And also, if anyone noticed, Lord Voldemort's Avada Kedavra (the killing curse) coming from his wand is green the same as the changling queen's magic. If you have read ALL of the Harry Potter books you would know that Voldemort over looked the power of love when Harry's mother gave her life for him when Voldemort wanted to kill Harry. Voldemort's power was destroyed when he tried to kill Harry. Same with the changling queen. The changling queen over looks the power of princess Cadenze and Shining Armor's love and is blasted away from Canterlot.

@SIM QIAN ERN Moe also doesn't Mdm Hooch look like Spitfire?<br>Like they both teach flying class tho;-;

Does anyone realise that Spitfire looks a lot like Madam Hooch and I just realised that they teach practically almost the same thing: Spitfire coaches the wonderbolts , and they fly, and Madam Hooch teaches Hogwarts students Broomstick Flying

1: Dumbledore:"Say his name, Harry. Fear of the name causes fear of the thing itself." 2:true

Alanna Wall no it’s Who-who-must-be-named

@Alanna Wall I am not afraid of voldemort. I can say his name thousands of times. Voldemort voldemort...

Wait... are you saying... that queen chrisalis... KILLED CELESTIA'S PARENTS?!

Alayna, "fear of a name is fear of a thing itself" - Hermione Granger in  Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

Also the dark lord was born to a father under a love potion so he couldn't love

Very true . And also DON'T SAY HIS NAME . Jesus Christ people, its U KNOW WHO


I think a while back (when I had my old channel) I watched this video and commented about how Voldemort (You Know Who/He Who Must Not Be Named) is almost completely parallel to Queen Chrysalis and how they both don't understand how powerful love is or how it's power works. Also, Queen Chrysalis's magic happens to be green and (coincidentally) Voldemort's signature spell (the Avada Kardva [the killing curse]) just so happens to be green as well (meaning the laser light thing that comes out a wand when you perform a spell like the disarming spell or the killing curse) and Queen Chysalis and Voldemort both have their own supporters and followers (Queen Chysalis's being the changelings and Voldemort's being the Deatheaters). And watch the rest of the movies and read the books (they're good!).

MLP Fans: these two characters from magical shows don't understand love and have green magic at some point, this means they're parallels of eachother!

Well green is the colour of evil in many story's and they underestimate the power of the main character...<br>Standard plot

Standard plot

+Cupa Creeper Finally someone agrees that Chrysalis should be Voldemort! It's just so perfect!


Actually phoenixes have been part of mythology for a long time, but were brought to the public with Harry Potter, as many people didn't know about this mythological creature. MLP did not copy off of HP for the phoenix part, they took the creature from the mythology. They weren't created with Harry Potter.

Correct me if I wrong, please don't hate if I am.

Same thing with the energy beams...
Many shows do that.
Best example would be Dragon ball

@***** Oh, ok. Thanks. I was a bit confused.


Canterlot wedding part 2: when the Changelings broke the spell surrounding the city, the shield  shatters.<br>Deathly Hallows part 2: when the Death Eaters broke the spell surrounding Hogwarts, the shield shatters coincidence?

@Kaeshii_ Maybe that makes them part of the order of the phoenix? Wait no the death eaters didn't switch sides. Unless you count Snape but I don't.

Yes shields shatter in many storys that way...<br>Your point?

Your point?

@Scott Home  I’ve seen the movies once but I’m reading the books for the third time

Holy what the what!?! You watch Harry potter too?😁

E Emanuel as my friend Lia would say it ,Oh yahhh

but now the Changelings are reformed...what does that make them? (i was about to say muggles until I realize that they still have magic)

THE CHANGELINGS ARE DEATH EATERS AND QUEEEN CRYSTALIS IS VOLDEY MOLDY

Coincidence? I bet not! Hasbro is defiantly not all muggles!

both are part 2's... both had a shield... someone got defeated in both deathly hallows and canterlot wedding... hl3 cunfirmed


"as the bird saves harry from the giant snake"
-Brony Notion
"As fawkes, the majestic pheonix, saves harry potter from the wretched basilisk, a monster able to kill with merely its glare."
-TehUnicorns PinkandFluffy


"When the bird-"
FAWKES
"-saves Harry from the snake."
BASILISK. ITS A BASILISK.

@𓆏 Of the many fearsome beasts and monsters that roam our land, there is none more curious or more deadly than the Basilisk, known also as the King of Serpents. This snake, which may reach gigantic size, and live many hundreds of years, is born from a chicken's egg, hatched beneath a toad. Its methods of killing are most wondrous, for aside from its deadly and venomous fangs, the Basilisk has a murderous stare, and all who are fixed with the beam of its eye shall suffer instant death. Spiders flee before the Basilisk, for it is their mortal enemy, and the Basilisk flees only from the crowing of the rooster, which is fatal to it.

THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT I SAID OUT LOUD LOL-

Its achuly spelled (hehe spell-ed)  fox not fawkes.  not tryn too hate on yo post but still

I bet the bird that saved Harry was the Phoenix

I was like he clearly isn't a Harry Potter fan and I was actually annoyed

I said that too but since this video was so old it wouldn't matter!

Uhhhhh dude......I've studied mythology and a basilisk is LITERALLY described as a GIANT SNAKE! If you look up the description of a basilisk from different cultures you'll come up with different results on it's description but all of them closely describe it as a snake.

noseworkout A Basilisk is a type of snake, so he wasn’t wrong on calling it a snake. You can look up Basilisk on google

I'm sorry but please stop nit picking like this.I mean it kinda ruins the fun of things+please do something to explain Pinkie I mean she's even more random than Discord!

I was JUST about to type that but thank goodness I scroll through first?

Basilisk is is also a small snake specie

I know its annoying, but to be fair he hasn't even read the books!

This is what I call nitpicking. Almost everyone, if not everyone, probably understood. Sorry, nitpicking to this degree just bothers me a little. I don’t mean to be insulting........

But all phoenixes do that. The species is actually from Greek Mythology.


fans every where rage that it is a basilisk and a phoenix

Everyone makes mistakes, but I can agree that I got a bit angry

@Dokata actually the basalisk is a legless lizzard.

Hold on a sec why does Spitfire, the wonderbolts coach, look almost the same as Madam Hooch, like they both coach flying lessons right?

+MissingHope AnimalJam What are you the spelling police? Big deal its a spelling mistake on a YouTube comment, not a spelling test XD.


If someone hasn't, I'll get writing on that fanfic ^^ It actually seems like a pretty cool concept. After all, we never saw how the Celestia's School of Gifted Unicorns actually went down because Twilight never truly became a student. When she was enrolling and taking her enterance exam, Princess Celestia taught her personally. What if the factions in HP existed in the unicorn school too? Like different categories for unicorns with different talents (ie; like Rarity's finding gems, and Trixie's is to make illusions <del>basically magic shows</del>) It's not too difficult to imagine, because, like stated in Testing Testing 123, every pony learns differently, so wouldn't they be separated based on what the learn and what their talents are?

A young unicorn filly named Sugar Quill gets accepted into Celestia’s school, and meets a mysterious other student called Bubbles, who never takes off her cloak......


At the end of the fourth book l, Dumbledore says, " 'His gift for spreading discord and enmity is very great. We can fight it only by showing an equally strong bond of friendship and trust.-' "

Dose this not sound like mlp because to me it sounds exactly like Discord.
It even says his name. Spreading enmity is definitely Discord's specialty. Also, like in mlp, it says that it can only be fought by friendship and trust... cough cough the cough elements cpugh cough. anyway I believe when making season 2 episodes 1 and 2, the designers probably used this passage for inspiration.

I didn't even realize them!! I haven't seen all the movies... but I read the whole series....btw, the bird is indeed a Phoenix and the giant snake is called a basilisk. Just letting you know. :)


Okay, time to blow this to bits...

Daring Do/A.K. Yearling: YOU come up with a good pony pun for George Lucas or Stephen Spielberg (plus, neither of them are authors)

Fawkes/the Owl (not gonna try to spell his name): that's how birds fight ground-based opponents

Fawkes/Philomena: they're both phoenixes; that's almost like saying Spike correlates to Norbert because they're both young dragons.

Wand duel/Celestia vs Chrysalis:  that effect is something of a trope; AnimatedJames used it in Tails vs Twilight, and it was similar to part of the battle between Twilight & Tirek (the difference in both cases being that neither side got the upper hand/hoof and the energy backlash simply exploded).

Thank you, I agree, I'm so glad I found someone who said exactly what I was thinking

well it's hardly ever seen any where else. he probably just wanted a fan fic of a HP/MLP cross over


I haven’t read the books but I have seen the movies. And I LOVE Harry Potter. The way they introduce magic is the most epic and most creative ever. Thumbs up to JK for bringing this awesome franchise into the world.


there is a fanfiction called "The Seventh Element" and it has thestrals, which are ponies with dragon wings from the harry potter series. It's actually really good, and i'm re-reading it now


It is true that MLP sometimes takes elements from HP, Celestia's pet pheonix scene, ect. and even references it sometimes for fun, like in Discord's "Glass of Water" song, however I don't thik it goes much further than that.

The point they were trying to make with "Read It Or Weep" was, obviously, not to knock a book (or reading books in general, in Rainbow Dash's case) without trying it first. This was just more clearly illustrated by subtly referencing to the Harry Potter books, since they are part of a mainstream series that a lot of people are familiar with. I know it's hard to remember HP before the movies, when the books were just coming out, but I recall it. I was a kid myself back then, and it seemed like people were either reading HP and liking it, or they were like "no way, I'm not reading that, only dorks read that" without even trying to read them. I was part of the latter; I think mainly cause the cover art of the books seemed so cartoonish, I thought the books must be stupid. But then someone finally convinced me to give it a try, and (like Rainbow Dash and the Daring Doo books) I suddenly realized the HP books were actually pretty good and were something that I liked. Obviously many people had similar experiences with it too, and eventually it became quite popular.

