He doesn't give a half measure but tries his hardest to come up with a plan. Never does he say "good enough"; he goes with "that could work"
@Rasputin Potter ua-cam.com/video/umKNUCcSbtQ/v-deo.html Seen this? More important Question: Can Butch maybe stop claiming he healed Autism with Believe in God? Propaganda for Healing with Believe and making people think Doctors arent useful is bad enough, but saying Autism is a Disease, and you healed it, is yet another Level. Another Level. It's related Problems but yet another Level. It's a freaking Insult to say you cured Autism with Believe. You need the Self-Awareness to know this. You're an Adult, so you need to know such things.
I honestly like watching creators find out how strong their character is “we didn’t think of that at all, we just thought it looked cool” made me laugh real hard because not a lot of creators think about the powerscaling when they make feats. It’s just what looks cool
No it’s just that Death Battle can only really choreograph dragon ball z style battles and if any DBZ esc abilities show up, then you can be sure that they could more then likely just be switched with any DBZ character on the spot and it’d still look like it was just as good, they’re quite limited in what they can do due to rarely doing anything different unless they absolutely have too.
How come Danny Phantom didn’t throw that many punches in the show? Is there any particular reason than being a kids show because I feel like there are kids shows where characters fought..
@@JTReviewsPlus One reason why Danny doesn't throw many punches is because he's physically not that strong (he's a scrawny teenager that in multiple occasions was pointed out to be scrawny). His ghost powers give him a lot of powers, but doesn't enhance his physical strength much, if at all, so the more options he got in the show to replace punching, the less he punched.
Given the way it happened, you could argue that Danny was NOT expecting that a Dragon could be INCINERATED at all ["fireproof" ]; so the killing could have being accidental (not attempted murder but just incapacitation/knock_out). -> Once it happened, it was Danny´s responsability to ensure that the ghost of that dragon guy would not cause even more damage to the city [their 4 vs 4 battle did too much already]; so also trapping his spirit was the right thing to do (he can release him on the Ghost Zone & ask forgiveness later).
A big disclaimer they used to put, the characters need to not be hesitant to inflict the killing blow, or else it would taint the result. It is very common hero characters get pitted against each other, and it wouldn't exactly make for great entertainment if they eventually just resolved it with "Oh, it was some cheesy misunderstanding."
Video: "Wait a minute, is Danny a Ghostbuster?" Butch: I never thought of that." Also Butch in another video: "I actually took some inspiration from the Ghostbusters"
RaiShisho i wish more creators would take the time to make a video of them watching their creations fight or the voice actors make a video watching the videos.
I never doubted Danny would win. He had the clear advantage in mentality over Jake. Despite both being teenagers, Danny is more quick to take things seriously even with his sense of humor; Jake is more arrogant and toys with his enemies.

It's amazing how well he knows his characters personalities. He called out how Danny would fight seconds before it happened on screen with the ghostly possession.

This is a pleasant surprise, the man who created Danny Phantom and Fairly Odd Parents reacting to a death battle that has one of his cartoon creations in it.

@@ButchHartmanart You may be forgetting about a web comic made by Kuro the artist (remember him?) and the things related to that. The Webcomic is entitled "5 Years Latter" (or just 5YL for short).
Indeed would of been epic if in the last part you see danny's eyes turn greener then ever before he channels the wail into a focused ectoplasm blast from his hands vaporizing Jake then jake goes unwilling into the thermos. So what happened just more epic.
Huge fan of Death Battle, and I can only imagine how weird it must be to see your own character in something you had no involvement in. *SPOILER ALERT* really thrilled that Danny won! As an older comic book fan, I've always been hesitant to dive in on newer heroes (particularly those outside DC and Marvel), but Danny Phantom was a happy exception.
