Thats what a Slytherin was. Highly skilled and ingenious. They were never inherently evil, but alas they were corrupted.

But genuine question, doesn't the Harry Potter world canonically have a truth serum? Why would there ever be the need to torture someone for information when you could just fill them up with the serum to get all the info you want?
@@doomse150 1. Maybe they didn't have that potion at the time in their pocket. 2. Why would they not torture her? They most likely enjoyed it anyways...
was a pity they didn't include her in the movies, could have had Helena Bonham Carter play her as well as Bellatrix... they looked alike... Harry even mistook her for Bella
Yesss thiss!! I love when Harry finally conscious, the first person he saw was Andromeda and while thinking he and hagrid just randomly crashing into someones house, he’s so panic and immediately try to fight her while he literally just broke like half of his ribs
- I agree that Helena could have played both characters. She is an amazing actress and would have easily pulled it off and it would have added another subtle layer to the movie. What a cool idea you had!
Exactly why the Harry Potter books would've been better as a streaming series than movies. It's unfortunate streaming hadn't yet taken off when the movies were being made.
As kids we thought the Gryffindors were the only valiant heroes. Bravery and protectiveness takes many forms. Some die to protect, other will stain their own hands with blood to protect.
Yes. the movie intentionally chose to exclude or give importance story arcs to wonderful characters like these..Tonk was the coolest character of all being a shape shifter. Just wished they focused on her sacrifice and her story. There was a scene where she and Lupin announced her pregnancy and it was brushed away like it means nothing because it doesn’t concern the great Harry Potter. The movies need to be remade to do justice to these wonderful characters of the wizarding world including Ron and Ginny.
Lol you know nothing about filmmaking. You cant make the movies 4 hours long and stuff them with a bunch of characters and plotlines that the casual viewer would be unable to follow just to appease book fans.
I forget if it was in the epilogue, or if JK Rowling said it later, but Narcissa and Lucius were never quite able to be accepting of Muggleborns and Muggles. Their DIL was accepting and got Draco to be as well, but I guess Narcissa and Lucius were too stuck in their ways.
@@elizabethkelley2559 I suspect after the war Narcissa and Lucius retreated from public life mostly due to shame and stigma. I do like to think that Draco and his wife would at least make an attempt to speak with andromeda since he’s basically now the head of the Malfoy and black families, plus he probably would want Scorpio to be able to speak with her and teddy as that’s some of his few family members.
One of the best possibility for next Harry potter world movies is Voldemort's uprising and The way Harry's parents and other resistance force fought Voldemort in their time till the time Harry was born.
Somehow she became the "official" fancast among the fandom editors (such as myself but I wouldn't have casted her either haha), I love Keira Knightley but I don't necessarily see her as Andromeda. But I think she has quite a few movies that fit into the Slytherin kind of aesthetic so from an editor's point of view she would be an obvious choice!
I think she also looks like she could be related to Katie McGrath, the fancast for younger Bellatrix, who would be excellent to play her imo. And in the book, Harry first thought Andromeda was Bellatrix because they look very similar but she had kinder, softer features. Which I think Keira does have when comparing her and Katie. Edit: also I’m not saying Katie doesn’t have soft kind features either but damn she could so play Bellatrix just remembering her performance as Morgan le Fay
It’s sad because Ted, Tonks, and Bellatrix died. She may have been conflicted about her sister but I imagine she was devastated. Add the layer that Tonks didn’t like her given name for whatever reason. It would be a wild story to tell from her perspective. Having to raise Teddy and him spending an obscene amount of time with the Potters. I imagine she was extremely lonely in her later years.
I can't relate to the fact of seeing my family or friend on the other side of war but I doubt she was devastated at Bellatrix's death . Bellatrix killed her cousin , her daughter , her husband , probably tortured her too .I imagine Bellatrix to be one of the youngest to join Voldemort and their relationship would have broken right there .
She also raised Teddy for a couple of years Harry and Ginny got married after losing her husband, daughter and son in law. Edit: thanks for everyone who clarified that he lived with Andromeda for his whole life and just visited the Potters' often.
