Hermione was naturally distrustful of Half-Blood Prince because she was not sure if his intentions – when he was writing the notes in the book – had been good. And – let´s face it – she was also jealous that somebody else has outshone her academic brilliance.

Harry has depth. He was abused as a child, lost his parents to a terrible person and found out at a young age that he was a wizard. Year after year he had to save himself and others from dying. He sacrificed his love life, a normal childhood being with his friends including HIMSELF in order to protect the entire world.

Harry isn’t a Horcrux. He didn’t die from the basilisk because it would still take a moment for the venom to reach his heart, and the horcrux was in his soul. The venom never reached there because of the phoenix tear which also healed his arm which was probably mostly destroyed by then.

At the end of the second film, Harry Potter gets bitten by the Basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets, before being healed by Fawkes’s tears.

You can think of it as Harry being called The Chosen One because Voldemort basically chose to get rid of him, not Neville. Voldemort decided to kill Harry because he was a half-blood like himself while Neville is a pureblood. J.K. Rowling confirmed that this was the main reason he went after Harry to begin with.

In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, it is understandable why Hermione has a crush on Gilderoy Lockhart: he was handsome, she was a little girl, so she had a fan-girl crush on him, like normal girls to music/movie stars of her age. Mungo in 5th book, she was breathless, when she saw Lockhart again.

Hermione Jean Granger never got detention. When she got down to the potion’s lab, Snape was sitting in front of his desk, checking some journals.

The trio of Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger consists of all three types of Wizards. Harry being half-blood, Ron being Pure-blood, and Hermione being Muggle-born.

The children of Harry and Ginny Potter are considered half-bloods because although Ginny is pure-blood, Harry’s mother is Muggle-born. The term was used as an insult from members of fanatical pure-blood families….Half-bloods.

Albus Potter isn’t a bad kid, but Hogwarts doesn’t have what he needs. Still, he has to be Sorted, so he goes to Slytherin. Albus ended up in Slytherin because he couldn’t stop thinking about ending up in Slytherin, and so the Sorting Hat couldn’t grasp anything other than his thoughts about being in Slytherin.

↑ FAQ at J. K. Rowling’s official site (Archived) – For an individual to be pure-blood, the witch or wizard should at least have no Muggle or Muggle-born parents or grandparents. Therefore, the children of Harry and Ginny Weasley are also half-blood as Muggle-born Lily is their grandmother.

Remus was called Moony because he turned into wolf on every full moon. Luna is another word for Moon or Moony. This way Harry named his daughter after Remus Lupin. So he named his daughter ‘Luna’ meaning moony.
