Danny Phantom/Relationships

The relationships of Danny Phantom. These include information revealed about them after the series. 
==Love Interests==
===Sam Manson ===
Girlfriend/Future Wife
Sam is one of Danny's love interests and has been best friends since childhood. When Danny was made half-ghost, he fell into a slight depression and wanted his humanity restored, but Sam encouraged him to embrace his ghost half because it was what made him special. Since then, Sam has helped him fight off ghost supervillains and kept his identity a secret. It is shown they are both jealous wherever the other has a crush on someone else; Danny felt jealous when she began a brief romantic relationship with exchange student Gregor and Sam feels it vice versa with Danny's crushes on Paulina and Valerie Gray.
 However, they are initially unsure about their romantic feelings for each other and it isn't until they realize their mutual interest towards each other at the end of the series. Before they have to save the earth, Danny and Sam enter a passionate kiss that begins their relationship. After years of people pointing out their feelings for each other, they begin a relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend, which would continue well after the Disasteroid crisis, though it would face many outside hindrances. 
===Paulina Sanchez ===
(Ex-Crush)
Danny had a crush on Paulina Sanchez, a rich girl and part of the "A-Listers." Paulina more or less ignores Danny Fenton due to his low social standing at school. She firmly regards Danny Fenton as a loser and takes sadistic pleasure in belittling him and his friends. Despite this, Danny still persistently sought to gain her affection, to no avail. However, in some episodes, she found out Danny Fenton and Danny Phantom were the same person she only expressed interest on Fenton during these times. She immediately forgot about it, mostly because she was overshadowed by Kitty in "Lucky Love." 
However, Danny's relationship with Paulina as Danny Phantom is completely different, where she actually has a crush on Danny's alter ego even before Danny was considered a hero in Amity Park. These feelings for his alter ego, however, are based on selfish reasons, as she was infatuated with Danny's good looks rather than the heroic deeds around town. Eventually, Danny became more aware of Paulina’s spoiled and selfish nature and lost all interest in her, once regarding her as a loser and instead turned his attentions to Valerie, and finally, Sam.
===Valerie Gray===
(Ex-Girlfriend) 
Danny has a complex relationship with Valerie, who likes Danny Fenton but hates Danny Phantom. At first, they didn't get along because Valerie always treated Fenton with disdain until her descent into unpopularity. They were forcibly paired together for their baby project and didn't get along. However, when they were trapped in the Ghost Zone, they had a temporary truce in fighting Skulker, and Danny learned that Valerie had to work hard to support herself and her father. It was not Reign Storm that Valerie expressed interest in Danny and warned Sam to make a move on Danny before someone else did. Danny also told his friends to give her a chance, for they were being overprotective of him whenever he was alone with Valerie. at the end of the episode, Valerie tells Tucker and Sam she likes Danny. As Danny Phantom, Valerie once did whatever she could to hunt him down. Technus once manipulated their relationship to the point where they were briefly dating; however, Valerie breaks up with Danny to ironically protect him from her ghost hunting after seeing her suit attack him, but they depart on friendly terms. However, after learning Fenton and Phantom were the same person, Valerie was seen as one of the people who cheered after he saved the earth, showing she may have learned to let go of her hatred of Phantom.
==Family==
===Jack Fenton ===
(Father) 
Danny initially possessed a complicated relationship with his father. While Danny does love Jack, he often finds himself being humiliated by his father’s bumbling and immature behavior as well as his constant obsession with ghosts. This caused Danny to distance himself from his dad, making their relationship somewhat strained, though Jack was primarily unaware of this. Danny also fears his father, believing that if Jack were to ever discover the truth about him being half-ghost, then he would abandon all love for his son and attempt to destroy him. These fears are not without reason, for Jack initially held a deep hatred for Danny Phantom, not realizing that he was really his son Danny Fenton. Jack has attempted several times to either kill or capture the “ghost boy” considering him to be nothing more than a menace despite his constant heroics. 
