Hogswart Legacy is out, fans are wrestling with the ethics of it, and JK Rowling is burning bridges as she works through personal hate issues.
Meanwhile, Ebuyer admits to being curtain twitching on over 13 million social media public conversations about Harry Potter. It’s taken 12 months.
Top? Luna Lovegood. The most disliked is Dolores Umbridge.

Courtney Williamson, Marketing Manager at Ebuyer and presumably still a Potter-fan, said;
As one of the biggest franchises in the history of pop culture, anticipation is building for what is the first Harry Potter gaming experience in 10 years. For the first time ever, the game will allow players to enter the wizarding world as a character in the 18th century, years before their favourite (and least favourite) characters existed.
With so much conversation buzzing around the game online, we wanted to look into the most loved (and hated) characters in the franchise over the years, to see those which have had a lasting impact on fans for both positive, and negative, reasons.