@@ddelarosa96nah, Regulus is not a good person. He is fine with most of the death eater stuff, it just crossed his line when they started torturing Kreacher (i.e. his pet). That's like saying a serial killer is a good human because he liked his pet and goes on a huge revenge arc for them. It helps the good cause, but there is no good motive
@@MrTrollo2as far as we know from the books, Regulus Black never killed anyone☝️ Even Sirius thinks that his brother chickened out of the Death Eaters when he found out what the kinds of things they were actually going to make him do, and that they hunted him down and killed him for defecting☝️ Regulus bought into the “pure-blood supremacy” because he was indoctrinated with it from day one, and thought that joining the Death Eaters would make his parents proud after they were so bitterly disappointed by their eldest son rejecting everything Slytherin and running away from home. He was basically still an entry-level sheep who hadn’t seen any of the horrific stuff yet, a 🤩fan of the Dark Lord’s high ideals and charisma when Voldy asked for the use of his House Elf, and didn’t find out until _after_ Kreacher came home, how vile the Dark Lord really was, which made him question all the pure-blood supremacy ideals he was raised with, and the kind of cult he’d actually joined☝️ Regulus loved his family, including Kreacher, and didn’t want to disappoint any of them, but also knew that he couldn’t live with his conscience and stay with the Death Eaters after discovering what the Dark Lord was really like, so he found perhaps the only way to get out honorably by doing his part to bring Voldy down and at the same time protecting his family by swearing Kreacher to secrecy about what he did😢
One of the aspects of the "Harry Potter" series, which I find powerful, is the dark reality of the world. How it closes in, robbing the youthful innocence of the protagonists, and replacing it with the dark necessity of adult life. It's very analogous to the world in which we live today.
A series of Flukes . I shudder to imagine what would have happened if just something went wrong in the final year / 7th book . The war or the story itself would have been far darker .
A Slytherin that marries a Ravenclaw and has a child that is in Hufflepuff who then goes on to marry a man who was a Gryffindor. Ain’t that something lol
My favorite Harry did for Andromeda was giving her Sirius's inheritance to her and Edward. Since it was supposed to go to him and it was really nice for him to do Harry gave away his winnings in the Goblet fire to the Weasley family.
Raising kids in the wizarding world is a blessing. Your kids are in a safe place, they are fed and taught. Parents get time to do their work. The real world has boarding schools too but with all sorts of abuse, it's scary experience.
I wonder sometimes if, after the Second Wizarding War, Andromeda and Narcissa finally met together, at least once. Andromeda lost a husband, daughter, son-in-law, and sister in the war, and she was left to raise her grandson. Narcissa, of course, lost the same sister, but otherwise her family was intact. I can imagine the meeting between the two surviving sisters. I wonder if Narcissa would take Draco with her to Andromeda's house.
I like to imagine that Lucius drank himself to an early death, and when he died Andromeda and Narcissa met for tea and cards once a month to boast over their grandchildren and share childhood memories ... Sometimes I imagine that Narcissa was loyal to her family most of all and it broke her heart when the sister closest to her was disowned. Bellatrix probably did her best to lord it over and scare her younger siblings.
@@dirgniflesuoh7950 Yeah, that's a good headcanon. There is a fanfilm where the three sisters are the MCs, and that's the idea they followed in their storytelling, Narcissa being heartbroken when it was revealed Andromeda was in love with Ted and therefore disowned.
@@dirgniflesuoh7950 if we accept the cursed child as cannon then Lucius retreats from public life in disgrace pardoned only because his wife and son defected and helped with winning the war. Draco then became the head of the family and laid down the law saying point blank that him and his wife were not going to raise Scorpio to believe in pure blood supremacy and they supported his friendship with Albus potter and that because of this family gatherings with grandpa Lucius were “tense”
@@asher8754 Yes, I have read it, and my thought was (even before I read it) that Lucius turned bitter and blamed his wife and son for the defeat of Voldemort, and if only his Dark Lord had won, he would have somehow got back in favour and his "rightful place" lording it over almost everybody ... A bitter and spiteful grandfather who drank to much, not very grateful to Narcissa or Draco for saving him from lifetime in Azkaban. A man who wasn't graceful in gratitude, his family should be indebted to him.
@@dirgniflesuoh7950 eh.. while clearly the worst of the Malfoys I suspect by the end of DH after all the shit that went down at Malfoy manor he’d realized Tom riddle was insane and would kill him and his family the minute he won the war. That’s why he never tried to win back favor by turning in or killing his son and wife for their defections and instead chose to leave with them and not take part in the fight. Say what you will about that loathsome man he did love his family.