Despite this, the two still love each other, and they slowly grow closer to each other as the series progresses, despite Danny still being embarrassed by his parents in public. When it was revealed that Danny Fenton and Phantom were the same person, Jack immediately accepted his son for what and who he was, putting Danny’s fears to rest. Jack now takes great pride in his son’s heroic activities and joins his ghost fighting team in the 10 years following the Disasteroid crisis.
===Maddie Fenton ===
(Mother) 
Danny’s relationship with Maddie was loving but somewhat strained, though not to the extent of the one he had with his father. As a toddler, Danny and Maddie were very close, but they grew apart as Danny got older due to his parents’ growing obsession with hunting ghosts. Though not as bad as his dad, Danny is quite often embarrassed by his mother’s erratic obsession with ghosts, causing him to distance himself from her overtime. He also does not completely trust his mother, as he feared that if she and his dad learned the truth about his powers, they would “rip him apart molecule by molecule”. 
Maddie also despises Danny Phantom, being unaware that he is her son. This has led her to try to kill him quite often and have to fight each other on some occasions. Despite his fear and embarrassment of her, Danny does still love his mother very much and doesn’t want anything bad to happen to her. Another reason he did not reveal his identity to her was out of fear that she and Jack would reject him for being half ghost, showing that he wants to maintain the love between them. In contrast to his fears, Maddie and Jack accepted their son after he revealed he was the half-ghost Danny Phantom, loving him regardless.
===Jazz Fenton ===
(Older Sister)
Jazz is Danny's older, sixteen-year-old sister who used to be very close to him during their earlier childhoods. As time passed, however, their relationship became somewhat strained as Jazz became more overbearing and overprotective of him. Prior to learning of his secret identity, Jazz attempted to serve as a role model and paternal guide for her Danny, having been worried that their parents’ obsession with ghosts was a bad influence for him. Despite her good intentions, however, she didn’t realize that she was smothering him, causing their relationship to become even more strained. While Danny did indeed still love his sister very much, he felt he could no longer open up to her due to her overbearing attitude. Further keeping him at odds with her was his secret identity, as he feared that she and their parents would no longer accept him if they found out the truth about his ghost powers.
During a ghost attack, Jazz saw him transform into Danny Phantom, though he did not realize this. Despite initially being shocked by Danny’s transformation, she decided to let him choose when he was ready to tell her. This shows that despite realizing that Danny was half-ghost, she didn’t resent him as he had feared before, still loving her brother unconditionally. She also understood his reasons for keeping his powers a secret, having seen how xenophobic their parents were towards ghosts.
For a long time, Jazz would often cover for her brother whenever he disappeared to fight ghosts and kept their parents from wondering where he went. During this time, she also occasionally saved his life. Jazz also came to realize that her younger brother was growing into the confident young mane and true hero. This caused her to become very proud of her brother and no longer treated him as a child in need, but as the young man he had become. This healed their strained relationship, allowing them to be close again.
During the battle with Dark Danny, Jazz finally revealed that she knew her brother’s secret and thus she would go one to join his ghost fighting team, Team Phantom, along with Sam and Tucker, though she usually served as a reserve member. By the time of the Disasteroid incident, their bond had not only been fully repaired but also stronger than ever before. When Jazz believed Danny to have been killed in a plane crash during the crisis, Jazz was heartbroken over his supposed death and tearfully revealed the truth to their parents. She was later overjoyed to discover he survived and saved the world from the meteorite.
Jazz continues to support her brother in the years following the Disasteroid crisis. By the time of Danny’s college years, he is constantly harassed and followed by fans and paparazzi, causing him to have little to no privacy or alone time. This caused Jazz to step in as Danny’s handler, managing all his social media and fan activity, as well as protecting him from crowds of fans. She also does her best to help him they and Sam time to themselves, knowing how much the constant attention has impaired their relationship. By the age of 26, Jazz continues to fight alongside her brother as a member of Team Phantom 
===Dani Phantom ===
(Adoptive Sister/Clone)
Danny has a loving and close relationship with his Dani, the only surviving Danny Phantom clone created by his arch-enemy, Vlad Plasmius. Posing as his distant half-ghost cousin, Dani was on the side of her creator, who she considered her father. Initially skeptical of her existence, some levels of trust were displayed in her until she helped Vlad kidnap Danny and deliver him to her father. Being she was the only one with free well, Danny tried warning Dani about how glad she was just using her for his own personal gain, but she didn't listen. However, Dani realized Danny was right all along because Plasmius was only using her to perfect the idyllic Half-ghost son when he screamed that she was meant to serve him and set him free when he was trapped. They band together and fought Plasmius together before Dani left to explore the world her own. 
