MegaOp
MegaOp is the slash ship between Megatron and Optimus Prime.

Canon
Megatron and Optimus have been enemies in every adaptation of the Transformers franchise. Ever since it's first series. Various series will often change what their relationship is. Some will only have them be enemies and not know each other before becoming leaders of the Decepticons and Autobots. Others will have them be old friends adding a bit more tragedy to their fights.

Fanon
MegaOp is one of the most popular and well known ships within and outside of the Transformers fandom. The ship is most often considered the rival of MegaStar. The ship is a classic enemies to lovers ship, although different fans will add their own twists and interpretations of their relationship.

Those that ship the two from the Prime series, believe that the two give off more of a "divorced energy" during the series. Many felt that the two being friends who used to be on the same side before Megatron started the Decepticons adds to this idea. Prime shippers tend to write fic of the two before the events of the series and play into the backstory. Depicting their relationship from when Optimus was Orion Pax and the two were fighting for the same idea. There tends to be a lot of angst in these fics.

On AO3, MegaOp is the most written ship for both Megatron and Optimus Prime. It is also the sixth most written ship in the Tranformers Generation One tag, the fifth most written ship in the The Transformers (IDW Generation One) tag, the fourth most written in the Transfromers (Bay Movies) tag, the second most written in the Transformers: Prime and Transformers - All Media Types tags and the most written in the Transformers Animated (2007) tag.
