A few of the ideas are great, but never utilized. For example, the only consequences of Voldemort's soul being merged with Harry's that are not a power-up are accidental: he is supposed to be pure of heart when he turns women into immortal sex slaves, forces the Dursleys to eat each other forever, or approves of a child being raped repeatedly AND turns his mom into another sex slave when she tries to end her son's suffering.
Luna becomes just as nasty, encouraging his evil every step of the way.
Now, Dumbledore is supposed to be an all-powerful threat, but in practice... he is someone who gets casually killed a lot.
The story does have some good things: it manages to make Draco actually likable and make anyone root for him, Dumbledore's true form is hilarious, and the worldbuilding is quite good. And also, the idea of Dark versions of Houses is brilliant.
But these are not enough to compensate for the fact that the story has a lot of rants, weak fight scenes that are nothing but dry analysis, no emotional moments and is very politically incorrect.
