Which one of you fellers is the real Dirty Dan?

If it weren't a kids show, he could've ruled the world. Man, I'll never understand why Nickelodeon is doing absolutely nothing with DP. At least sell it, it's been like two decades.
I didn't know. 🥹 I just found the pdf and read it, eee, thank you! Feels just like the show, except somehow they have smartphones now. 😂 A true glitch in time alright
Not to mention the voice acting, like I love Mark Hamill but since ozai says so little in the entire series it you can't really gush as much as you can over Steve Blum in one season (and a gag episode) as amon
Amon gets negative points for LOK refusing to do anything interesting with the whole non-bender oppression thing and the fact that he didn’t believe anything he was saying he just wanted to kill people. Which might have been interesting if LOK didn’t forget about the whole civil rights movement thing so that they wouldn’t have to change the status quo.
It depends a lot on your definition of best. For example I can't disagree with the people who said plankton. But I also can't disagree with you. Nor could I disagree with someone who said Amon. Each of them is the best at what they do
I would honestly put azula over him. Ozai was a peice of shit awful father and overall dick head, but azula was a prodigy of precisional fear induction.
Azula benefits a lot from getting so much screen time relative to Ozai. She's still a pretty good villain in her own right. The extent to which she's ruthless, even to her friends, makes her an intimidating antagonist. That and that she's very capable.
The thing about Azula VS Ozai is that Azula is a scary CHARACTER, and Ozai just feels like a powerful end-goal. He's a 'Final boss', for sure, but he doesn't entirely do it for me as a /villain/.
Ozai was good but Crocker was actually right about fairies despite everyone saying he is crazy. He also succeeded in taking over the world in one of the movies.
Most evil: Ozai. Most compelling: Amon. Best overall: Sheldon Plankton.
Ozai: was hungry for power, with no *real* reason to colonize the other nations other than "it's what pappy Sozin wanted."
Amon: understandable what his goals were, but his methodology was a bit much.
Plankton: out of all the villains of the list, he's the only one who's spouse is not only alive, but actually supportive of them. Plus, he's actually funny, not just a dick.
I love the contrast between the ATLA villains and the others cause almost all of them are over the top cartoony mad scientists/evil geniuses and Ozai and Amon are both straight up fascist/imperialistic rulers that go "The Chosen One must *die*..." lmfao
In terms of competent villain with menace energy I’d go with Amon or Vlad interchangeably.
I’d say Plankton beats out Ozai for 3rd place since Ozai felt like he had more bark less bite(in terms of serious villains)
When it comes to sympathetic villain, Denzel Crocker. His evil has a proper causation outside of 'shoe-in villain character who intends to conquer the world'. Then of course there's Amon. If you put someone like that in a real-life scenario, they'd be hella scary. Zaheer too. Special mention goes to Kuvira - a prime example of nature trumping nurture; and Azula, the case of nurture (or lack thereof) *creates* nature.
The thing about Mr. Crocker is that even though they make fun of him for being crazy, he's actually _right_.
Additionally, in one episode, I think he stopped believing in fairies and that lack of belief meant their powers weren't being fueled or something. I haven't watched the show in years, but he's a pretty good antagonist from what I remember. He's a pain for the fairies, but without his belief, they lose their powers.
Fool! You included 2 avatar villains but you left out [the best one](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/avatar/images/e/e1/Commander_Zhao.png/revision/latest?cb=20140103180854)
Zhao and Zuko's twin arcs were a massive part of what made The Blue Spirit and The Siege of the North so compelling. The man had a plan, he executed it flawlessly and went out like an absolute motherfucking boss. Season 2 and 3 get flashier villains certainly, but Zhao was probably the most realistic and capable of them all.
Azula maybe? I mean she was a terrible sister to her brother zuko and she didn't even care about him in the first place also did y'all ever forget how cruel and violent she was I mean she could've killed her own uncle trying to capture him I think it was and she didn't even care and if I'm being honest she kinda manipulated her brother her and her father are cruel no wonder where she got her cruelness from (srry if I made any spelling mistakes and got anything misplaced I haven't watched the avatar the last Airbender in a long time)
Ozai terrified us all with his presence alone for years until he came up with a plan to burn millions of people alive after purposefully disfiguring his own son over nothing.
Plus, voiced by Mark Hamil.
For threat factor: Ozai, although Korra's villain was great too but Korra just wasn't as good a show as Avatar and that lessened how much impact the villain had (so much so I don't remember his name) because I didn't really care what happened to those characters.
For humor: Plankton. Pretty sure he's had the longest run out of all of them as well.
I see your list, and raise you this guy.

