![]() With so much working against him, none of us should fall in love with him, right? He has a nasty temper and takes it out on the world, not to mention that he apparently hates shampoo. He's obsessed with the dark arts and mistreats the girl he loves the most. He doesn't have the Marauders' dashing looks, or their finesse. It's also easy to fall in love with the older generation of Hogwarts students: Sirius seems like the perfect rebel, Lupin is responsibly adorable, and James is the typical suave Gryffindor. They're the heroes of the story, they try to always do the right thing, and as a kid I always identified with them. It's easy to love Harry, Ron, and Hermione. I simply can't resist a character who seems purely evil at the start but worms their way into my heart. Who can resist a brooding antihero? And who can resist the romance of Harry Potter? Despite Snape's flaws, I can't help but care deeply about the Potions professor we all once hated. He may be a controversial character, but I don't care: I love Severus Snape from Harry Potter.