So yeah, anyways, this was the reason for the similarities (in Read it or Weep, in any case, especially the A.K.Yearling vs J.K.Rowling name similarity). Just helped them get the point of the episode across better by likening the pony's mainstream novel to something that we were more familiar with.


Most of these parallels are due to both MLP and Harry Potter being heavily rooted in Greek Mythology and not necessarily correlate to each other.  These tropes are too long established.  Yes we see the correlation, but in today's literature and theater, the connections are much deeper than they seem.

@Tender Heart You are smart dude. I don't really get it. :/


found some similarities between harry potter and mlp remember in order of phoenix Harry's friends are captured by the death eaters in exchange for the prophecy, in twilights kingdom her friends are captured in bubbles by tirek in exchange for her magic. don't miss this James and lily were betrayed by their friend wormtail, and starlights villagers were betrayed by their friend starlight or you could say the main six were betrayed by their friend discord when he pretended to be grogar. also, everyone thought Sirius black was responsible for James and lilys death but they were wrong, the school thought the student six were responsible for the magic disappearing but it was cozy glow. plus Sirius black was set free by the nicest person in the harry potter we know Harry and Hermione, and the student six were set free by the nicest known thing the tree of harmony ( in school raze ). also, Hermione was willing to be killed if Sirius wanted to kill Harry, also discord willingly took the attack on Fluttershy on himself.  harry thought snape was bad but he turned out to be good in the end, the main five thought discord was still not reformed but in the end he turned out to be reformed. harry's parents sacrificed themselves to protect him, Celestia sacrificed her sister to protect her kingdom or you know the sacrifice discord made for Fluttershy. also the evil dragon that chased harry seemed a lot like the dragon that chased spike. also Draco had always been a bully to harry, the bully gang that bully rainbow dash has always been a bully to her. Draco was made a good guy in the end ( at least in the books ) and the bully gang that bully rainbow dash was made good too at the end of an episode. ( spoiler alert this is from the harry potter and the cursed child )
Harry's son messed up when he used time travel, starlight messed up when she used time travel. please tell if I missed anything
 ( well probably not ) but still


For those saying that the "Phoenix" idea is a little forced, let me explain:
Dumbledore and Celestia both explain it in similar matters. Harry doesn't know what to do, and neither does Fluttershy. But here's the thing: Celestia is basically the God of Equestria. Celestia's school of gifted unicorns. Then, there is Dumbledore, the Headmaster of Hogwarts. Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. See where I am getting at?

@Potter Pony He is also the most powerful wizard in the world, don't forget about that. He has the friggin Elder Wand. Like Snape put it himself: "Dumbledore IS a great wizard, only a fool would doubt that!"<br>Doesn't that really equal him to Celestia on a "magical" level? Celestia also kind of is a headmaster at the Celestia's Academy of Magic whilst being the most powerful Alicorn in Equestria.

@Potter Pony Yes. You make really good points.


The first book titled the quest for the sapphire stone is also a good reference to philosopher's Stone. And moving away from MLP for a moment, I find more Harry Potter references and winx club. I mean come on, girl looses parents at a young age, girl discovers she has magic powers and goes to a magic school, girl gets tricked by imposter to go to her enemies and do their bidding without a choice in the matter, girl defeats The guy who was responsible for the loss of her parents... it's basically a fairy version of Harry Potter with the main character being a teenage girl. Any winx club fan over here? Any thoughts?


The only slight reference to Harry Potter in the show that I notice is in the season four episode, “Three’s a crowd”. During the song, “A little Glass Of Water”, discord sings the line, “A magic spell to cure disease” and they are all shown in different house robes. Gryffindor, Ravenclaw and Slytherin respectively. Twilight is also wearing Harry Potter glasses. In the background, there is a castle similar to the Hogwarts Castle. Or I’m just a nerd. Yeah, that’s definitely it.


The potion in princess twilight sparkle reminded me of the pensieve. U can go into a memory as an observer, but the ppl in the memory can't see or hear you. Also, in magical mystery cure, when twilight goes to that place where celestia shows up, and twi becomes an alicorn, it reminded me so much of when Harry kinda-sorta-not really dies, and dumbledore comes.


I hope you’ve read the books by now!<br>If you had read the books then you’d probably have got the biggest similarity: Voldemort couldn’t kill Harry because he didn’t understand love; mlp villains always get blasted by rainbows because they don’t understand the magic of friendship.

I hope you’ve read the books by now!

Your transformation frightened me, but I love how your OC is a changeling. They're under appreciated.


Many of the other beasts we've seen (not just Phillameana) in MLP are also in HP. I'm only on the first book but planing on reading the others this Summer.


If you watched Three's a Crowed you would have seen the VERY clear Harry Potter reference ^^

@CastDuckling950 she's wearing a ravenclaw uniform so I'm guessing it's cho chang or luna lovrgood...

FOUND IT!!! It's during the "a magic spell to cure disease" part during "a glass of water" song Hogwarts appears (even the forest!!!) and they're wearing the uniforms!!!! Discord is salazar slytherin cuz he's wearing green, idk, cadence is luna or cho, and twilight is harry, even the glasses!!!

Oh, yeah! Twilight’s in Gryffindor, Cadance is in Ravenclaw and Discord is in Slytherin. But I think Twilight in Ravenclaw and Cadance in Gryffindor is much better.

During  Discord's Glass of Water song, a second part of the song, after the waltz sequence is "I'd like that glass of water please, a magic spell to cure disease." During the "magic spell" part, Discord dresses (instantly) as Dumbledore, with Twilight and Cadance as Harry and Hermione, respectively.

+Maja Trusewicz candence is wereing a blue scarf she's probebly luna (harry potter character not mlp princess

+Maja Trusewicz l bet cadence is hermiony

In that episode im still not sure who cadence was dressed up as, even though twighlight was harry potter and discord was dumbledore.. please can anyone comment if they know? : /

+HidanKitten32 its the part when discord was singing his song and then theres this one part when twilight looks like harry with glasses and discord is dumbledore

@Alwins Restaurant Owlicious saves spike and in Harry Potter gets saved by the Phoenix

@Epic Pusheen Person It's when discord was being discord towards the end.

@HidanKitten32 ohh...ima go watch the episode again

@Epic Pusheen Person It's during Discord's song, they are all dressed as wizards

i do know harry potter, but im still confused :/ just tell me what it is i dont use my brain on weekends

@Epic Pusheen Person  There is a Harry Potter reference in this episode. If you know what Harry Potter is you'll know it when you see it

XD It's something you have to see than hear about. Believe me when you see it you'll know. Just google my little pony harry potter reference and you'll get a picture

Yes :3 that episode aired after I posted this video I wish I waited!


I had never noticed those crazy similarities.
There are others aswell.
In the fourth story, goblet of fire, Harry Potter has to go through a maze and find a way to get the trophy. In the mlp episodes when we first see discord, he separates the mane 6 in a maze and challenges them to get out. The mane 6, taking away twilight, end up caught in a spell. The same happens to the other competitors in the potter movie in the maze.
I only know that one though so hopefully you might notice more. 😄


Actually, a beam versus beam strength contest is hardly limited to Harry Potter. In fact, I'm sure it's hardly the first time that play has been used in manga/books, movies. comics or anime/cartoons. It's practically a trope unto itself. Other than that, there does seem to be a number of parallels. It seems odd though that while Harry loved to go to school, Twilight is terrified of the prospect of being sent back there. There's also no reason to believe her parents did love her as much as any other pony. So the analogy falls flat there.


You know I thought the very same thing when I started watching MLP: FIM. That there was a lot of references from the Harry Potter series. Nice video.
I love Harry Potter very much. And I'm liking MLP too. So much that I'm thinking of making a crossover series myself. I've already given it a title.
I would call the series "The Hogwart Harmons". The first story would be called "The Hogwart Harmons & The Elements of Harmony". And the stories would be set on a group of 6 students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry under the indefinite control of the ponies of Equestria, with the main character being an autistic, Muggle-born wizard.
At the moment, it's in my head instead of written down. But what do you think of my idea so far, The Brony Notion? If I ended up ever writing it, do you think you might read it?


They actually have a Harry Potter reference in “Three’s a crowd” when Discord says “A magic spell to cure disease.” They show Harry Potter as Twilight. It took me a while to realize that.


The "gauntlet of fire" in the dragon lands episode is a reference to Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, in which the participants have to pass challenges to get to the trophy at the end


Did anyone know that vol de mort means fleeing from death in french coincodince...<br>There are also a whole bunch of awesome parallels to all sorts of things. Check muggle net.

I don't think a lot of magic stories are inspired from Harry Potter. I think Harry Potter is inspired by the same mythological creatures and magical worlds that the other stories get they inspiration from.

And... I was thinking... What if Philamena was a... Titan!?? When she transforms herself, it's looks a lot like the transformations in SNK! And there is a titan that becomes like a bird at the end of SNK... 🤔


You just summoned the entire wizarding world here. THANKS, HERMIONE


I'd think that Having all wizards be unicorns would be segregational, and not at all what dumbledore or Tia would've wanted. Maybe, it could be a parallel equestria where a unicorns making would be more subdued, like still using weaker levitation and possible short distance teleportation. Pegasi could hold Wanda with their wings and earth ponies use their mouths.


Let's start with my thoughts on each scene.
1. That is definitely the case
2. While there are two birds that save the hero of the story after they fall, they are both different birds with a different bad guy who used different attacks.
3. They are both pheonixes. In a magical universe. So what if they both do the same thing? They're literally the same animal.
4. Every magical show with any magic at all does this. HP and MLP aren't special.


Yes there's a parallel here but you must know it's simply the case of "A hero with a thousand faces" as well. In some cases same situation same outcome but different characters.


