Unreliable Narrator: Played with. While Rowley is more honest and open in comparison to Greg, he has the mentality of a child and is always blind to Greg's mistreatment towards him.

comment
Ambiguous Situation: It's not clear if Rowley's grandfather, Bampy, is the same grandfather from Rodrick Rules, due to their differing designs. Mr. Jefferson resembles Rowley's grandfather from Rodrick Rules more than Bampy, but calls Bampy his "dad", although referring to your parents-in-law as if they were your own parents is normal as well.

comment
Absurdly Ineffective Barricade: During their sleepover, Greg turns on an "invisible force field" between his side of the room and Rowley's to keep him out. Said "force field" consists entirely of Greg simply yelling "ZAP!" whenever Rowley tries to cross. Subverted hilariously by the fact that this is enough to keep Rowley out of his side for the entire night.

Ungrateful Bastard: When Rowley shows his pitch for his new book to Greg and thinks they could both be famous together, the latter isn't even proud in the slightest, calling the title "stupid" and hitting Rowley with the page. He even tells Rowley that he could replace him with any moron in his book. In the trailers, Greg tries to tell the audience that Rowley ripped him off and even attempts to discourage the audience from reading the book.

Leaning on the Fourth Wall: On the opening pages before the story, Greg and Rowley make comments about the book. Rowley says that he wrote the book himself, and Greg points to Jeff Kinney's name and asks "Oh yeah, then who's this guy?" After the last page, Greg says that he told the readers the book would be bad.

 Diary of an Awesome Friendly Kid / int_4e351021
comment
The B Grade: Downplayed. Rowley gets an 89% on a math test and is disappointed with himself because he usually gets higher. (Greg, on the other hand, is proud that he got a higher score than usual.) However, what really sets him off is when his teacher learns he helped Greg cheat and is disappointed in him.

Later, Greg stands up for Rowley to get a better grade from an unfair teacher.

Epic Fail: While trying to copy off of Rowley during a math test, Greg copies everything, including Rowley's name. Ms. Beck naturally catches on. While having a No, You-type argument, Greg argues "No You times INFINITY", which Rowley counters with "No you times infinity SQUARED". He thought he won that fight, but then Greg wins with a "No You times infinity squared plus ONE". Rowley concedes.

Good Behavior Points

comment
Good Behavior Points: One anecdote focuses on Greg creating a rewards system for Rowley called "Li'l Goodies" — granting him a point for doing humiliating tasks, with Rowley getting a "fantastic prize" (hidden under a sheet) once he earns 50. Rowley does so, and Greg claims that the points reset at the start of each month, meaning he needs 50 more. Upset, Rowley rips the sheet off the "prize", finding that it's a basket of Greg's dirty laundry. Despite this, Rowley still plans to go for the "even better" prize that's worth 100 Li'l Goodies.

Meanwhile, Greg's opinion of what a good superhero is falls more in line with '90s Anti-Hero.

Many Questions Fallacy: Greg slips Rowley a note asking if he's embarrassed about wetting the bed. Rowley just answers no and Greg has to explain the joke.

The Ditz: Greg changes the context of Rowley's art of Awesome Guy from a Martial Pacifist into a ditzy Failure Hero.

Suspiciously Specific Denial: Any time Rowley claims that he's not in love with Ms. Beck. He could be telling the truth, though, given that he doesn't seem to think that it's necessarily wrong or romantic to admire her personality and like how she smells, although he then says he'd like to buy a sports car and give her a ride every day, and how Amazing Guy has a female nurse friend named Beck...

Sympathetic P.O.V.
 Diary of an Awesome Friendly Kid / int_e7db27c7
comment
Sympathetic P.O.V.: Downplayed. In the original Wimpy Kid series, Greg portrays himself as smarter and cooler than Rowley, painting Rowley as a childish hindrance to Greg's supposedly inevitable fame. In Awesome Friendly Kid, Rowley has new stories to tell where Greg is more obviously a jerk than he seems to be in the Wimpy Kid books. However, even in the older books, it's clear Greg is an Unreliable Narrator and Rowley, for all his nerdiness and naivety, is more popular due to being a Nice Guy — Awesome Friendly Kid just makes it clearer. Greg also comes across as less sympathetic in Awesome Friendly Kid because there's less focus on the Heffley family, so Greg's Middle Child Syndrome and Butt-Monkey status, the main reason he's sympathetic in the original books, is more downplayed.

Brain Bleach: Rowley was mooned by Manny, who seems to treat it as a secret between the two of them. Greg mentions having seen his grandpa naked, citing this as why he's against X-Ray Vision powers. Rowley complains in his diary about having to see Mr. Heffley in his underwear (briefs and shirt) when he comes to scold him and Greg for causing trouble at their sleepover.

Vignette Episode: While the main Diary of a Wimpy Kid books tend to have a main theme or plot, this one is just a series of random journal entries written by Rowley. Downplayed near the end, in which the vignettes get longer and the last half of the book consists of about three stories.

Comically Missing the Point: Having learned about Greg's awful behavior, Rowley's parents tell him that maybe he should find some new friends. Rowley decides that Greg takes up too much of his time for that to be a possibility.

With Friends Like These...: Rowley already showcases Greg's unsupportive and assholish behavior in the book, and yet somehow he still considers Greg to be his best friend in the world.

Dark and Troubled Past: Inverted with Amazing Guy. The reason he's so nice is because he was raised by Good Parents. Greg thinks this is lame.

comment
Not So Similar: While Rowley's diary is made with similar techniques to Greg's (such as depicting characters with similar facial expressions and using CAPITAL WORDS to make emphasis), their completely different mentalities are explored in the book.

Pet the Dog: When Mr. Hardy gives everyone a C (a passing grade) for their final grade, even to Rowley, who was the only one who did the work that Mr. Hardy didn't even look at, Greg stands up for Rowley and says that he deserves a better grade because of that. This is in spite of Greg telling Rowley to just join in on being off-task throughout the semester. It is lessened a bit when Rowley suggests this is payback for Rowley getting Greg out of Tevin's party, but Greg remarks that Rowley has to do a lot more to pay Greg back for this.
