* TheSocialDarwinist: [[spoiler: Parad]], though not to the extent of Kuroto...as he, [[ItMakesSenseInContext in his mind anyway]], has [[KillingInSelfDefense way more justifiable reasons]] [[GuiltFreeExterminationWar for having this mindset]].

* AntiVillain: Vaguely implied with Parad (and the Bugsters in general) at the end of the Episode. He states that [[spoiler: The Bugsters' antagonism toward Humanity is partly programming and partly self-defense; as "Bugster lives are still lives]]."

* KickTheDog: While it's mostly played for laughs, [[spoiler:it's very clear that Poppy is having fun thrashing Emu and Taiga like no one's business. And after the fight, she even [[{{Troll}} Trolls]] Emu by gazing at his face and flicks it before leaving playfully with a cutesy "bye bye".]]

* {{Foreshadowing}}: Poppy's Level X appears to have red eyes in her first appearance. [[spoiler:[[{{Deprogram}} Two episodes later...]]]]

* PetTheDog: [[spoiler: As Secretary Hinata is being hounded by all sides by the press, after hearing that Emu and Hiiro have both chosen to fight the Bugsters despite his cease and desist earlier in the episode, he chooses to be honest about why the Ministry of Health chose to do a mass recall on Kamen Rider Chronicle and gives a rousing speech on how they have Doctors who are ready and willing to fight the Bugsters in order to save lives.]]

* KickTheDog: While it's mostly played for laughs, [[spoiler:it's very clear that Poppy is having fun thrashing Emu and Taiga like no one's business. And after the fight, she even [[{{Troll}} Trolls]] Emu's by gazing at his face and flicks it before leaving playfully with a cutesy "bye bye".]]

* KickTheDog: A rather comical one, but [[spoiler:Poppy playfully teases Emu by gazing at him and flicks his face before leaving]].