Cameraman: did you know that it would impact that much damage? Butch: no we didn't think about that when we did it. We just thought it would look cool. That can actually be said for a lot of feats from anime and cartoon characters. (Like the shattering dimension feat from the broly movie)
When they first announced this during last week’s death battle, I was super anxious to see if Danny would win. I liked American Dragon but Danny Phantom was my go-to cartoon growing up (my general art style is mainly due to your work on Danny phantom) So seeing Danny win, well more like dominate this fight was a huge rush for my nostalgia. So kudos to death battle. (I also really enjoyed how they took a minute to mention how Danny beat his evil future self. Dan Phantom/Dark Danny is easily one of my favorite enemies in the show)
You know your characters well, Butch! The instant you said "he needs to take over his body", I just said "that's EXACTLY what he's about to do". Awesome stuff!
To the people I was debating with within the community tab, I'll admit I was wrong about the Ghostly Wail being the deciding factor. Death Battle even mentioned the fatigue that comes with using it so I thought the move would have more importance; however, they sort of glossed over the Ghostly Wail in the fight. Danny used it for an instant and then that was it. I was expecting him to use the Ghostly Wail with his doppelgangers in all directions or something big but things turned out differently. So, I concede defeat but I'm very happy with the outcome. I was rooting for Danny the whole time but I know Death Battle has a knack for exploiting weaknesses so I was worried.
Actually they dont focus on weakness unless they would actually play a big part. Like cable vs booster gold they mentioned that booster could run out of power a few times and it never came up in the fight cause realistically it wouldnt since his power lasts for days. Also we vs thor they glossed over her weakness cause it wasnt important, mecha godzilla vs dragon zord didnt include mecha gs weakness of battery life, and many other battles. Alot of death battles ignore a weakness cause there really is no need for it cause it would actually be a very small factor and for this fight the factor was that jake had no defences against it and danny had other ways to win anyway like possession
Ngl, I don't think DB could skew the numbers on this one. I mean, it's hard to find a character that doesn't get bodied by Invisibility, Intangiblility, and Possesion wraped up in one bundle topped off with Energy progection and Cryo Manipulation.
Well why i would like to say his fatigue is an issue you might be glossing over the fact in the finale danny who had recently regained his powers shot out a near omnidirectional one and was still in his ghost half to continue his endeavor. Even if you say he gained more power from the ghost he still had to project his most costly atk against every opponent that was there. It was definitely a large ammount. Considering ghost rays are relatively easy to shoot with most of the time no outwardly cost but heavy destruction he still blasted away all of them with his costly atk with no signs of strain afterward.
his ghostly wail should've been the finisher that vaporize Jake. it vaporized a army of animated christmas tree so it should be enough to vaporize Jake.
@@cyberwolfy37 that's my main issue-if it's enough to vaporize ghosts it would be enough to WRECK Jake and it never should've been used as a once and done thing so soon in the fight.
@Rasputin Potter You are probably saying that because of how generic this comment sounds but I'm genuinely enjoying his content. I don't earn anything from likes and I literally forgot about that comment. Anyway have a good day/night sir.
This was my favorite Death Battle episode. And it got better when you were reacting to it. Danny Phantom is my all time favorite! How did it feel knowing that Danny was so powerful than you originally thought?
I always knew Danny was powerful, I just didn't know that he could output that much energy. These death battle guys are amazing for doing the math like that.
@Águila701 Many writers have their characters do something visually impressive without actually knowing the amount of energy required to pull off such feats in real life. I'm not knocking on the creators, mind you; pretty much every comic book, anime, video game, sci-fi, fantasy and cartoon writer ever does this. The math required to figure these things out is nuts (and boring as hell). As a result, they often don't realize just how powerful their own characters are when you actually sit down and crunch the numbers. For example, Jake blasting holes through those apartment walls doesn't sound that impressive compared to other fictional characters' feats until you do the math and realize he just casually expelled multi-tons worth of TNT in a single breath. No writer in their right mind actually does the math for every feat their character does. Not only would it be ridiculously time-consuming, but nothing kills creativity like forcing everything to fit within certain parameters. For example: "Wouldn't it be cool if the hero catches that falling stone pillar! Oh, wait. The pillar is roughly (X) tons, which is well within his established strength limit, but it's free-falling from high enough to reach terminal velocity, which according to this complex mathematical equation, means it actually equals (X * 10) tons. Darn. Guess I'll just have to rewrite that scene!" … said no fiction writer ever!
