Line 6:
* [[Angst What Angst]]: Eiji has no family, job, or ambitions, but he doesn't really attach any importance to those things so it doesn't bug him. {{spoiler|However, he's often haunted by memories of a girl he'd befriended on his travels that [[I Let Gwen Stacy Die|he was unable to save.]]}}
* [[Awesome Music (Sugar Wiki)|Awesome Music]]: The [http://blip.tv/kamen-rider/anything-goes-mv-4410884 theme song]; then again, an awesome theme song seems to be mandatory for a Kamen Rider series.
** #5: "Regret nothing ~Tighten Up~" <ref>A sound-alike pun on "''TaToBa''"; it can be heard during the song.</ref>, the theme song of {{color|red|TTa}}{{color|gold|TTo}}{{color|green|BBa}} Combo.
*** The song is also the default used for the Random Combos that don't have a theme; the TaToBa beats are removed in these cases, of course.
** #6: "Got to keep it real" <ref>A sound-alike pun on ''"GataKiriBa''"; it can be heard during the song.</ref>, the theme song of {{color|green|$GataKiriBa}} Combo.
** #9: "Ride on Right time" <ref>A sound-alike pun on "''GataKiriBa''"; it can be heard during the song.</ref>, the theme song of {{color|gold|$LaToraTah}} Combo.
** #12: "Sun goes up" <ref>A sound-alike pun on ''"RaToraTah''"; it can be heard during the song.</ref>, the theme song of {{color|gray|$SaGoZo}} Combo.
** #20: "Time judged all" <ref>A sound-alike pun on ''"LaToraTah"''; it can be heard during the song.</ref>, the theme song of {{color|red|$TaJaDor}} Combo. <ref>This song is a duet by Eiji and Ankh.</ref>
** #36: "POWER to TEARER" <ref>A sound-alike pun on ''"SaGoZo"''; it can be heard during the song.</ref>, the theme song of {{color|purple|$PuToTyra}} Combo. <ref>This song is a duet by Eiji and Akira Kushida.</ref>
** #38: "Reverse/Re:birth", the theme song of Kamen Rider Birth. <ref>This song is a duet by Date and Gotou.</ref>
** ''Movie War Megamax'': "Shout Out" <ref>A sound-alike pun on ''"SaGoZo"''; it can be heard during the song.</ref>, the theme song of {{color|blue|$ShaUTa}} Combo.
** The "[[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|Combo Change Medley]]." If the Combo songs were awesome alone, listen to all of them together in one package.
** The movie theme song, Te wo Tsunagou, also counts as a Heartwarming Moment. Doubly so for the full orchestra version.
Line 42:
*** T#19: "[http://www.esnips.com/doc/ac534b53-c1c4-4042-8337-1cf7d25ae970/Kamen-Rider-OOO---Enter-the-Can-droids Enter the Can-droids]". A cutely robotic tune for the kids' favourite robot buddies.
** The OOO Scanner managed to find different ways to be catchy with its Combo tunes. By extension, Akira Kushida's background rhythms in the Combo [[Image Song|Image Songs]] as well.

* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Akira Date, due to his rather laid-back behavior and general masculinity. Probably why he was brought back for the final eps.
* [[Epileptic Trees]]: Since the beginning, many people began creating theories about the OOO Driver being a [[Deadly Upgrade]], who the Original OOO was, and how it will effect Eiji, with a popular theory being that Eiji would turn into a Greeed. {{spoiler|Surprisingly, they're correct about the latter, but it's not the OOO Driver that's doing the conversion. That would be the Core Medals inside Eiji.}}
* [[Everybody Remembers the Stripper|Everybody Remembers the Pantsu]]
* [[Fan Nickname]]: "Kamen Rider Traffic Light"<ref>Which makes a bit more sense this side of the Pacific, verbally speaking. In Japan, the kanji "ao" is a bit of a literary conundrum/holdover in that it can be used to mean either "blue" and "green" depending on context usage, hence the go-light in visual mediums is colored as blue, even though real-life lights are green.</ref> and "Kamen Rider [[Wolverine]]", to name a few. [[Image Boards]] also came up with the sobriquet "Kamen Rider Taco Bar", due to his rather Mexican color scheme and the pronunciation of the "To" in "{{color|red|TTa}}{{color|gold|TTo}}{{color|green|BBa}}" sounding like a "Co" when shouted by OOO's belt. Though "Taco Bar" has been declared a [[Forced Meme]].
