From the moment you first opened a Harry Potter book or watched the movie, you were in for a real emotional journey. Highs, lows, laughter, and tears . . . J.K. Rowling certainly knows how to make people feel all the feels. The original magical series might be over, but Potter fans will always remember certain moments that left us especially emotional. Let's reminisce about them, shall we?
The first time you ever picked up a Harry Potter book.
And Hogwarts quickly became your favorite escape.
When somebody interrupted your reading.
Every time the trio gets themselves into another dangerous situation.
When Malfoy acts like a little snot . . . So basically the entire series.
Every time Dolores Umbridge steps onto the screen (or page).
Overhearing people talking about Harry Potter.
. . . But then their conversation turns out to be wrong.
Every time Voldemort shows up.
When parts of the movies differ from the books.
When Cedric dies and the whole series gets really, really dark.
Because then Sirius dies . . .
Then Dumbledore . . .
Basically, everybody you love dies.
When Ron and Hermione FINALLY get together.
And we learn Snape has been good the whole time.
When all the plot mysteries are solved, and you're in awe of J.K. Rowling's brilliance.
When Harry finally defeats Voldemort and "all was well."
When you still try to convince people to start the series.
Especially when they tell you they've only seen the movies.
When somebody says the series is just "not that good."
Or when somebody mentions there won't be any more Harry Potter books.
When you delve back into the series years later.
Or finish your 100th Harry Potter marathon and aren't ready to go back to the Muggle world.
When you found out you can attend real wizarding school.
Seriously, the College of Wizardry is real.
When Kim Kardashian tried to steal Draco's hairstyle.
Only a Malfoy could pull off that look.
Finally, when you remember the good news about Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
It's getting made into a movie, people!