Ending of order of the Phoenix is probably why the concept of FiM came out and the redemption of Nightmare Rarity is very similar to Harry's fight against Voldemort inside his mind in that film


"Seen first 3 movies"<br>Me: then how did you get to the goblet of fire then?

"Seen first 3 movies"
Me: then how did you get to the goblet of fire then?


I freaking love Harry potter!!!!! I've watched every movie and I'm planning to get the new book for my birthday.That's right the cursed child.😆


Tirek looks so similar to the creature who saved Harry Potter in the 1st movie ‘Harry Potter and the philosophers stone’. Both are centaurs.


And to put another reference to Harry Potter books Princess Celestia is extremely similar to Professor Dumbledore. Both are the most powerful characters in their universes and they a lot of times hid valuable information about the villains the main characters are up against and just let them learn from it. They're basically just like trolls they know more than they're giving to the main characters. And I have an idea of a Death Battle how about Princess Celestia vs Professor Dumbledore? I think that would be a battle of the century literary.


I think that twilight was almost "modeled" after Harry, seeing as he is the chosen one and Twi seems to be an equivalent. also, Celestia is similar to Dumbeldor. (sorry, don't know how to spell it) so it would make sense that she has a phenix. Also, I like to think it also it's a reference to how people in this show are "reborn" now, I know I'm ahead of this based on the date it was posted.... I think it hints at Luna being "reborn" and now Starlight and Sunset.

I kind think that Starswil is Dumbledore and either Celestia or Twilight is Professor Mcgonnical and the other is Hermione. Then Rainbow would be Harry. Pinkie might be the Weasley Twins. Discord would be Hagrid. Applejack would be Serious Black. Starlight is Delores Umbridge. Fluttershy would be Ginny Weasley.


Or the plot of MLP and HP are similar. Harry Potter is a wizard who uses magic, and Twilight Sparkle is a unicorn who uses magic. (All ponies have magic within them, but unicorns are known for using it.) Both Harry and Twilight discover that they are great magic users. And with the help of their friends, they defeat several enemies.


The Celestia vs Chrysalis isn't really a good parallel to make since it'd be more equivalent to Dumbledore vs Voldemort than Harry vs Voldemort. Celestia was the elder(though still visibly young) teacher while Twilight is the student.


Hmm, while I thought you brought up some interesting paralell scenes, which I wouldn't be at all surprised if there was something intentional here by the mlp staff, I wouldn't say there's that much of a striking paralell between the series. It's more like visually referencing the harry potter movies and, of course, the whole phoenix episode has a lot of probably very intentional paralells, not to mention the fact that princess celestia is, of course, in many ways quite a similar character as dumbledore. But, well, this all isn't so strange as mlp fim has quite some references to other shows in it, and, well, what is more well known than Harry Potter? Not so strange to refernce it, ey. Nonetheless, interesting video. And, lastly, come on, why the hell didn't you read the Harry Potter series. GO and read it NOW! ;)


You know, it's actually really rude of you to have referred to Pumpkin Cake as a mudblood. As shown in both the movies and the books, it is a vulgar term that is used as an insult.

@Biswadeep Duttaa I made that comment 4 years ago bruv who even cares anymore lmao

But in the end, Hermione calls herself a mudblood. "Mudblood and proud of it."

Yes, I do know this is much later, but I just wanted to state this.

its true though filthy is what made it so insulting also the way draco said it

I think that Flurry Heart whoud be Harry Potter tho xD

+HappyPonyJunior how do you know just because you never see one.huug it's people like you who have no respect for littered and no imagination ahh

And wizards aren't even real anyway so does it really matter?


You are so right! I never thought about those being related! I've read the Harry Potter series twice,you see.


I hope you have red the Harry Potter books by now, they are amazing and you are missing out if you have not.


Harry Trotter and the Alicorn Amulet. (It's really hard to think of a singular, canon, magical artifact that can also help the bad guys.)

Harry Trotter and the Canterlot Caverns. (It was either this or Harry Trotter and the Everfree Forest, but the Everfree seems more like the Forbidden Forest than the Chamber of Secrets. And this is as close as I can get for that, as I will not accept the cave of those gem hounds or whatever they are to be close to the Chamber of Secrets.)

Harry Totter and the Prisoner in Stone. (So, how about that Victory statue, eh?)

Harry Trotter and the Flames of Friendship. (Fire. Friendship. I can't really get close to this one without making something up, so this is as close as I can get it, no?)

Harry Trotter and the Order of Harmony. (This is a given.)

Harry Trotter and the Lunar Princess. (This is also a given and an excuse for fanfic writers to make a couple out of Luna and Harry.)

Harry Trotter and the Elements of Harmony. (This is also a given.)

Yep, seems legit to me.

remember in one episode of spike when he goes to the dragon lands and meets ember ?   they had to bring the 'gauntlet of fire ' coincidence , I think not! !

I need to say this " your a unicorn, Harry"

Yeah and number two could be called , umm ... Gimme a sec I’m having a brain fart, ooh I know,Harry trotter and the, ... whatever the place Tirek was sent to is called .

@DuskHeart13 it should take place at the school twighlight went to

@CookiezForEveryone Thinking of it now... It fits.


3:52 I love the noise Philomena makes there! 🤣


Think about it;
There is a powerful and well known wizard/princess living in a castle with a pet pheonix. He/she has a student at their school possessing extreme magical abilities, who has a friend living in a house by the forest among adorable and occasionally seemingly dangerous creatures.


it's cool how you transformed into a Harry Potter pony for most of the review. Cool use of your changeling powers if you ask me


When you watch in episode "Threes`s a crowd" , in the song "Glass of water" , there is a slight moment , where Twilight , Cadance and Discord are wearing black robes with diffrient colourd ties : red , blue and green . Rewatch the song and find the place . Stay awsome !


Philomena and Fawkes are just both pheonixes, but that's where the similarities end. The pheonix is from greek mythology, not just something J.K Rowling made up. So its not really a reference to Harry Potter.

+Cynthia Blankenship i want a million dozen pheonixes sad they are not real


The books are so much better when read by Jim Dale. Audiobooks for the win!


Well a lot of the magical creatures mentioned in my little pony are also in Harry Potter.

If I'm not mistaken there were photos (fake or not I don't know and I have no way of proving it) of a pony in ponyville wearing a quite familiar looking red and gold scarf


The two series are also related because they both have the concept of magic


I do agree with you but,mlp gets a lot of things from other moves and shows so maybe you should make another one of these . With considering other series 😄


I didn't notice when I first saw the episode but when Fluttershy gallops to catch the phoenix, the sound effect used is for a galloping horse with a saddle. You can hear the metal parts clinking as she runs. Is it on purpose? or do they not have stock sound for an unsaddled horse?


Harry says in one of the films to u know who. "You have never had love or frienship" i shouted Frienship is magic

U mean in order of the Phoenix, right? I know the hp films by heart, cept perhaps half blood prince


Am I the only one who sees how similiar Celestia and Dumbledore are? I mean, they both own a phoenix, both have got a magical talented student, etc.


"The bird's" name is Fawkes! And watch Three's a Crowd, apparently Twilight is a Gryffindor though I would've thought she was a Ravenclaw. Who's with me?


Sits awake at 4:54 on Monday watching this the movies and reading the books..... SEEMS LEGIT


You didn't mention the most obvious one. Starswirl the Bearded created the amniomorphic spell, amnio meaning bowl and morphic meaning to shape. Hence it was a spell for making pottery, therefore Starswirl is a Hairy Potter!


“When the bird saves harry from the snake” what i hear “when the Phoenix/fawkes saves harry from the basalisc”


Because humans dont have horns, we need wands to use magic. I wonder if a earth-pony or a pegasus had some kind of wand would they be able to use magic like a unicorn, maybe less powerful and difficult to use but it would be interesting if that could work.


I actually plan to incorporate something similar to mudbloods in my work-in-progress fanfiction 'Return to Equestria' (wich is currently only in german, but once it‘s finished, I‘ll upload it in english too)


i think it was just a coincidence, both are vary well written and shot shows, great minds think alike as they say. I doubt they took inspiration from HP especially the Phoenix thing, Thats just common lore for them. Loads of movies and shows use phoenix's in exactly the same way.


Tirek looks so similar to the creature who saved Harry Potter in the 1st movie ‘Harry Potter and the philosophers stone’.


Wow, I never realized that they are so similar. Cool!!!


Personally I think there are a lot of parallels between mlp and the dragon ball series. Primarily the battle against Tirek and battle of the gods. When you watch Twilght fight Tirek it looks like something out of a dragon ball fight, minus the filler. In battle of the gods Goku has to take in the power of the other Sayins to be able to fight the villain, now just think Sayin=Princess and Twilight=Goku.


Plus, u forgot that the evil dragon looks REMARKABLY like the Hungarian Horntail in The Goblet of Fire movie.


Goblet of fire is the fourth installment in the Harry Potter series. If you know the scene where Harry battles Voldemort, you have seen the first four movies.


1:50 ok i noticed that a lot of people saying that "all phoenix's rise from the ashes" witch yes is true but i dont think that Sawtooth was talking about that,if you think about it both Fluttershy and Harry didnt know what can happen to a pheonix(when they turn and rise from the ashes),i think they meant that both scenes are similar mainly because of the fact that 1.a phoenix turn into ashes 2. The characters from deffrend fandoms(harry potter and mlp) had the same reaction to the phoenix turn into ashes and 3.the phoenix rise from the ashes (or at least that is what i think sawtooth meant by this two clips)


Well, exept for the Daring Doo part, I wouldn't call any of this parallels.<br>Both, Harry Potter and MLP, are using typical clishees. Those things were used before Harry Potter and MLP and they will be used again!

i believe you have it right and you should-if your not going to read HP-at least finish the rest of the movies they are amazing i should know i read all the books about 6 times


I plan on creating this fanfic. Thanks for the idea. I will send you a link to it as soon as I finish.


