!Tropes
* BlackKnight: As his name suggests, Black Baron is essentially the Kamen Rider Baron suit only colored black. Making him a stark contrast to the real Kamen Rider Baron.
* {{Cult}}: Neo Baron is basically one around Shura's twisted interpretation of Kaito's ideals. [[spoiler: He also has connections to an ''actual'' cult, the Black Bodhi Tree]].
* DirtyCoward: Shura attacks Kaito from behind, and [[spoiler:sets a couple of goons on Zack when he realises he's losing. Zack explicitly points out that this, rather than being weak, is why Shura was kicked out of Team Baron]].
* EvilCounterpart: Shura is basically Kaito if Kaito was a true SocialDarwinist.
* EvilKnockoff: As the name makes clear, Black Baron is the Baron suit with black instead of red, fitting symbolism for how Shura is perverting Kaito's ideals.
* FashionableAsymmetry: Black Baron, as with Kaito's Baron armor, has one shoulder pad larger than the other.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: Shura went from a DirtyCoward in a breakdancing team to a brutal gang leader of a fight club [[spoiler: with desires to exterminate potentially hundreds of thousands of people.]]
* HijackedByGanon: [[spoiler:There are a couple of hints that Kugai might be influencing Shura. Aside from explicitly naming the hypothetical recreated Scalar System as the Saver System, the credits of the previous Gaiden show that Shura got his Lockseed from Kugai, and he's seen handing out a Zakuro Lockseed to the winner of a fight as proof of Neo Baron membership. And he's explicitly stated to have connections to the Black Bodhi Tree.]]
* MeaningfulName: Aside from referencing the PaintItBlack treatment, Black Baron is a reference to a fighter ace, like how Kaito's red-colored Baron suit was a reference to ''the'' Red Baron.
* MisaimedFandom: InUniverse, big time. Shura idolizes Kaito and the idea of strength, and carries out a standard SocialDarwinist routine as a result. [[spoiler: As Zack points out, Shura doesn't understand Kaito at all, because Kaito despised the fact that the world itself was a SocialDarwinist and sought power to ''change'' that.]]
* PaintItBlack: Shura's version of the Baron suit has a black undersuit instead of red.
* SocialDarwinist: Shura believes in strength above all. [[spoiler: And he's planning to wipe out the weak.]]
* StealthPun: Just like how Kaito's use of the Banana Lockseed could be used to set up puns about him playing [[AlwaysSecondBest "second banana"]] to Gaim, Shura could be said to be a [[EvilKnockoff "rotten banana"]].
* TransformationTrinket: Shura's Banana Lockseed, which is notable in that while it functions more or less identically to Kaito's, it has no Lockseed number (i.e. the space that normally says L.S.-08 is completely blank).
* WeaponOfChoice:
** BladeOnAStick: Like Baron, Black Baron wields the Banaspear.
