Things that don‘t make sense: 1.Delphini Diggory 2.Cursed Child

Voldemort having sex just doesn’t sound right. It just doesn’t.

I can explain. She was not born from Voldemort and Bella. She was born from greed and plotholes.

It’s kind of hilarious that during all this stuff going on in the movie, Voldemort was like “Hold up, I need to go lay some pipe on Bellatrix right quick. OK now back to the murder.” 😂😂

Silver hair and blue tips while your mom has BLACK hair and your father is BALD? *Fanfiction has joined the chat*

Wanna know why she was obsessed with her dad? She inherited that from her mom

Voldemort having a daughter was one of the dumbest things ever. I always believed Voldemort to be "above" carnal pleasures. His quest for eternal life meant that he wouldn't even need heirs. Voldemort wouldn't do anything if it didn't serve a purpose and I believe he would have no reason to copulate.

Could have been better if Delphi wasn't actually V's daughter, but just thought she was. You could imply Bellatrix deluded herself into thinking this as well, or perhaps did some weird Dark magic shit in order to validate this delusion. Alternatively, Delphi could just be lonely and ostracized (pretty likely I think) and become obsessed with the idea that her mother, being by most accounts the most loyal and trusted Death Eater, had her with Voldemort. It wouldn't be perfect but better than this, not to mention it would give you another twist to throw in, as everyone would initially believe her version of the story.

Cursed child can't be a fanfic, cause a fanfic would've actually followed the laws of the potterverse

Delphi: 'I only wanted to meet MY father' Bellatrix:' Seriously? I also killed and tortured people!'

My biggest issue with the Cursed Child was that it retconned how time travel works in the HP universe. Rowlings treatment of time travel was genius, it didn't create paradoxes and no alternate time-lines. You couldn't change the future, you simply caused the past that had already happend and you were always the reason the past was what it was. It was clean and logically consistent. This play threw all of that out the window for a much more inferior interpretation.

My least favourite thing about the cursed child is how they ruined time turners. Before it was shown to be a loop. The time travel would lead into what happened not change what happened. Then the cursed child comes along and said “what if it was just back to the future?” Such an interesting (and my personal favourite) take on time travel ruined.

Nobody: Bellatrix walking down the street: oo yum voldys lookin extra bald today-

I feel like this character was wasted. Voldemorts daughter as a character had a lot of potential as a character. Imagine voldemorts daughter trying to fit in with the wizarding world trying to escape her parents shadow. That sounds like a great storyline

If every Hufflepuff that lost a contest became a Death Eater, Voldemort would've won.

*Delphi Diggory exists* Potterheads: She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named

I'll explain Delphi's life to you very easily: she doesn't exist. The end.

I can’t imagine Voldemort having a child with someone, like the only thing he cares about was killing Harry and being immortal. Nagini is the only one who was really closed to him, he never cared for anyone.

One of my friends got me "Harry Potter and The Cursed Child" when I was a kid. I was really confused because it was written as a play rather than as a real book. But I did read it, and it was very much like one of those very bad, way too confusing and over-the-top fanfics I still regret reading. But I also read it before I read "The Half-blood Prince". Bad move? Yes.

It would've been interesting to see what would've happened if they met, personally I think he'd just pretend to believe her story and then kill her for wasting his time. Voldemort was always self-confident to a fault and I really think he'd assume she's some wannabe sycophant trying to curry favor with the Dark Lord. In no reality would Voldemort hear he was bested by some halfblood spell cast on a baby being his downfall, if anything the second she mentioned horrcruxs would be the second he'd decide to kill her.

*Jk Rowling approved this because she was on Imperius Curse*

Cedric: *slight humiliation* Cedric: *immediately becomes evil* 🤪🙄

The way that I know this story couldn't have happened is because time turners can't be used to go back more than hours and days. It's stated multiple times that going back too far is dangerous. I remember a story about a wizard accidentally going back too far. When they came back, time rebounded, and they aged hundreds of years in an instant and died.

It would have been interesting to hear about Voldys motivation to have a child. It could be that on his way to immortality (and a new nose) he wanted a boy and use the baby to get a new body for himself. It would have broken Delphi to know her father didn't want her at all. She would have been just a tool to him and it might have brought her back to the good side or start her redemtion arc.