You don't get the story quiet good from the movies, the first, second and maybe third are ok, but the forth and specially 5, 6, 7.1 and 7.2 have some mayor mistakes and lack explanations given in the book.


This is like my 2 favorite things put together!!!


All of them. Parallels do not stop. To be fair though they do tend to stick to ideas people actually like. Discord based on Q from star trek for example.


That pheonix parallel is just part of the myth. Pheonixs burst into flame when it is time for them to die and are reborn from the ashes.


Meh. For a second there I thought maybe Hasbro managed to get a bunch of Harry Potter under my radar, but these particular parallels aren't very convincing. Like you said, Daring Do is an Indiana Jones reference, A.K. Yearling is a J.K Rowling reference, but none of these other scenes seemed like they were referencing Harry Potter to me.

"Saved by a pet" is a common trope, and I didn't see a lot of similarities between those two scenes aside from that. Sure the dragon looked a bit like a snake, but the resemblance wasn't exactly striking. http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TimmyInAWell

As for the Phoenix, burning up and being reborn from the ashes is kind of what Phoenixes do. It's what they're known for, and that legend has existed for a long, long time. I mean, just look at the Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix_%28mythology%29 Any show which includes Phoenixes will likely include a scene where they burn up and are reborn, and if the characters aren't aware of this the scene you showed will be the inevitable result.

And as for the power beam thing, that's in basically every fighting anime ever. Nothing about that is unique to Harry Potter.

Maybe there are more parallels, but the ones you showed in this video aren't very convincing.

I've always wondered why neither Twi or Fluttershy knew what a phoenix is.


I was actually thinking of it storing the CMC is a protagonist and having it not being purely unicorn because that's just kinda silly to me. Instead, witches use a diffrent kind of magic, the kind from the heart and mind, not horn. Oh yes, unicorns San use their horns, but limatedly (short distance teleportation, levitation, stuff like that) and is very hard to use witch magic with a horn, which is why everyone wound need a wand


In s04e11 "threes a crowd" discord sings a song called Glass Of Water. In it he says "a magic spell to cure disease" and on the screen it shows twilight dressed as Harry, Cadence dressed in a raven law cape, and discord in a slytheren cape with a wig that looks like malfoys. There's also a castle looking thing in the background


OK, i have to agree, they do have some similarities. But my opinion about spike being saved by owlowiscious is that there are MANY more shows and movies that have this cliche' so it can't JUST be a Harry Potter reference or inspiration, although it could.


Wait, so if earth ponies are muggles and unicorns are wizards, what are alicorns and pegasi? Maybe alicorns could be very powerful wizards?


Read the books NOW! They are awesome and you miss ALOT from watching the movie first!

Why would they compare this to Harry Potter. The idea of this ruins Harry Potter for me. I got a book, the 3rd to be specific. Fuck reading it now that I know that Harry Potter has parallels to...My Little Pony (seriously, it sounds like a brand of colonoscopy bandages marketed towards children.)


I don't know if this counts as a parallel; it's probably more of a shared trope. But I was sure you would talk about the relationship between Celestia and Twilight, and compare it to the relationship between Dumbledore and Harry. It may be only a similarity based on what you'd expect from a 'chosen one' and their mentor, but something about how friendly they are, how much the student looks up to and wishes to please the teacher, and even how highly the teacher is regarded in their society makes me link those two in my mind very strongly. I would never put Obiwan and Luke in the same category; while they are technically the same trope, the chemistry between them is too different.<br>I also have some thoughts about how Severus Snape and Princess Luna share some qualities (though not nearly as many, to be clear. That parallel is much shakier.)

+The Llama Pony whaaa he was such a good actor I'm sad that snap died basically twice sence alen was seen as snap for such a long time

@***** The idea that he's dead is still so wrong. I keep watching Dogma over and over, and I just can't believe that the Metatron isn't here anymore.


thank you. fear of the name increases fear of the thing itself and also. OMG new book YES!!!!!!!!!!. and the books are better than the movies.

Feline Intellect I was so mad when he said he only watched the movies and knew nothing of the BOOKS!  Ahhhh!

@The Shield Bro's Yea the pony duh,but the pony 'has' a yt channel i think fluffymixer or something

after the fan made pony idk it was a channel

Denmai Makei I would of named it fluffle puff

I have a Pygmy Puff! I named him after Arnold, Ginny's Pygmy Puff! Everyone thinks he's pink, but in the books he's purple.

@Olivia Sorrentino lol, I draw Pygmy Puffs, and have also created a Harry Potter oc, who of couse has a Pygmy Puff!

XD I'm a hufflepuff, no doubt about it, I even drew a cartoonish picture of me as a person at hogwarts and facts like what my partonous animal is and what my wand core is and what it's made out of, I'm that obsessed o.O

XD I read the books and saw the movies, I think I'm too obsessed with Harry Potter, I JUST WANT MORE, I WANT IT TO BE AN INFINITE SERIES ! PLZZZ J.K. ROWLING! XD

@Nika Korez Oh, that's not the longest I could write.One time I wrote three times that amount.

@Yesi Anya your conversation should be turned into a movie XD

@***** How can't I?<br>it is the best show ever

@***** How can't I?

The fact that you care is amusing. No grammar, you make me sick, yes I may care, but at least I admit it. I am not the one who joins other peoples'  conversation .

@***** YOU ARE SO STUPID! Voldemort uses the spell to kill, he doesn't "like it or whatever".
I understand if that was a joke, but this was clearly NOT funny, how stupid do you have to be? Unless you haven't
started the books at the first one, THAT WAS PATHEDIC! EVEN IF YOU HAVEN'T STARTED  FROM BOOK ONE IT'S
PATHEDIC, if you don't start there you are stupid.

Don't be mad at her I like books too but twilight if you<br>Keep on reading books your eyes are gonna pop out

Don't be mad at her I like books too but twilight if you

@Maria S I read all them in 4th grade too in my class that was th year of reading them

I remember before I was as into them my mom and brother (who is 18) waiting for the 7th book to come out.

Formor (Alex) | Conlangs and Worldbuilding

@crestofreliability i remember waiting for books to come out so your not alone

Naw, you're not old....quite yet....xD<br>Older than me, certainly, but not old.

Naw, you're not old....quite yet....xD
Older than me, certainly, but not old.

19 years is not old! I'm not old till I'm like 21 and drinking... although I did read the books about the age when you first learned about multiplication (3rd grade).

@crestofreliability Uh huh. you're the only one. I guess you're older than us lot ;)

<b>loads gun</b> Am I the only person that actually grew up waiting for books in my series to come out? I remember Goblet of Fire coming out and my late grandfather bought it, for my mother and I had to wait until my mother read it, my older brother read it then I could finally read it. Needless to say if the book was down anyone could pick it up.

XD Ok, maybe that was an over reaction, but they ARE incredible.

ya there really good  i read all the books in last school year

Or watch the movies... But yeah, read the  books first.


You must now do Parallels between HP and PJO/HoO (Depending on which series your more familer with)


As a huge Potterhead, I enjoy this video


There's the maze from the goblet of fire and the one from the season 2 2 parter.

In each one the maze changed the people or ponies within. Causing those within turn against each other.

The maze in Goblet of fire just made them go crazy cuz harry mind went beserk there.... sort of...


If you've never read the Harry Potter series, you really should! It's never to late!


How about this: the cutie mark crusaders-in "Luna and Celestina's school for gifted magicians"- not just unicorns, diamond tiara and silver spoon are  like Malfoy and their cronies! Can you imagine the film flam brothers as Fred and George?


Well, in the Discords Song ‚A Glass of Water‘ you can also see Discord, Twilight and Cadence dressed as Hogwarts Students. Discord was Draco (I guess), Twilight was Harry Potter (just Look at her glasses) and Cadence came from Ravenclaw.


I think the resemblence is amzing! The hair colour, the parents etc


I think the writers are just fans of Rowling's work. I don't think they would take it that far to introduce a crossover with ponies to fill roles. I think the most they would do is throw in references maybe even a BG pony, just for fun.


I cried in the last Harry Potter reference. The one with the wand crossing. IT WAS SOO SAD!!!


MY TWO FAV FANDOMS PUT TOGETHER!!!! YAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!


"The bird saves Harry from the giant snake"
Eye twitches
"Please note I haven't read the books and I've only seen the first three movies"
Runs away...

Wait.
If you've only seen the first three movies, how did you know of the graveyard scene in Goblet of Fire?!?

Whelp :puts wand to forehead: AVADA KEDAVRA XP


the wand duel could also be like twilight's duel against Tirek, even thought this video was made before then


and now rarity found a book that took over her and corrupted her, while in harry potter and the chamber of secrets ginny rinds a book that takes over her, and almost kills her. see any similarities?


in the return of harmony, the maze is almost exactly like the 3rd task in the 4th book!! I mean, moving walls? :)


OH! AND ALSO, in the MLP comics there are also similarities, in Celestia's Micro theres a scene of ponies blasting fruit, a harry potter, ron and hermione pony are clearly seen. Another picture from that micro is a pony who looks like Professor Tralawny, Professor Snape AND Professor McGonagal sorry can't spell.


If you watched the sacrifice of Twilights magic to Terec to savd her friends, thats Harry allowing Voldermort to "kill" him to protect his allies


"mudblood" is the slur form for "muggleborn". you dont use it to someone with 2 muggle parents but born with magical abilities.


In a hearths warming tail the teacher looks a lot like Snape and he teaches magic


I'm Harry Potter freak I never noticed this oh my god thank you soooooo much for bringing this up you're one of my favorite YouTubers


I'm surprised no one brought up the scene where Harry meets Dumbledore in Limbo and when Twilight meets Celestia in that celestial plane place in the comments


This parallel is pretty hidden, but rememeber the episode Trade Ya? Rainbow Dash wanted a copy signed edition of "Daring Do and the Sapphire Stone." and  the first book of Harry Potter is called ,"Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone." See the resemblance?


