I am sure lot of you won't agree with me but anyway this is my opinion. This riot going on that HP is better than Twilight is beyond me. These books are riveting and thrilling in their own way.
First Twilight, yes I too realise it has too much of love and unrealistic charecteristics in people. However you have to say it is great piece of imagination. We have to understand that HP plot is far bigger than that of Twilight. It is a plot where the survival of the world depends on one character whereas in Twilight it is just the fate of two star crossed lovers and the obstacles faced by them. HP plot is far more enthralling than that of T.
The events in HP are wrtitten in a exemplary way. In Twilight they just seem to drag. However when it comes to the interactions and situations explained by Bella it does in a way relate to our thought process.
In HP the characters grow in the books which makes you feel like you knoe them but in T no such thing exists but you must say the human characters can reflect reality in a different level. The vampire and the wizards, from small days we were taught that they don't exist. In T there is a element of darkness weaved into the love which on a subconcious level we might not like however this is no reson to hate it. It Stephenie Meyer's potrayal of vampires as it differs from others. Like wizards are admiring J.K Rowlings potrayal of wizards.
The bottom line is that both books have their upsides and downsides. We are not critising the books but the author. This is their imaginations. Some think HP characters are better because that is how JKR wanted it and it differs to SM characters. Nobody thinks or imagines the same.
Another factor is that people have different preferences. Some may like supernatural and romance and others mystery, thrill and adventure. So it might not be the books at all but rather you don't agree with another person's preferences.

Logical reasons...
why Harry Potter v.s Twilight

*WARNING SPOILERS*

Hi! I'm Cinnominbubble and I have noticed the war between fandoms have been going on for a while with no clear outcome. There is a reason to this-We are stubborn. Twihards want to stick up for Stephanie Meyer, whilst Potterheads want to do the same for J. K. Rowling. But, I have noticed something. Many of our reasonings aren't exactly logical. I mean, not to be offensive, some of our strongest points are downright idiotic!(from both sides) I'd like to come up with some smarter points to help people see our side of the story, whatever...

Harry Potter beats Twilight. Of course. But I really don't like it when HP fans use opinion-ated "facts" when saying WHY Harry Potter is the better movie series. So, I, who am a major Potterhead, put together 7 true, solid, hard, and undeniable facts about certain aspects of the two movie series to prove why Harry Potter is the ultimate series.
**I will only be discussing the movies**

1) Soundtrack

Listen to this wonderful and memorable theme song. As you may have guessed, the theme song belogs to Harry Potter : link

Everyone knows Rowling and Meyer's stance on fanfiction and the fact both writers have given a thumbs up of sorts. However, there is something I don't think either one of them would of approve of and it involves those Reading the Books a lot of people are supposedly writing. I say supposedly writing because copying from another persons work is not writing unless you are quoting under fair use. And boy... every single Reading the Books I've come across is not in fair use and constitutes plagiarism. I know how to write one that doesn't constitute plagiarism, but I'll save that until the end.

As you can tell from my username, I am a huge Harry Potter fan. However, I wasn’t always. I used to be a Twihard (a twilight obsessed fan-girl). In fact I was one during the early stages of puberty, which is the age where most Twitards fall into the ‘romantic’ trap.

Here’s my story about how I went from ‘Twihard’ to ‘Indifferent’ to ‘Potterhead’:

I first read Twilight as a recommendation from a fellow member of the Teen Advisory Board of my library. I finished that book quickly and moved onto the next. The library didn’t have Eclipse so I read it ‘Twilight, New Moon, Breaking...

Believe it or not, I do not hate Twilight. The plot is fair, internesting setting, a lot of the characters are good, and not to mention the brilliant fight scenes! The soundtracks are lovely as well as the actors/actresses. Overall, I would give the entire series a C+. I would give it a higher grade if it wasn't for the poor writing, rambling, and somewhat extreme fans. But what's really the anchor of that sinking ship is the books' protagonist and narrator...


Bella Swan.

Of course there's a main character in almost every book I read that I really do not like. For example: in Hunger Games, it's...

I don't want to hear about Harry Potter or any other book right now. I'm not setting this up for a debate about which is better. I just want to know seriously and honestly why you Twilight fans enjoy reading Twilight. I want to see an actual reason that Twilight is a good book.
If you don't like Twilight, I don't want to hear you saying anything bad about it. I just want to know why people like it. Because all the debate's I've seen have no actual reasons. They have HP fans and Twihards going on about which book is better, but not why they like it.
I do actually want respectful debate though. I want to discuss the reasons you give, but nicely.
If you can't be respectful of each other's opinions then just don't comment.
And I'm not trying to hate on Twilight, but if I disagree with you I will debate with you.
I don't know if there are other debate's about this, so I'm sorry if there are, but I didn't look.
I'm just rambling now so let's get onto it!

I thought of a very wonderful quote. I'm not sure where it came from. I might have read it somewhere before. Maybe it is many quotes brought together. Maybe it is entirely of my own creation. I don't know. Anyways, I find it to be very beautiful and thought-provoking...

"Twilight is a children's book poorly disguised as great literature. Harry Potter is great literature poorly disguised as a children's book."

I doubt I wrote it. I'm not capable of coming up with something so witty and beautiful as that.

Allow me to explain what it means. It means that Twilight makes people think it is great literature...

Because My Taste In Books Is Just That Awesome

It's easy to point out the negatives in the things we don't like. Likewise, it's also easy to point out the positives in those things which we love. Difficult, it is, to accept the positives in that which we hate, and the negatives in that which we enjoy. Today, I would like to point out to you solely the positives. And it's a good thing I like both things that I intend to praise because otherwise I might find this a difficult endevour to pursue.

In short, I'm gonna tell you what's good about both HP and Twi. These might seem a bit repetitive to...

80. In harry potter lots of girls fell in luv with guys. And i could not understand your writing. You sound drunk.

81. Reason why harry potter is better.

82. You just admitted that harry potter story is better. And this isn't a who would win: wizards or vampires.

83. You did not give one reason why harry potter is better instead you went on a rant on how much u luv it and you keep on insulting it. Let me deflect your insults. Harry potter is not nerdy just because he wears round glasses and sometimes smart. Edward is not real to you cause he is a flake. And again it doesnt matter if harry...
