- Author's Saving Throw: Retroactively following the finale of Beast Machines. By showing Cybertronians as purely Mechanical Lifeforms millennia after Beast Machines, the show forced everyone to accept that one day, Cybertron's technorganic state would be undone, something that a 2019 manga finally showed.
- Common Knowledge: It's a misconception, one perpetuated by later adaptations showing the casts as contemporaries, that the BWII Maximals come from the same time as the Beast Wars cast. They actually come from millennia afterwards.
- Newer Than They Think: This was the first piece of media to show Cybertronians taking on new alternate modes by projecting a beam from their optics.
- Never Live It Down: Like Transformers: The Headmasters before it, Beast Wars II introduced a lot of very popular Transformers characters and lore and could be surprisingly dark at times. And like The Headmasters, BWII's overly comedic aspects causes Western audiences to view it as just as kiddie comedy show that tries too hard.
- Values Dissonance: The Jointrons are nothing but Mexican stereotypes.
