..Lynae's real name ? I don't think we'll ever learn it in canon

Joanne recently implied that someone who called her out was just throwing a tantrum because she made more money than them (Rowling getting humiliated on Twitter/X, as usual : r/EnoughJKRowling). It's not the first time she bragged about her money like she thought it was a witty comeback (Yeah, yeah, we get it, you're rich and insufferable : r/EnoughJKRowling) and I know we talked about her classism before, but I wanted to know - why do she often bring up her being rich when people call her out ?

Personally I think she just's a classist who thinks she's trolling people. Or she's so disconnected from reality that she doesn't take the hint that advertising your classism to others is not good if you want to continue being seen as a "defender of women's rights"

What do you think ?

I've read it and I feel like OOP basically summarized the reasons I preferred WHA over Harry Potter now that Joanne showed her true colors

What do you think ?

I read somewhere that some sharks have strong social bonds and can even recognize humans - I was surprised when I read that because while I know they're not mindless evil killing machines, I still believed they weren't that social

For those who don't know, it seems not unlike Harry Potter at first glance - a little girl who lived as a Muggle becomes a witch and learns magic

It's where the similarities end though. In Witch Hat Atelier, everyone can do magic as long as they have the right tools, but wizards hide the truth - not because they look down on Muggles or they don't want to be bothered by them, but because in the distant past magic had catastrophic consequences in the hands of ill-intentioned or reckless people, to the point that it sometimes changed the geography, until wizards decided to restrict the use of magic. While those who want to restrict magic have a point, the narrative shows that it's not always a good thing (for instance when a spell could heal people but it's considered forbidden by the authorities because it modifies the body and it can end badly if misused).

While wizards can't reveal to Muggles that technically everyone could do magic, they still live and interact with them, even selling enchanted objects

POC, disabled and queer characters are allowed to exist without being tokens or half-assed attempts to look progressive - given how Harry Potter fans reacted to Snape being black in the upcoming HBO series, I don't want to think about their reaction if they read WHA💀 The author doesn't make the error of making character's disabilities disappear with magic, they need to adapt to living with them

It would be too long to list everything that make Witch Hat Atelier superior compared to Rowling's tale of how a jock became a slave-owning cop, so I recommend reading the manga (I'll probably talk about it again in this sub in the future)

I wanted to talk about one last thing though : In Harry Potter, boys being roofied is treated as funny (like with Ron) or something less severe than it actually is (Tom Riddle Senior got blamed for not staying with Merope even though she basically kidnapped him). In WHA, there is chapter tackling SA and victim blaming where the Knight Moralis (the equivalent of the Aurors) arrest a pervert and I thought "wow, the Knights would hate Fred and George selling love potions" - love potions are the epithome of the kind of magic the authorities in Witch Hat Atelier would ban and consider forbidden magic !
