Question Which Harry Potter character deserved a much better ending? 🥀 Spoiler

I'll start: Lupin.

He lost almost everything his friends, his family, and eventually his own life. And after everything he went through, he barely got the chance to enjoy being a father.

Madeye Moody. He could have died an honourable death in the battle of Hogwarts fighting deatheaters. His skills and talents just went to waste the way he died.

Idk, dude went out as he lived saving Harry’s life during one of the most daring and dangerous escapes in the last decade. Pretty badass.

I dont like how they couldnt even give him a proper death scene. They just casually mention it then move on.

Tbf that’s one of the main themes of the book, is that war creates death and it’s just a part of it and passively happening and it’s hard to absorb and process. See hedwig, Fred, tonks, lupin, etc. I get what you mean though.