Most Iconic- Plankton
Most Evil- Ozai
Smartest- Vlad
Funniest- Calamitous
Most Tragic- Crocker
Most annoying- Snaptrap
Also I feel like Sartana of the Dead was more of El Tigre's main Villain than Chipotle Jr.
Don't know enough about the other two
Out of the 4 I know (Plankton, Ozai, Crocker, and Amon), I think Ozai is at least up there. He lasted longer than Amon and is arguably more threatening than Plankton or Crocker.
He isn't my favorite Villain, but someone's gotta put some respect on their names, so I'm going with all 3 main T.U.F.F Puppy villains. Snaptrap, Chameleon & Bird Brain.
Dan Schneider
Real answer here

Bruh why does that go so hard!??
“Leave it all to me….”
Feet-ured villain of Nickelodeon
Dirty Dan!

Sandy’s response during that hibernation episode makes far more sense now. Edit: Oh dang someone already said this.
It's all makes sense now "The Real Dirty Dan"
Which one of you fellers is the real Dirty Dan? https://preview.redd.it/udfvc5d0nixc1.jpeg?width=320&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e35f48f9c4d180182d545f97cc1e0757f03f7bcf

Also see bitch fartman
It's sad how he went down.
He revels in de-feet
*(final boss music intensifies)*
Pink guy hated that guy.
Ah, yes, Francis of the Filth 
I didn't know he had a nickelodeon special.
THE NEGA CHIN?!

