Danny Phantom/YMMV: Difference between revisions

** Jack Fenton. Some see him as a [[Bumbling Dad]] who is genuinely funny and with some awesome moments. Others see him as an incredibly irresponsible, racist, violent would-be [[Mad Scientist]] with a skewd sense of morality, whose [[Designated Hero|carelessness had caused the entire plot.]]

** In some extent, Danielle "Dani" Phantom. Part of the fans think she is a [[Canon Sue|Canon]] [[Copy Cat Sue]] with no interesting personnality, other thinks she is an interesting character with underexploited potential.

** That might have been used to represent how no one listens to Tucker.

* [[Canon Fodder]]: Lots, the most famous being Dark Danny's ultimate fate.

* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Clockwork. For a character only appearing in two episodes, he has amassed quite a following.

** Same for Ghost Writer, especially with the fangirls. One episode and there are '''SWARMS''' of fanart of him ''everywhere''. Don't even get me started on [[Evil Is Sexy|Dark Danny]].

** And Desiree as well. Although a bitch, it's sort of justified in that her sultan's lover was an ass (so of course we feel sad for her)--plus, have you ''seen'' that body?...even though it's in 2D?

*** Not to mention Spectra, Skulker, and [[Large Ham|THE BOX GHOST!]]

* [[Fanon]]: A lot of people believe that Paulina's last name is "Sanchez". This is never mentioned anywhere in canon. Also many believe that "James" is Danny's middle name. Also, a number are divided on if Vlad can sense ghosts or not.

** Not to mention many fans under assumption that Ember's song indicates a bad romance that tragically took her life.

** Though a picture exists, Vlad being a smoker has spread like plague-probably because it suits his character.

** On a similar vein, a lot of slash-friendly fans have Vlad and Jack [[Mistaken for Gay]] in college or hint that the [[Noodle Incident|Backwash Incident]] involved slash.

** By the end of the show, Valerie shows she has chops as this too.

* [[Moment of Awesome (Sugar Wiki)|Moment of Awesome]]: Jack gets a [[Rule of Cool|totally awesome]] one in the finale.

** Danny getting his powers back in "Phantom Planet".

** Jack gets another one in "The Million Dollar Ghost" where he single-handedly ''thrashes'' [[Big Bad|Vlad]].

'''Jack:''' That may be, but I'm the idiot who beat you. }}

* [[Nightmare Fuel]]: {{spoiler|Dark Danny just before he kills his human half in "The Ultimate Enemy".}} Actually, the whole episode will suffice. Spectra and Bertrand also qualify.

** This is Nocturn's whole schtick.

** Dannielle{{spoiler|'s entire body melting and Danny collapsing next to the pool of her remains saying he was too late.}}

** The very fact that a ghost dog appears in an episode where a character says they "got rid of the guard dogs." Wonder how they got rid of 'em. Poor dogs. This isn't helped by a shot of apparently abandoned dog houses.

* [[The Scrappy]]: Some fans attribute this to Danielle.

* [[Seasonal Rot]]: Despite the introductions of new friends and foes, the development of new powers, and the return of some fan favorite characters, many felt the third season went through a bit of this due to changing of executives and the very bad writing plots of many episodes ("Urban Jungle" is one of the most prominent examples).

** Don't forget all the "Save Danny Phantom" fanart people drew and sent in to the studios!

* [[Shipping]]: And how!

** [[Launcher of a Thousand Ships]]: Seriously, the fans pair Danny up with everyone...and everything. Many of these pairings have nicknames, such as Pitch Pearl.

*** Strangest might possibly be [[Cargo Ship|Danny x Thermos]]. (Granted the pairing was created as a gag due to the [[Serious Business|craziness of the fandom at the time]]. That didn't stop someone from initiating Rule 34 for this pairing, though...)

** [[Ship-to-Ship Combat]]: The infamous "True-Fan VS Anti-Fan" wars which basically boiled down to "Canon" (Danny/Sam) VS "Fanon" (Danny/Anyone Else) and/or "Heterosexual Pairings" (IE: Danny/Sam, Danny/Valerie) VS "Slash" (Danny/Vlad, Danny/Dash, and even Danny/Himself *Don't ask*).

*** What is even more disturbing, one has ''multiple'' options for the last one.

* [[Squick]]: In-universe. Danny was quite disgusted that two of his enemies had a child.

* [[Too Good to Last]]: Debatable. Some were happy to see the [[Seasonal Rot|third season]] end before it got worse.