The last digit of your like is your Hogwarts house 1. Gryffindor 2. Ravenclaw 3. Hufflepuff 4. Slytherin 5. Gryffindor 6. Ravenclaw 7. Hufflepuff 8. Slytherin 9. Gryffindor 0. Ravenclaw Who did you get? (I got Gryffindor)

Also, how did no one see Bellatrix pregnant? 😑

Every Star Wars fanfiction feels more canon than this

It’s crazy how batshit insane the time turner plot is because the concept was done so damn well in prisoner of azkaban, and having them destroyed in order of the phoenix was the best way they could’ve prevented any future bullshit But then someone decided they wanted to ruin that whole idea with their fanfic

The cursed child is like a really bad fanfiction..

Silver hair with blue tips, super insanely beautiful, and a cool tattoo. This is the most fan-fiction deviant art character I've ever heard.

I think this could be accepted as conon if it made some edit changes to the story. One example would be for vold to create his daughter by using magic other then quote normal process.

This is the second one of your videos I have watched and I am impressed. Your knowledge of the characters is amazing. I have not read the cursed child and am not very familiar with the story. Now I don't need to read it. Well done!

If Albus killed his Father. ALBUS would have disappeared.

This is CEDRIC were talking about. If he lost he would be NOTHING but a good sport.

Been watching some of your videos wow. Love them all especially this one found out things I didnt know thank.

I don't comment much anywhere, but I had to comment for this video. Awesome. This was great. Thank you!

My mom is Harry's age. So I used that and math to figure out when Albus did what he stupidly did. According to my calculations this all happened in 2019. This means that 2020 is the aftermath of the time travel. Butterfly effect though. So yeah, a reason for 2020's madness.

Hmm? Edgy check Has unnatural hair color check Born from unexpected people check Has bad mother and father check Lonely and special snowflake check Yep it is a fanfic character

This was fantastic! So well explained!

Amazing video bro, thanks bunches

Silvery hair with blue tips... Cursed Child just had a little too much fanfiction

Bellatrix: There is no higher pleasure than having you in our family home Voldemort: Allow me to prove you wrong

Fun fact: Voldemort was inspired by his daughter’s name in Albania, as when he escaped during his downfall and was barely alive, since Delphini, also “delfin” in albanian, is the word for dolphin, one of the most intelligent creatures on earth. Albanians VERY rarely saw dolphins and they were amased by those creatures, shouting their names out loud, whenever they would see one.

Bellatrix: there is no higher pleasure than having you in our family home Voldemort: let see about that

More interesting story: Voldemort’s child is actually a nice person who keeps a snake sanctuary and will do your hair tips if you ask nicely.

Ah, so Draco wasn’t bad after all. He was just like Snape.

this was really great! thank you

wow love this video was so informative an told me many things I didn't know ty

“And THEN Voldemort was Harry!” this is honestly the part that made me understand why people hate the cursed child

Time turners can only go back 5 hours in time, and were all destroyed in the fight in the department of mysteries. THAT'S canon

I kinda feel sorry for Delphi.She never got to meet her family and even if her father was alive at that time, I’m sure he would always be disappointed in her

For the people who hadn’t read or watch cursed child and you don’t understand explain complicated parts. So how did the others ( Hermione, Harry, Draco….) have the time-Turner when Delphi have it? It is because they have a spare one. How did Harry Potter pretend to be voldemort? It is because he drank Polyjuice Potion.

The cursed child literally sound like a fanfiction written by some 12 year old Ps: Not insulting people who write fanfictions.

“She read books about her father” My mind: she read Harry Potter! Also my mind: facepalming itself really hard

The sentence, "Voldemort clapped cheeks" is canonically accurate now. Thanks. I didn't need that.

You rock, Morgan!!!

Voldemort had sex. All I needed to know

The cursed child sounds like an essay I wrote at 3 am

I swear, before the last book came out there was a great fanfic I read that was the writer's version of the last book. And it starred voldemort's and bellatrix's daughter, Delphi. She was cool and looked badass like this Delphi. What happened here? Did two people have the exact same idea? Did Rowling steal the concept of a random fanfic? This is crazy.

It's nice to hear that Harry and Malfoys son's became best friends, unlike their fathers.

This isn’t canon, you can’t just go back and make up random events that make no sense in the original story. There was no time for Bellatrix to be pregnant and give birth and then go fight in a war.

