triwizard champion
you mean the tournament where all his real competition was taken out by voldemort?
You don’t win the Daytona 500 without a few cars wrecking
A win is a win.
The books imply that Harry doesn’t find Hermione very attractive. (Remember: Hermione isn’t Emma Watson.)
fake: The books forgot Hermiones buck teeth gay: Harry doesn’t find Emma Watson attractive.
Don’t forget ron was also British
So was Harry?
Harry was from Surrey doesnt count.
Im a Californian I am just talking shit with no backing.
Surrey is as British as it gets!
Surry is the shire.
I imagine most Americans picture something like Surrey when they imagine rural England.
They all were?
Harry potter doesn’t really fit into the chosen one archetype any more than anyone else. The only person that “chose” him is his mom, which makes him equally special to almost every other person on the planet.
Anyway, fuck jk rowling
Trelawney made a prophecy and Voldemort decided Harry fit the bill, although Neville also met the criteria. Voldemort went to the Potter house to kill Harry, end his biggest rival before he could grow up, and create a horcrux from the murder of his enemy. Voldemort chose Harry.
Also these books are so fucking racist. “Cho chang”. We should stop talking about them.
“Seamus Finnigan”
“Kingsley Shacklebolt”
Potatofamine carbomb
Holy shit, I didn’t even consider this one until now…
So much writing has been done about how Cho Chang is a perfectly reasonable name that I don’t even understand how it’s still out there. It’s amazing how disinformation Never Dies.
It would have been funny af to watch Neville Longbottom as the main character of the series and the marketing hype train having to tiptoe the last name. I know Harry Potter as a name sounds better but imagine everyone dressing up as Neville for Halloween
The only person that “chose” him is his mom, which makes him equally special to almost every other person on the planet.
Honestly it’s kinda fucked that in the HP universe, apparently no other mother than Lily loved their child enough to sacrifice themselves and use this love protection magic on them.
That’s only in the movies though. In the books, Harry is around same height as Ron but lankier.
Wait, does it explicitly write that somewhere?
Yeah iirc quidditch scenes. When Ron joins the team
I genuinely think the author just put those two together because they knew everyone was expecting Harr-mione to happen. Tried to subvert expectations.
IIRC, she said it was wish fulfillment on her part, with Hermione standing in for JKR and Ron being like someone JKR liked when she was younger.
I mean, she was very reactionary with her writing book to book.
Harry Potter connoisseurs bragging around a greentext. Typical beta move.
Harry is a rich kid who grows up to be a cop, his track of rejection makes sense
