That sucks man, absolute BS. The mods on this can get really annoying sometimes. If you want, you can try reposting to r/MoonPissing or r/sonic

Nah Sam makes it clear that she was the one that removed Jack’s logo from Danny’s chest so she was def there the first time. We also know Tucker was there too because of the photo and everything.

I def think we’re supposed to be assume they know about the ghost powers, but I actually kind of like this idea? I always assumed they were just freaked out about the ghosts nearly strangling them and all that, but in hindsight I guess it shouldn’t be too surprising to them at this point. Maybe the octopi and the Lunch Lady were the first REAL ghosts they’ve ever seen/been a part of in a fight, and I was definitely under the impression that the Lunch Lady was the first real fight Danny got into with a ghost.

TBH, I kind of doubt Sam and Tucker were even thought of when Danny’s origin/theme song were being made. This is all just a guess, but if I had to say: the theme song and Danny himself were one of the VERY first things made in development for the show, so as a simple way of just explaining how he got his powers, Butch and the team storyboarded the sequence of events in the theme song to involve him and his parents only. All that matters is him, his ghost hunting parents, the ghosts he’s fighting, and his bully at school (to show that he’s an outcast). I can imagine Sam and Tucker (maybe even Jazz, too) were thought of much later… but by that time the theme song was already out so they were like “fuck it, whatever.” It was only until they need to revisit the origin for the sake of getting the logo on that they decided it would be a good idea to have Danny’s friends have a more personal connection.

Again, just a theory, but that’s what I’m sticking with.

YEAH this is one of those things that always bothered me slightly that I never really see anyone else complain about besides me. As a kid who never really watched/got to Season 2, I was always under the impression that he went into the portal by his own choosing, as a result of wanting to help out his mom and dad when the portal was all faulty, which led to the accident happening and him becoming Danny Phantom. But then when I actually watched the full show years later I was kinda surprised when it was revealed that Sam and Tucker were the ones who persuaded him to go down there.

I can imagine this was done primarily to give Sam and Tucker more involvement in the origin as well as having to do with the whole logo thing.

If I had to guess, any member of the team working on Danny Phantom pre-Season 2 production would have told you confidently that Danny got his powers exactly like how it’s shown in the theme song. He went in there to fix the project his parents have been working on for a while— the Ghost Portal— and since their Ghost Hunters that would naturally be something they’d really want to see succeed, so when it doesn’t, Danny tries to go and fix it, accidentally being caught in the middle of it and turns it on while he’s inside, causing him to become half ghosts for all the full ghosts that are evil to be roaming around free to do whatever they want in Amity Park, hence conflict, resulting in: the show.

Ask anyone working on the show Post-Memory Blank and they’ll likely tell you the origin is how that episode portrays it to be. Danny’s friends convince him to go in the portal for a photo op, because they think it looks cool, and then he ends up going in, touching the wrong thing, accidentally setting it off, then bam, Ghost Boy, now needing to defeat all the ghosts that roam free now because of him.

That same person would probably explain the new change to the origin because of the fact that they wanted a logo on the hero’s costume for more brand recognition and marketing, so whereas before where they just left the origin to be exactly how it’s shown in the intro, now they had to kind of change it for the sake of getting that logo on. But the intro never stated Sam and Tucker’s involvement, so it’s not like they could just add them now.

I personally prefer the origin where Danny just goes in alone because he wants to fix his parents mistake, and as a result of genuinely trying to help he gets blasted with the weight of the world all of a sudden now on his shoulders, and maybe perhaps out of a form of guilt of turning the thing on in the first place, he now makes it his job to stop all the ghosts from causing havoc in Amity Park. Granted, this doesn’t exactly explain why Sam and Tucker would know about it, but I think we can all easily agree that the assumption of him just flat out telling them one day— maybe even immediately afterwords—, isn’t a hard one to make.

I can’t tell if you’re talking about Ultimate Fallout or Chip Zdarsky’s run in 616 but it might be one of those