Season 9 finale has a similar ending as the ending of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2


I'm not sure if it was out yet, but in the song "a little glass of water" (from "Three's a crowd") has a seen where Twilight, Cadence, and Discord are dressed as harry potter characters. I thought is was good to note.


FINALLY. SOMEBODY SEES THE REFRENCE OF THE HARRY/VOLDIMORT.


Fawkes the Phoenix is probably my favorite song in Harry Potter


Well, there is a crossover in the comic books, in the micro series, Celestia's comic when the food came to life, there was Ron, Harry, and hermionie ponies under a table. And there are other crossovers in the comic books as well.


I remember that part. Ugh its been to long since i watched Harry Potter.


Okay, I'm gonna excuse this because you've only seen the first three, but for future reference, Mudblood is a derogatory term, the less offensive term being Muggleborn.


I love HP and MLP and I don't think you missed that much


Is it bad that when harry said 'have it your way' I expected the burger king logo to pop up XD

Don't forget chocolate frogs with every kids meal :D

New at Burger King, Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Burgers! Eat at your own risk!


mmmm, In most folklore/ novels/movies/stories, phoenixes either a) renew by burning or b) rebirth new phoenixes by burning. So its not just HP and MLP.


I luv Harry potter the movies and books are awesome!


Something i found in common is that voldemort causes chaos in the harry potter world when he returns and when discord returns he does the same thing all throughout ponyville and that chaos spreads to some of canterlot!!!!


In  EG Rainbow Rocks, Twilight and Spike take the portal to Canterlot High on a run.
In  Harry Potter and Philosopher's Stone, Harry and Ron take the barrier to Platform 9 3/4 on a run.

 In  EG Rainbow Rocks, the combined magic of friendship(with Sunset) takes the form of a Golden Snitch.


It was all over.  Lord Voldemort, the wizard who had tormented Harry Potter for years, had finally been defeated.  All that was left to do was to clean up Hogwarts and properly bury the dead.  Harry Potter would be known as the most heroic wizard of his generation, an unprecedented achievement for someone so young.

            Harry looked around at the wreckage around him.  The windows of the Great Hall had been shattered, and broken glass lay all over the floor.  Rubble from the destroyed walls was interspersed amongst the dead bodies and their grieving families.  Harry turned to his friend Ron’s dead brother, Fred, and saw Mrs. Weasley standing vigil over the corpse, tears streaming down her face.  Mr. Weasley and the other children were there as well, looking shocked, as if they were not sure what was happening.

            Hermione stood by Harry’s side and noticed Harry staring at the Weasley family.

            “Go over there,” she said.

            “What?” Harry asked, having been broken out of a trance.

            “Harry, I shouldn’t have to tell you this, but you’re practically family.  Go be with them.”

            “Hermione, I can’t do that,” Harry said.

            “Why not?” Hermione asked.

            “It would seem…well, wrong.”  Hermione rubbed Harry on the shoulder.

            “Hey,” Harry said, “do you know where Ron is?”

            “I’m not sure,” Hermione said.  “He disappeared after you gave up the Elder Wand.”

            “We should look for him,” Harry said.  “He needs to be with his family.”

            “Where could he have gone?” Hermione asked.  Harry racked his brain, trying to think.  Where would he be right now, if he were Ron Weasley?  Knowing his friend’s temperament, he was probably angry right now, but that didn’t exactly help narrow it down.  Harry thought back to the last time they had seen him.

            “Didn’t he mention something about the Deathly Hallows?” Harry asked.

            “I think so,” Hermione said.  “He wasn’t sure if it was right to let them go the way you did.”  Harry turned his attention to the Hallows.  He had returned the Elder Wand to Professor Dumbledore’s tomb so that it wouldn’t be used again.  Harry didn’t know if Ron wanted anything to do with the Elder Wand; he had been a bit confused about why Harry would give it up.  Harry, of course, still had the Invisibility Cloak.  That only left the Resurrection Stone.

            “I know where he is,” Harry said.

            “Really?” Hermione asked.  “How can you be so sure?”

            “I think he’s after the Stone.  He wants to see his brother again, I’m sure of it.  It’s what I’d be looking for if I had just lost someone in my family.”

            “Well, let’s go, then,” Hermione said.

            “Ron!” Harry and Hermione cried, hoping to find their friend.  They were wandering in the Forbidden Forest, trying to get the attention of their friend.  Hermione groaned when there was no reply for what seemed like the thousandth time.

            “How are we ever going to find him?” Hermione asked.  “The forest is huge.”  Harry ignored her and continued to call for his friend.  They eventually heard what sounded like a human voice in the distance and decided to follow it.  As they approached, they began to hear what the voice was saying.

            “…where’s your damn friend?” the voice was saying.

            “Like I’m really going to tell you,” another voice replied.

            “It’s Ron!” Hermione whispered.  Harry and Hermione followed the voices urgently.

            “If you can’t tell me where Potter is, I’ll make you suffer until you start to cooperate!  Crucio!”  Ron’s screams of pain made Harry and Hermione move ever more quickly.  They assumed Ron had run into a Death Eater, and in his panic, Harry still wondered what he was doing anywhere near Hogwarts.

            “Who’s there?” the Death Eater cried, hearing the noise of Harry and Hermione approaching.  Harry and Hermione looked through some trees and saw the Death Eater waving his wand around frantically.  Harry took aim through the leaves.

            “Stupefy!” he cried.  The Stunning Spell hit the Death Eater square in the chest, knocking him to the forest floor and throwing his mask off of his face.  Harry and Hermione rushed into the clearing where he and Ron were and saw Ron slowly getting up from the forest floor.

            “Are you all right?” Hermione asked, helping Ron up and giving him a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

            “I’m fine, Hermione,” Ron said.  “Just a little bump-in with one of Voldie’s cronies.  Nothing to be worried about.”

            “He could have killed you,” Harry said.

            “It was your blood he was after,” Ron said, “not mine.”

            “What are you doing out here?” Hermione asked.  “Harry thinks you’re looking for the Stone.”

            “Well…” Ron said.  “I was.  Pretty hopeless, huh?  I mean, I have no idea where you dropped it.  I tried summoning it but apparently the Hallows are charmed so you can’t do that.”

            “Look, Ron,” Harry said.  “I know you’re grieving right now, but finding the Stone isn’t going to bring Fred back.  I only saw the shells of my family when I used it.”

            “You used it?” Ron asked.  “What did you see?”

            “Well…they talked to me and encouraged me to make the sacrifice,” Harry said.  “They disappeared shortly after that.  Really, Ron, you’re cheating yourself if you think the Stone’s going to bring your brother back.”

            “I know, Harry.  It’s just…I want to see him one last time, to say goodbye.”  Ron betrayed a single tear that told Harry and Hermione just how much he was hurting.  Hermione gave Ron another hug and rubbed his back.

            “You won’t believe what I found while I was looking around out here.  Do you see those sparks in the sky?”  Harry and Hermione looked up and saw some red sparks hovering over the forest canopy.

            “Yeah, that’s how that bloke found me,” Ron said.  “That was thick of me.  But I needed to mark it so I could find it again.”

            “What is it?” Hermione asked.

            “I’ll show you,” Ron said.  He led the way through the trees towards the sparks he had cast.  Harry and Hermione struggled to follow through the thick roots.  Harry tore through his jeans getting caught on a particularly thick bramble, but he was used to the forest’s thick overgrowth.  Finally, the three wizards reached the clearing and saw what Ron had found important enough to mark.

            “A Vanishing Cabinet?” Hermione asked.

            “You bet!” Ron said.  “No idea what it’s doing here.  I guess one of the Death Eaters brought it here; this is where they were gathered, right, Harry?”

            “Yeah,” Harry said.

            “Anyway,” Ron continued, “I have no idea where this one leads, but I was too busy looking for the Stone to investigate, so that’s why I marked it.  And then that idiot caught me off guard and started demanding to know where you were, Harry.  I guess some of those blokes are still lurking around out here.”

            “Well, Ron, I wouldn’t mess with a Vanishing Cabinet if I were you,” Hermione said.  “You remember what happened to Montague when he got stuck in one.”

            “I know, but I don’t think this one is broken,” Ron said.  “It looks like it could lead somewhere.”

            “I don’t want to take that chance,” Hermione said.

            “Come on, Hermione, where’s your sense of adventure?” Ron asked.  Harry presumed he was desperate for some kind of distraction.

            “Ron,” Hermione said in an attempt to reason with him, “don’t you think it’s a bit odd that a Vanishing Cabinet would turn up in the middle of the Forbidden Forest?  We don’t even know why it’s here or where it could lead.  I would just leave it alone if I were you.”  Suddenly a spell whizzed past Hermione, and the three wizards turned immediately towards the source.  They saw another Death Eater running towards them through the clearing.

            “Great!” Harry said.  “Now what do we do?”

            “Get into the cabinet!” Ron said.  “It might take us somewhere we can Apparate.”  Harry and Hermione didn’t bother to argue as they followed Ron into the cabinet and shut it.  As the door closed, however, the Death Eater cast a spell that destroyed it.

            The three wizards suddenly felt a bizarre sensation as they were pulled into a portal that had appeared where the cabinet had been.  Harry tried to scream but his voice made no sound.  He couldn’t see through the void where which they were falling through, either.

            Harry had no idea which way was up as he tumbled through the darkness.  This was far more terrifying and nauseating than Apparition, as Harry had no idea where he’d be teleported to.  Suddenly, a sound ripped through the air and Harry felt his body begin to stretch out most unnaturally, as if it was simultaneously tearing through the air and being crushed, somehow.  The sensation was most uncomfortable, but it ended briefly.  Then, after more falling, a dim light suddenly appeared and the four wizards landed in the middle of a forest.