In "D-Stabilized," the penultimate episode of Season 3, Danny met Dani again when she returned to Amity Park to find a cure for her body’s destabilization. By this time, Danny acted as a protective older brother figure for Dani, swearing he would keep her safe from Vlad and promised to find a way to save her from her deteriorating state. When he believed he arrived too late to rescue Dani from Vlad and prevent her death, Danny was heartbroken and begged Dani to forgive him for failing her. He was later overjoyed when it turned out that he did manage to save her, with the two happily embracing each other in a hug. After the rescue, Danny further showed his protectiveness of Dani by angrily telling Vlad to never go near her again.
Though Dani departed after this, she later helped Danny turn the Earth Intangibile with thousands of other ghosts during the Disasteroid crisis. Eventually, Danny told his parents and sister about Dani, and they adopted her into the family, making them officially siblings. Their bond would grow as the years passed by, and Dani even became an official member of Team Phantom in the ten years following her adoption.
===Alicia ===
(Aunt)
Alicia is the sister of Danny's mother, making her his maternal aunt. However, their relationship is not explored. Oddly enough, in the alternate dark timeline, Danny doesn't go to live with his aunt after his family and friends die in the Nasty Burger accident. Instead, he chose to live with Vlad Masters, who had custody of Danny over Alicia. According to an alternate version of his archenemy, Danny turned to him of all people and the only one who understood what Danny was going through. This means Danny possibly knew Alicia wouldn't be able to help him.
== Friends ==
===Tucker Foley ===
(Best Friend)
Danny and Tucker have been best friends since their early childhood. In some ways Danny’s friendship with Tucker is even greater than the one he has with Sam, since the two often have the same interests, except Tucker’s liking of technology and crushes. The two often get along and enjoy each other’s company. Tucker was the only other person besides Sam that Danny trusted to keep his secret about his powers. Tucker would go on to join Danny’s ghost fighting team, Team Phantom, working together to protect Amity Park from evil ghosts. Danny values Tucker’s technological skills, considering him an invaluable member of the team and often relying on his skills for aid in the field, especially against Technus. Despite this, their friendship is not perfect. Danny can often be annoyed by Tucker’s antics and technological interests. Tucker also harbors a secret jealousy of Danny’s powers and fame, which has caused him to become susceptible to the machinations of evil ghosts twice (Desiree and Hotep Ra). Additionally, Danny has intentionally booked both Kwan and Dash when Tucker made fun of him when Jazz accidentally sucked Danny into the Fenton Thermos, which only resulted in tucker being stuffed into a locker to get his point across that being trapped in confined. Despite this, they do manage to always reconcile and beat the odds. In the ten years since Danny obtained his powers, they have remained best friends, and Tucker continues to fight alongside him as a member of Team Phantom.
===Clockwork ===
(Friend/Mentor)
Clockwork has a secret fondness for Danny and seeks to help him in his growth of being a superhero. Initially an enemy of Danny, Clockwork was tasked by the Observants with destroying him so that he would never become Dark Danny, his evil future self. To do this, Clockwork sent some of the ghosts of further to fight Danny and eventually came to fight Danny himself, with Clockwork nearly killing him. In truth, however, Clockwork was trying to help him not become Dark Danny and gave him a secret test of character to ensure a better future for everyone. 
