The Magic Will Never End. ϟ

Forty minutes ago, I saw myself reaching the handrails of the theater, pushing myself out back to the world. For two and a half hours, I let myself enter the world of the wizards and witches. Braising myself for the greatest battle I would ever witness in the next hour. I let myself lost in the oblivion of the Wizarding World, entering for the last time the courtyard of Hogwarts, seeing the familiar faces that bear the logos of the four houses I came to know first when the sorting hat were put into the students' heads for them to be sorted into those four famed house, the weary look of the professors as they prepared to defend the castle from Voldemort and his Death Eaters, the sight of the changed Neville Longbottom trying to lead the students of Hogwarts and is now a far cry from that boy who lost his toad in the Hogwarts Express, worriedly looking for "Trevor", the unassuming look of Luna's face whom I always loved because of her eccentric character (I loved it when she spoke to Harry: "Harry Potter, you listen to me!"), and who would have thought that the young lady whom we first saw as a little girl holding the hands of her mother pointing at Harry Potter on that train station will be our chosen one's better half in the future. People would say Harry Potter is about the trio of Harry, Ron and Hermione but I beg to disagree cause without them, I mean the professors, the Hogwarts students mainly Neville, Luna, and Ginny, Harry Potter will never be the same. I would admit that during the first films, I didn't appreciate them but thanks to Jo Rowlings impressive imagination, she made everyone important, without any of those characters, the effect would not as dramatic as it is.
As I watched the movie in my balcony seat while putting my hand to secure my 3D glasses won't slide in my face, I had this weird feeling like I was part of the movie. No, it's not about the 3D effect where everything seems to be real, but its more of like being in the movie that I first watched back when I was still 11 years old. It's like all the scenes, the events, all the things that happened in those span of 10 years, after 8 movies and 7 books, it came flashing in my mind. I can't help but reminisce the look at Harry's face the moment Hagrid revealed that he is a wizard and the transformation of that boy to a young brave man who is willing to sacrifice himself for the sake of his friends and those who believed in him. I almost cried when he saw his parents, Lupin and his godfather, Sirius Black after he "died". I can't really remembered the lines cause it felt like everything around me was a blur, but amazingly my heart understand their dialogues that I felt really overwhelmed.
The trio was at their best act ever. I can feel their sense of urgency to destroy those horcruxes and defeat Voldemort once and for all. Well, now there's a twist with Ron and Hermione's blossoming relationship and Harry is as brave and determined as ever to put an end and face Voldemort's in the greatest battle ever in the history of the Wizarding world. The final duel of Harry and Voldemort can only be described in one word. It is just EPIC. It is the greatest way to show the millions of fans who waited this eventful battle to finally happen in the silver screen. I'm just lucky to have lived in this modern world where I can still watch the movies I love after the first time. Right now, I'm simply speechless. Whatever I wrote in here where just a narrative of what I feel. Ron developed from a mere sidekick into a character who complement Harry Potter and an incredible support for Harry. Just imagined Harry without Ron and Hermione. Again, it wouldn't be the same. Hermione on the other hand was as brilliant as she is but in this movie, she also showed her emotional side that we don't usually see in this bright young witch. The intelligence of Hermione and Ron's cleverness complements Harry's bravery.

I can't believed I just finished watching the last Harry Potter movie. I watched as the movie credits were shown on the screen, feeling lost and confused. In a second,  thought its the end. But as all the  Harry Potter fans says, the Magic will never end. And I can't help but agree. Yes, the movies had just ended but Harry Potter, Hermione, Granger, Ron Weasley and all the HP characters that touched our life will forever be on our hearts. I can imagine my heart now has a tattoo of lightning imprinted on its core. Jo Rowling was right, I could always come back home to Hogwarts to relieve the past, to live the present and to fulfill the hope of the future. As I pushed the door of the theater, I seems like it's the boundary between my world and the Harry Potter world. But I could always come back home, to Hogwarts, and to all my beloved characters. The Magic Will Never End. ϟ