The only thing I liked on the cursed child was Albus on Slytherin and his friendship with Scorpius + Hermione as ministry of Magic. The rest I ignore.

I feel like the Cursed Child destroyed several basis of the whole Harry Potter series. Like, *First* : Voldemort and Bellatrix. She was his most loyal sidekick, true, she loved him, but we all know how Voldy was so obsessed over getting immortality and killing HP that he just wouldn't care about anyone else, even her. Moreover, I don't think he planned on having an heir, since he wanted to be immortal. And turning the fanatical love of Bella into some lusty passion isn't like her (even less in the middle of the events going on during the Battle of Hogwarts😂...) I think it would have been better (and more interresting) if Delphi THOUGHT she was Voldy's child. Trying to find explanations of her physique, skills and loneliness in Voldemort's story. Or even if Bella tried to make her believe so. *Second* : Cedric Diggory is a Hufflepuf man, do you think he would turn out super-evil by just loosing a game ? Not that all Hufflepufs are sweetypies, but he helped Harry with the Golden Egg. I think he would just have congratulated the winner and get over it, not become a Death Eater. *Third* : the time traveler is really *really* the Swiss Knife in this story. In the books, we're told we can see what happened but can't or shouldn't change it. Here, it's used so frequently it feels like a "Game over, try again" plot. It makes it loose all his power. Plus, it is supposed to bring you back days earlier, not years or decades, for it's dangerous. *Fourth* : how did everyone ( Draco, Hermione, Ron, Ginny etc..) knew when to go back in time ? Like, two minutes earlier, Delphi was in 1990's, then in 1981. How did they get it right straight ?! 😅 Then, the fact Harry disguised himself as Voldemort in the church, probably by drinking Polynectar Juice. This potion must contain something from Voldy's body, hair, nails (yuk!), anything. But he was dead. Decades ago. He litterally vanished in ashes. And NO, I don't want to think about something disguting like going into his tomb to get their stuff 😂. Anyway, I think the Cursed Child had potential, but it was totally ruined by its incoherence (and I haven't even talked about Delphi's look....). And the fact that JK Rowling recognized it as a cannon broke my heart. PS: Sorry for the several mistakes, I'm French sooooo 😅 be kind with me

You told a great story 😊 you made me have vibes for the book i never read 😊

Nobody: J K Rowling: Voldemort's nose is actually a power socket

im sorry but narcissa would have raised her, isnt it literally a rule for orphaned children to be sent to live with blood relatives in the wizarding world?

How was delphi so powerful if she never went to wizard school?

I agree with what you said at the beginning. THE CURSED CHILD IS PAIN FULL TO READ !!! They ruined a perfectly good story 😪

Delphi sounds like an OC from a fan fiction. 'This is my OC, Delphi! She is Voldemort's daughter, and is super powerful! She can do everything Voldemort could, and is super edgy!'

Delphie: You Killed My Father!!! Harry: Your Father killed mine first and tried to kill me. My brain: You got roasted!!!

Voldemort having a kid isn't outside of the realm of possibility, given his ability to charm people and bellatrix's complete devotion to him i'm not surprised she would push for a closer relationship and i am not surprised that he might just participate to help solidify her devotion to him and his cause. A child didnt necessarily have to be planned. Still the ending kind of sucks, as far as I can tell she had emotions which voldemort lacked because she wasnt born with a love potion right? Was a good opportunity to see her actually start to like the people she was manipulating and realise there was more to life than just controlling others. Then after seeing the changed timeline she could have broken out of her fascination with her father and gone on a journey of self discovery. Honestly just seems like a repeat of voldemorts story where he felt alone and then hunted his father down :/

Ik i’m late to this and never even read this book but fr this story had a lot of potential that was just thrown out the window.

can we all just argree delphis birth makes no sense especially the time period and the events of the main books

What doesn’t make sense to me is that Voldemort’s whole thing is being immortal, he doesn’t need an heir. Also Delphi looks like a hot topic employee.

It's interesting how she keeps saying the future is yours to make when she's following the path that has been set down by the Oracle that told her future so she's really not making her own future she's following the blueprints that were put out for her

I never got to reading the books but damn this one sounds sick. Definitely going to pick this one up

Should have name that book “the cursed fanfic”

this literally sounds like me scripting myself into my harry potter desired reality so that i’m an important character

Despite everything wrong with this Book, your delivery of delphi's life made it super interessting Great Work

The title should be the life of Delphi Riddle

The fact that Voldemort had the ability, potency and urgency to reproduce is his most terrifying trait.

