What Makes Him A Shonen Villain?[]

- Powerful/Skillful: Due to having Metro Man's powers, he is very powerful.
- Power-Hungry: He takes over metrocity.
- Pursues a Big-End Goal: His goal is to destroy metrocity.
- Arrogant: Tighten often underestimates those he perceives as weak, especially Megamind.
- Cold-Hearted/Ruthless: He almost kills Roxanne just because she rejected him.
- Short-Tempered: Clearly shown when he almost kills Roxanne.
- Laughably Evil: He has a few moments where his stupidity is clearly played for laughs.
- Psychopathic: While he does seem to care about his "Space Step-Mom", he has no qualms about harming others or even throwing his neighbour under a bus.
- Narcissistic: His whole motivation is based on someone rejecting him which is a very egotistical thing to have.
- Sadistic: He clearly enjoys being a villain.
- Freudian Excuse: Hal hasn't accomplished anything, he was already uncaring towards a people people, he has a creepy unhealthy obsession of Roxanne, after obtaining Metro Man's superpower, he became a supervillain.
- Serves as a Foil to the Hero/Protagonist: Megamind is a highly intelligent superhero who was pushed into villainy and takes a lot of responsibility while Tighten is an idiot who refuses to take responsibility and was pushed into heroism.
- Bloodthirsty: Tighten takes pleasure in hurting innocent people, including Roxanne after she rejects him.
- Is a Game Changer: In comparison to the other villains in the film, he pretty much darkens the mood due to how powerful and intimidating he is.
- Is a Secondary-Color Nemesis: He wears an orange outfit.
- Has Black Air Force Energy: He attempts to destroy the city, and clearly does not respect the rights of Roxanne Ritchi.
- Immature: He drew a picture that looks like it was made by a child, and his motive is extremely petty.