            Harry awoke after some period of time and saw his friends and, to his surprise, the Death Eater, now unmasked, lying unconscious on the ground.  His vision was blurry, though, as his glasses had fallen off of him.  Harry took his wand out of the pocket of his robe and used the Summoning Charm to return his glasses to his hand.  When he put them on and took a look around, though, he was shocked at what he saw.

            They were certainly in a forest, but it was unlike any forest Harry had ever seen.  This forest was dark yet colorful, as if Harry had just been flung into an animated cartoon.  Harry looked at his hand and yelled in surprise when he saw that his hand looked like it had been hand-drawn and painted.  What the hell happened? he thought.

            Harry revived his friends, whose appearance had changed drastically just as Harry’s hand had.  As they came to, they stared at their environment and at each other in shock.

            “Harry, what’s going on?” Hermione asked.  “Why do we look like we belong in a Looney Tunes short?”

            “What the hell are Looney Tunes?” Ron asked.  “And why does everything look like a painting?”

            “I don’t know,” Harry said.  “It must have something to do with the Vanishing Cabinet acting up.  What do we remember about what happened?”

            “Well,” Hermione said, “we entered the cabinet, and then that Death Eater destroyed it while we were in it.  After that…I think we were sucked into a portal, but I don’t remember anything else.  How about you, Ron?”

            “Beats me,” Ron said.  “I just want to know where the hell we are.”

            “Maybe it doesn’t matter,” Harry said.  “We could just try to Apparate somewhere and see if that works.”

            “Brilliant,” Hermione said.  “Take my hand, you two.”  Harry and Ron obliged, and Hermione concentrated on Diagon Alley.  When she spun, however, all that resulted was that the three of them toppled to the ground, as if they had felled their Apparition test all over again.

            “We must be out of range,” Hermione said, “and since we have no idea where we are, I can’t pick a closer target.”

            “Even if you could,” Ron said, “how do you explain the scenery?  How do you explain how we look?”

            “Honestly, Ron, I have no idea,” Hermione said, “and it’s starting to freak me out.”

            “No, Hermione,” Harry said, “the last thing we need to do is panic.  Let’s start with what we know.  Didn’t that Death Eater get sucked in, too?”  The three of them looked at the Death Eater still lying on the ground and identified him as Rowle.

            “What was he still doing in the forest, anyway?” Ron asked.

            “Apparently looking for me,” Harry said.  “I expect the others will have to deal with some rogue Death Eaters before all is said and done.”

            “Well, how does that explain our situation?” Ron asked.

            “It doesn’t,” Hermione said.  “None of this makes any sense.”

            “Well,” Harry suggested, “perhaps we should just look around.  We might be able to find somebody who lives around here to help us.”

            “Harry,” Ron said, “we’re in the middle of a forest.  I doubt we’ll find anyone to help us.”

            “You got any better ideas?” Harry asked.  Ron shook his head.

            “Lead the way,” he said.  Harry, Ron, and Hermione started trekking through the forest, and even if they knew where they had been they had no idea how to return to it.  The three were hopelessly lost and confused.

            After a few hours of endlessly walking around, just as the three wizards were about to give up hope for any kind of explanation, they discovered a hut in the middle of a twisted group of trees.  Actually, the hut looked like it was actually a hollowed-out tree with a door, and the harsh surroundings reminded Harry of the house of Gaunt.

            “Should we…go inside?” Hermione asked.

            “What else are we going to do?” Harry asked.  The three wizards approached the entrance to the tree and knocked on the door.  For a moment, there was no reply, but then they heard shuffling from within the tree and the door opened.

            Nothing could have prepared them for what they saw.

            Standing in the entrance was none other than a cartoon zebra with a mohawk wearing gold bands around her neck and front hooves and also gold earrings.  The zebra whinnied in surprise and lunged at them, fearing them to be wicked creatures.  Ron was tackled to the ground by the zebra, but Hermione whipped out her wand and knocked the zebra off of Ron with a spell.  The zebra tried to attack again, but Harry levitated her into the air to keep her from moving.  At that moment, the zebra began, to the amazement of the wizards, to talk.

            “Of all the creatures I have run into,” she said, “what in Equestria are you?”

            “Bloody hell, I’ve got to be dreaming…” Ron said.  Hermione nearly fainted, but Harry held his resolve.  Stranger things had happened to him, after all.

            “Eek!” the zebra exclaimed, responding to Ron’s quip.  “You can speak?”

            “Yes, we talk,” Harry said.  “My name is Harry Potter, and this is Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger.  We’re students from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.”

            “You are wizards?  How bizarre,” the zebra said.  “Did you study magic in this school afar?”

            “Does she really have to speak in rhymes?” Ron muttered.

            “Um…yes,” Hermione said, “we study magic.”

            “I’d like to learn about you more, but first, could you set me down on the forest floor?”

            “You have to promise not to attack my friend,” Harry said.

            “I will bring the fighting’s end.  I swear I will not harm your friend.”

            “Okay,” Harry said, and he set the zebra down on the ground.  She remained still as promised, deciding not to attack for her own sake, as she knew she was overpowered.

            “When it comes to your magic, forgive my scorn, but you sport no horn,” the zebra said.  “Are you not unicorns?”

            “What do unicorns have to do with it?” Ron asked.

            “You mean you don’t know?  Oh, how tragic,” the zebra declared.  “Only unicorns are practiced in magic.”

            “Well…not where we’re from,” Harry said.  “Where we’re from, humans study magic.”

            “Humans…?  Is that what you’re called?  If this is so, then I am appalled.”

            “Well, yes, we are called humans.” Hermione said.  “And you’re a zebra…right?”

            “Oh, let the royal horns sound!  We’ve finally found some common ground!” the zebra declared.  Ron stared at her in disbelief.  “I’m glad at least we’ve found a norm, for indeed I am a zebra in form.”

            “That last one was a stretch,” Ron whispered.

            “Um…” Hermione said.  “Do you have a name?”

            “I did not introduce myself?  How lame!  Yes, Zecora is my name.”

            “Well, Zecora,” Hermione asked, “could you care to tell us where we are?”

            “You are in the kingdom of Princess Celestia, the beautiful land of Equestria!”  The three wizards stared at Zecora in stunned silence.

            “Never heard of it,” Ron finally said.

            “Maybe you could explain the land of Equestria to us,” Harry suggested.

            “Hold on,” Ron said.  “Can we get someone else to do it?”

            “Why?” Hermione asked.

            “No offense, Zecora, but the rhyming is a bit confusing.”

            “I apologize for the confusion, but rhyming and speech for me is a fusion.  Now, step into my hut.  I will tell you what is what,” Zecora said with a grin.  Ron groaned and Zecora chuckled as the three wizards followed her into the hut.  They saw tribal masks adorning the walls, and the center of the room contained a large cauldron.

            “You brew potions?” Hermione asked in awe.

            “Yes, complex brews are what I do,” Zecora said.

            “Slant rhyme,” Ron coughed.

            “Never mind, Ron,” Harry said.  “It’s just that we brew potions where we’re from, too.”

            “And where exactly is that place, from which comes your human race?” Zecora asked.

            “Well, we go to school at Hogwarts,” Harry said, “but we’re from a planet called Earth.”

            “Earth…?  You mean like the name of the soil upon which we stand?” Zecora asked.

            “You’ve heard of it?” Hermione asked.

            “I did not know it as a name for the land,” Zecora said.

            “Well…it is,” Hermione said.  “But on Earth, zebras…well, they’re not sentient beings.”

            “What?” Zecora asked.  “How can this be true?”

            “Zebras just don’t talk like you,” Ron said, eager to finish her rhyme for her.

            “Knock it off, Ron,” Hermione said.  “Yes, and unicorns, though they contain powerful magical properties, don’t themselves practice magic.  Only witches and wizards are capable of that.”

            “Please forgive me for being crude.  What are you humans, if I’m not being rude?” Zecora asked.

            “Well…it’s hard to explain if you’ve never heard of them before,” Hermione said.

            “Just consider us sentient beings like you,” Harry intervened.

            “I suppose I must, to gain your trust,” Zecora said.

            “Trust?” Hermione asked.  “We trust you already, as much as we can in our situation.”

            “Oh, for me to say this is a must.  One must never blindly trust.”  Ron rolled his eyes.  “Tell me, and let your words be true.  What is the situation that has befallen you?”

            “Well, Zecora, it’s hard to explain,” Hermione said.  “The easiest way to understand it is that a portal opened up in our world and teleported us into yours.  And we don’t normally look like this.  We’re not so, um…colorful.”

            “I’m afraid I do not follow,” Zecora said, “but in this confusion I will not wallow.  Tell me what you want to know, and Zecora will surely show.”

            “Okay…” Harry said.  “What kinds of creatures live in Equestria?”

            “In Equestria, there are bands of ponies living on these lands,” Zecora said.  “Unicorns, pegasi, and Earth are the various types of birth.  Though these ponies are commonly at hand, the rare alicorns rule this land.  We ponies are peaceful, but don’t be foaled.  There are wicked creatures whose plights have been told.  Manticores, Hydras, and minotaurs abound, and danger lurks where they are found.  Should you choose to stay, beware!  Avoid these creatures if about your lives you care.”

            “Impressive,” Ron said, now legitimately admiring Zecora’s adept skills of rhyming.

            “So, Zecora,” Hermione asked, “do you have any idea how we could get back to where we’re from?”

            “You came through a portal, I hear.  Tell me, did the portal disappear?”

            “We…didn’t really look,” Harry said, “but I think we would have noticed it if it was here.”

            “If the portal’s door has closed away, then it is here that you must stay.  You will be safe if you heed my call, and avoid the dangerous creatures all.”

            “Well, the funny thing is,” Hermione said, “manticores are creatures where we’re from, and Hydras and minotaurs are mentioned in some of our mythology.  Our worlds seem to have a lot more in common than I thought.”