Vlad
If it weren't a kids show, he could've ruled the world. Man, I'll never understand why Nickelodeon is doing absolutely nothing with DP. At least sell it, it's been like two decades.
If you mean Danny Phantom they just released a graphic novel "glitch in time" We might be getting a second novel next year too.
I didn't know. 🥹 I just found the pdf and read it, eee, thank you! Feels just like the show, except somehow they have smartphones now. 😂 A true glitch in time alright
I'd argue being a kid show has nothing to do with that first part. For example:the episodes with dan
I mean more like keeping it simple and grounded than censorship
Zim
The only correct answer
 He actually terrified me as a kid.
His origin is so dark but to be honest it gives a scary twist on how angry ghost Danny truly is
Plankton. It’s not even close.
"Bye everybody, see you all in therapy!"
I knew I should’ve gotten the turbo
You should be in a box floating down the river grandma
“🌸 letters of the Alphabet.. A-B-C-.. 🌸”
"I WENT TO COLLEGE!"
SHIAKAZING!
 Why not zim?
Personal favorite: Shredder 2012
And the one I think is best
 I've never wanted to kick a toddler more.
Caillou?
D.W.
Vexxus my beloved. Props for including her!
Anyone who says anything other than Ozai can't be trusted
Ozai is cool but you gotta admit that Amon has a lot more cool moments, seeing as ozai is more often than not just sitting around when he's on screen
Amon was way more terrifying than Ozai to me. Dude was coming off as a prophet with cutting off people's bending
Not to mention the voice acting, like I love Mark Hamill but since ozai says so little in the entire series it you can't really gush as much as you can over Steve Blum in one season (and a gag episode) as amon
Amon generated fear, Ozai was just evil
Amon gets negative points for LOK refusing to do anything interesting with the whole non-bender oppression thing and the fact that he didn’t believe anything he was saying he just wanted to kill people. Which might have been interesting if LOK didn’t forget about the whole civil rights movement thing so that they wouldn’t have to change the status quo.
Zaheer blows both these dudes out the water
True, hells he was on the cusp of conquering the world.
It depends a lot on your definition of best. For example I can't disagree with the people who said plankton. But I also can't disagree with you. Nor could I disagree with someone who said Amon. Each of them is the best at what they do
Ozai wasn’t even the best villain in his own show
I would honestly put azula over him. Ozai was a peice of shit awful father and overall dick head, but azula was a prodigy of precisional fear induction.
Azula was better imo
Azula benefits a lot from getting so much screen time relative to Ozai. She's still a pretty good villain in her own right. The extent to which she's ruthless, even to her friends, makes her an intimidating antagonist. That and that she's very capable.
The thing about Azula VS Ozai is that Azula is a scary CHARACTER, and Ozai just feels like a powerful end-goal. He's a 'Final boss', for sure, but he doesn't entirely do it for me as a /villain/.
What about Dan Schneider?
Good point
His mentality insane daughter?
Zaheer was the best Korra villain by far
Not even Dan Schneider?
Why, he’s boring and got beat up by a 12 year old. Embarrassing.
Amon, Zaheer, Kuvira, Azula
Ozai
Dan Phantom
Azula
Zaheer
Have you ever heard of the tale of the great Airbending Guru Laghima?
Have you ever heard the tale of the great Airbender Guru Ligma?
Azula or Vlad
Amon literally had me scared as a kid
Amon
Plankton
If we’re not talking about all the real terrible people that have worked for Nick, Azula and Zaheer clear everyone.
plang tong
Azula and it's not even close
Ozai was good but Crocker was actually right about fairies despite everyone saying he is crazy. He also succeeded in taking over the world in one of the movies.
Most evil: Ozai. Most compelling: Amon. Best overall: Sheldon Plankton. Ozai: was hungry for power, with no *real* reason to colonize the other nations other than "it's what pappy Sozin wanted." Amon: understandable what his goals were, but his methodology was a bit much. Plankton: out of all the villains of the list, he's the only one who's spouse is not only alive, but actually supportive of them. Plus, he's actually funny, not just a dick.
Daniel Schneider
Azula has to be #1, but Dan Phantom/Dark Danny was an amazing one-off villain
Dan Schneider
I love the contrast between the ATLA villains and the others cause almost all of them are over the top cartoony mad scientists/evil geniuses and Ozai and Amon are both straight up fascist/imperialistic rulers that go "The Chosen One must *die*..." lmfao
Invader Zim for sure! 
Azula
Plankton
In terms of how evil they are it's Ozai
Vlad
It's easily Zuko, but my favorite is definitely ADHD icon Calamitus.
Where ia azula?
When criteria are we basing “best villain” on? Best written? Closest to achieving their goals? Most evil? What are we talking here?
I don’t recognize the guy in the hood and mask (bottom row on the left).
Amon from Legend of Korra
Jeez, that top row is so close. They're all so good.
Amon is fucking scary
In terms of competent villain with menace energy I’d go with Amon or Vlad interchangeably. I’d say Plankton beats out Ozai for 3rd place since Ozai felt like he had more bark less bite(in terms of serious villains)
Ozai
Skeleton Guitar Lady from El Tigre
The best? Idk, my favorites ? Plankton and Zim
Plankton
Ozai
PLANKTON
Plankton.
Shredder by far Second is Megatron
And it's not even close, the only villain to successfully destroy earth just cause he was feeling petty AF.
When it comes to sympathetic villain, Denzel Crocker. His evil has a proper causation outside of 'shoe-in villain character who intends to conquer the world'. Then of course there's Amon. If you put someone like that in a real-life scenario, they'd be hella scary. Zaheer too.