That's why I love Death battle. I'm so glad my boy Danny won, never doubted him for a second. I still remember coming home everyday and watching Danny Phantom every day. You literally created my childhood and I cannot be more thankful
you gotta love how Butch and the animators never intended for Danny to be super powerful they just cared about how cool Danny's moves and attacks were; years later and now Butch sees his creation winning a death battle lol.
I love how it was portrayed and i knew Danny would win. Jake would totally be the aggressor. He's brash and hot-headed. In hus show he frequently acted without thinking and would have to deal with his actions or be balanced out by his team mates. He wouldn't have believed Danny, presumably cought in the act, even if he'd tried to explain himself. Danny probably wouldn't have seen him as a threat initially until he actually was hurt. More confused than anything but i am surprised he didnt try to explain himselfm. So i like the beginning. They were surprisingly matched. I felt Jake didnt get a fair shake since his specialty is hand to hand combat, but Danny played the strategy game well. It seemed Danny was trying to pull his punches at the start. I dont think Danny would have gone for a killing blow, but this is Death Battle after all.
Jake definitely was winning in hand to hand combat actually, Danny actually rarely went in for cqc unless he was caught off guard or felt as if he had the win. Laser blasts are his bread and butter
JocofAllTrades Yes, Jake got the hand to hand combat and reflexes experiences though Danny has much more powers he can use. Also, the original most definitely phased away from his fiery death via the building just in time in order to surprise Jake from behind and the rest is history. Even if the flames did hit Danny, he endured a much more powerful fiery attack so there’s that as well.
Newgirlde Jake isn’t as hot headed as you think. Because in the episode for his Chinese family reunion (who are all dragons) he had that competition with his one cousin. And during the final one a shark lady came up wanting to talk with Jake about something and Jake saw how she was acting. His cousin right there was hot headed not Jake. Yes at first Jake was hot headed but later on in the series with the choices he had to make he became more level headed in those kinds of situations. But that only used Jake’s feats from season and mainly talked about no feats from season two which would have made this death battle more different. I am happy Danny won but I was actually rooting for Jake even though I grew up watching and loving both characters.
12:41 a lot of writers do that without knowing the actual science behind it. Not that that's a bad thing but it definitely makes fictional characters very OP
That definitely leads to a lot of over and under scaling in fiction. While I understand why writers do this, I also would appreciate if writers did more research before giving their characters feats. Like if the character is meant to be just human, having him smash his face through concrete walls without sustaining immediately lethal damage probably shouldn't happen.
@@TheClassicnathan mostly because that would mean that the characters would probably need to be more careful and as such the battles would be more dramatic and dificult if you know the other guy is just a normal human like me and you instead of a basically súper human (like Batman for example) But mainly is a problem for when people put them in battles (that imo, no one really cares aside for a bunch of nerds who actually give any through to this battles) because then you have a character that is supposed to have a specific power level sudenly being more powerful than a fucking nuke because of that one scene when he did something just because the writer through it was cool But yeah i understand, that shouldn't stop writers from doing what they want because as i say, no one really cares about vs battles
carso1500 but it's a cartoon though, I doubt kids expecially back during Danny Phantom's airing would have cared about realism expecially when shows like DBZ also aired on Nick
Experience with fighting ghosts was the difference. Danny deals non magical powers a lot; ghost powers involve telekinesis and ectoplasmic energy, which have limits. Jake deals with magical beings who have powers more grounded in common sense; its still magic but it has rules.
I like that they went with the Buff, Western Dragon Jake design for this fight, Eastern Noodle Dragon Jake didn't really mesh with the innate power fantasy of the premise... Also Butch, how mad would you be if both lost to fellow animated fantasy-protector teen Juniper Lee?
