this is great

for some reason I held off on reading this for months, I feel kinda stupid now.

Sweet.

His friends are pests. It’s taking away from the plot.

Aight, I'll probably stop reading here, since this is just canon Harry Potter with a more detached Harry. The whole plot about him being a natural legilemens, different House, different personality - none if it actually matters and I feel like I'm reading two stories. One is canon HP, following almost every canon event with no change and the second is yours, which ultimately has no meaning here because it doesn't change anything.

Recently, I've been finding surprisingly good HP fanfics to read, which I consider this one to be also. I like that you changed some characters, especially Harry. How you captured the surrealness if a little boy being so talented at magic, a bit terrifying. It's not on the nose, like some authors (young, probably) like to do with their Harry being proficient at wandless magic, throwing fireballs, turning into a dragon and generally being cringe at the tender age of 11. No, your Harry reads like an emotionally detached, abused child. As per long-standing fanfiction tradition, you made the Dursleys much more abusive than they were, but it has a purpose here to explain why Harry is the way he is and finally gives Dumbledore a push to get him out (I also think your Dumbledore would've done it a lot sooner, considering he kept tabs on Harry, because of how different Harry's situation was). I really don't like that you just ruined all of it by following the canon events, including whole dialogues from the book, even if with slight changes. I don't understand why people do that. Still an amazing read I'll be sure to enjoy more to make my mind about it.

Anyway, I get it. It was Dumbledore who made that note and is pretending to be Grindelwald because he realized Harry was becoming less than completely sincere with him. That would have been a really genius move on his part.

Hello, I'm contacting you because I really like this fanfic and I would like to publish it on my YouTube channel, the channel is about content in Spanish... if you give me permission I can share your patreon. I am looking forward to your response.

What chapter does the dark harry start?

Brilliant updates

Binged all 37 current chapters in a few days. Love the story so far. Looking forward to updates with great interest.

Wow how retarded does one have to be to write such trash. I had hope from the second half of chapter one, but that's gone now. I will spell it out so anyone with 2 brain cells can understand the issue. This story is about Harry using and becoming good in the mind arts, which requires a stable mind and strong willpower but the problem is that the character has a weak unstable mind and uses the mind arts like a natural while his mentality develops in a sideways manner thus far not to mention that the maturity level is also very low which is another negative in terms of mental ability and control. The story doesn't work and isn't realistic in the slightest with such glaring contradictions. Another zero IQ story to drop and onto most likely another of similar quality as I have yet to find anything that isn't just immature teenage wish fulfillment or just plain idiocy that doesn't work. I Have seen one or two that have potential but quickly loses that do to more immaturity in the form of sluts and whores for most of if not all of the female characters.

Ok, chapter 1 was much better than I previously thought.

it's dumbest doors fault he had this life so he and Harry could never be friends or anything like it in a realistic setting so hopefully this can reflect that but I doubt it.

Flys through his life without any real info after a scene from his pathetic life in the future this is a lame start so far and does not inspire confidence in the next chapters