I've read all of the Harry Potter books and I barely remember any of it 😭 I remember the saddest part was Sirius death, and how boring when the 3 of them were hiding, that's mostly it.
Like that really good Voldemort prequel made by the fans House of Gaunt🔥. The IP is popular enough, just about any spinoff about a known wizarding family would be good.
She also raised her grandson after her daughter died and was supportive of her marrying a werewolf and not making her go through the same stuff she went through for marrying ted
She also raised her grandson after losing all the rest of her family - husband, daughter, even son-in-law - and she was still so supportive of Teddy when Harry was too young to take care of him.
She also lost her sister Bellatrix in the battle of Hogwarts because Molly killed her. I mean Bellatrix killed Sirius, Dobby and wanted to kill Ginny so I can understand why Molly did that but also I can’t understand because Bella might be a terrible person but even she didn’t deserve to die. No one deserves to die. Even if they did really really bad things. Ignore the last part pls
@@Stayville_Clown I agree that Noone deserves to die, but at the same time, a person can be so far gone that even if you attempted, and were successful in detaining them, their hatred of you and everything you hold dear can wind up inevitably causing a death somewhere down the line, Bellatrix was so psychopathic that she would have found a way to escape Azkaban and immediately went for Molly and the weasleys for detaining her, or Harry and ginny because of Harry killing voldemort
@@viper2003923 Agreed . Sometimes it's even worse to allow someone to live rather than killing them because they are just too dangerous . The reality is that some people are so far passed the point of no return that they will never change or be rehabilitated and it's a foolish death wish to think you can, Bellatrix was just such a person. Bellatrix gave Molly no choice but to kill her because she openly threatened the rest of Molly's family and there was no doubt she would indeed have happily made good on that threat if given even the slightest chance.
Simewhere on that list HAS to be the bloody baron,his story is a sad one but shows him as more than the scary slytherin ghost that can get peeves to behave himself Ok because replies seem to think im calling him good Interesting/underrated≠good Uf a character is barely mentioned and is not really 'nice' or 'good' but you still remember their story and would watch a spin-off series then theyre underrated and intersting
You mean the guy who KILLED Helena Ravenclaw because she had the NERVE to not want to be with him?! Why do you think he has blood on him as a ghost and wears chains? Why do you think the Grey Lady is so sad? Why do you think he's CALLED the Bloody Baron????!!!
@@bharatdhurua953 When Helena Ravenclaw left Hogwarts with her mother's Diadem, she went to Albania and hid in a forest there. Rowena sent the Baron to bring her back. He found her but when she refused, jealous of her freedom and p@#sed off that she refused him, the Baron flew into a rage and killed her by stabbing her-hence the blood. After he had recovered and realised what he did, the Baron was "filled with guilt and remorse" and committed suicide, stabbing himself with the same blade.
@@fireidar i never said he was good nor that he was right,i simply said hes underrated and has a sad story,people dont tak about him (or any of the ghosts besides nick and myrtle) nearly enough im not defending him i just think hes an interesting character that neinther fans nor JK herself talk about much similar to Krum who is used to make ron jelous and then mostly forgotten

who was last mentioned flirting wiht the daughter Ron and ginny's non wizard cousin wich the family was thrilled buy cause it would make him even more a member of the family
@@WardNightstone No, he was openly kissing Bill and Fleur's witch/ part Veela daughter Victoire, thus a first Weasley cousin to the Potter children. The Potter family was delighted because it would bring Teddy directly into their Weasley ( Ginny's ) side of the family if he married her. This actually proves the one happy Weasley family theory that all of the good guys will become family through the Weasley's.
The three Black sisters were cousins to Sirius Black. Bellatrix married into the Lestranges (Rodolphus), Narcissa married into the Malfoys (Lucius), and Andromeda married into the Tonkses (Ted). So Nymphadora AND Draco were cousins to Sirius by extension, as well as Harry’s godson Teddy.
@@erys8957 So when you think about how both Hermione and Harry married into the Weasleys (making them sister and brother in law), the major characters are all related. Except for pretty much the Hogwarts staff, only a few outliers are unconnected by marriage or blood.
@@TheBrandiElizabeth Well the purebloods all married each other, Sirius' parents were even first cousins I think. So yes, most of them are probably related.
