If you have already seen the series merlin and at the same time they are fans of Harry Potterthey will not let us lie when we say that there are scenes and details that remind us of the magical world of the most famous magician of all time.
Of course it could also be that we are one potterheads and let’s see, eat and dream of Harry, but so that they don’t tell them and we don’t tell them (not even ourselves), below we leave you the list of details that reminded us of some scenes and passages from Warner Bros. movies, which I recreate the saga written by JK Rowling.
1. In the scene of the stairs at the dance
Surely, you remember when Hermione captivates everyone when she goes downstairs to go to the winter ball wearing her beautiful pink dress, because the scene in which Merlina goes downstairs to go to the Never Again Academy dance, but wearing her black dress, it reminds us of the scene in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Don’t you?
2. The botany class
We think we don’t have to remind you that one of the most viewed classes in the history of Harry Potter is that of botany and precisely in the series of merlin We see how the young woman has a lot of knowledge about plants. Only the mandrakes are missing!
3. Sculptures with passageways
The sculptures are a key piece in both schools, since in them there are doors to secret passages. In merlin the figure of the writer Edgar Allan Poe is one of the most important secret passages, while in Harry Potter the phoenix leads to Dumbledore’s office.
4. Competitions
Competitions are very common in schools and not to mention those magical institutions. We don’t know if you, but for us the competition in the river to win the Poe Cup reminded us of the famous House Cup game in Harry Potter.
5. Spiders
When the spider that Xavier gives life to is crushed by Merlina, we remember the scene where in front of Hermione they cast a spell to kill the same kind of insect.
6. The Chamber of Secrets
We all remember the second part of Harry Potter where they open the secret chamber to which almost no one or no one had access, because in merlin it is enough to solve a riddle and snap your fingers twice to open it, while Harry manages to open it by speaking parseltongue.
7. The mysterious school
It is true that Nunca Más is not a huge castle nor does it have stairs that change places, but since its facilities are mysterious with a Gothic touch, they are, and Hogwarts is also mysterious, isn’t it?
8. The division between people with special talents
In Harry Potter we would be muggles, while in Tim Burton’s series people without special talents, magic or magical creatures are normies. Of course there is a division where “normal” people are the ones who don’t like people like Merlina and her schoolmates.
9. The protagonists have a prophecy
Both Merlina and Harry Potter have an important past that neither of them knew about, but with which they both carry a great responsibility on their shoulders.
