Hmm I guess I don't really agree? I always see a lot of Ravenclaw appreciation among the fans because it's the "intelligent" house and very well regarded, vs a lot of outright Hufflepuff disdain for some reason, and both Luna and Cho had pretty big supporting roles (and Michael Corner dated Ginny -- though Hannah and Neville got married that didn't happen in the books proper so I count it differently). The Hufflepuffs "reoccur" a lot but don't have very significant roles compared to those two (discounting Cedric ofc and he and Cho intersect a bit anyway -- Justin did get CoS but p much disappeared as a character afterward). But yeah there is definite Gryffindor and Slytherin bias in the narrative for the obvious reasons and the other two get neglected in comparison because of it but I don't really see Ravenclaw as "ignored" from my personal viewpoint.

Anyway though that was my reasoning behind making a Hufflepuff gif, the dismissal, Ravenclaws are a bit more aloof and it wouldn't have the same underdog house message to it. (I set the gif to Bon Jovi's "It's My Life")

i'm not really either, HP fandom scares me @_@ so I could be wrong too, I'm mostly going off what I've witnessed from the outside or my IRL friends... I don't think I can ever get involved in the fandom enough to try and know for sure.
