Ron - Why does everyone hate him?

Recommended Posts

Why does everybody hate Ron from Harry Potter? It got so bad, the Ron The Death Eater trope was created. But why?

I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was akin to a slow death.

I think people started disliking him around 4th book and 7th book because he showed that he was jealous of harry and a real friend wouldn't be jealous of their friends especially for being the chosen one (don't forget to be the chosen one you needed to give up your family and possibly life) half the 7th book ron was missing after he and harry had a fight so I think that's why a lot of people don't like him because he's supposed to be the supportive friend that turned out to be not so supportive

I honestly don't hate him, or know why. I think people may not like him since he isn't as prominant as a character as Harry or Hermione. Harry is the "chosen on" and Hermione is talented at matic, and Ron is just Ron. While he still plays an important part in the series he can be overshadowed by the other characters. I still like Ron and think he is important in the series though.

I don't hate him either. Harry has the whole "Chosen One" thing, and Hermione is better than Harry in pretty much every way, but Ron is still useful. Perhaps if he showed off his Chessmaster qualities more often, to aid and ally the heroes, or planned the battle tactics for Dumbledore's Army, then maybe he'd be more liked?

People hate Ron? Huh.

 

The only reason that I can guess is because he's nearly always overshadowed by Harry (the series' protagonist) and Hermione, who is much more talented. Also, Ron doesn't exactly have as much of an impact on the storyline as them, given that he's almost like a secondary character in terms of overall importance.

 

(I haven't read any Harry Potter books since I finished it for the second time in the fifth grade, so I may be forgetting something. :P)

I absolutely love Ron Weasley. Who could hate that guy?

Yeah, he's not Harry Potter, but so what? If it was the Harry Potter show 24/7 the story wouldn't be anywhere near as fun or interesting. Ron, Hermione, Hagrid, Luna Lovegood, Neville, and other characters are just as important to creating the Harry Potter universe we know and love as Harry himself. 

 

I've read the entire series and seen all of the movies, many of them 3 or 4 times and I love Ron just as much as everyone else.
