The Harry Potter series is notorious for not redeeming its morally ambiguous characters, but this was the entire point of the Boy Who Lived's story.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Harry Potter series is full of morally complex characters who always fall short of redemption. This has been a topic of frustration for years, with characters like Severus Snape and Draco Malfoy never having a moment in which they resolved their faults. Instead, most surrounding the Boy Who Lived seem to fall within a moral grey area.

Severus Snape is an excellent example of this. Audiences spend most of Harry Potter trying to determine whether he is good or bad. In the end, it is revealed that he loved Lily Potter and dedicated his life to protecting her son. However, this didn't change the fact that he had done truly detestable things, both before and after Lily's death. He had tried convincing Voldemort to kill only Lily's family and spare her, proving that he had a distorted understanding of love.

Harry Potter Is Good & Voldemort Is Bad - Everyone Else Is In The Middle Though Harry Potter challenged the standard ideas of morality within the traditional Hero's Journey, it didn't throw the formula entirely out the window. Both Harry and Lord Voldemort fall perfectly within the standard archetype of hero and villain. Harry, a prophecized hero before his birth, was tempted repeatedly but always made the selfless decision to save and protect anyone and everyone.

Hermione Granger was intelligent but closed-minded. She sought black-and-white solutions for complex problems, such as house-elf rights. She was absolutely correct that the normalization of slavery in the wizarding world was a disgrace, but refused to approach the problem in a way that took the opinions of the oppressed into account . Ron Weasley was a loyal friend, but his poor confidence and jealousy caused him to treat others poorly and lash out.