Its cool seeing a creator have so much love for a character they created. I love hearing what they think their character would react in a situation, how they would fight etc...
Man, I grew up watching Danny Phantom during my elementary school years and absolutely loved the show. So awesome to see the creator watch a Death Battle of his own creation, and best yet, to see him actually win!
It was nice to watch your reaction to the fight, Butch! They really do a great job with these Death Battles. I was glad when Danny won and I loved watching both cartoons when they were on.
Honestly I just love it when creators can come together and just enjoy each others work. These reactions are always the best when the orginal is a good sport and can appreciate the fan fiction is made!
Excuse me while I fangirl. I grew up with BOTH of these shows, so you drawing both and all is making me squeal hardcore! I clicked quicker than one could blink haha!!
[Technically Speaking] The next in the line of succession would be Jake´s little sister (then if she dies too, back to his grandfather). -> The key point here is the (debatable) status of Danny as a "magical" creature or not.
@@adolfodef And this could be the begining of a curious crossover episode where, after clearing the misunderstanding and both feeling guilty, now is Danny's duty to help Jake to find some kind of magical artifact that can recreate a living body from the ashes of the previous one.
@@Krimarihiyama96 or it could go in another way. have dannys new mission to be eradication of the dragon form. hunting down each new successor while attempting to seal the power away
Hey Butch Hartman I’m glad you liked the episode and I really hope you’ll bring the Danny Phantom series back one day soon because I love the show and I know for a fact that a lot of people miss it and want to see it get a fourth season
Love how you had the guys on before and even more impressed you called the ability usage in the middle of the fight. So surprised to see two people I'm subbed to on their own randomly both cross working on properties. Big fan and love how you took them using your beloved property so well.
Not only do I love videos like this where the creators of something react to or analysis work that uses their own creation, but I love the expanded lore that tends to come out of them, like "Gonna Catch Em All" not being a reference to Pokemon (which is surprising) and Ghost Busters not having any inspirational impact on Danny Phantom either.
Your shows have brought much joy in my life Butch. Thank you for the many years of wonderful shows, my top 2 favorites being Danny phantom, and fairly odd parents. My life has had more downs than it has ups and your shows have always made my days better as I still watch them to this day. Hope one day I can meet you in person and personality thank you. Keep up all the fantastic work and thank you again for making my childhood great!
I love the action!! Danny is a really good fighter, if he and Jake Long worked together in something like saving the world or something similar to that, they would make an awesome team.

I like that they nailed how Danny's character would react to Jake's banter.
I can tell by him say “what?” This won’t end well- DANNY GANG FOR LIFE
SURPRISE
Indeed would of been epic if in the last part you see danny's eyes turn greener then ever before he channels the wail into a focused ectoplasm blast from his hands vaporizing Jake then jake goes unwilling into the thermos. So what happened just more epic.
Lol it was clearly specifically put there as bait for us to keep watching
Hoes mad? DISNEY MAD!!!!!
@@haydonashley1478 I think it worked.
If Danny lost Butch would just reboot Danny and make him stronger
Lol facts
We could only hope so😭
Damnit, Jake should have been stronger then! Reboot or not we’d have more Danny!
Danny Dragon Slayer
Its rare but awesome to see a content creator supporting his creation in a different medium of media. Keep being awesome Hartman.
Huge fan of Death Battle, and I can only imagine how weird it must be to see your own character in something you had no involvement in.
*SPOILER ALERT*
really thrilled that Danny won! As an older comic book fan, I've always been hesitant to dive in on newer heroes (particularly those outside DC and Marvel), but Danny Phantom was a happy exception.
you gotta add the spoiler farther away fam xD
@@mahchoo thanks for the heads up! That should help a bit.
@@buddy318 thanks buddy!
...wait...buddy...
wtf man
Cameraman: did you know that it would impact that much damage?
