its funny that they want a sham version of harry potter. a version that is just some other troon approved corpo think tank emulating surface level elements of a woman's hard work an innate self expression made manifest in ink an paper. im also so happy that the one franchise they all loved is ruined. i think they loved hp more than any of us like the hobbies they ruined, its an eternal L.
For a while my theory's been that Rowling saw one too many things like this
-and read (we know she knows her way about online more than the average Ma) one too many Snape rape fan-fiction of the 46,0000 uploaded daily, and just thought, I need to toxify this shit Now.
Lmao that poor guy in the costume though.
The brokeness of that line "I haven't even seen Harry Potter".
I couldn't find the video I was looking for but of course there was plenty other shit tier themed hp weddings to pick from.
Like she was like "I need to help these people this is cringe as shit. Read another book. "
Kek they are saying she stole the Worst Witch? Please. I read those books when I was a kid. Probably moments before picking up Harry Potter, given as you'd read things again and again.
In no way did it ever occur that Harry Potter was in any way similar.
The worst witch was a kind of classic, much more old fashioned, pre 50s style of boarding school story, of which there were loads of, and basically all crap. The worst witch was better than the other stuff due to having the element of witches to perk it up, but it was a totally different genre. Harry potter was a sort of kitchen sink fantasy novel, not that tripe.

Also it's not like you could say the worst witch is some unknown property whose idea was magpie-stolen up and exploited by some corpro entity. It had a good few seperate TV adaptions over a lot of years, including fairly recently (moreso even than the 90s one so mean).
It was well known and loved but it ahd a limit because there wasn't a whole lot there. It was just school stories.
The woman who wrote it doesn't own the concept of magic and school.
The idea of the neophyte is ancient as fuck, you illiterate pricks.