Andromeda was ousted by her family because she married for love, raised Tonks to be an auror, gave Harry temporary residence, tolerated torture from death eaters, lost her husband, daughter, and son-in-law, and raised her grandson. THIS WOMAN NEEDS A STANDALONE BOOK ❤
While I do agree, I think it's for the better if we don't get any more Harry Potter books. Otherwise, I have a feeling that the next one might be a Voldemord fanfic.
Apparently she looked so similar to her sister Bellatrix that Harry nearly attacked her on sight in panic! Would've loved to see Helena cameo her as a side part.

It's a shame that both she and Nymphadora were underrated in the films. Both must've been pretty badass.
But genuine question, doesn't the Harry Potter world canonically have a truth serum? Why would there ever be the need to torture someone for information when you could just fill them up with the serum to get all the info you want?
@@doomse150I always ask myself the same question
@@doomse150
1. Maybe they didn't have that potion at the time in their pocket.
2. Why would they not torture her? They most likely enjoyed it anyways...
Few slytherens go bad. Just like few anyone goes that bad. Plenty of evil griffindoors.
was a pity they didn't include her in the movies, could have had Helena Bonham Carter play her as well as Bellatrix... they looked alike... Harry even mistook her for Bella
WAIT THEY DIDNT??? HOW DARE THEY
Yesss thiss!! I love when Harry finally conscious, the first person he saw was Andromeda and while thinking he and hagrid just randomly crashing into someones house, he’s so panic and immediately try to fight her while he literally just broke like half of his ribs
- I agree that Helena could have played both characters. She is an amazing actress and would have easily pulled it off and it would have added another subtle layer to the movie. What a cool idea you had!
What a great mother, calling her daughter Nymphadora.
Smart enough to cast the Keira Knightly charm on herself. That’s brilliant.
When Harry first saw her, he was about to attack her because she looks so much like her sister Bellatrix.
So sad she never appeared in the movies
She appeared in pirates of the carribean
@@meleemaster5898 Although she was traumatized there as well, as she failed to acquire a jar of dirt
@@CharterForGaming 🤣
@@CharterForGaming She did manage to get rid of all of Jack's rum though lol. "Why is the rum gone" She had some tricks up her sleeve that's for sure
Exactly why the Harry Potter books would've been better as a streaming series than movies. It's unfortunate streaming hadn't yet taken off when the movies were being made.
The good guys really went through it in Harry Potter , so much trauma
As kids we thought the Gryffindors were the only valiant heroes. Bravery and protectiveness takes many forms. Some die to protect, other will stain their own hands with blood to protect.
I like to believe that Sirius saw her defying against her family and running away and was motivated to do the same
Kind Slytherins are so good, they're badass without even trying to be bad.
She's literally my fave Slytherin and one of the best characters
Thank you for coming to my Ted Tonks!
Yes. the movie intentionally chose to exclude or give importance story arcs to wonderful characters like these..Tonk was the coolest character of all being a shape shifter. Just wished they focused on her sacrifice and her story. There was a scene where she and Lupin announced her pregnancy and it was brushed away like it means nothing because it doesn’t concern the great Harry Potter. The movies need to be remade to do justice to these wonderful characters of the wizarding world including Ron and Ginny.
Well what did you want the HARRY POTTER movies to focus on? 😭
Lol you know nothing about filmmaking. You cant make the movies 4 hours long and stuff them with a bunch of characters and plotlines that the casual viewer would be unable to follow just to appease book fans.
@gvngbvngiggy
Perhaps a series this time. Game of Thrones would never have acknowledged half of it's characters in movies.
I like to think that after the second wizarding war ended, Narcissa reached out to Andromeda and they mended their relationship
I forget if it was in the epilogue, or if JK Rowling said it later, but Narcissa and Lucius were never quite able to be accepting of Muggleborns and Muggles. Their DIL was accepting and got Draco to be as well, but I guess Narcissa and Lucius were too stuck in their ways.
@@elizabethkelley2559 I suspect after the war Narcissa and Lucius retreated from public life mostly due to shame and stigma. I do like to think that Draco and his wife would at least make an attempt to speak with andromeda since he’s basically now the head of the Malfoy and black families, plus he probably would want Scorpio to be able to speak with her and teddy as that’s some of his few family members.