Butch: no we didn't think about that when we did it. We just thought it would look cool.
That can actually be said for a lot of feats from anime and cartoon characters. (Like the shattering dimension feat from the broly movie)
Ah they shattered dimensions back in the buu days
@@hadeskingoftheunderworld7010 good times.
@@michaeltyson0588 yes back in the good old days of screaming so loud you tear holes in dimensions
Which is why power scaling irks so many people deep down
@Dabi theburnvictim i know right still amazing spectacle though
I love that he coaches Danny through the fight it's just so cool to see a creator engaging with what is essentially fan work of his character😂
When they first announced this during last week’s death battle, I was super anxious to see if Danny would win. I liked American Dragon but Danny Phantom was my go-to cartoon growing up (my general art style is mainly due to your work on Danny phantom)
So seeing Danny win, well more like dominate this fight was a huge rush for my nostalgia. So kudos to death battle. (I also really enjoyed how they took a minute to mention how Danny beat his evil future self. Dan Phantom/Dark Danny is easily one of my favorite enemies in the show)
It was obvious that Jake didn't stand a GHOST of a chance.
Only the first time I have seen this joke, and it's already over used...
@@kevinwise1997 this comment was made by a jojo fans so what did you expect
Your not 4kids
But he did get FIRED up
He had no SPIRIT for this fight
You know your characters well, Butch! The instant you said "he needs to take over his body", I just said "that's EXACTLY what he's about to do". Awesome stuff!
To the people I was debating with within the community tab, I'll admit I was wrong about the Ghostly Wail being the deciding factor. Death Battle even mentioned the fatigue that comes with using it so I thought the move would have more importance; however, they sort of glossed over the Ghostly Wail in the fight. Danny used it for an instant and then that was it. I was expecting him to use the Ghostly Wail with his doppelgangers in all directions or something big but things turned out differently. So, I concede defeat but I'm very happy with the outcome. I was rooting for Danny the whole time but I know Death Battle has a knack for exploiting weaknesses so I was worried.
Actually they dont focus on weakness unless they would actually play a big part. Like cable vs booster gold they mentioned that booster could run out of power a few times and it never came up in the fight cause realistically it wouldnt since his power lasts for days. Also we vs thor they glossed over her weakness cause it wasnt important, mecha godzilla vs dragon zord didnt include mecha gs weakness of battery life, and many other battles.
Alot of death battles ignore a weakness cause there really is no need for it cause it would actually be a very small factor and for this fight the factor was that jake had no defences against it and danny had other ways to win anyway like possession
Ngl, I don't think DB could skew the numbers on this one. I mean, it's hard to find a character that doesn't get bodied by Invisibility, Intangiblility, and Possesion wraped up in one bundle topped off with Energy progection and Cryo Manipulation.
Well why i would like to say his fatigue is an issue you might be glossing over the fact in the finale danny who had recently regained his powers shot out a near omnidirectional one and was still in his ghost half to continue his endeavor. Even if you say he gained more power from the ghost he still had to project his most costly atk against every opponent that was there. It was definitely a large ammount. Considering ghost rays are relatively easy to shoot with most of the time no outwardly cost but heavy destruction he still blasted away all of them with his costly atk with no signs of strain afterward.
his ghostly wail should've been the finisher that vaporize Jake. it vaporized a army of animated christmas tree so it should be enough to vaporize Jake.
@@cyberwolfy37 that's my main issue-if it's enough to vaporize ghosts it would be enough to WRECK Jake and it never should've been used as a once and done thing so soon in the fight.
Jake Long didn't stand A GHOST of a chance. Danny really WAILED on him.
I'll go home.
I chuckled 😂
Ghost puns are TIGHT
I didnt have a GHOST of a chance! But you're is better than mine TwT
To be fair, your puns aren't as bad as Boomstick.
Puns? Well I suppose those are fine as they are really in the......spirit....of the videos content.