After Danny proved he was not a cheater, Clockwork stopped the explosion at Nasty Burger and saving Danny’s friends, family, and teacher, which was the chain of events that led this to happen and gave Danny a second chance. Danny was grateful to Clockwork for this and considers him to be a friend and somewhat of a mentor figure. 
In "The Masters of Time" he asked for Clockwork's help in stopping Vlad's accident by going into the past to change things to save Sam, Tucker, and be extension, Vlad when his case of ecto-acne returned and he inflicted it on Danny's friends. However, when Danny unintentionally meddled in the past and affected the present, in which his father suffered the accident, which resulted in Jack getting those powers and Maddie marrying Vlad. Clockwork would not let Danny try again and that he had to save Vlad, Tucker, and Sam in the present. However, when Danny realized what the cure to save his friends was because of high lethal levels of diet coke, he flew away, and Clockwork smiled, showing he was secretly testing Danny again. Clockwork would later help Danny save the world from the Disasteroid by joining the millions of ghosts that turned the Earth intangible.
=== Frostbite ===
(Mentor/Friend)Frostbite and his people worship Danny because he saved the Ghost Zone and the world from Pariah Dark and they call him "Great One" and "Savior of the Ghost Zone" as a sign of respect and they are the only ones who acknowledge this feat. In "Urban Jungle," Frostbite showed concern for Danny when he was found unconscious in the Land of the Far Frozen and immediately had him healed. After Danny recovered, Frostbite helped him control his ice and snow powers, but he fears it when Danny accidentally freezes him with the out-of-control power.
=== Wulf ===
Good Friend
Wulf is a ghost sent out to hunting down Danny by Walker. However, after seeing Bullet using a shock collar agaibst Wulf, and realizing he wasn't in control of his actions, Danny saved the wolf ghost by turning the electrical currents against Bullet's shock collar remote and using it against him, temporarily freeing him. Wulf determined that Danny was a friend after sniffing him out and licking him. They consider each other friends and care immensely about each other up to a point where Danny threatens Walker after seeing him abuse Wulf on their encounters. Wulf is fairly protective of him and is loyal to him out of friendship, being like an older brother-figure. 
=== Pandora ===
Friend
Pandora is one of the few ghosts who Danny is on friendly terms with. She helps him defeat the Box Ghost when he stole her box. She is very nice to him and at the end of the show it is shown that she had invited Danny to her lair. It is not clear whether they had become allies or friends, but it is best assumed they are on good terms with each other.
===Mr. Lancer ===
(Teacher)
Mr. Lancer used to be one of Danny's enemies and least favorite teachers. However, as the series went on, Lancer stopped acting antagonistic towards Danny and just wanted him to succeed like the rest of his students. This was seen in Season 1, where he allowed Danny to re-take a test he fell asleep due to playing the video game "Doomed." He tells Jack and Maddie he believes Danny can amoount to something. In "The Ultimate Enemy,"Danny returned the test answers to Mr. Lancer said he was not a cheater. Mr. Lancer gave Danny detention, but let him study for a week to do a retesting.
==Enemies==
===Vlad Plasmius ===
(Arch-enemy)
While unaware that Vlad was a half-ghost just like him and that he was the ghost who sent vultures to take out his father, Danny told by his parents that Vlad suffered an accident from a Ghost Portal like Danny did. They officially met at a reunion for a college that Jack and Maddie used to attend. Initially, Vlad and Danny were friendly with one another, but Danny was unsettled by his odd behavior by hitting on his mother and his obsession with the Green Bay Packers. He encountered Vlad's ghost self the following night, where Danny fought and lost to his new rival. Upon learning that Danny Phantom and Danny Fenton were the same person, Vlad saw this as a slight change in plans when he realized he was not the only half-ghost. Remaining on friendly terms with Danny, the latter eventually found out that Vlad Masters was the one responsible for the vultures when Danny found the ripped-up picture of Vlad, Jack and Maddie in his lab and Danny put two and two together. As soon as he was trapped, Vlad revealed he was a fellow Halfa to Danny, promising to train him in his abilities if he renounced Jack as his father. Immediately, Danny saw Vlad as a threat to his family, and they fought each other, where Danny forced Vlad into a truce. 
