparing food in nothing but aprons, while a small group of them takes up the showers.
* RedHerring: The very first chapter of the story introduces Nzyvo, whose name is just Mabel's put in an Atbash cipher. She also looks like Mabel, but DarkerAndEdgier, and she pilots a mecha that Mabel eventually finds the GoodCounterpart to. Towards the end of the first half, she also talks a ''lot'' about finding a certain relative. It sounds a lot like she's some kind of AlternateSelf, right? [[spoiler:Nope. She's a sister. She just looks weird and has these super-abilities because she was a government experiment. There ''isn't'' a "Dipper counterpart" -- the closest would be Pacifica.]]
* RedemptionEqualsSex: Gender-inverted: [[spoiler:Soos is pretty much credited as the one to redeem all of the [=.GIFfany=] copies, and shortly after his (off-screen due to its hour+ long length) speech they all have sex. Rumble and Melody are involved too, except neither of them was really "evil." (Rumble just has a bizarre way of understanding morality.)]]

* ToiletHumor: In chapter 4, Soos legitimately needs to use the bathroom while running away from millions of crazed stalkers after him. While there, the story lingers a bit when Wendy-the-copy (one such stalker) breaks in and he nearly forgets to... clean after himself. The narrator ''notably'' shows some hesitance in describing Soos' actions around that time.

** Pacifica. The moment she appears in the story is near the end of the WhamChapter cliffhanger for the second half/arc. [[spoiler:She's actually a long-lost sister to the Pines ''and'' Nzyvo, being a military project that was eventually adopted by the Northwests.]]
** Nzyvo. [[spoiler:She's the apparent Big Bad, but the end of the first half reveals that she was apparently ''good'' and just trying to save her sister Pacifica. She's another military experiment adopted by another branch of the Northwests, and knows about a mysterious "Typomonster" that needs to have a certain set of rituals done in other to please her.]]

* SpotlightStealingSquad: While it becomes clear that Mabel is intentionally the main protagonist and not Dipper, [=.GIFfany=] and to a lesser extent the three people "connected" to her in some way (Soos, Melody, and Rumble) sucks up a significant amount of screentime despite not even being in the first chapter. (Hell, the first chapter has the distinction of being GPF's ''only'' 100% [=.GIFfany=]-free chapter in any ''Gravity Falls''-centric fan fic as of March 2017.) Chapter 2 is her introduction, 3 has her "brother" battling the gang and 4 -- by ''far'' the longest chapter in the entire first half -- is focused on her redemption and the antics of her copies. Things tone down a bit by chapter 5, which brings more focus on the Dipper and Mabel vs Nzyvo conflict, but she still gets screentime even there. It's quite telling that the fic is tagged as a [=Rumble/.GIFfany/Melody/Soos=] four-way, although that was more-so to both get a "wait, what?" reaction from potential readers and to give a solid idea on where the fic stands pairing-wise.

* SelfDeprecation: Chapter 3 makes note on ''FanFic/RunGifocalypse'', another, not-intentionally poorly written fanwork by Great Pikmin Fan, and points out a number of faults in the story's logic. Such as the [=.GIFfanys=] looking diverse for no real reason when ''Journals'' argues that it would make more sense in-universe that they would all prefer looking identical. Chapter 4 may drop having all [=.GIFfany=] copies look alike, but it tears down the premise further by displaying the copies as being... ''[[{{Yandere}} closer to canon]]'', so to speak.
* SlapstickKnowsNoGender: Starts popping up in this installment as well, slowly but certainly. [=.GIFfany=]'s comical "Road Runner" skidding to a stop when she realizes that her physical form can fly and Melody having her naked butt get scraped against a hot window indicate this.
* StalkerShrine: Professor Leona has a long hallway filled with artwork of Soos. Professor Sonia also has a large collection of songs entirely about how obsessed she is with him.
* {{Stripperiffic}}: Most of the [=.GIFfany=] copies -- their "new" outfits here are a step-up from their relatively modest portayals in ''run:gifocalypse''. Especially notable with Dove, who goes from a full militant suit to wearing nothing but three bandaids that apparently don't even fully cover what they're supposed to.
* SwiperNoSwiping: [[spoiler:Soos gets the [=.GIFfany=] copies to stop obsessing over him and see him as a genuine person to go out with simply by giving them a speech. Unlike Dipper with Gideon, this process takes him ''roughly an hour''.]]

** Chapter 4 is by and large a dig at harems and pairing heroic characters with villainous characters.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Professor Eve of the post-reforming [=.GIFfany=] copies, who is blatantly built up as an "exception" that is a bit late to learning Soos's lessons on being friends. As of chapter 4, the worst she does could be considered a prank -- she just destroys Melody and Rumble's clothing so that they'll have to get home in the nude.
* UnwantedHarem: Soos had one of over four million [=.GIFfanys=] in chapter 4. [[spoiler:They remain a "harem," but are no longer "unwanted," after he talks some sense into them.]]
* WhamEpisode: Chapter 4. [[spoiler:Nzyvo ditches her whole "band of villains" schtick entirely as the Shape Shifter dies, Gideon quits and leaves, and Rumble, [=.GIFfany=], and the Summerween Trickster all end up being "redeemed" and eventually join the Mystery Shack group. The Trickster quickly gets into a relationship with Stan, while the two video game characters end up getting intoa polygamous relationship with Soos and Melody. The chapter ends with Nzyvo sending a non-lethal blast to the Mystery Shack and challenging them all to the "final battle."]]
* WholePlotReference: There are a number of parallels starting at the end of chapter 2 between Mabel's journey with Lagann and... well, ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'' itself.
* YouAreNumberSix: The Journals are simply referred to the same names as they would when not alive -- "Journal 2," "Journal 3," etc. [=.GIFfany=] copies alternate between nicknames and numbers, although the one from canon is usually called "[=.GIFfany=] #9" as she refused to give herself a nickname.