Showing us a scene where Tonks says to never call her Nymphadora right after you call her Nymphadora...cold 😂
One of the best possibility for next Harry potter world movies is Voldemort's uprising and The way Harry's parents and other resistance force fought Voldemort in their time till the time Harry was born.
Whoa didn't know Nymphodora had a brave mom 🥰❤
Finally, a Slytherin that wasn't a classist, racist, abusive bully. As a Pottermore assigned Slytherin, I'm relieved
Snape wasn’t a classist, racist or bully.
@@Pg-ch5nb the man who tormented an 12 year old child for looking like his father wasn't a bully?
@user-dg6pp2to1d Snape was definitely a bully. Have you forgotten how he treated Neville and every other Non syltherin?
@@faithojo6887 he had a better heart than that as proven in the last book with his actions. his mind was harsh but his heart was in the right place
ayoo slytherins are very legal and very cool. Say no to anti-Slytherin discrimination, haha.
"Wotcher, Harry"
- the perhaps coolest line Nymphadora ever said imo
Tonks is just the proof of how great Andromeda and Ted were as parents, such a cool family!
I would love to see Keira and James casted for a HP movie
WE. DON'T. TALK. ABOUT. ANDROMEDA.
But who decided to fancast Keira Knightley? I just can't imagine it.
Why not?
Thank you!!! I was looking to see if anyone else disliked the casting
Somehow she became the "official" fancast among the fandom editors (such as myself but I wouldn't have casted her either haha), I love Keira Knightley but I don't necessarily see her as Andromeda. But I think she has quite a few movies that fit into the Slytherin kind of aesthetic so from an editor's point of view she would be an obvious choice!
I think it would be good especially since she’s the sister who didn’t fit in
I think she also looks like she could be related to Katie McGrath, the fancast for younger Bellatrix, who would be excellent to play her imo. And in the book, Harry first thought Andromeda was Bellatrix because they look very similar but she had kinder, softer features. Which I think Keira does have when comparing her and Katie.
Edit: also I’m not saying Katie doesn’t have soft kind features either but damn she could so play Bellatrix just remembering her performance as Morgan le Fay
It’s sad because Ted, Tonks, and Bellatrix died. She may have been conflicted about her sister but I imagine she was devastated. Add the layer that Tonks didn’t like her given name for whatever reason. It would be a wild story to tell from her perspective. Having to raise Teddy and him spending an obscene amount of time with the Potters. I imagine she was extremely lonely in her later years.
I can't relate to the fact of seeing my family or friend on the other side of war but I doubt she was devastated at Bellatrix's death . Bellatrix killed her cousin , her daughter , her husband , probably tortured her too .I imagine Bellatrix to be one of the youngest to join Voldemort and their relationship would have broken right there .
thank you for giving her that she deserves more
I don't think there was enough of Tonks in the movies. Both mother and daughter were so cool and deserved a bigger role.
"When was Elizabeth Bennet tortured for hours?"
- Me seeing the thumbnail
Literally me too😅
She also raised Teddy for a couple of years Harry and Ginny got married after losing her husband, daughter and son in law.
Edit: thanks for everyone who clarified that he lived with Andromeda for his whole life and just visited the Potters' often.
she raised teddy, he lived with her his whole life, teddy just used to visit harry and ginny every week
Wait. Where in the books was this? I can’t remember
Its (thepart about teddy visiting james and ginny and their kids once a week)mentioned in chapter "9 (or smth) years later' in the deathly hallows

She is so beautiful 😍
"Here's the most underrated slytherin in all of Harry Potter"
"Omg if it's not Regulus Black I swear"
Bruh I had no idea that happened to her 🫡
You’re still right about Regulus though 👌
@@ddelarosa96nah, Regulus is not a good person. He is fine with most of the death eater stuff, it just crossed his line when they started torturing Kreacher (i.e. his pet). That's like saying a serial killer is a good human because he liked his pet and goes on a huge revenge arc for them. It helps the good cause, but there is no good motive
@@MrTrollo2as far as we know from the books, Regulus Black never killed anyone☝️ Even Sirius thinks that his brother chickened out of the Death Eaters when he found out what the kinds of things they were actually going to make him do, and that they hunted him down and killed him for defecting☝️
Regulus bought into the “pure-blood supremacy” because he was indoctrinated with it from day one, and thought that joining the Death Eaters would make his parents proud after they were so bitterly disappointed by their eldest son rejecting everything Slytherin and running away from home. He was basically still an entry-level sheep who hadn’t seen any of the horrific stuff yet, a 🤩fan of the Dark Lord’s high ideals and charisma when Voldy asked for the use of his House Elf, and didn’t find out until _after_ Kreacher came home, how vile the Dark Lord really was, which made him question all the pure-blood supremacy ideals he was raised with, and the kind of cult he’d actually joined☝️
Regulus loved his family, including Kreacher, and didn’t want to disappoint any of them, but also knew that he couldn’t live with his conscience and stay with the Death Eaters after discovering what the Dark Lord was really like, so he found perhaps the only way to get out honorably by doing his part to bring Voldy down and at the same time protecting his family by swearing Kreacher to secrecy about what he did😢
@@MrTrollo2John Wick be like.😅
One of the coolest characters in Harry Potter.
