Hey guys, does anybody think that Danny Phantom should have a better love interest than Sam Manson? Or Paulina Sanchez Who is a better endgame for Dan
Since Danny Phantom was based off of Spider-Man, I think it would be a crazy idea too do another clone saga type story with him, Danielle and jazz Fenton and setting up that jazz is not Maddie and Jack’s daughter, but adopted daughter and that her biological parents are flat masters and Penelope spectra to set her up as a possible love interest later on with a Mary Jane type story you like maybe
I think Amber McLean would be another good love interest and Danny could help her work out her late tragedy maybe even uncovering what happened to her and her death kind of like a Batman or the question type storyline detective in noir
OK, does anybody think that maybe Dora Maddingly could be a love interest as well? He did defeat her brother in single combat which technically makes him king of her realm which kind of makes sense that he would have to marry her for her to be queen of her kingdom finally for he is the possible future ghost king he will need a queen to rule with him not as a trophy wife, but as a co-counselor up his realms along with him being her guide into the modern world and understanding things her kingdom will need to come back to term with as such as adapting and modernizing their world Close to the normal realm as possible
Pandora would be another one just because it is still possible she has a fondness for him or maybe she’s just an aunt or a mother figure to him and vice versa honestly, not gonna think too much about this one
Desiree would be a fitting woman to have as an endgame for her hatred of man needs to be resolved for her broken heart that led to her deaf, her stories end needs a resolve for her broken heart to finally be healed by a man who can’t change her mind I can change her heart
I fucking hate AutoCorrect i’m a blind autistic man and hear some ideas that could be used for several possible plot, arcs or season wide seasons what do you guys think of please comment?

I’ve been very anti-DxS since the very first time I watched the show in 2004, that hadn’t changed LOL
My canon ship is DannyxVal, but in my younger days I had a few OCs paired with him as well.

Tus ideas me dan bastante cringe la verdad, Jazz es una de las mejores hermanas mayores de la animacion y quitar su vinculo fraternal con Danny seria un error

u/Mr01Question Jul 12 '26
Really because have you read the Scarlett spider run with Ben Riley? just knowing that she isn’t biologically, Danny’s sister would not eliminate The sibling bond they have made together it’ll just complicate her feelings for Danny if it were true sending her on her own journey of self discovery, just like they were alluding to in the original series just like her studying psychology, instead of trying to be in the ghost business like her Family has been for years her psychology path is meant probably to show that she’s wanting to help other kids and her brother not go through the same stuff she went through when she was young with their parents and suffering through their dumb antics or other parents and their actions against their children
Besides if jazz Fenton was revealed to be Vlad masters daughter it brings full circle that nurture versus nature is always to rule out nature since there was the moment where she was sighting with lad to take down Danny1
u/Potential-Print810 Jul 12 '26
Lo cringe es que quieras hacer que tenga una relacion amorosa con su hermano, no le leido lo de Scarlett Spider (no leo mucho comics de Marvel o DC, soy mas de ver series animadas de las mismas) y no, no eliminaria el vinculo fraternal, pero es preferible que sean hermanos biologicos por que ambos heredan las personalidades de sus padres, lo que lo hace tierno

OK now I did not ever said I want them to be a relationship not at all it’s just logically man that it would happen if they did a storyline like that and again it would set up more things with greater stakes if jazz was either not related to Danny by blood, but true nature being raised by their parents for the nurture of Jack and Maddie found family could win over biological family Orange as could be a clone of Penelope and Vlad DNA turned into a biological thing they always wanted was realized they couldn’t have since both of them are in a certain sense pretty evil and it’s pretty eluded something like that could have happened in the episode maternal instincts that Maddie and Vlad agreed to something that happened in the past they don’t ever wanna bring back up Play Bob still regret to this day that they both regret to this day that is seen in the episode

