He was abducted by Hagrid when he turned 11 so that would place him maybe around the fifth or sixth grade.

I don't know if canonically there are math classes at Hogwarts.


The thought came to while I was watching the anime Mashle. If you are into Harry Potter and One-Punch Man I'd recommend giving it a watch.


Someone mentioned this community below; I wanted to highlight it.

The jedi are pretty warped in their sense of morality... ethics and philosophy.

It's improper to grow connections, yet the force is a mystical energy field that connects all things...
It's improper to (force) choke a guy out, but it's totally fine to chop off his arm. Or leg. or hand. Or hands, legs and arms.
Slavery is illegal, yet infants are taken by the order and brainwashed into servitude. anyone who washes out of being a jedi joins the auxilary service corps; mopping decks, unloading cargo, and generally doing stuff most binary droids are capable of...

but in any case, back to the topic at hand; the point I'm trying to make is that, while yes... it's possible, it's fairly unlikely. sure, an Abrams could be taken out with a single rock chucked at it. but you don't see anyone stocking up on anti-tank rocks. Even with the centaurs and the giant spiders... eventually everyone gets away from them. Umbridge was little more than irritated. and that, more at Potter than at the centaurs.

that's kind of the problem with magic that's overpowering. Rowling solved the problem by basically excluding muggles from the story altogether- they're only vaguely aware of things happening at all- they see people disappearing, they see the 'accidents' happening. But they don't know there's witches, and that a war is on, they don't know that the bridge collapsed because of terrorism... just that the bridge collapsed.

Star wars handled it by making lesser jedi vulnerable to those things. (like the battle in ep 2, where most of the jedi karked it to the overwhelming numbers of battle droids.) while people like Ahsoka murder them by the battalion... as a preteen.

(PS, if you liked Mando.... try Andor. No jedi stuff. my favorite guy is the dude with the anvil.)
