The Harry Potter books are honestly one of the greatest ever written and Harry Potter is one of the best fictional characters ever. In fact, Harry comes in my top ten favourite fictional characters.

Harry potter: *has perfect ending*
Cursed child: I'm about to end this mans whole career

[greta]

First and last lines of all 7 Harry Potter books:


*Sorcerer's Stone:*
-"Mr. and Mrs. Dursley of number four, Privet Drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much."
-"I'm going to have a lot of fun with Dudley this summer . . ."
*Chamber of Secrets:*

-"Not for the first time, an argument had broken out over breakfast at number four, Privet Drive."
-"And together they walked back through the gateway to the Muggle world."
*Prisoner of Azkaban:*

-"Harry Potter was a highly unusual boy in many ways."
-"And, grinning broadly at the look of horror on Uncle Vernon's face, Harry set off toward the station exit, Hedwig rattling along in front of him, for what looked like a much better summer than the last."
*Goblet of Fire:*
-"The villagers of Little Hangleton still called it 'the Riddle House, ' even though it had been many years since the Riddle family had lived there."

-"As Hagrid had said, what would come, would come . . . and he would have to meet it when it did."
*Order of the Phoenix:*
-The hottest day of the summer so far was drawing to a close and a drowsy silence lay over the large, square houses of Privet Drive."
-"Instead he smiled, raised a hand in farewell, turned around, and led the way out of the station toward the sunlit street, with Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia, and Dudley hurrying along in his wake."
*Half-Blood Prince:*
-"It was nearing midnight and the Prime Minister was sitting along in his office, reading a long memo that was slipping through his brain without leaving the slightest trace of meaning behind."
-"His hand closed automatically around the fake Horcrux, but in spite of everything, in spite of the dark and twisting path he saw stretching ahead for himself, in spit of the final meeting with Voldemort he knew must come, whether in a month, in a year, or in ten, he felt his heart lift at the thought that there was still one last golden day of peace left to enjoy with Ron and Hermione."
*Deathly Hallows:*
-"The two men appeared out of nowhere, a few yards apart in the narrow, moonlight lane."
-"The scar had not pained Harry for 19 years. All was well."


lol that was long and random

I would genuinely watch “The life of Harry James Potter” even if it was an hour long.

[lukebaxter]

This video truly does sum up why Harry is possibly my favourite character of all time. The trials he goes through and the people he formed relationships with helped shape him to become a better person. He's the perfect example of a character that can inspire people of any age.

[ogreenmango]

Dude why... You make me wanna cry after EVERY video, and make me want to watch all of your videos all over again. Your too good! But I love you and never change! I hope you like doing what your doing in college and remember. You will ALWAYS be my favorite youtuber!

[noursherif]

I just can't understand how some people dislike him or just likes Draco and Snape more than him.
He's gone through the worst life ever in the franchise and still manages to be an amazing, kind, and selfless hero.
He's just so.... underrated. He's my favorite character, I can't fathom into words how much I love him

[harshalshinde]

dont know how you manage to give best quality content in your every videos. YOU ARE AT TOP OF YOUR GAME !
things i like in your videos
1) choice of music.. soundtrack changes according to topic or situation . and you know what audio to play when.
2) narrative structure . you have great potential to be a great director.
3) repeat value. your videos can be watched again and again.
4)you just don't tell story of characters, you provide deep analysis of each.
5) you know which scene to show audience to make them connect with context of the video

[rohitsawant]

James Potter: Lilly Evans
Harry Potter: Ginny Weasley
Is there like a tradition of the Potter family that they have to marry red heads?

[XuletiiTa]

How the oscars should have ended:
The winner goes to...
Morgan!!

[anisulislam]

You have to feel for Harry. He lost his parents at the age of 1. He was raised like a pile of dirt, he lost everyone he loved. He loved Sirius, Remus, Dumbledore, Tonks, Fred and they all died. I don't know why he bothered being alive after losing so many loved ones

[tommythe_tree]

He is so smart, I bet he will be a great writer one day J.K. Rowling’s level I think.

[koolaidjammer]

Dude, you are the BEST HP YouTuber out there right now. Keep up the good work. ❤️

[anjalimaharjan]

Wow just wow..not underestimating other youtubers of Harry Potter here but I've to say that Morgan, you're the best of all. Everytime you upload your video, I get fascinated by your presentation and overall everything. Great video once again, in fact the best video. I wish you a good health.

Your wellwisher,
Anjali❤

It amazes me that Harry is the main protagonist yet the most forgotten character in the series
