5. There’s No Magic School
Yeah, this is a pretty good reason as to why Twilight is better than Harry Potter. Each year, they didn’t have to go to a school to learn their powers. They already knew their powers. However, a school for vampires would have added a cool twist to it, don’t you think?
***
One of the charms of the Twilight universe is the innate abilities that vampires and werewolves possess. They hone their skills through personal experience and mentorship rather than formal education. It brings a sense of realism and relatability, as everyone goes through the journey of self-discovery. Imagine having your vampire mentor casually drop hints on how to better control your thirst for blood while you're out shopping, instead of sitting in a classroom. Now, that's a fresh take on supernatural adolescence that feels uniquely Twilight!
It's all about personal taste! Some people prefer the romance and intense emotions in Twilight, while others enjoy the adventure and magical world in Harry Potter. It's like choosing between chocolate and vanilla ice cream—both are great, but different people have their favorites!
That's up for debate! Twilight fans love the central love story between Bella and Edward because it's dramatic and full of tension. Harry Potter has love stories too, but they play a smaller role compared to the main adventure.
Not really! Harry Potter's world is full of magical creatures, but vampires aren't a big part of the story. Twilight, on the other hand, is all about vampires and their secretive, glamorous lives.
Some people believe the magic and fantasy elements might be inappropriate or conflict with personal beliefs, but others argue it's a great way to spark imagination and encourage reading. It's a hot topic for sure!
If you love Harry Potter, you might enjoy books like 'Percy Jackson & The Olympians' for more magical adventures. For Twilight fans, 'The Vampire Diaries' offers another take on vampire romance. There are so many wonderful books out there!
4. Edward Wasn’t a Dork
Yeah, sometimes, dorks are cute. However, Harry was a bit too dorky and I can’t see why girls even liked him. I do like the stories, but I don’t really did the movies as much. However, I like both the books and movies when it comes to Twilight.
***
Edward Cullen, with his enigmatic allure and vampire mystique, offered a stark contrast to the often awkward and self-deprecating Harry Potter. His confident yet tormented personality exuded a dark charm that many found irresistible. He was never clumsy with his words or actions, which made him appear suave and sophisticated. In essence, Edward epitomized the classic brooding hero, which is a trope that never fails to capture hearts. Coupled with his supernatural appeal and protective nature, it's no wonder he became the epitome of teenage fantasy and a romantic figure that didn't need to resort to dorkiness to be adored.

3. Love Story
Harry Potter is not a love story and Twilight is. Therefore, in my opinion, I believe this would make Twilight better than Harry Potter.
***
The emotional core of Twilight hinges on the intense romance between Bella and Edward. Their relationship is fraught with drama, passion, and the thrill of forbidden love, which resonates with many readers, particularly those who relish the escapism of a good romance story. It's the kind of love affair that has fans fiercely invested in the characters' fates, debating Team Edward or Team Jacob, and swooning over their favorite moments. While Harry Potter does feature romantic subplots, they're just that—subplots, rather than the driving force of the narrative. Twilight, on the other hand, places love front and center, capturing the hearts of its audience in a way that's uniquely its own.

I like Twilight because it has vampires in it. I think this helps to make it better than Harry Potter, don’t you? Even just a little?
***
Vampires add a sense of forbidden allure and mystery that is undeniably attractive. Their timeless charm and complex nature give a romantic edge that's hard to find in other supernatural tales. And let's be honest, the vampire-human love story between Edward and Bella is a magnetic narrative that pulls at the heartstrings. Twilight showcases the dilemmas and passions that come with such an enthralling bond, making it positively irresistible! The idea of immortality mixed with romance is a combination that gives the saga an added level of depth and excitement, perfectly fueling the addiction to the series.

1. Better Story
Personally, I think Twilight was better than Harry Potter because it had a better story to it. Twilight always had my attention and even though I liked Harry Potter, I dealt with moments of boredom.
Those are 5 reasons Twilight is better than Harry Potter. I know there are some pretty big Harry Potter fans out there that will swamp my blog with saying Harry Potter is better, but that’s fine. Nothing wrong with Harry Potter. So, are you a Harry Potter fan or Twilight? Or Both?

