George Harrison In Help! (1965)

some of you didn’t spend four years waiting for ben solo’s redemption arc and for him and rey to realise their feelings for each other only to have him die straight after and it shows.

I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling 22 32!

not to talk about Harry Potter too much again but Snape's redemption is "do not use that word!" it's balancing his cover as a participant in Voldemort's regime to prevent an actual Death Eater being placed in charge of Hogwarts with his duty to protect his students - and doing so successfully. it's hearing Harry's coded message that his nemesis is in trouble and alerting the Order. it's hearing Ginny's that Harry needs the sword of Gryffindor and risking his cover to send it to him anyway. it's that he's able to produce a Patronus despite all the darkness he is surrounded with. it's him aiming spells like Sectumsempra at his old students on the battlefield and missing vital areas. it's him having to watch the corpse of one of his colleagues being devoured by a giant snake without displaying an emotional reaction.

it's the reader understanding that a large basis of his character is supposed to be formed out of relative poverty, isolation and abuse. it's the reader finding out that he spent the best part of his adult life as a spy, lying to Lord Voldemort, which is meant to be impossible. anyway if you think that you were meant to forgive/feel sorry for Snape because he loved Lily Evans (or worse, because he wanted to have sex with Lily Evans) then you can't read and that's on you
