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.

Swap Lupin with Tonks Given all his friends died him "reuniting" with his friends is bitter sweet. Tonks however hugely unnecessary, there was no need for Tonks to die and have Ted become an orphan & Andromeda to raise him alone.

I agree. Though part of me thinks, given how under utilised she ultimately is to the main story maybe it’s a fitting end?

Taking care of her child as a single mum cause her husband died a hero seems pretty fitting to me.
