One the topic of HP speed, I'm fairly sure this is the best calced feat we have:
Voldemort's Flight Speed
I don't know if this feat has been calc'ed yet, I haven't seen one and there is no mention of it in his profile. Please let me know if it's already done. This feat is about Voldemort interrogating and disposing Grindelwald at the Nurmengard Prison then immediately flying back to Malfoy Manor to...www.fanverse.org
It's worse considering looking at it, the books say he didn't even fly the entire way, just enough to get out of the Anti-Apparation field and then Apparated to the Malfoy Manor after that.
The second calc is for Voldemort flying from Nurmengard to the Channel, the Apparation part isn't relevant to it.
I don't have the books at hand, but from what's discussed in the calc thread the problem isn't an anti disapparation jinx blocking Voldemort, but the distance being too great for apparation, hence him flying most of the way.

you could read wet cardboard cereal box ingredients and it would be more worth your time
Better to get them to read an actually acclaimed book series, so they can truly see just how badly HP pales in comparison.
I've literally seen people arguing HP is better than LOTR, and that LOTR is bad in general.> Potter-tards: Harry Potter is a great series, with amazing characters and a wonderfully told story!

Just saying that's not an instant fix, these people are fucking delusional.
Arguing with what exactly? HP has nothing over Lord of the Rings.I've literally seen people arguing HP is better than LOTR, and that LOTR is bad in general.

Not a whole lot, like I said they are delusional.Arguing with what exactly? HP has nothing over Lord of the Rings.
I mean I think The Dresden Files is a legitimately great series (way fucking better than Harry Potter and certain other massively overrated fantasy series that were adapted into TV series but that's another discussion) but I still wouldn't argue it's on par with Lord of the Rings.
Speaking of HP, it's not vs related, but it is funny and embarrassing, so I feel the need to point out the non-European magical schools are made via Google translate.

Riordan is better than JK. Because even if his writing is going woke like she did. Even at his worst his writing still had redeeming qualities.
Riordan is better than JK. I'll fully agree on that, even considering some of his sloppier moments in writing, like burying Heracles' - Oh, I'm sorry, Hercules' - character for the sake of his made up character Zoe Nightshade to give her a 'tragic' backstory. Or the time he made it so Nico wasn't mad at Percy for letting his sister die, but because he had a gay crush on him that wasn't reciprocated.
Even putting nostalgia aside I never understood why Harry Potter is that beloved these days ?
I love power rangers as a kid and even to this I still love the series
I stopped caring about Harry Potter god knows when

Fangirls. Mostly.
Websites like Dark Lord Potter. Also, lmao. Harry Potter ever having the balls to become one.
It's the same reason why places like SB are desperate to keep Twilight alive.
There's a tiny group of vocal fans that are still obsessed with them.
Avada Kadavra vs Body Armor
Meh, if the answer is no, that's fine. I'm happy enough with the current one if that turns out to be the case.
forums.spacebattles.com (Potterverse) You Must Enforce The Wizard Registration Act
Yes because (insert followers of an abrahamic faith here) are idiots, no one can call magic unholy because prophets pulled that sort of shit all the time!
forums.spacebattles.com so 2016 is about when SB stopped having half a brain, cause Wizards vs Mages was the last reasonable thread involving people shooting down HP
i know we said this before but idk how could anyone give a shit about it in the year of 2022
There's a reason why Ender's Game sticks more to my mind than any Harry Potter book. Really goes to show that Harry Potter is as deep as a puddle when I can only remember fragments when with Ender's Game, I can virtually remember even the little details... or that Ender will fucking END YOU in a fight.
I remember actually choosing to read that on my own for my English class and was surprised just how much I enjoyed it and felt it really hit me with its attempts to be deep unlike whatever I saw with most of HP's or other YA "writers".
Yep, like I said, that shit will get you fucking deep and it's honestly surprising at how engaging it is. Orson is a man of his time and the book fucking let's you know it.