High praise wow.
Beautifully made video! The music, the story telling, the scenery. Thanks! ❤
One of the aspects of the "Harry Potter" series, which I find powerful, is the dark reality of the world. How it closes in, robbing the youthful innocence of the protagonists, and replacing it with the dark necessity of adult life. It's very analogous to the world in which we live today.
A series of Flukes . I shudder to imagine what would have happened if just something went wrong in the final year / 7th book . The war or the story itself would have been far darker .
So a Slytherin marries a Ravenclaw and has a Hufflepuff 🤔
a slytherin that marries a HUFFLEPUFF
I mean that could happen... Why not.
A Slytherin that marries a Ravenclaw and has a child that is in Hufflepuff who then goes on to marry a man who was a Gryffindor. Ain’t that something lol
Ted's house is unknown though.
@@CB-THE-OG Kinda takes “opposites attract” to a new level
Yess! Tonks is my FAVORITE Harry Potter character and Andromeda is awesome!
My favorite Harry did for Andromeda was giving her Sirius's inheritance to her and Edward. Since it was supposed to go to him and it was really nice for him to do Harry gave away his winnings in the Goblet fire to the Weasley family.
I've not read anything in the books that ever stated he gave his inheritance to andomida.
If andromeda is Keira knightley, she’s my favorite slytherin by far
She probably the most chill slytherin member
She's easily the top 10 best characters in HP
Raising kids in the wizarding world is a blessing. Your kids are in a safe place, they are fed and taught. Parents get time to do their work.
The real world has boarding schools too but with all sorts of abuse, it's scary experience.
I wonder sometimes if, after the Second Wizarding War, Andromeda and Narcissa finally met together, at least once. Andromeda lost a husband, daughter, son-in-law, and sister in the war, and she was left to raise her grandson. Narcissa, of course, lost the same sister, but otherwise her family was intact. I can imagine the meeting between the two surviving sisters. I wonder if Narcissa would take Draco with her to Andromeda's house.
I like to imagine that Lucius drank himself to an early death, and when he died Andromeda and Narcissa met for tea and cards once a month to boast over their grandchildren and share childhood memories ...
Sometimes I imagine that Narcissa was loyal to her family most of all and it broke her heart when the sister closest to her was disowned.
Bellatrix probably did her best to lord it over and scare her younger siblings.
@@dirgniflesuoh7950 Yeah, that's a good headcanon. There is a fanfilm where the three sisters are the MCs, and that's the idea they followed in their storytelling, Narcissa being heartbroken when it was revealed Andromeda was in love with Ted and therefore disowned.
@@dirgniflesuoh7950 if we accept the cursed child as cannon then Lucius retreats from public life in disgrace pardoned only because his wife and son defected and helped with winning the war. Draco then became the head of the family and laid down the law saying point blank that him and his wife were not going to raise Scorpio to believe in pure blood supremacy and they supported his friendship with Albus potter and that because of this family gatherings with grandpa Lucius were “tense”
@@asher8754 Yes, I have read it, and my thought was (even before I read it) that Lucius turned bitter and blamed his wife and son for the defeat of Voldemort, and if only his Dark Lord had won, he would have somehow got back in favour and his "rightful place" lording it over almost everybody ...
A bitter and spiteful grandfather who drank to much, not very grateful to Narcissa or Draco for saving him from lifetime in Azkaban. A man who wasn't graceful in gratitude, his family should be indebted to him.