In the first two seasons, Vlad tries everything possible to kill Jack and take Maddie and Danny for himself as a wife and son, respectively. However, Danny grows angered and takes every chance he has to humiliate Vlad and him vice versa. At one point, Danny considers Vlad his arch-enemy and his most hated rival. As the series went on, Danny and Vlad continued to get at each other's throats. However, they have to set aside their differences and work together in "Reign Storm" and "Torrent of Terror" against Pariah Dark and Vortex. After constantly being rejected, Vlad tried to clone Danny to have the perfect half-ghost son. However, the only thing he had closest was a female clone named Danielle. At first, trying to help Vlad, Danielle turned against her "father" and helped Danny fight him, now going by "Dani." Ever since the incident, Danny and Vlad developed a stronger hatred towards one another. In "Eye for an Eye," they went on a prank war, and Vlad only took the position as Mayor of Amity Park to spite him. Danny's arch-enemy will take any opportunity to mock or torment Danny, as seen in "Planet Phantom," when he mocks Danny for losing his powers. However, Danny and the other ghosts were the ones who saved the Earth from the Disasteroid
Needless to say, Danny is similar to Vlad, but they differ, given that Danny eventually realizes he can not use his powers for personal gain. Unlike Vlad, who chose to go through alone, Danny has family and friends to support him in his transition from human to half-ghost and ended up with the girl he loves, Sam, while Vlad never ended up with his love interest. While Danny will be hailed as a hero and savior of Earth by the humans, Vlad would be infamous for his status as a villain and the evil ghost he was. Ten years after the events of Planet Phantom, Vlad was tortured by a malicious alien race and was driven into madness. He tries to find a way to get back to Earth, hoping to get his revenge on Danny. Vlad often calls Danny "Daniel" and rarely calls him by his preferred nickname. 
In the timeline in which Danny lost his parents, sister, and friends and teacher in the Nasty Burger explosion, he had no one else to turn to. Forced to move in with his arch-enemy, Vlad took pity on the orphaned Danny, who believed Vlad could be the only person who could possibly understand what he was going through. Vlad tried to help Danny, even trying to comfort him over his loss and wanted to make Danny's pain go away by ripping his ghost half out However, the ghost half tore out Plasmius from Vlad and became Dark Danny. When he found Vlad in the future, Danny learned of his fate in the future, but even then, he still saw Plasmius as an enemy. 
=== Dark Danny ===
(Alternate Future Self/Secondary Enemy)
Dark Danny is arguably Danny’s most vile, dangerous, and hated foe. Unlike the rest of Danny’s ghost enemies who have some form of moral compass, Dark Danny has nothing of the sort, with his evil being greater than that the likes of even Freakshow (with the Reality Gauntlet), Spectra, Nocturn, Undergrowth, Vortex, Pariah Dark, and even Vlad; making him all the more dangerous and Danny's most feared nemesis. 
He is an evil version of Danny from an alternate future, in which Danny used his ghost powers to cheat on an upcoming test for school, which resulted in a horrific accident involving an explosion at the Nasty Burger restaurant, resulting in the deaths of Danny’s family, friends, and teacher. In his grief and guilt, Danny ended up turning to his arch enemy, Vlad Masters, seeking a way to separate himself from his ghost-half, which he blamed for the incident that cost him everything. Though reluctant, Vlad agreed and removed Danny Phantom from Danny Fenton’s being. However, Danny’s ghost-half went berserk and removed Vlad’s ghost-half in turn before attempting to overshadow it. This led to the two ghosts merging together, resulting in Dark Danny’s true creation. Upon his creation, Dark Danny held nothing but contempt for his human-half and promptly murdered him without remorse before embarking on a 10-year rampage of destruction and death across both the Earth and Ghost Zone. 