Basically Delphi wanted to do everything every true fan girl wanted to do Save Cedric

Well thanks for this video always wondered what went on here and yeah this is for the best not to be considered canon. Let alone how ridiculously long would it actually take to turn a time turner the right amount of times to go back over a decade.

this is very convoluted. LOL just looking at the title , I don't get how Voldie can have a daughter. And one that seemingly is related to Cedric Diggory, at that! Now I know about all of it! :) still a little confused! I do know that I now want to read the Cursed Child! :-D LOL

I’m pretty sure if Voldemort live longer and see his own daughter growing 😭😓 He would really make her as a horcrux😂😅

I haven’t read the book but it sounds like Albus was a pretty stupid son.

Havent watched the full vid yet, havent red cursed child but I wanna know. Why is delphi called Diggory and not Riddle/Le strange/ both of them? Sorry if the answer is in this video, I havent watched it fully yet but im just asking incase he doesnt say it in this vid

I haven’t read the cursed child but I did see it in thetre LIVE! It was amazing (not telling anything except that it was the best thing in the world and you check it out!)

ONCE extremely handsome father Had me laughing so hard😂😂

holdddd up. You’re telling me. Cedric was humiliated for not winning the tournament so decided to become a death eater. Yet he was so kind and loyal in the original series Yeah. Nah... Harry Potter ended at Deathly Hallows

This is literally the most I've ever known about that story. It sounds fun, but there are so many reasons I don't want it to be cannon, fun or not

While I've never read the book OR seen the play, after this video about Delphi the ......"concept" of the "cursed child" sounds interesting & with proper writing COULD have been good(sadly not though, who knows mabey they or someone else fixes it.....somehow)

that's like a bad attempt on making a deep and edgy character

Things I forgot existed 1. The Cursed Child

Honestly this story is all over the place. Like in the prior movies too Voldemort and Bellatrix being killed Bellatrix isnt preg at all and were did Delphi get her hair colour from. you would swear she's a Malfoy with that hair saying both her Mum and Dad have dark hair and isnt there only 1 time turner. How did Harry Hermione Ron Draco and Ginny all get there if the time turner was destroyed. Or is there more than one time turner correct me if im wrong but i thought there was only 1. And Cedric would never and i mean never become a death eater bc hes Humiliated like come on. And when it said Scorpius set time back to normal with the help of Snape Ron and Hermione. So now snape didnt die either and Harry's dead but Albus is still alive!?!?!? Albus wouldnt be alive if Harry died bc if his dad dies then he cant even be born unless Ginny was to fall Preg before Harry died.... J. K. Rowling Im Sorry but this is stupid... I mean your first few books were amazing but this seems like fan fic u know? Ik Jack Thorne, and John Tiffany were apart of righting it but its like u didnt even read it over.... I want more Harry Potter Movies but this kinda Just leaves it there You know? Like once this movie finishes thats it no more bc u can't exactly continue the story from this. I wish u had thought about this more Rowling....

Ok so I just watch this video and I stared reading the comments and I feel like I have to say this: Voldemort having sex with Bellatrix could have been a ploy to keep the Slytherin bloodline alive. I mean with everything we know about Voldemort, he chose Bellatrix to bear his child because of her extreme loyalty and he can ensure that his blood/the blood of slytherin lives on. He could have also used the child as a vessel in case he died again. I don’t think that’s possible in the Harry Potter universe but hey it could be. And also Voldemort probably didn’t have actual sex with Bellatrix, he probably did the turkey Baster method but like…the wizard way…JUST A THEORY

It’s said that Bellatrix was very pretty before going mad in Azkaban, so she doesn’t only have those Riddle genes.

Call me crazy but I just can't see voldemort having sex. Im not putting it past Bellatrix to do it since she's just that loyal to him. But I just can't picture it. like sex just seems so beneath voldemort and I don't see him wanting an air when he wanted to rule all by himself forever. picturing voldemort and Bellatrix having sex is honestly just gross lol.

A few months ago my family an I went to see the play! It was the best experience ever!!
