There was two times, he used proper curses:
In book 5 he tries to use Crucio to torture Beatrix Lestrange, but she shows him and tortures him instead, as a little boy doesnt know how to torture.
In book 6 he used Sectumsempra on Malfoy without knowing what it is and seemingly completely oblivious to the fact that most spells are just latin word. Subsequently Malfoy almost dies of bloodloss, everyone is chocked how Harry is using dark arts all of a sudden, but Dumbledore bails him out as always.
Book seven, he uses imperius curse on some random goblin.
(Possibly just film? Haven't reread in many a year)
He also uses crucio in book 7, when one of the carrows spits on mcgonnagal, iirc
Nah that's in the books too
Doesn't that spell even break the rules of the setting? What I'm meaning is that with basically all other spells, just saying the words isn't enough, there's a mental element to it, which is related to what the spell is supposed to do. So, casting a spell without knowing what it does should be impossible.
I love Harry Potter but facing the facts it is very badly crafted and full of inconsistencies like this.
Obligatory: JKR turned out to be a horrible person and dies not deserve any of our money or attention.
"I fear not the wizard who has practiced 10,000 spells once, but I fear the wizard who has practiced one spell 10,000 times."
Actually Harry also used Expecto Patronum alot (aka, the deus ex machina spell that can do anything and give you a blowjob at the same time)
So he had 2 go to spells.
Trying to apply logic to JKR's writing leads to madness.
The fanfic that tried to apply logic to JKR's writing lead to an actual, real life murder.
O.o wait what.
Please explain
You mean the one by the AI wackjob/rationality cultist?

No he found the spell that was cracked and just spammed it. Why wouldn't you it's the best spell. Insta stunlock, no counter. He did the meta build
It happens three times, if we count the one when he was 1 year old
So they used a charm instead of a spell?
Also how gilderoy lockheart is defeated
That pic made me laugh way too hard
Obligatory JK Rowling is a bad person. Don’t support her or the Harry Potter series.
I always like to include the addendum that she's also a bad writer. It's great when people are excited to read, but success is not an indicator of quality.
and as always, if people do enjoy the stories, get the books or movies second hand. don't let her earn a cent from it
I tried reading them as a kid and thought they were shit then. I realise now the biggest problems I had with it were the total absence of brick jokes (or whatever the literary equivalent is), the utter refusal to engage in foreshadowing, and the lack of character development.
"Harry Potter isn't as good as you thought when you read it in grade school. Hottest take"
Hbomberguy
eh, they're not great, but not the worst thing ever. ive seen worse debut novels (id argue that the divergent series is worse, though i enjoy it far too much lmao). the series is definitely ruined because of rowling's awfulness.
Do make plenty of memes pointing out the myriad plotholes and the nonsensical developments/elements! I hear she just LLLOVES that;) (the only sarcasm here is "LLLOVES").