@@dirgniflesuoh7950 eh.. while clearly the worst of the Malfoys I suspect by the end of DH after all the shit that went down at Malfoy manor he’d realized Tom riddle was insane and would kill him and his family the minute he won the war. That’s why he never tried to win back favor by turning in or killing his son and wife for their defections and instead chose to leave with them and not take part in the fight. Say what you will about that loathsome man he did love his family.
She was an amazing mother to Nymphadora. Except she named her NYMPHADORA.
Nymphadora tonks is definitely the coolest
Nympha tonks was such a crush back when the movie released
In my latest Fan Fiction draft, my character is the son of a Slytherin who fell in love with a Muggle-born Wizard.
“Thank you for coming to my Ted Tonks” makes no sense at all, but that’s what my brain does every time I hear his name…
Same here.
And he always capitalizes every letter in his first name: TED Tonks.
😂😂 I like it
I've read all of the Harry Potter books and I barely remember any of it 😭
I remember the saddest part was Sirius death, and how boring when the 3 of them were hiding, that's mostly it.
After completing the school she went on a journey with captain Jack sparrow and named herself Elizabeth swan
Narcissa and Belatrix's outcast sister. Was kinda bummed when I read the books and found out they didn't put her in the movie.
I want a whole tv show about all the characters before/after Harry’s time in Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin alike.
Like that really good Voldemort prequel made by the fans House of Gaunt🔥. The IP is popular enough, just about any spinoff about a known wizarding family would be good.
So basically the history of Hogwarts as shown during Fantastic Beasts?
@@hsd287 more like what students did at Hogwarts like Andromeda Tonks, Luna, the marauders and others. Or even new characters!
@@hsd287 As shown? You see Hogwarts twice in the entire trilogy and no one recognizable except Dumbledore.
Fantastic beasts 😂
THE FAN CAST IS SO GOOD
She's a total badass.
She also raised her grandson after her daughter died and was supportive of her marrying a werewolf and not making her go through the same stuff she went through for marrying ted
She also raised her grandson after losing all the rest of her family - husband, daughter, even son-in-law - and she was still so supportive of Teddy when Harry was too young to take care of him.
She also lost her sister Bellatrix in the battle of Hogwarts because Molly killed her. I mean Bellatrix killed Sirius, Dobby and wanted to kill Ginny so I can understand why Molly did that but also I can’t understand because Bella might be a terrible person but even she didn’t deserve to die. No one deserves to die. Even if they did really really bad things.
Ignore the last part pls
@@Stayville_Clown I agree that Noone deserves to die, but at the same time, a person can be so far gone that even if you attempted, and were successful in detaining them, their hatred of you and everything you hold dear can wind up inevitably causing a death somewhere down the line, Bellatrix was so psychopathic that she would have found a way to escape Azkaban and immediately went for Molly and the weasleys for detaining her, or Harry and ginny because of Harry killing voldemort
@@viper2003923 Agreed . Sometimes it's even worse to allow someone to live rather than killing them because they are just too dangerous . The reality is that some people are so far passed the point of no return that they will never change or be rehabilitated and it's a foolish death wish to think you can, Bellatrix was just such a person. Bellatrix gave Molly no choice but to kill her because she openly threatened the rest of Molly's family and there was no doubt she would indeed have happily made good on that threat if given even the slightest chance.
Andy and Regulus are both extremely underrated
Okay we need a tv show about these 3 sisters because imagine how cool that would be!!!
Don’t forget she look after and cared for Teddy when his parents died!
Edit: looks like I wasn’t the only one who picked up on this- 😅🥲👍
Simewhere on that list HAS to be the bloody baron,his story is a sad one but shows him as more than the scary slytherin ghost that can get peeves to behave himself
Ok because replies seem to think im calling him good
Interesting/underrated≠good
Uf a character is barely mentioned and is not really 'nice' or 'good' but you still remember their story and would watch a spin-off series then theyre underrated and intersting
i dont think we get to know his story in books?
You mean the guy who KILLED Helena Ravenclaw because she had the NERVE to not want to be with him?! Why do you think he has blood on him as a ghost and wears chains? Why do you think the Grey Lady is so sad? Why do you think he's CALLED the Bloody Baron????!!!
