# Malfoid memes | Malfoid Wiki Canonical page: https://malfoid.wiki/memes Last updated: 2026-10-11 Most Malfoid memes are one joke: she insults Potter, then she blushes. On top of that, fans built a set of running gags, from “Pottah” and “my father will hear about this” to the Walmart Slytherin robes and “guys, pack it up”. ## Key facts - The core joke: Insult Potter, then blush - Most-quoted line: “Pottah” / “Pottar” - Compared to: Bowsette, 2018 - Declared over: October 2, 2026, by meme ## What the Malfoid meme is Every Malfoid meme runs on one beat. Draco Malfoy, redrawn as a girl, says something cruel to Harry Potter, and then she blushes. The insult is usually a real Draco line from the books or films; the blush is the joke. That is the tsundere formula from anime, and it is why the Malfoid meme spread so fast after @redteneri's drawing on September 22, 2026: anyone who knew Draco could get it in one picture [1]. The closest comparison is Bowsette, the 2018 trend that turned Bowser from Super Mario into a princess [2]. Lessons in Meme Culture made the link in a video called Malfoid Is The New Bowsette, and that video became a Malfoid meme of its own, as you will see below.

Fans spelled that out as Pottah, Pottar or POTTTAH, and it is now the one word every Malfoid meme reaches for. The most-liked Pottah Malfoid meme on this page is masoq095's, where Harry has grown taller than her and she orders him to kneel; it passed 100,000 likes. xin_cere_art turned the word into a short animated loop. > @masoq095: Slytherin girl ragebaits herself (https://x.com/masoq095/status/2105400871664435296, 102K likes as of 2026-10-14) > @xin_cere_art: POTTTAH #Malfoid #Malfoy (https://x.com/xin_cere_art/status/2105811870133395885, 47K likes as of 2026-10-14) ## “My father will hear about this” This Malfoid meme takes Draco's signature threat from the films. It keeps the words and changes the mood. masoq095's three-pose sheet uses it straight, as a pout. spaz141 has her whisper it while Harry puts a ring on her finger. In Japan, bkub drew her wailing “Father!” while Buckbeak bites her, a nod to the hippogriff scene in the third book. > @spaz141: "Oh, Harry... My father will hear about this..." #harrypotter #malfoy #malfoid (https://x.com/spaz141/status/2107529186227425489, 11K likes as of 2026-10-14) > @bkub_comic: (image) (https://x.com/bkub_comic/status/2105691479645807098, 100K likes as of 2026-10-14) ## The original weasel Draco spends seven books sneering at the Weasleys, and in the fourth book Moody turns him into a bouncing white ferret, a close cousin of the weasel. Put those together and the girl Malfoy is the original weasel. The best-known Malfoid meme of this kind is Kekel0212's “slytherin weasel” sheet from September 27, at over 100,000 likes: three classic Draco lines and a small white ferret sitting at her feet. We could not find a single post that coined the exact phrase “original weasel”; it seems to have grown out of posts like this one. > @Kekel0212: slytherin weasel (https://x.com/Kekel0212/status/2104332663578394887, 108K likes as of 2026-10-14) ## “Potter, release me at once” This Malfoid meme gets searched a lot and is hard to show. The line comes from a comic posted on X around September 24, 2026, in which she demands that Harry let go of her. The post has since been deleted, and its artist said the comic was heading into adult content, so we don't link it or describe more of it. Most of the talk about it now happens on Reddit. The phrase also sounds exactly like something Draco would say, which is partly why it caught on. ## Sectumsempra The darkest Malfoid meme borrows the bathroom duel from the sixth book, where Harry casts Sectumsempra on Draco without knowing what it does. Fan versions have her hesitate mid-curse because she has already fallen for him, and Harry fire first. Many of these drawings show the wounds in detail; we leave those out. ammonoid9's rough sketch page is the earliest we found that tells the joke without blood. > @ammonoid9: malfoid sectumsempra scene got me learning how to panel and shit (https://x.com/ammonoid9/status/2105321947206754815, 13K likes as of 2026-10-14) ## “Guys, pack it up” On October 2, ten days in, someone posted a screenshot of the Lessons in Meme Culture video with one line: “Guys, pack it up. The fun's over.” The idea is that once a meme explainer channel covers a trend, the trend is dead. It became a Malfoid meme in its own right and got quoted endlessly, which proved the opposite. The Malfoid meme was still producing new comics a week later. > @wed_Komi_iF: Guys, pack it up. The fun’s over.

English posters picked it up as a better pun than Malfoid. - **Chudblood.** A play on mudblood: she shows Harry their baby and claims victory. The joke is aimed as much at the fans drawing her as at Draco. - **“I can't prove it, but…”** A reaction image template pairing a squinting TV detective with the US Department of Education's Harry Potter post, as if the trend were a government plot. > @spaceshark23: Slytherin robes out of stock at my Walmart. Probably nothing.
