Engineered Heroics | |
Megamind Rules! / int_2200d9ec | comment |
Engineered Heroics: In "Megamind vs. Dude Monkey", it's revealed that the titular Dude Monkey deliberately staged crimes with an associate to solve so he looked good in front of the cameras. When he goes up against Lord Nighty-Knight, he is completely helpless. The final episode of the first season has Machiavillain swooping in to save Metro City from an approaching asteroid that he caused to begin with, while manipulating Megamind into failing to do so at every step of the way. | |

Chekhov's Gun: Megamind’s binky was a brief gag in the first movie, whereas here, it’s a vital part of the Evil Plan concocted by the Big Bad, being revealed as an immense power source. | |

Create Your Own Villain | |
Megamind Rules! / int_326a44a1 | comment |
Create Your Own Villain: In Episode 2, Megamind and Chum accidentally turn the kindly Mr. Donut into a supervillain named Dr. Glazer Donut after Megamind accidentally knocks him into a vat of glaze, which gets a doctor’s stethoscope stuck to him, gets a laser gun stuck to Donut's arm (causing him to unintentionally rob a bank and get amnesia), and leaves him in a warehouse, causing him to become the leader of the Go Fish Gang. Ironically, the two were trying to prevent him from becoming a supervillain. In Episode 3, Chum accidentally sprays a cockroach with intelligence-enhancing spray (instead of the intended bug spray), causing it to become the sapient Rochelle, and try to take over the world with an army of cockroaches. | |

Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: In episode 3, Megamind reveals he has a fear of roaches, due to a trauma in his childhood from a pillow made of a bag of discarded ham sandwiches attracting every roach in the jail onto him. | |

Oblivious Guilt Slinging: After accidentally giving Megamind's prized binkie to Machiavillain, Keiko returns to the base to find Megamind, Roxanne, and Chum hosting a birthday party for her with a massive cake and an official hero outfit as a gift. Given that she'd just betrayed Megamind's trust in the worst way possible, she's distraught and has to exit before she breaks down. | |

Ageless Birthday Episode: "A Cake for Keiko" takes place on Keiko's birthday, but no specific age is given. The closest indicator to her age is in the "Doom Syndicate'' movie, which states that she is in middle school. | |

Destructive Saviour | |
Megamind Rules! / int_aa8940ee | comment |
Destructive Saviour: Megamind's methods tend to be extremely destructive and often result in a ton of collateral damage. It's pointed out in Episode 4 that Megamind blew up a parking garage (destroying at least a thousand cars in the process) to destroy one getaway car. | |

Retcon | |
Megamind Rules! / int_b2280b66 | comment |
Retcon: The prologue of the original film showed that Megamind was a genius from a young age, and that his villainous, troublemaking habits were the result of him growing up in a prison and being raised by the inmates. The series reveals that Megamind had to study and graduate from Villain School, where he was mentored by another highly intellectual bad guy named Machiavillain, who claims to have taught Megamind "everything he knows" about villainy. | |

Continuity Snarl | |
Megamind Rules! / int_df582b0b | comment |
Continuity Snarl: Zig-zagged. This show continues on the Retcon of the sequel film by continuing to use the Doom Syndicate and Machiavillain, which are contradictory to Megamind's established backstory of having been an evil genius since he was raised by inmates in jail and learning how to be a supervillain as a result of rejection from society. Despite this, the show doesn't completely invalidate the first film, even making a reference to Megamind's blue binky in the first film, which turns out to be a source of power this entire time. | |

Meaningful Rename: Minion's new name, 'Ol Chum, doubles as a reference to shark chow - fitting him being a fish - and Megamind now treating him as a friend and equal instead of a mere underling. | |