@@bharatdhurua953 When Helena Ravenclaw left Hogwarts with her mother's Diadem, she went to Albania and hid in a forest there. Rowena sent the Baron to bring her back. He found her but when she refused, jealous of her freedom and p@#sed off that she refused him, the Baron flew into a rage and killed her by stabbing her-hence the blood. After he had recovered and realised what he did, the Baron was "filled with guilt and remorse" and committed suicide, stabbing himself with the same blade.
@@fireidar i never said he was good nor that he was right,i simply said hes underrated and has a sad story,people dont tak about him (or any of the ghosts besides nick and myrtle) nearly enough im not defending him i just think hes an interesting character that neinther fans nor JK herself talk about much similar to Krum who is used to make ron jelous and then mostly forgotten
@@fireidar but then he decided to kill himself or something? but he k ows what he did and thats why he has chains (i think this might've been a pottermore or video on but not this channel but another yt channel
Holy- andromeda tonks is A FREAKING BEAUTY. Harry potter lowkey has the most demure pretty ladies geeeeeeze
I'm sure with the name like nymphadora she was great fun to be around
Was that Kiera Knightly? If So she would be awesome!
No she is younger than Natalia by few months
Y’all forgot to mention that after tonks and lupin died in the battle of hogwarts she raised their son Teddy
who was last mentioned flirting wiht the daughter Ron and ginny's non wizard cousin wich the family was thrilled buy cause it would make him even more a member of the family
@@WardNightstone No, he was openly kissing Bill and Fleur's witch/ part Veela daughter Victoire, thus a first Weasley cousin to the Potter children. The Potter family was delighted because it would bring Teddy directly into their Weasley ( Ginny's ) side of the family if he married her. This actually proves the one happy Weasley family theory that all of the good guys will become family through the Weasley's.
guys blaise deserves some recognition lol but like Andromeda Tonks is amazinggggg literally one of the most underrated slytherinnn
“Ain’t nobody bendin me over 😤” lemme stoppppp 😭😭😭😭
She later became a doctor and worked for the best Diagnostician in the medical world.
I think you are confusing Kiera Knightly with Olivia Wilde. 🙃
The three Black sisters were cousins to Sirius Black. Bellatrix married into the Lestranges (Rodolphus), Narcissa married into the Malfoys (Lucius), and Andromeda married into the Tonkses (Ted). So Nymphadora AND Draco were cousins to Sirius by extension, as well as Harry’s godson Teddy.
It is said in the books, when Voldemort teases the Malfoys about Tonks marrying a werewolf and being able to have werewolf children.
@@erys8957 So when you think about how both Hermione and Harry married into the Weasleys (making them sister and brother in law), the major characters are all related. Except for pretty much the Hogwarts staff, only a few outliers are unconnected by marriage or blood.
Cousins to Sirius? Sirius would be their uncle
@@marggiepv Sirius is the cousin of Bellatrix, Narcissa and Andromeda. So Tonks and Draco are his nephews, she just got confused.
@@TheBrandiElizabeth Well the purebloods all married each other, Sirius' parents were even first cousins I think. So yes, most of them are probably related.
Andromeda was ousted by her family because she married for love, raised Tonks to be an auror, gave Harry temporary residence, tolerated torture from death eaters, lost her husband, daughter, and son-in-law, and raised her grandson.
THIS WOMAN NEEDS A STANDALONE BOOK ❤
While I do agree, I think it's for the better if we don't get any more Harry Potter books. Otherwise, I have a feeling that the next one might be a Voldemord fanfic.
Apparently she looked so similar to her sister Bellatrix that Harry nearly attacked her on sight in panic!
Would've loved to see Helena cameo her as a side part.
Ted is actually a Hufflepuff
Imagine getting tortured by your sibling 😂
Every younger sibling: *cricket noises*
Never knew I needed Keira Knightley as Andromeda and James McAvoy as Ted Tonks in my life and now I want this to be canon.
I thought Ted was in Hufflepuff?
Whoever made the set for these two characters really had an Atonement fan fic blog as well :p
I love her so much she is such a stan
she looks beautiful
Omgggg that reference to Atonement though-
Robert and Cecilia can finally be together-
If you know, you know
That's the first thing that came to my mind as soon as I saw Robbie and Cecilia together.
I love the fact that you chose Robbie and Cecilia from Atonement.
Andromeda is a very interesting character. I would have loved if she was mentioned more in the books
:(
Also, rip my friend Tonks.;(
Yes! And she looked after Teddy, imo she's the best Slytherin
