- Ron may have sometimes been quick to jealousy, insecurity and anger – but he was also loyal, smart, brave and funny. He cared deeply for those close to him, and would stick up for his friends and family. That’s why Ron is our Chosen One. His heroism wasn’t thrust upon him. He had to fight – sometimes against himself – to do the right thing.

Without Ron, Hermione would be a secluded book-worm without any friends, spending all her time with her nose in the books, and not truly experiencing life to its fullest. He is the guy that keeps them happy and bound to earth. Also, I seriously think he gets a bad rep.

The Weasleys may be an old wizarding family, but Ron grew up poor. He always had hand-me-down clothes (and wands, and rats), and he was always struggling to hide his jealousy of Harry's wealth. But even though he complained about maroon sweaters and used dress-robes, Ron appreciated what he had. He loved Scabbers, even though he was old and useless...
Well... yeah. All the Gryffindor kids are brave. Even Neville is brave. But Ron doesn't just go charging into danger alongside his friends, he faces some of his personal fears.The poor kid has arachnophobia (thanks to Fred and George messing with him as a toddler... I love Fred and George, but I sure wouldn't want them for older brothers). And he s...
Don't let Movie Ron fool you. Book Ron always sticks up for his friends, especially Hermione. He talks back to Snape when Snape is being nasty to her, and he tries to curse Malfoy when Malfoy calls Hermione a mudblood. So what if the curse backfires and Ron makes himself vomit slugs instead? He's tryingto do the right thing. He does let his feeling...
Perhaps the most interesting aspect of Ron's character is that he's... kind of a bigot. At least at first. He, unlike Harry and Hermione, was raised by a magical family. This means he's great at filling in any exposition about the wizarding world that Hermione can't find in book. But it also means that he grew up with certain prejudices against wer...
Is Ron secretly really great at Divination? OK, probably not, but he does make several off-hand remarks that come true. In the second book, he muses that Tom Riddle might have killed Moaning Myrtle (he did). In the third book, he wonders if the large black dog Harry keeps seeing has anything to do with Sirius Black (it does). In the seventh book, h...
Ron often functions as the comic relief, and boy do we need his jokes. Look, I love Harry and Hermione, and both of them have the occasional zinger, but the Ron is funny friend. And his jokes are rarely mean-spirited. He's making jokes to make his friends happy, or to remind everyone to lighten up when things look bleak. Does he use humor as a defe...
Ron makes a lot of mistakes. Like... Lavender. Or being a jerk to Harry about the Goblet of Fire. Or being a jerk to Hermione about Krum. Or being a jerk to Ginny about Dean. You get the point. And sometimes it takes him a looooong time to apologize, but he gets there eventually. He seems to be more insecure and sensitive than Harry or Hermione, an...
Ron's flaws, along with his loyalty and his humor, are what make him such a great character. We can relate to him. In the seventh book, he leaves his friends because he doesn't think he's good enough. That's always been Ron's problem, and the route of his jealousy: he has low self-esteem. Harry's rich and "the chosen one," Hermione's a genius and w...

Aug 14, 2020 · Ron Weasley is Harry Potter's best friend, and while some of his traits make him a great wizard, others are not as desirable.
- Severus Snape. Actor: Alan Rickman. “Always”…The word that comes to mind when remembering the cold and mysterious Potions professor. We were almost certain Severus Snape worked for the bad guys, considering he emotionally bullied Harry for years.
- Neville Longbottom. Actor: Matthew Lewis. Not everyone will agree with this one, mostly because Neville Longbottom is a secondary character and serves as comic relief for much of the series.
- Lord Voldemort. Actor: Ralph Fiennes. Ironically, He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named is mentioned more than he appears on screen, yet he is our third-favorite Harry Potter character.
- Hermione Granger. Actress: Emma Watson. Ranked as the fourth top Harry Potter character is Hermione Granger. The one who stands by Harry the most; the Muggle-born who is unashamed of who she is; the smart young witch and cleverest in Hogwarts…
- He’s a Weasley. Let’s start with something simple. Ron didn’t come from a rich family. Nor did he have prophecy backing him up. He was a Weasley. And the Weasleys were poor.
- The most relatable character. Harry Potter was seen as the chosen one. And Hermione Granger was marveled as the clever one. So where does that leave Ron Weasley?
- Always stands up for his friends. The story carried an important message about friendship. And it told us how powerful connecting with people could be.
- Faced his fear of spiders. Ron Weasley might be a wizard. But that doesn’t mean he wasn’t afraid of anything. And like a lot of people who can’t stand the creepy crawlies…