When Danny, before the accident, traveled to the future and met his future self, he was horrified at the monster he was going to soon become. Danny possesses a great/strong hatred for his future self, being revolted by Dark Danny’s utterly evil nature and the atrocities he has committed. Dark Danny likewise hates his younger self for his compassion, empathy, and heroics, viewing such qualities as weak and disgusting. However, Dark Danny, initially, sought to preserve Danny’s life, not because he cared about him but due to the fact that since Danny is his younger-self, if he were to die then he (Dark Danny) would cease to exist. Thus, Dark Danny saved Danny from a future-Valerie’s attack and only sought to restrain him during their battle. Despite this, Dark Danny is shown to be quite cruel and abusive to his former self as he is unafraid to pummel Danny into submission and enjoys torturing him physically and psychologically 
Danny’s hatred for Dark Danny grew even greater when, in order to ensure his continued existence, Dark Danny transformed into his younger self to murder their friends and family. This led to an epic battle between them, one in which Dark Danny nearly won. Ironically however, Danny defeated his evil-self not only by using his newly acquired Ghostly Wail power, but also through his desire to protect his loved ones, a trait that the latter considered to be nothing more than a weakness. This led to Dark Danny capture in the Fenton Thermos, where he would remain for several years under Clockwork’s watch due to him now existing outside of time. 
Danny’s battle with his future self had a profound impact on him. After Danny learned from the future Vlad how his own selfishness and misuse of his powers caused Dan’s creation and the horrible future he created, Danny swore to use them more responsibly. It also made him a bit more wary of his powers and possessed a secret fear of them one day harming his loved ones, as seen during the series finale. Thus Danny strives to never become like the evil he was originally meant to be.10 years after their first encounter, Dark Danny, now more powerful and driven insane by his imprisonment, escaped from his prison and sought revenge on his alternate-self for defeating him. Even worse, now that he exists outside of time, he can now kill Danny without endangering his own existence, making him even more dangerous than ever. 
===Johnny 13 and Shadow ===
(Frenemies)Danny met Johnny and Shadow in episode 13, where Danny grows overprotective of Jazz when Johnny starts dating her (while getting Kitty to possess her).In later episodes, Johnny is somewhat friendlier to the younger boy, even coming to him for help about Kitty and getting back together with her. It is implied that Johnny just comes to Amity Park just to play games with Danny rather than out of malice. Meanwhile, Shadow often goes after Danny when Johnny orders his Shadow to. Danny shows his low opinion of Shadow, calling him a dork at one point. Johnny refers to Danny as "kid" or "little man" and finding himself entertained by the younger ghost's heroic and threatening "tough guy act," essentially calling it a facade. Like Kitty, he is one of the few characters who points out that Sam and Danny liked each other. (Girls' Night Out)
Overall, out of all Danny's enemies, Johnny (and by extension Shadow) are shown to be the less hostile as the series progresses. In fact, Johnny is one of the few people to know of Danny's feelings for Sam. 
===Kitty===
Frenemies 
Kitty is one of Danny's on and off enemies he had problems with in the episode "13." In "Lucky Love," Kitty once dated Danny only to make Johnny jealous; she did this by overshadowing Paulina and using her as her disguise. Of course, Kitty blackmailed Danny into helping her get back at Johnny for flirting with other human girls. At the end of the episode, Kitty got back together with Johnny, and at that point, Danny thought she was too clingy as a girlfriend. She sometimes helps Danny, seen when she helped him fight the Ghost Writer in the "Fright Before Christmas," and shows him sympathy. She also helped him turn the Earth intangible. 
Overall, they seem to be like frenemies, as Kitty apologized to Danny for the trouble she and Johnny caused in "Lucky Love," but they continue to cause Danny problems, rather out of mischief than out of malice. She is also one of the few ghosts aware of his feelings for Sam, as she questioned, "You like her, don't you?" and considered overshadowing Sam to get Johnny jealous. 