** "Cakeguy" for Kougami, for very, very obvious reasons.
*** Or more frequently "PuToTyra" due both to his status as a rich and powerful man, and his similarity to Double's Ryubee Sonozaki, who was popularly described as "Like a boss". Perfectly fitting, as it also draws a connection to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cake_Boss this].
Line 68:
** #10, Chiyoko's [[Hot for Teacher|teacher-esque]] outfit, made even better by her sashay and [[Meganekko|glasses]]. Not to mention most of the cosplay to begin with...
** Hina and her love of skirts and short shorts. That girl has legs.
* [[Game Breaker]]: {{color|purple|$PuToTyra}} Combo.
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: In the advertising for the ''[[Kamen Rider Den-O|Cho Den-O Trilogy]]'', Momotaros says of the trilogy's [[Colorful Theme Naming]] "Think of a traffic light!" Now we have OOO, who has himself been nicknamed Kamen Rider Traffic Light.
** Hina is one letter away from another [[Kamen Rider Den O|super strong, backhaired young woman who can beat up a monster singlehandedly.]]
** It's hard not to be reminded of [[Scott Pilgrim]] with the medal motif, and bad guys bursting into coins once beaten.
** "''[[Digimon Tamers|Giru?]]''"
** {{color|red|RRed}}, {{color|blue|BBlue}}, {{color|gold|YYellow}}, {{color|purple|PPurple}}, {{color|Gray|WWhite}} <ref>ShaUTa plays around with the white-gray spectrum, but mostly light.</ref> and {{color|green|GGreen}} monsters, and Rider Forms drawn from their powers? [[Kamen Rider Den-O|Hmm...]]
*** As the [[Image Song]] and ending song sung by the main character and his red demonic partner who is the source of power for the main Kamen Rider's red form, "Time Judged All" is, in concept, not unlike "[[Kamen Rider Den-O|Double Action - Sword Form]]".
** One of the Net Movies for [[Kamen Rider Decade]] involved [[Shin Kamen Rider]] and his [[Imagine Spot]], wondering what it'd be like if his show took off. Episodes 21 and 22 provide a somewhat twisted picture.
Line 83:
** One of those "weird Japanese inventions" often circulated on the 'net involves a device women can use to outwit stalkers, a handbag that unfolds into a vending machine disguise. Which is exactly what the RideVendor does.
*** You know who else was famously disguised as a vending machine? [[Transformers Film Series|Dispensor.]]
** The animals Kazari's Core Medals are based on, {{color|goldenrod|LLion}}, {{color|gold|TTiger}} and {{color|yellow|CCheetah}}, appeared as Mecha in ''[[Juken Sentai Gekiranger]]''.
*** Ditto for Giru's Medals, {{color|purple|PPtera}}, {{color|violet|TTricera}}, and {{color|blueviolet|TTyranno}} for ''[[Bakuryu Sentai Abaranger]]''
** There was quite a bit of negative reaction over RideVendor, the purple form, being designated as the "Ultimate Form" over the already-impressive BGMs (which was touted as such in ''Movie Wars Core''). Fast forward to the finale, and {{spoiler|1=GataKiriBa gets [[The Worf Effect|Worfed]] in favor of LaTah as Eiji and Ankh battle the [[Big Bad]] [[Fridge Brilliance|as one being]].}}
*** There are three possible reasons for this. One, {{spoiler|1=LaTah is the same "type" as Maki, so it probably wasn't as effective as against the desire-based Greeed}}. Two, {{spoiler|a true collaboration between Eiji and Ankh is what the series has been building up to}}. Three, {{spoiler|1=with LaTora out of the list, SaGoZo ''is'' the strongest form OOO has, as well as the ''only'' form available at the point}}.