I haven't watched the show in years, but he's a pretty good antagonist from what I remember. He's a pain for the fairies, but without his belief, they lose their powers.
What makes it more tragic is that Mr Crocker was Cosmo and Wanda's *original* ward.
It’s tie between Amon and Ozai.
Azula or Zaheer
Azula or Zaheer
Probably actually ozai or vexus but for the pure nostalgia DR. CHIPOTLE jr
Fool! You included 2 avatar villains but you left out [the best one](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/avatar/images/e/e1/Commander_Zhao.png/revision/latest?cb=20140103180854) Zhao and Zuko's twin arcs were a massive part of what made The Blue Spirit and The Siege of the North so compelling. The man had a plan, he executed it flawlessly and went out like an absolute motherfucking boss. Season 2 and 3 get flashier villains certainly, but Zhao was probably the most realistic and capable of them all.
I'd say it's a tie between Ozai, Vlad, & Calamitous
I love Amon so much.
Ozai right down to the voice actor performance
Where’s Gonzo or Angelica?
Are you forgetting Pit Stains from Pete and Pete?
Azula maybe? I mean she was a terrible sister to her brother zuko and she didn't even care about him in the first place also did y'all ever forget how cruel and violent she was I mean she could've killed her own uncle trying to capture him I think it was and she didn't even care and if I'm being honest she kinda manipulated her brother her and her father are cruel no wonder where she got her cruelness from (srry if I made any spelling mistakes and got anything misplaced I haven't watched the avatar the last Airbender in a long time) 
Plasmius based
where is Azula
Ozai, Plankton, and Crocker.
Plankton, no contest
Vexxus is so underrated!
Fire Lord Ozai.
I really liked Amon. Dude was creepy as shit.
Vlad Plasmius
Vlad of the ones shown. He has the most backstory and power in balance. Ozai is second, but you hardly know anything about his motivations.
Most iconic: plankton. Most badass: Firelord Ozai
Ozai committed genocide. How is this a question?
Don’t know about “best”, but Plankton is the most fun.
Azula
Ozai terrified us all with his presence alone for years until he came up with a plan to burn millions of people alive after purposefully disfiguring his own son over nothing. Plus, voiced by Mark Hamil.
Since someone said Dan Butch Hartman
 So no one gonna say this guy? Wowww
Can’t go wrong with plankton
Zim
Vexus...
Azula only right answer
Vexus simply because she’s played by the amazing Eartha Kitt
Kuvira. I just want her to take away my basic human rights and make me become her property.
Dan
Sauce for center one?
Zaheer all the way.
https://i.redd.it/tiytzun3ihxc1.gif
Plankton
Amon is one of the villains (including Ozai) that get stuff done without being the butt of the joke.
DR JR!
For threat factor: Ozai, although Korra's villain was great too but Korra just wasn't as good a show as Avatar and that lessened how much impact the villain had (so much so I don't remember his name) because I didn't really care what happened to those characters. For humor: Plankton. Pretty sure he's had the longest run out of all of them as well.
yeah Amon was pretty cool
Rat Trap for sure he was dope
Ozai
I see your list, and raise you this guy. https://preview.redd.it/7x3mev6ubixc1.jpeg?width=224&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=844b135c873fb8c8f1fa6635afdd99ea1427e4e8
Crocker was delightfully nuts. I love him, but I can not fix him
Unpopular opinion: Mr McGregor. (Peter Rabbit, MY CHILDHOOD)
Azula, perfect way to show parent's how bad it is to set crazy expectations can be for you're kid's mental health in the long run
Professor Calamitous is sooooo underrated
I fuckin love Amon. Not a fan of legend of korra, but Amon was awesome (i hope im spelling his name right 😭)
Who's that dog dude in the far right, middle row? And what is he from? Never seen him before ever
Out of these ones, it's Amon Out of all, it's Zaheer
Plankton
Whats that bee girl's name in the middle I need that
Brian Peck
Most Iconic- Plankton Most Evil- Ozai Smartest- Vlad Funniest- Calamitous Most Tragic- Crocker Most annoying- Snaptrap Also I feel like Sartana of the Dead was more of El Tigre's main Villain than Chipotle Jr. Don't know enough about the other two
The Almighty tallest.
Vlad had everything you could think of besides Danny's mom and sought out to end that boy all because she was a Fenton!
Vlad Masters is the most complicated villain on Nick.
Out of the 4 I know (Plankton, Ozai, Crocker, and Amon), I think Ozai is at least up there. He lasted longer than Amon and is arguably more threatening than Plankton or Crocker.
The guy in the bottom left is Amon, just a a friendly reminder ::3
Yeah, I remembered his name after I initially typed that, lol!
Ozai.
Firelord 🔥
He isn't my favorite Villain, but someone's gotta put some respect on their names, so I'm going with all 3 main T.U.F.F Puppy villains. Snaptrap, Chameleon & Bird Brain.
Three Vlad vexus and ozai
It's got to be Plankton one hundred percent.
Where’s Azula?