===Skulker ===
(Enemy/Occasional Ally)
Skulker is one of Danny’s most recurring and persistent enemies. As the self-proclaimed greatest hunter of the Ghost Zone, Skulker was intrigued by Danny’s status as a half-ghost/half-human hybrid and saw him as no different from a common animal to hunt. Since then, he has become obsessed with hunting Danny. Initially he wanted to capture Danny alive keep him on display in lair, but when the ghost boy proved more difficult to capture than anticipated, he settled for “resting his pelt at the food of his bed”.Initially, Danny was scared of Skulker, but as time went by and he defeated him more often, he came to see Skulker as a true foe that needed to be stopped. He also mocks him at any point in time, despite it never coming to it. 
Despite their animosity and constant battles, Danny and Skulker seem to have a large level of respect for one another. Often, when they encounter a common enemy, Danny and Skulker will work nearly flawlessly together and somewhat risk their lives for each other before going back to being enemies after their mutual foe has been defeated However, at one point, Danny saved Skulker from monstrous unicorn ghosts in "Boxed Up Fury." Skulker said that this should stay between them and, in turn, for the Ghost Teen for saving him, told him how to get to Pandora's palace 
===Ember McLain ===
(Enemy/One-Sided Crush)
Originally, Ember was believed to be a human rockstar. Danny seemed to be indifferent to her. He found it odd how she was able to get so many fans in just a short amount of time, and unlike Tucker, didn’t like her singing. When it turned out that she was a ghost, Danny set out to stop her. Ember, for her part, thought little of Danny, seeing him as no big threat to her plans and referring to him with belittling slang terms such as “dipstick” and “babypop”. During their first encounter, Ember placed a love spell on Danny that caused him to fall in love with Sam. Sadly the only way to break the spell was for Danny’s heart to be broken, which Sam reluctantly did (by kissing Dash) in order for Danny to regain his senses and stop Ember from taking over the world. When he was freed from the spell, Danny swore revenge in Ember for causing his heart to be broken and furiously attacked her before defeating her and foiling her plans. For the most part, Danny seems to have let go of his grudge towards Ember, now seeing her only a ghost that must be defeated.
In a concept video, despite having been defeated by him at the concert, Ember would possibly continue to cause problems for Danny throughout his superhero career. Despite having been defeated by him, Ember continues to underestimate Danny, seeing him as weak and no threat to her continuous plans to take over the world. Her underestimation of Danny would always lead to her defeat at his hands. Sometimes, when it comes to her own safety, Ember is willing to ally herself with Danny when the need calls for it, especially during "Reign Storm" and turning the Earth intangible for the Disasteroid incident. Oddly enough, as the years went by, Ember secretly developed feelings for Danny. While she defensively refuses to admit it, in the 10 years following their first encounter, Ember no longer performs acts of villainy for the sake of power as she use too, but only to get Danny’s attention. Her romantic feelings for him have become obvious to others since she shaved his symbol on her head and even used a guitar shaped in his logo. It is unknown if Danny is aware of Ember’s secret crush on him.

=== Jeremy and Pamela Manson ===
(Future Parents In-Laws)
Jeremy and Pamela have a low opinion of Danny Fenton, mostly due to their dislike of his parents, whom they usually despise for their ghost obsession and childishness. This comes to a head in the episode “Control Freaks”, where they accuse him of being a bad interest on their daughter since he supported her gothic interests. Eventually, they forbid Sam from seeing Danny again due to the trouble he and Sam got into during the episode. Their opinion of Danny slightly improved after he, Sam, and Tucker got Freakshow arrested, but only allowed their daughter to see her again if she agreed to wear an uncomfortable dress for the rest of the night. Their opinion of Danny would worsen over time, however, due to the heated rivalry between them and his parents. It also becomes evident that they disapprove of the growing attraction between him and their daughter. As for his Danny Phantom persona, they, like many in Aminty Park, seem to view him as a menace, but their views changed during the Disasteroid Crisis, as they clapped and cheered for him after he revealed his plan on how to save the world. 
It is unknown how they felt about Danny and Sam dating or their eventual wedding. However, considering the fact they applauded him for saving the Earth, its possible they do not seem to mind. Either way, Danny becomes their son-in-law and the father of their two grandchildren.