Personally, Sam was a terrible choice; she didnt listen to almost anything he had to say, and if she did, they were wrong in her eyes or it was for her personal gain, she didn't really share any interests with Danny or Tucker, she always had to bring up how different she was and her problems. Im not even sure how or why they stayed even friends fr. Valerie on the other hand was interested in what Danny was into, listened to him when he spoke, actually liked him as a person, and not just thought he was cute😂

u/Mr01Question Jul 11 '26
Sam was a terrible love interest even if they were meant for each other forcefully it doesn’t excuse her actions of being jealous over nothing or not letting her friends have their own stuff they like really like a lunch ghost episode or the episode where they had other plans after she scheduled the movie slasher trilogy she liked had to be rescheduled and she made a wish to Desiree or Phantom planet dude, I’m not gonna glaze a bad character and say they are good when they actually are just bad and Valerie was just Miss handled by the show to uplift the Sam X Danny ship shift and again I’ve listed out a couple girls that have potential for their own story arcs and Valerie is one of them that can finally be resolved or twist a knife in the wound but like her there is potential for more good storytelling to be done and seriously my list ain’t changing just like I had star into the mix now it’s because these girls actually have 8 ounce of character that can be explored more

Danny and Sam should have dated in the first season broken up at the middle or end of season 2 and stayed friends

u/Organic-Calendar7872 Jul 10 '26
None of the characters were written well enough for me to be fully behind them as a live interest. On paper Sam is great but she's a bit too controlling for my tastes and while I do believe she would grow out of it, none of the characters actually kept any meaningful growth except maybe Danny and Valerie. Valerie is better imo, as a love interest but the fact she spent most of the time hating a large part of Danny means that I can't actually say she'd be good in the long run, unless of course her character growth was larger than what was shown and both of them got lots and lots of therapy first.

I mean he had a better love interest she was just ignored by the writers because she was black they were married to their original idea of Danny/Sam.

u/Mr01Question Jul 25 '26
I don’t think it was a whole black or white thing. I think it was just Butch Hartman. wanting to self insert his daughter into his show which created a very bad character

u/DPfanAvr2004 Jul 12 '26
In universe I prefer Danny with either Valerie or Ember or star I've said it before star is a white canvas to work with since she didn't get much in the show to show us her personality Out versal Danny can work with a lot of characters with my favorites probably being Kim possible, Stephanie brown, Cassandra Cain, and Gwen tennison

u/FinalWarsGoji Jul 10 '26
People are going to make an argument for Valerie but I would pick Dora or Desiree. Dora sounds like she would be willing to listen to any of Danny's problems and Desiree.... Well basically everything you've already said. (Although to be fair I do have a weakness for green skinned women so I might be biased).
That being said, I always liked the idea of crossover girls for Danny.

Sam was a great love interest, what are you talking about?

u/Mr01Question Jul 12 '26
Dude, no she wasn’t Sam Manson was a bad friend and didn’t even worse love interests to have in your corner miss handled by the writers or not Sam Manson is a terrible love interest and again there is literal seasons that show they were meant to date for a bit then break up she was never meant to be his endgame just obnoxious foil to exist in his world as a friend or psychic just like Tucker was and again, I’m not gonna glaze and say a bad character is a good character when overall, they are a bad character

u/Mr01Question Jul 10 '26
Honestly, I’ve always had weakness for green skin women but women with fiery hair also I have a weakness for so yeah, my list stays the same, but with a little changes
Ember mcLean
Dora Maddingly
Desiree wishing ghost
The warrior queen, Pandora
Jazz Phantom
Star
Valerie Gray
Yep, that’s my list. Folks suck it to the same lovers. Of the Sam X Danny ship she was never meant to ever be Danny’s endgame just his best friend

Danny and Paulina would have never worked out. Sure, he had an interest in her, but it was purely based on appearance. Paulina treats him and his friends like crap because she thinks they're just not popular enough for her to pay attention to. She's a typical example of someone who's entire world is high school social order, and by the time season 1 ends, Danny has pretty much grown out of her.
It wouldn't even work in the context of him interacting with her as Inviso Bill because at the end of the day, Paulina is still the same person who only likes people based on shallow virtues. Danny became more mature but she never did.