The best part of this was the creator coaching Danny and telling him to take over his body and then he did it there in sync it’s amazing great vid
So like a hockey dad
I remember watching you when I was little in the Nick commercials teaching how to draw Timmy. You look great 😳
I think I have Cosmo in a 5th grade notebook, I loved those, but always struggled drawing Danny
*scrolls in UA-cam recommendations
*sees video
Me: Wait Butch Hartman has a UA-cam channel??!?!
*SUBSCRIBED*
@Rasputin Potter You are probably saying that because of how generic this comment sounds but I'm genuinely enjoying his content. I don't earn anything from likes and I literally forgot about that comment. Anyway have a good day/night sir.
Possible idea for a new series: Secret trio crossover, AKA Danny phantom, Randy cunningham and Jake Long.
This was my favorite Death Battle episode. And it got better when you were reacting to it. Danny Phantom is my all time favorite!
How did it feel knowing that Danny was so powerful than you originally thought?
I always knew Danny was powerful, I just didn't know that he could output that much energy. These death battle guys are amazing for doing the math like that.
@Águila701 Many writers have their characters do something visually impressive without actually knowing the amount of energy required to pull off such feats in real life. I'm not knocking on the creators, mind you; pretty much every comic book, anime, video game, sci-fi, fantasy and cartoon writer ever does this. The math required to figure these things out is nuts (and boring as hell).
As a result, they often don't realize just how powerful their own characters are when you actually sit down and crunch the numbers. For example, Jake blasting holes through those apartment walls doesn't sound that impressive compared to other fictional characters' feats until you do the math and realize he just casually expelled multi-tons worth of TNT in a single breath.
No writer in their right mind actually does the math for every feat their character does. Not only would it be ridiculously time-consuming, but nothing kills creativity like forcing everything to fit within certain parameters.
For example:
"Wouldn't it be cool if the hero catches that falling stone pillar! Oh, wait. The pillar is roughly (X) tons, which is well within his established strength limit, but it's free-falling from high enough to reach terminal velocity, which according to this complex mathematical equation, means it actually equals (X * 10) tons. Darn. Guess I'll just have to rewrite that scene!"
… said no fiction writer ever!
@@ButchHartmanart If Death Battle uses Danny Phantom again, who would you think would be a good match to fight him?
@@titanx8331 I'd like to see XJ9 From My Life as a Teenage Robot.
@@ButchHartmanart Good choice, another classic. I'd want to see him fight Avatar Aang.
That's why I love Death battle. I'm so glad my boy Danny won, never doubted him for a second. I still remember coming home everyday and watching Danny Phantom every day. You literally created my childhood and I cannot be more thankful
you gotta love how Butch and the animators never intended for Danny to be super powerful they just cared about how cool Danny's moves and attacks were; years later and now Butch sees his creation winning a death battle lol.
I love how it was portrayed and i knew Danny would win.
Jake would totally be the aggressor. He's brash and hot-headed. In hus show he frequently acted without thinking and would have to deal with his actions or be balanced out by his team mates. He wouldn't have believed Danny, presumably cought in the act, even if he'd tried to explain himself. Danny probably wouldn't have seen him as a threat initially until he actually was hurt. More confused than anything but i am surprised he didnt try to explain himselfm. So i like the beginning.
They were surprisingly matched. I felt Jake didnt get a fair shake since his specialty is hand to hand combat, but Danny played the strategy game well.
It seemed Danny was trying to pull his punches at the start. I dont think Danny would have gone for a killing blow, but this is Death Battle after all.
Jake definitely was winning in hand to hand combat actually, Danny actually rarely went in for cqc unless he was caught off guard or felt as if he had the win. Laser blasts are his bread and butter
Miles Morales tried explaining himself to Static. No dice.
Aang tried to explain himself towards Edward Elric. Fell on deaf ears.
JocofAllTrades
Yes, Jake got the hand to hand combat and reflexes experiences though Danny has much more powers he can use.
Also, the original most definitely phased away from his fiery death via the building just in time in order to surprise Jake from behind and the rest is history.
