Reasons I like Cyberverse #39:
So Megatron is out here giving a speech, and kickass theatrics aside;

I wanna comment on a few things.
He uses the phrase "Till all are one!" Which is usually Optimus's thing. Does this imply that he coined it first? Did Megatron take it from Optimus? Or was this just a phrase that has already existed?
Pls take note of WHO is (was) on his side;

Starscream, Optimus, Soundwave, Arcee, Ratchet, and Shadowstriker. These are all arguably pretty smart bots, and i genuinely wonder what Megatron said to get them on his side.
Addition here, since it's still about Megatron's character;

"Megatron's thirst for power-"
No. Fuck you. Look, I'll say it a million fucking times; Megatron IS the villian in many of these shows (arguably the main villian). But he didn't do this shit for 'oh i want my power level to be over 9000'. No. He did it because of your oppressive government treating him like shit PURELY because he was a miner. I HATE that so many of these shows ignore that. Idk, i just hate that the government isn't brought up in this shit, as it's SO vital to Megatron's progression as a character.
#Reasons I like Cyberverse#s1 ep6#Megatron is My Hero#megatron#i mean let's not forget him tempting Ratchet successfully in tfp#Megatron is just persuasive#and its a trait that's more or less existes in every Megatron to date#and its not a purely bad guy thing#hes just genuinely a mech that can get other's trust#strong/intelligent/an ability to articulate words/AND a vague enough ideology#to get attention YET be able to twist around as he pleases#megatron is just a good character tbh
