In English he through technicality he is voiced by Frank Welker in the USA Cartoon, Garry Chalk in Beast Wars, and Rick Thomas in the Omni-Productions Dub of the Headmasters Anime while he had no English actor for the Robot Masters Anime since it was not dubbed in English.
His Evil Ranking[]
Debated Validations[]
- The Japanese Generation One timeline is a massive train-wreck of an continuity due to many continuity errors and plot holes which was explained in-universe by Ask Vector Prime due to it being unstable reality. So some of his acts may or may not be canon.
- While the events of Robotmasters are confirmed canon it is not stated if it is the Anime, Manga or even both versions played out.
What Makes Him Heinous?[]
In General[]
- While he did do heroic acts prior to his redemption, they were all out of pragmatism but however since he redeemed himself they can considered genuine now.
- While he did redeem himself and felt remorse for some of his crimes, he didn’t feel remorse for all of them such as abusing his troops such as Starscream to name the few.
- He committed the exact same crimes as his US counterpart up to the events of Season 3 before his shared history with his US version diverged when the Rebirth was ignored and went with the Headmasters and the original Japanese Media.
- While he doesn't appear in Masterforce, Victory or Zone due to him being killed in Headmasters, his actions would later has consequences that had Scoroponok, Devil Z, Deathsaurus and Violen Jiger continuing his war would make him indirectly responsible for their crimes.
- Despite how jacked up high the heinous standard of the Japanese Generation One Continuity is and despite having very high resources at his disposal, Megatron stands out for causing the Great War which gives him a very high kill count, enslaved multiple races, having nearly the same crimes as his US Cartoon version and for nearly destroying and recreating the Multiverse allows him to pass the heinous standard and stand out from the many other villains.

- He also caused the events of Car Robots where Devil Gigatron's Predacons would cause trouble before being defeated and while some redeemed including Gigatron himself some such as Scourge, the Commandos and Dark T-AI did not.
What Makes Him Inconsistent?[]
- Unlike his USA Cartoon counterpart, he laid down arms and made peace with Optimus Prime and formed the Cybertronian Alliance. And while he did dissolve it later on, it was due to his friend Kiloton being killed and did it to protect his Decepticons and believe only true peace can be through his rule making him gave an good enough excuse to make him tragic and an genuine extremist.
- He later reforms it anyways and felt remorse for some of his actions though not all of them where he builds a better future with Optimus Prime and the Autobots with the humans.
- He cares for his Decepticons and while was less affable at first, he became more affable to others such as Legends World Megatron, Armada Megatron, and even former enemies such as Optimus Prime and humans such as Spike Witwicky. He also truly cared for Kiloton for kindness and was gravely upsetted by his death to swear none of his men will he harmed
- He fully redeems himself where while originally trying to conquer the Legends World, he dropped it and decided to protect instead where he becomes a benevolent protector and ruler of it even saving it’s people when Scorponok and Devil Z destroyed it and manage to order an evacuation in time. He even gave up his life to stop an second Dark Nova and after being revived he truly build a better future for Optimus Prime.
- It means leaving Golden Disk for Predacon Megatron to find was likely due to him forgetting about it’s secret message and didn't know someone would find it, likely because of the loose continuity of the Japanese Continuity.
- He sheds all of his corruptions in Generation Selects where he saved the Multiverse from his 2010 self and became part of the Primus Vangard to protect the Predecessor World from harm until the birth of the main universe.
- Some of his outbursts in the Legends Manga were all Heating-Up Periods since he was influenced by Mindwipe and Devil Z in different occasions and his act of driving humanity from Earth due to his rampage being due to him corrupted by Unicron's energy before being cleansed by Lio Convoy giving him moral agency issues.
Trivia[]
- His USA Cartoon Counterpart ironically also used to be Inconsistently Heinous believing at the time he possessed some redeeming qualities and had too many detracting comedic moments from his villainy until it was pointed out he lost all of his redeeming qualities and all of comedic moments don't detract him as they show how evil he is or are played for satisfaction while allowed him to be voted in Pure Evil.
- His version alongside his IDW, Cyberverse, One versions are the only versions of Megatron to be both Inconsistently Heinous and Admirable.
- Before his redemption in Legends and Selects Megatron would've still been Inconsistently Heinous anyways since he was On & Off and had genuine extremist qualities would prevent him from being PE or NPE.