Even if the flames did hit Danny, he endured a much more powerful fiery attack so there’s that as well.
Newgirlde Jake isn’t as hot headed as you think. Because in the episode for his Chinese family reunion (who are all dragons) he had that competition with his one cousin. And during the final one a shark lady came up wanting to talk with Jake about something and Jake saw how she was acting. His cousin right there was hot headed not Jake. Yes at first Jake was hot headed but later on in the series with the choices he had to make he became more level headed in those kinds of situations. But that only used Jake’s feats from season and mainly talked about no feats from season two which would have made this death battle more different. I am happy Danny won but I was actually rooting for Jake even though I grew up watching and loving both characters.
Never mind the fact that Danny gets blamed for crap he didn’t do on a fairly regular basis.
12:41 a lot of writers do that without knowing the actual science behind it. Not that that's a bad thing but it definitely makes fictional characters very OP
Jacob Segura I love that part of the video XD "No we just thought it looked cool"
That definitely leads to a lot of over and under scaling in fiction. While I understand why writers do this, I also would appreciate if writers did more research before giving their characters feats. Like if the character is meant to be just human, having him smash his face through concrete walls without sustaining immediately lethal damage probably shouldn't happen.
ShadeSlayer1911 where's the fun in that though?
@@TheClassicnathan mostly because that would mean that the characters would probably need to be more careful and as such the battles would be more dramatic and dificult if you know the other guy is just a normal human like me and you instead of a basically súper human (like Batman for example)
But mainly is a problem for when people put them in battles (that imo, no one really cares aside for a bunch of nerds who actually give any through to this battles) because then you have a character that is supposed to have a specific power level sudenly being more powerful than a fucking nuke because of that one scene when he did something just because the writer through it was cool
But yeah i understand, that shouldn't stop writers from doing what they want because as i say, no one really cares about vs battles
carso1500 but it's a cartoon though, I doubt kids expecially back during Danny Phantom's airing would have cared about realism expecially when shows like DBZ also aired on Nick
I like how close it was honestly. They're fairly evenly matched. Love both cartoons!
Experience with fighting ghosts was the difference. Danny deals non magical powers a lot; ghost powers involve telekinesis and ectoplasmic energy, which have limits. Jake deals with magical beings who have powers more grounded in common sense; its still magic but it has rules.
Man it really didn't take Danny long to put Jake on ice this spirited battle sure had American Dragon Fans wailing.
It’s great that I found the UA-cam channel of the guy who created my all time favorite shows. Thank you for shaping my childhood, mate. Respect.
I like that they went with the Buff, Western Dragon Jake design for this fight, Eastern Noodle Dragon Jake didn't really mesh with the innate power fantasy of the premise...
Also Butch, how mad would you be if both lost to fellow animated fantasy-protector teen Juniper Lee?
really cool that you're reacting to this, and im glad at who won
Its cool seeing a creator have so much love for a character they created. I love hearing what they think their character would react in a situation, how they would fight etc...
Danny: makes a pun
Butch: Danny is powerless against puns
I have a sudden overwhelming urge to draw Danny Phantom now.
Go nuts pal
I have an urge to rewatch it
Please for the love that all that exists and super heroes please make fan art of Danny Phantom 🖤❤🖤❤🖤❤🖤❤🖤❤🖤❤🖤❤🖤❤🖤❤🖤❤🖤
I subscribed to you hearing that
This was a really good reaction. I hope more stuff like this happens
I love that this death battle got has gotten the Butch Hartman Approval!
Huh, guess Jake didn't live LONG, since Danny WHAILED on him (someone keep adding puns)
Danny wasn't the only one Going Ghost
Man that fight didn't DRAG-ON very long.
I don't understand that pun
😂
This was a lot better than I ex-spectered
Danny Phantom was hands down my favourite Hartman cartoon. So happy to see him pull out the win!
Video:*shows clips from the cartoons*
Butch:"They did a great job with the animation"
Me:"Hmm.They sure did."
