The last time we discussed why Hermione belonged to Ravenclaw (released on January 8), it sparked a lively discussion among fans, many of whom left messages expressing their thoughts and even helped add some more adequate reasons. Thank you also for your comments! Today, at the request of some readers, I will also talk about Harry Potter himself.
For Harry's assignment to Gryffindor, some fans have long felt that something is wrong, and the following is also based on Hermione's testimony, and some of Harry's testimony proves that he really should go to Slytherin.
Throughout Harry Potter, he was worried about whether he was like Voldemort and whether he should belong to Slytherin. After all, he was a snakebeat like Voldemort. Harry's assignment to Gryffindor always makes people feel wrong, which is not a new topic in the Harry Potter fan base.
Slytherin is described as ambitious, resourceful, determined, and clever. So, how do you find Harry's real home? Let's find out with the words of the "surviving boy" himself.
When he had a heart-wrenching epiphany
"The prophecy says: Either you die or I live, which means that one of them will have to kill the other."
At the end of The Order of the Phoenix, Harry has a realization after discovering the prophecy: in the end, either he dies or Voldemort dies, which also means that one person must kill another. This made Harry realize what kind of person he was and what kind of person he had to be. He had to make up his mind to kill Voldemort or he would be killed.
Does this sentence represent Harry's ambition, resourcefulness, determination, and cleverness? Yes, he realized that he had to have all of them to defeat Voldemort. Of course, he had to be brave enough to defeat Voldemort, but he had to be determined and resourceful enough to do so, and he had to be smart and ambitious enough to kill Voldemort and stop him forever.
When he finally returned to Umbridge
"I'm sorry, Professor, I can't lie."
It was the moment every fan was waiting for: Harry took revenge on Umbridge for torturing hogwarts' children. He used this phrase to express that this was the moment when Harry finally regained power from Umbridge, and letting the centaurs take Umbridge away was probably one of the most satisfying parts of the movie.
This was Slytherin's approach to Harry, as he was actually taking revenge on Umbridge rather than forgiving her. Instead, she was dragged to a place where she might face death, and Harry even did so with a smile on his face, suggesting that he liked to take revenge on her and did what he could.
When he gave advice to his son before he went to Hogwarts
"Albus Severus Potter, your name is taken from the two headmasters of Hogwarts. One of them was Slytherin, and he was the bravest man I knew. ”
At the end of the last Harry Potter film, viewers see the advice his son gave him when he first went to Hogwarts.
The important thing about this statement is that, in addition to its sentimentality, Harry admits that the people of Slytherin can be brave, and this is the moment of Harry's own admission, saying that you can bravely enter Slytherin as he should.
When he reveled in the joy of magic
"I love magic."
In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Harry finally spoke of his love of magic. It's important to know that in this movie, he doesn't spend most of his time in the wizarding world.
This sentence, though simple, represents Harry's understanding of the wizarding world, and at the beginning of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, he knew nothing about it when he first joined the wizarding world. He also knew almost nothing about Slytherin, except that Draco Malfoy had been sorted right ahead of him. This begs the question that Harry was supposed to be A Slytherin, and what would have happened if he hadn't asked not to be assigned to Slytherin?
He pleaded with the Sorting Hat not to choose Slytherin
"Not Slytherin. Not Slytherin. ”
At the beginning of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, we see Draco Malfoy being sorted into Slytherin before the Harry Sorting House. At this point, Harry knew nothing about the different houses, he only knew that he didn't like Draco and therefore didn't want to be assigned to Slytherin, and Harry Potter had some misunderstanding of Slytherin's understanding.
The Sorting Hat heard him say this, thought about what he wanted, and sorted him into Gryffindor. As this sentence implies, Harry always knew where he had chosen to go, so he told his son about it.
When he again suggested his son
"You can choose Gryffindor over Slytherin. The Sorting Cap will consider your options. ”
At the end of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, viewers see the epilogue between the Golden Trio and their children, and even a cameo by Draco and his son. When Harry and Ginny's son, Albus Severus Potter, were nervous about being assigned to Slytherin, Harry responded by quoting this sentence.
This showed that Harry knew he could choose the school he was assigned to, so he chose not to go to Slytherin. Fans know that Albus Severus Potter was assigned to Slytherin, which was what his father was supposed to do.
When he fought against Voldemort
"You are the weak, you never know love and friendship, and I feel sorry for you."
One of Harry Potter's most prominent Slytherin qualities is that he can stick with it no matter what happens. When he bravely confronted Voldemort, said he was weak, said he would never understand love and friendship, and felt sorry for him, it became clear that J.K. Rowling had intentions behind them.
Harry was assigned to Gryffindor for a reason so he could be with the rest of the Golden Trio. Although Ron, Hermione, and Harry had several heated arguments throughout Harry Potter, that was what made him a Gryffindor.
When he said a witty word about the Lucky Potion
"Well, then please go, sir."
In Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Harry reveals the Lucky Potion. He said this to Professor Slughorn, and the audience saw that all of Harry's repression was gone, and saw him as he really was, free of anxiety and self-doubt.
What makes this statement extremely Slytherin is its rudeness, which generally does not come out of Gryffindor's mouth, which is not chivalrous or charismatic, but simply in a way that States the facts in the way Harry wanted, typically in the style of Slytherin.
When he mentioned the legacy of the predators
"I solemnly swear that I have no ill intentions."
In order for the Marauder's Map to appear, Harry had to say this. Although the phrase was created from a marauder's map, Harry seemed to have enjoyed saying it too much, and it was very much in the style of Slytherin.
This sentence suggests that marauder's map is actually something that revolves around cunning and cleverness, so for fans, the phrase is a bit too Slytherin.
When he asked Dumbledore an honest and desperate question
"Is this all true?" Or is it just happening in my head?"
One of the most revealing scenes in the Harry Potter series is the question Harry asks Dumbledore. It was a moment of deep awareness and awareness, and Dumbledore replied, "Of course, this is happening in your mind, Harry, why does that mean it's not real?"
It was one of Harry's smartest realizations, he knew what was going on, and instead of saying anything brave, he asked a simple question that would allow him to gain more knowledge. While coming back from the dead and continuing to fight was part of his bravest act, as Harry had said earlier, the bravest man he knew was a Slytherin student.
