A colloquial word used as an adjective or adverb for emphasis. It means 'very big', 'huge', or is used as a positive evaluation in the sense of 'great' or 'awesome'.

'Mega' is a word from colloquial and youth language. It is used to express enthusiasm or emphasis, but should be avoided in formal situations such as exams or official emails.

Your new hairstyle is mega!
'Mega' is invariable, so it is not declined. It can stand as an adverb before an adjective or verb, or as a standalone answer to a question.
Der Film war mega spannend.
The film was mega exciting.
As an intensifier, 'mega' can stand before almost any adjective to intensify its meaning. It works similarly to 'sehr' (very) or 'total' (totally), but is much more informal.
Ich bin mega müde, weil ich die ganze Nacht gelernt habe.
I’m mega tired because I studied all night.
real / really
Echt and mega can colloquially intensify a positive statement. Echt emphasizes that the personal assessment is genuinely meant that way; mega intensifies the degree more strongly or expresses great enthusiasm. Therefore, mega usually sounds more intense than echt.
Das Konzert gestern war mega gut.
The concert yesterday was mega good.
Das Konzert gestern war echt gut.
The concert yesterday was really good.
