* A weakness the story has is not seeming to realize how introducing superheroes battling monsters and villains changes the narrative. For instance, like in ''Ever After High'', Wonderland is under a curse and its people can't go back. However by making Lizzie's boyfriend a Kamen Rider, ''Knights of the Otherworld'' gives the Wonderlandians a powerful champion who travels to another world all the time to fight evil. Who's friends with a legendary wizard and an army of other powerful champions. Even when Darren shows he has the power to '''pull the narrators down to the level of reality everyone else occupies''' if he wants to (and with how common a hero breaking a curse is as fairytale plots go anyway), the story doesn't even suggest asking the Knights to look into helping with this problem for the longest time.

* A big plot motivator for the early part of the story is the knights trying to save their girlfriends from living out their parents' destinies, to the point of Arthur threatening Headmaster Grimm with his Rider powers on Legacy Day. Then it spends the next two chapters having the knights meet their girlfriends' parents, practically all of whom are happy, successful and well-adjusted royalty. [[note]] Meeshell's mom, from ''Literature/TheLittleMermaid'', is still alive, got the prince after all, and has her voice back too. Ginger's mom, the witch from ''Literature/HanselAndGretel'', didn't get burned alive in her own oven. Etc. The only exception is Raven's mom, who was originally the setting's BigBad. [[/note]] It's commendable the knights want to save their loved ones from having to go through scary stuff, but it turns into a fair bit of {{Narm}} when they're determined to save their girlfriends from their parents' destinies, but those parents are shown to be doing extremely well. A lot better than you'd probably think if you actually read some of their stories.
