* SeinfeldIsUnfunny: Initially, ''Kabuto'' was considered a good option as a GatewaySeries to the franchise as a whole, but many seasons afterwards are generally favored more nowadays. While there are still a lot of fans, the various writing issues here and there have caused its reputation to fall slightly.

* RelationshipWritingFumble: Halfway into the series, it's revealed that [[spoiler:Hiyori is a mimic of Tendou's would-be [[LongLostRelative sister]] from when the Worms who killed their parents had mimicked them so perfectly down to their mother's pregnancy]]. But prior to that, they had a lot of ShipTease, and in one of the earlier episodes Yumiko asks [[spoiler:Hiyori]] if Tendou is her boyfriend, which Tendou himself doesn't deny. Furthermore, Tendou's [[TheDulcineaEffect utter devotion to a girl he barely knows]] (who also happens to be his sole motivation with getting involved with [=ZECT=] and the Worms) seems a bit ''too'' intense for someone who's supposed to be [[spoiler:his sister]].

* MemeticBadass: Arguably, Souji Tendou. He's basically the Creator/ChuckNorris of the Heisei Riders. Fittingly enough, his Rider Kick is a RoundhouseKick.