11:16 "Very Maleficent-looking dragon!"
I'm glad I wasn't the only one thinking that when I saw it...
I love Danny phantom! You're amazing, Butch!
I LOVE the fact that he was giving an analysis on the ANALYSIS. You're awesome dude! 😁❤
Man, I grew up watching Danny Phantom during my elementary school years and absolutely loved the show.
So awesome to see the creator watch a Death Battle of his own creation, and best yet, to see him actually win!
My vote was for Danny. Seeing new Danny animation made me miss the show.
Danny is not defenseless against puns; he's defenseless against the URGE to make puns.
Me: *hears "Mighty" Playing in the background*
Also Me: I had my suspicions you were a man of culture, now they are confirmed.
Is it just me or does butch seem to be like a wrestling announcer
"Danny's getting some good hits in so is Jake with a few hits".
Somewhere between boxing and golf commentary
The announcer just introduces the wrestlers. You mean a "play by play commentator"
It was nice to watch your reaction to the fight, Butch! They really do a great job with these Death Battles. I was glad when Danny won and I loved watching both cartoons when they were on.
I was expecting this and I was excited for this reaction as well as the death battle.
Seems Jake didn’t last very *LONG!!!* Nice one Danny!
Honestly I just love it when creators can come together and just enjoy each others work. These reactions are always the best when the orginal is a good sport and can appreciate the fan fiction is made!
Now THIS is the type of content I love
Excuse me while I fangirl. I grew up with BOTH of these shows, so you drawing both and all is making me squeal hardcore! I clicked quicker than one could blink haha!!
"The animation looks good!" Literally watching an episode of his own animated series 😂
Danny phantom is one of my favorite shows that Nickelodeon ever had
Same here it deserves to return
Me too and it deserves a sequel
Aftermath: Now Danny has to protect the magical world instead. Way to add to your workload, buddy. 🤣
[Technically Speaking] The next in the line of succession would be Jake´s little sister (then if she dies too, back to his grandfather).
-> The key point here is the (debatable) status of Danny as a "magical" creature or not.
@@adolfodef And this could be the begining of a curious crossover episode where, after clearing the misunderstanding and both feeling guilty, now is Danny's duty to help Jake to find some kind of magical artifact that can recreate a living body from the ashes of the previous one.
@@Krimarihiyama96 or it could go in another way. have dannys new mission to be eradication of the dragon form. hunting down each new successor while attempting to seal the power away
Hey Butch Hartman I’m glad you liked the episode and I really hope you’ll bring the Danny Phantom series back one day soon because I love the show and I know for a fact that a lot of people miss it and want to see it get a fourth season
Got this just as the fight ended during it i was thinking 🤔 what if butch reacted to this
Same.
Love how you had the guys on before and even more impressed you called the ability usage in the middle of the fight. So surprised to see two people I'm subbed to on their own randomly both cross working on properties. Big fan and love how you took them using your beloved property so well.
Never thought I'd see the maker of Danny phantom watch a battle between the himself and the American dragon

To be fair, Jake had the upperhand for the most part of the fight.
James Russi I was the opposite actually XD
I was rooting for Jake but the stats made it clear that Danny was gonna win
Wow. I thought "it would be cool if Butch Hartman reacted to this," but I didn't think he'd actually do it. Nice 👍
Not only do I love videos like this where the creators of something react to or analysis work that uses their own creation, but I love the expanded lore that tends to come out of them, like "Gonna Catch Em All" not being a reference to Pokemon (which is surprising) and Ghost Busters not having any inspirational impact on Danny Phantom either.

My life has had more downs than it has ups and your shows have always made my days better as I still watch them to this day. Hope one day I can meet you in person and personality thank you. Keep up all the fantastic work and thank you again for making my childhood great!
I love the action!! Danny is a really good fighter, if he and Jake Long worked together in something like saving the world or something similar to that, they would make an awesome team.
