What is equivalent of midi-chlorians in Harry Potter universe?

You just have to be born a wizard/witch, remember that voldemort was once a little shit named Tom riddle.

Yeah, but is wizard level power genetic?

Why voldemort, dumbledore and grinsomething were powerful as fuck while some were just avg?

You study harder. That is why Hermione is the best of the three in most situations. Although for wizard battles, you also need bravery and keeping calm and all that shit.

I attributed Dumbledore's strength to book learning and old age, given his sage-like wisdom, and if he weren't knowledgeable I bet someone else would have the headmaster position. Voldemort is powerful in his own right as well, but only because he specializes in dark arts. You don't see him casting illusion spells because it's not his thing. Then there's hermione who is a mudblood, yet her intellect allows her to surpass her purebred peers.
That's why there's a school in the first place, and it's why they don't expel that one kid who blows his own shit all the time.

anyone else disappointed in the way they showed Harry's power throughout the series. He only had one moment of strength(patronus) and that's it. Hermoine seemed way more skilled

The amount of dullness one shows. Quote ironic for the dullest franchises in the history of movie franchises no? Seriously each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody?just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>a-at least the books were good though
"No!"
The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."

I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

>harry defeated death eaters and even voldemort himself with fucking expelliarmus

JK was always just a retard who got lucky.
The fact that she's a billionaire is embarrassing.

Why have wizards shown zero interest in researching the magic necessary to upgrade all muggles to wizardkin? Then there wouldn't be any need to hide, there wouldn't be a reason for the wizard KKK to exist, and everyone would be able to use magic and it would be beautiful.

When you said "what's lithe equivalent of midichlorians in Harry Potter" I immediately thought of Horcruxes. Except that stupidity stuck around
