He's told that there's no legal consequences for "blowing up" one's aunt because the goverment feels sorry for him for another unrelated cause. The wizard government has to bail her out and he just runs away-thankfully to school early but his relatives really think he's going to truly run away and he lets them think that. Harry steals a lollipop with absolutely no just motivation-I'm guessing the goal is to show you where he is when he's invisible (he's not supposed to be on the field trip because he doesn't have a signature on his permission slip), snoops as well as being nosy in person (trying to grab something from Hermione, and she slaps his hand back), and refuses to apologize for terrorizing a relative by being extremely rude with no solutions out of it: kind of a step down for him from being the underdog you sympathize with. I had to bump the stars down because they don't have anything going for them this time around. ![]() All three children are poor role models this time. ![]() It's not the only time he's harassed, another time the main character goes invisible and torments him (it's mostly playful thankfully). Another one is just a kid with some pride issues and he's crying and begging for mercy and they punch him while he's in a vulnerable position saying "that felt good" and talk about how awesome it was. At first I thought the main character Harry wanted to make sure he had a fair trial by asking people not to kill him, but it became apparent that he wanted a more intense death-just for being a tattle tale. You have two bad (but not truly evil, I'll save that for the Dark Lord and his most devoted sneaky followers) characters begging for mercy and one of them is very insecure and they want to destroy his soul, an assassination isn't good enough for him. ![]() However the questionable morals become a bit more on the nose, and as I said it's filled with character flaws and poor role models. The violence is pretty much the same, I didn't think it was darker, except a possessed character who sounds like she has multiple spirits in her as she's uttering a prophecy.
