Harry potter doesn’t really fit into the chosen one archetype any more than anyone else. The only person that “chose” him is his mom, which makes him equally special to almost every other person on the planet.
Trelawney made a prophecy and Voldemort decided Harry fit the bill, although Neville also met the criteria. Voldemort went to the Potter house to kill Harry, end his biggest rival before he could grow up, and create a horcrux from the murder of his enemy. Voldemort chose Harry.
Also these books are so fucking racist. “Cho chang”. We should stop talking about them.
So much writing has been done about how Cho Chang is a perfectly reasonable name that I don’t even understand how it’s still out there. It’s amazing how disinformation Never Dies.