            “Indeed,” Zecora said.  “Since you are here, why don’t I lead you to a town of ponies with noble deeds?  Ponyville is the name of the town, and one pony knows the princess who bears the crown.  If you will follow me tonight, I will introduce you to Twilight.  Of magic she is of finest skill; she will help you, if meet her you will.”

            “That sounds wonderful!” Hermione said.  “Can you take us there now?”

            “I will lead you there, but stay in my sight.  The Everfree Forest is dangerous at night.”

            “Thank you so much!” Hermione said.  “Well, Harry, Ron, shall we get going?”

            “I suppose we’ll have to,” Ron said.

            “Okay then,” Harry said.  “Lead the way, Zecora.”

            Rowle finally came to long after Harry, Ron, and Hermione had left.  He looked around the clearing and was shocked to find how different the land looked to him.  He jumped when he saw his own hand had also changed appearance quite dramatically.  Rowle looked up at the sky, but the portal opened by the destroyed Vanishing Cabinet had long since closed in on itself.

            Damn it, he thought, where the hell am I?  Suddenly, out of nowhere, a blue blur tackled him back to the ground and tried to pin him down.  Rowle through the pony off of his body, but the pony recovered quickly and struck him down again.  Rowle made to push him aside again, but the pony interrupted.

            “I can do this all night, buddy,” she said, and Rowle was stunned that the pony was able to talk, so he conceded defeat.

            “Now, what the hay are you?” the pony asked.  Rowle was still stunned by the pony’s ability to talk, so he didn’t answer.

            “Can you talk?” the pony demanded.

            “Yes, I can talk,” Rowle growled.

            “Then what are you?” the pony asked, shoving him for good measure.

            “My name is Thorfinn Rowle,” the wizard said, “now will you get off me?”

            “I don’t think so…” the pony said.  “I don’t like the looks of you.  What are you doing in Equestria?”

            “Is that what this place is called?” Rowle asked.  “Let’s just say I dropped in.”

            “That explains nothing,” the pony said.  “I want to know where you’re from.”

            “Earth,” Rowle said snidely, thinking that the pony had never heard of it.

            “Like the ground?” the pony asked.

            “Huh?” Rowle asked, taken aback.

            “I mean, we call the ground Earth, and the ponies that live on the ground are Earth ponies, but I have a feeling you mean something else.”

            “Earth’s a planet,” Rowle said.

            “Planet…?” the pony wondered.  “Never mind.  I still don’t trust you, but it sounds like you’re not from here and you have no idea where you are.  If I get off of you, will you promise not to attack me?”

            “Why would I do that?” Rowle asked.

            “I’ve never seen anything like you before.  I’ve gotta assume the worst.”

            “Well, to be fair,” Rowle said, “I have no idea what you are either.”

            “I’m a pegasus,” the pony said, “and my name is Rainbow Dash.”

            “That’s an odd name,” Rowle said.

            “Not as odd as Thorfinn.  I mean, really?”

            “Can it, Rainbow Dash,” Rowle said.

            “Look, Thorfinn, I’ll make you a deal.  If you promise not to attack me, I’ll take you back to town and have my friend Twilight Sparkle look you over.  She’s like a total egghead, so if she doesn’t know what you are, then we’re flat-out stumped, but she’ll probably know what you are, at least I hope.”

            “And why should I trust you?” Rowle asked.  “You attacked me when I wasn’t looking.”

            “Because you’re in my territory,” Rainbow Dash said, “and without me you’d never get out of this forest alive.  Lots of dangerous creatures lurk around here.”  As if on cue, a manticore cried in the background.

            “Was that a manticore?” Rowle asked.

            “How the buck do you know what a manticore is?” Rainbow Dash asked.  “Are you sure you’re not from here?”

            “Positive,” Rowle said.  “But we have ponies where we’re from, too.  They just don’t talk or have girly names like Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle.”

            “Watch it, buddy,” Rainbow Dash said.  “Look, do we have a deal or not?”

            “We have a deal,” Rowle said.

            “Then let’s shake on it,” Rainbow Dash said.  She spit into her hoof and extended it towards Rowle.  Not wanting to irritate the pony anymore, he spit into his hand and shook the pony’s hoof.  Rowle thought that it was one of the most bizarre things he had ever done.

            “Okay, let’s go,” Rainbow Dash said.  Rowle reluctantly followed.  This is so embarrassing…


YESH YESHHHHH IM A HARDCORE POTTERHEAD AND MLP FAN I LOVE THIS SOOOO MUCH!!!


"the bird" is called Fawkes and " the giant snake" is called a basilisk


Why does Hermione remind me of my best friend?


harry potter and mlp together is harry trotter


I mean. . . The wand battle took place in movie/book 4, so you at least have seen that part of it


I know that this is completely not related to MLP  and HP, but i've got to ask. If a pheonix is suppose to turn into ashes and be reborn... Does Marco the Phoenix from One Piece have to do that too? Anyone can answer this.


Erm,, you forgot an obvious one that doesn't relate to a specific book. In "Glass of Water", as sung by Discord, look at "A magic spell to cure disease". It doesn't even represent specific characters, except Harry and what I think to be Lucius Malfoy.


‘As the bird saves harry from the giant snake’ it is supposed to say, ‘As Fawkes, Albus Dumbledore’s pheonix, saves Harry from Lord Voldemort’s basilisk.’

AM I A POTTERHEAD OR WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?


HOW CAN YOU NOT READ AND WATCH ALL THE HARRY POTTERS?!!?! I HAVE MY ROOM FULL OFF HARRY POTTER STUFF!!!

People actually compare? I didn't know. I have a <br>un-harry-potter-ish room but I'm still a fan.

People actually compare? I didn't know. I have a
un-harry-potter-ish room but I'm still a fan.

@okapihoof  nice.  We are all different houses though

@Kay Lah mine is like the Ravenclaw common room with literally all H.P. stuff I can find

I literally have my room exactly like a Griffindor dormartty and 1 (big)  room full of all Harry Potter  merchandise that I could find so all the harry Potter Merch that there is I own.  I guarantee no one has more hp stuff than me in the WORLD.


that wand battle looked much like the battle between sunrise and midnight

it is not sunrise it is daydream shimmer and midnight sparkle


I have never watched any of the Harry Potter movies or read the books but I'm like "OH MAH GOSH"


Rainbow-Harry Potter
Twilight-Hermionie
Apple Jack-Ron
Flim Flam brothers-George and Percy Weasly
Celestia-Dumbledore
Luna-Snape
Fluttershy-Hagrid
Sunset Shimmer-Malfoy
Cutie Mark Crusaders(Apple Bloom+Scootaloo+Sweetie Bell)-Fluffy the 3 headed dog


I love harry potter and mlp to see this is amazing


Just for fun, I'm going to sort them into houses
Twilight-Ravenclaw
Rarity-Slytherin
Rainbow Dash- Gryffindor
Fluttershy- Hufflepuff
Pinkie Pie- Hufflepuff
Applejack- Gryffindor
(reply what you think should be different)

I have a different opinion, the mane six are all in Gryffindor but their secondary houses are different
Twilight- Ravenclaw
Fluttershy- Hufflepuff
Pinkie Pie- Hufflepuff
Applejack- Hufflepuff
Rarity-  Slytherin or Ravenclaw
Rainbow Dash- Slytherin

I would sort Rarity in Ravenclaw too. I suppose Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, Discord, Trixie and Cozy Glow belong in Slytherin.


the battle with harry and voldemort looks a lot like the one with twilight and tirek


I bet you if you watch all the movies and read all the books, you will find a lot of more "coincidences"


"Please note that I haven't read the Harry Potter books and only seen the movies"
"Hold it!"
How. Dare. You.
How dare you try to write off any paralells, inspirations and such, when you have only movies to use?!
Read. The. Books.
They are worth it.
The movies mix and even destroy things that are in the movies.

@RivvieGoBrr oh I am at the end of the fourth book.

@waste land the third book in the harry potter series

I have read the whole book series. Did you know there is a new book called 'the cursed child'

@That Horse That Drives a Sherman Tank it only took me a month to read the 5th book.

Serena Hemora I read book 3 FIRST EDITION in LESS than a week.

QueenSalis is right. The movies are discording (sorry bad pun.) discarding parts of the books. For example the SOLID FACT they Dolores Umbrige is VERY much indeed FAT.

Lol no. You can still love a story even if you havent read the book. Just like how I feel with A Walk To Remember, It, and so on. The stories got me deep and basically obssessed with them. So watching the movie reallllllly made me love it, so I wanted to read the books but I cant go out to the library alone when Im only 12.

VeenaWish She can be passionated and respect people. HP is not the topic of this channel, so he doesn't have to read the books if he doesn't want to. I'm also a huge HP fan who read all the books and all the movies, but I won't judge people because they only saw the movies

The only book I'm comfortable in reading is Warriors by Erin hunter

Do what QueenSalis says or you go to Azkaban

The movies are the same as the books though.

+QueenSalis lay of it..i have read all the harry potter book and watched all the movies and the books are sometimes quite hard to read.....he never claims that hes a harry potter fan and its not like his whole channels harry potter relaited it an mlp channel. Hes made one video about harry potter and its not like you need a whole lot oh harry potter knowledge to make a video like this. Not everyone needs or wants to read the harry potter books, its their choice. hes not doing a potter theory or anything like that, hes merely used a few harry potter clips to draw some parallels and hes correct , stop making people feel bad and having a go just because they havent read a series of books!!!!!

+QueenSalis <br>Guys I know this is none of my business, and I don't mean to be rude! (I'm a super HP fan, I've read ALL the books AND watched ALL the movies...) But seriously, don't take this the wrong way. Just take a chill pill! It's not life and death, and Serena Hemora is quite right to say it was her choice. We have public rights. But also, Serena, QueenSalis has a very strong PERSONAL opinion. It matters to her a lot more than it does to you. She is simply being passionate about what she likes. So both of you need to either take a chill pill or get over it.