i just read 100 reasons why HP is bettar than twilight and i totally agreed with them xD sorry, but they beat your 5 reasons...
I'm not even that big of a Harry Potter fan, but this list had me face palming all night long. You must not have read the books if you believe that any of the reasons you listed here are true.
Twilight is about how if a creepy one hundred year old vampire watches you in your sleep, your in love because he's flawless and you smell good to him. and talking about fact that your in love all day every day is, apparently, true love and that having a boyfriend is the most important thing.
Harry Potter is about a boy whose parents are murdered trying to protect his life during a take-over by a vicious, racist bloodthirsty mass murderer who then develops a personal vendetta against him and tries to murder him in the most horrific ways possible. It's about the struggle of an entire society against hate crimes. there are hundreds of characters, intense character development and countless lessons to be learned the most important of which is that all HUMANS ARE EQUAL. the protagonist survives through blood, sweat and the unwavering loyalty of his friends. Harry Potter teaches you to do the right thing even if you're persecuted for it! It's full of characters you can identify with and learn from and codes you can live by despite taking away the main concept of the books(that magic is real) Bella Swan on the other hand has taught me to run away from my problems instead of facing the consequences of my decisions even if it means I have to die. (preferably by becoming an eternally youthful vampire) Twilight is about a girl who abandons the human race because she's scared of wrinkles! That being said; the premise for the comparison between Harry Potter and Twilight is flawed. 1. Twilight is a romance while Harry potter is not 2. Harry potter is longer, therefore the writer has more of an opportunity to develop her characters. 3. Harry Potter is in an entirely different literary league than Twilight.(as demonstrated by the enormous number of grammatical, spelling and punctuation errors in Twilight and the entire lack of any such errors through he entire length of Harry Potter) You could have avoided all this drama by changing the article name to: 5 reasons I like Twilight more than I like Harry Potter. As there is nothing wrong with the fact that you prefer romance novels to adventures or believe that vampire are superior to wizards as fictional heroes.
All I am going to say is that you have no sense of what magic, or love, even is. And I feel sorry for you.
Ahem. Darling this was painful to read. Point A) Harry Potter is not a love story. WTF? There is so much love in Harry Potter. Romantic love, of course, for example Harry and Ginny. Parental love, a HUGE theme in the books- how Lily dies to save her son. Platonic (friendly) love, between Harry and his friends Ron and Hermione and everyone. The list goes on. The "love" in Twilight is dull romantic love, as in "I can't live without you- without you I'm going to die." Two dimensional. Point B) Best Story. I almost died here. Best story? Ha. The storyline in Twilight is predictable and entirely a ROMANCE. Harry Potter is an action story, adventure, romance, so much more. The plot twists and turns with all kinds of adventures and details. There are so many details in HP, so many things to dwell on, so many intricacies of the writing... in Twilight, its "Is she going to pick Jacob or Edward?" and that's it. (:
There are I believe more couples in Harry Potter than there are in Twilight. Lily and James. Lily and Severus. Harry and Ginny. Ron and Hermione. Bill and Fleur. Neville and Hannnah. Tonks and Lupin. Mr. and Mrs. Weasley. George and Angelina. The story has so many nitty gritty details that we have no idea are going to become so major. Who knew the diary was part of Voldemort's soul? Who knew that by taking Malfoy's wand, Harry was going to win the loyalty of potentially the most powerful weapon in the world? Who knew that the when centaurs said "Mars is bright tonight." they were fortelling the dawn of a second war? Who guessed that Scabbers was the cause of all Harry's pain? We watch Harry grown from the eleven year old boy who with more balls than Edward ever had and lived in a cupboard into a seventeen year old "chosen one" who had seen and experianced more suffering than Twilight characters ever will. And we, the readers of these stories, grew with this boy, learning more from the wisdom of Albus Dumbledoor, the pain of Severus Snape, the laughter of Fred and George Weasley, the love of Lily Evans, the bravery of Neville Longbottom, the fire of Ginny Weasley, the bizarre phrases of Luna Lovegood, the loyalty of Ronald Weasley, the cleverness of Hermione Granger, the acceptance of Harry Potter. I leave you in the words of Albus Dumbledoor, "Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all, those who live without love. By returning, you may ensure that fewer souls are maimed, fewer families are torn apart. If that seems to you a worthy goal, then we say good-bye for the present."
Now, this is just senseless... Of course Harry and the Gang are better than Edward 'Disco Ball' Cullen! I know, I know, Eddiekins is your 'mister perfect' and I totally understand that girls want to find their 'one guy', but seriously... If you ask me, I think the Harry Potter series have a lot of character than the Twilight saga. J.K Rowling has taken a child's concept and turned it into her own mature, whimsical universe for adults and children alike. Also, Rowling's characters are undeniably believable, with excellent character development as the series progresses. Twilight on the other hand has extremely dull and flat characters. Bella is a mere damsel-in-distress, who is not at all independent and always needs a big strong vampire with overdeveloped muscles to save her. I don't know what you think, but I like women who can stick up for themselves and make their own decisions. I like girls who can fight back! Bella, unfortunately does not fit either description. Next, there is the overall plot which is absolutely nonexistent. The whole series is just like a big slow motion sequence in a movie where the man and the woman stare at each other romantically, while giving heavy doses of overcomplicated vocabulary. Merciless rape of a thesaurus, does NOT a writer make. In other words you can take the Twilight Saga and shove them up a monkey's ass; he'll find a better use for them...
How can twilight be better than Harry potter? Who has ever seen vampires act like that? They are supposed to be evil and seductive whatshisname Edward was just a sparkling guy and vampires burn in the sunlight, there is no way you can ever compare twilight to Harry potter and I'm sorry one of your points say, that twilight had a better story, will you please explain me how? All I know is that bella could have been turned into a vampire in part one and the whatever saga would have ended then, there is no story just a stupid love triangle, I'll show you a better story than twilight. My cat eats peanuts but one day he had peanut butter and died, so there you go!!! Better story than twilight and don't you dare insult Harry potter again, it's epic