I still don't want to see the movies quite yet... 6th book, halfblood prince. My brother has them all and  all the moves and the games, too. Once he was in love with the books and movies. But then he moved on... :(

@Madeline Corbier As with the first: From what I know, PDF's are on the internet free to read, so you don't have to own the books. :)<br>As for the second: Yes, yes this is true. And while audiobooks also are out there, they are more likely to be paid, shady, requiring lotsa digging... Still possible to aquire with some effort.

@QueenSalis COOL IM READING BOOK THREE IN THE SERIES!!!!!!!!!!!!

@Kevin Lynn I can't admit how many times I've reread the books sense I finished watching all the movies...

@Kevin Lynn I've read all the books before watching the movies 10 times...

@QueenSalis I don't know... It made the fifth book seem far more understandable. Took me nearly four months to read the dammed thing, mainly from the fact that the freaking talking at some points was going no where.

@Serena Hemora It's not about putting every single thing in the movie, everyone understands that there is a time limit.
But swapping the order of events in the 3rd movie was a shot in the foot from filmmakers. They lost beautiful quarrel and drama they could put in the movie just to make cool ending shot.

y the way I think Harry Potter's ecranisation should've been a tv series. It gives much more screen time without making "5 hours long movies" There would be 7 seasons of the show, much more franchise posibilities, space tu put everything in in the right order.

And about your metaphor. No, this is not what we are doing. We are saying that when someone has a wonderful and very interesting book series to ecranise, they should treat them with respect, not be like "oh, they'll pay anyway, so why care to preserve anything from the original"?

And when did he ever say he loved harry potter? When did I ever say it? I LIKE the Harry Potter movies but when have I said I LOVE the Harry Potter franchise?? Never.

But you know, we are getting off the topic of WHY I replied in the first place. @QueenSalis was appalled that BN was making a parallel vid about HP only basing it off the movies. the first three movies to be exact. To me, that is shaming him for doing something like this in the first place. He even mentioned that he MIGHT HAVE missed SOME parallels!

Both of you think for a moment. I don't know if this actually applies to you too but just hear me out for a moment. Say you are a heavy set girl, and not just the little pudgy type, I mean the wears 4XL heavy. And you have this beautiful dress that you were going to wear to your prom and your date loves you in it. Now sure this dress probably looks better on someone who is way thinner but you feel confident about yourself in it. You get to school ready for the prom and all your classmates and even the school staff says to you that you should have lost weight before even thinking about putting on that dress.

How would you feel? That is the same concept that you both are doing.

@Serena Hemora  we aren't shaming.  We aren't judging.  We are just angry.   You would understand the type of crap that people do, saying they love harry potter and have only saw the movies.  It's the easy way out.

@QueenSalis @Lexie Fraze

Ok both of you need to calm down. This is what just makes me sad. Stop shaming someone who hasn't read the books. There is not enough time in a movie to put EVERY SINGLE THING in the books in. Plus, sometimes you have to rearrange things in the movie for them to MAKE SENSE to someone who hasn't read the books. That is what filmmakers have to deal with. Honestly, the first movie alone would have been a 5 hour movie, maybe more, if they had put every single thing in it. Would you want to sit through a 5+ hour long movie? AND the fourth and fifth books, alone, would have been like 7+ parts if they had put every thing in those books.

THIS is why I HATE people who judge people on watching the movies before reading the books. I CHOSE to watch the movies BEFORE reading the books. That was MY CHOICE. I, and subsequently he, don't need people like you telling me/him what I/he need(s) to do.

@Lexie Fraze Exactly!

@Serena Hemora;
  Taking only movies into account people achieve annoying paradoxes that make them forget about pieces of movies that contradict one another. Also, If someone read the books, as they progress through the movies, they start to be SO ANNOYED!
3rd: "This shouldn't have happened before that! He received this damn broom much sooner and lot of stuff happened AFTER that, how can you end a movie here?!"
4th: "hey, you missed hilarious scene! why are you starting movie here?!" and so forth, and so on.
The books are all what the original author, Rowling, wanted to tell us.
Movies are what the filmmakers wanted us to see so we pay for it. They are chopping cool scenes away, adding other, and most unforgivable - swap the order.

@Serena Hemora Oh, I'm not mad at him because of the harry potter parallels.  I'm mad at him 'cause he didnt read the books sense the movies arent really acquit  enough to know the best of the harry potter story.

@QueenSalis OMG MY REACTION!  YOU TELL HIM!

@QueenSalis OMG MY REACTION!  YOU TELL HIM!

@Serena Hemora Calm you down, will you? "Harry Potter" is a book series. Movies from third and on can't really be consider... canon.

I have a little request. Please read all the books. Seeing "ALL the movies" gives you not much more information than he has. As they go, movies get less and less according to the books.

I didn't "go off" on anyone. What I did was a comic exaggeration. I'm not "shaming" anyone, I would just like if people read the books.

Also, parallel videos would be better if they considered more plot and characters similarities, not the visual solutions, which this video mostly is focused on. To see greater plot of Harry Potter, one has to read the books. Twice. Because movie makers didn't know where it all was going, and missed some details, made some plot holes for the sake of cool imagery and such.

@QueenSalis OK.....whoa whoa whoa whoa. Stop right there. There is enough in the first three movies that one can start to see parallels. And honestly, I have only read up to book 4 and seen ALL the movies. I know enough about Harry Potter that I can probably pull more references than he can. But people like you who just go off on someone just because they start making HP references and have only see so many movies and haven't read any of the books makes me sad that you are a HP fan. You have NO right to shame someone just because they have only seen three movies and haven't read the books and they decide to do a HP parallel vid.

@QueenSalis that: "Hold it!" its ace atorney reference right?

I agree full heartily with you even though I regret to inform I have just started to read the books. They are worth it though

Also Rowling wrote better love story in one chapter that Meyer in 4 enermous books. :P

@QueenSalis I know dude. I know. And I feel kind of bad for not reading the books before seeing the movies.


Guys, I don't care if you think MLP and HP are nowhere near each other. <br>I love this theory!!!

The Mudbl- I mean Muggle born conversation was from the Chamber of Secrets. (just look at Ron for proof)


In three's a crowd in the song one glass of water at 1:25 you can see a Hogwarts image in which Discord is a Slytherin, Cadance is a Ravenclaw and Twilight a Gryffindor


"The bird saves Harry from the big snake" wth?


Finally someone posts it!! I was searching for it! Thanks!


YAY they mentioned my two favorite HP movies


We have advanced magic, Harry Potter, the “Akrakadabra!”, Voldemort. I know this is for MLP, but I couldn’t help myself. Anyone else hear that?


Woah woah woah, is that Toothless in your profile picture?


Also, I'll write it. I'm an accomplished fan fiction writer, and I'd like to point out that Twilight is celestia's STUDENT. Am accomplished prefect, maybe?


I haven't read the books either, but soon I'll be finishing up the movies! I just need to watch the deathly hallows parts 1 and 2 then I'll have watched all the Harry Potter movies. Then, after that, fantastic beasts!!

Jennifer Jansen Cuz I is a busy homeschooled middle schooler

Meaghan McIntyre why you not read Harry Potter?!?!


If you've only seen the first 3 movies, how'd you use a clip from The Goblet of Fire, the fourth movie?


(Sarcastically) you must be brave to say "his" name

Why are you people so scared? Because it means "Flight from DEATH"?!?!??!?!?????!?????!!!!!!!


Mud-blood sounds like an offence I always thought the term muggle born sounds better


for some reason the veela kinda remind me of the dazzlings (sirens in the human world)


Harry Potter = Rainbow dash and Draco Malfoy = Lightning dust. Right XD?

Except there are no boys in the cutie mark crusaders

@Hacki_Dreemurr Agreed, they were both seen as brats and bullies in the beginning and got redemptions at the end. Also Cutie Mark Crusaders= Harry, Ron, Hermione


as much as i love MLP, i would have to put a stop to it when you bring up Harry potter. Yes there is similar things, but HP and MLP were made at different times. So unless they did this on purpose then MLP and Hp are different.


The books said Hermione didn't know what a Mudblood was.


you should  totally  watch  the  last harry potter it's so awesome ! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I don't really like Harry Potter, but I enjoyed the video.


Pumpkin cake is not a mudblood, because that's a VERY derogatory name! If anything, call her muggle born, but do NOT say that word about her!!!

“It’s not a term one usually hears in civilized conversation.” -Hermione Granger, Chamber of Secrets

I AGREE!!!!!!(to brony notoin: HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT SHE'S A FUTURE WITCH!!!!!! or quidditch player I forgot which one has wings and which one doesn't


There is a scene in the episode The royal wedding where it shows harry potter as a pony. He is standing in the crowd when the real Cadance is walking down the isle. Crossover!!  :-)


Him: please note I haven't read the books<br>His HP fans: READ THE BOOKS!!!!!

Him: please note I haven't read the books
His HP fans: READ THE BOOKS!!!!!


Just saying, pheonixes all do that, it's part of their mythology


The Saphire Stone sounds like The Philosophers Stone


You said Mudblood. That's a bad word. It's Muggle-Born<br>


Oh my gosh same! I only watched the first four movies and nothing else. At least ... until I read the books (I'm on number six! :)


You should read the harry potter series. I think its really cool.


If you've only seen the FIRST three movies, then how did you know about the wand battle scene between Harry and Voldomort?


0:51
HOW COULD YOU, NOTION?!
BASILIK, NOT SNAKE! FAWKES, NOT BIRD!
#TheBronyNotionNeedsToReadHarryPotterButWillStillBeCoolEvenIfHeDoesn't

The Phoenix is a bird<br>The baslisk is a snake

The Phoenix is a bird
The baslisk is a snake


Love it but all pheonixes do the bir up and die thing so that one isn't viable.


Hermione : He called me a mudblood...
Hagrid : He did not!
Harry : whats a mudblood?
Harry... you should know..
