In the Harry Potter stories, the academic session of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry starts from September 1. Hence, when JK Rowling tweeted about James Sirius Potter's first day at Hogwarts, the Potterheads went into frenzy all over Internet.
Have just heard that James S Potter has been Sorted (to nobody's surprise) into Gryffindor. Teddy Lupin (Head Boy, Hufflepuff) disappointed.

The fans flooded Rowling's tweet with their replies and congratulated James S Potter as if he was a real person. Some even tweeted wishing they would start their own adventure.
A number of fans also urged Rowling to sort Harry Potter's other children, Albus Severus Potter and Lily Luna Potter, in Slytherin which came as a surprise as Slytherin is mostly considered a black sheep among the herd.
.@annabroges @jk_rowling I desperately want some Slytherin Potters. Really any respectable Slytherins.

Some fans expressed concern that Rowling has never done justice to Slytherin.
@annabroges as a proud Slytherin, I need some badass social justice politician Slytherins. — Ella Dawson (@brosandprose) September 1, 2015
There were others who tweeted that there are already too many Gryffindors.
@jk_rowling Too many griffindors for my taste.

And some complained that not much attention is being given to Draco Malfoy's son, Scorpius Malfoy.

There were mixed feelings and emotions to Rowling's tweet. Some were happy with the sorting of James Potter whereas others were clearly disappointed. However, with such occasional updates like the short stories on various characters in Harry Potter, Rowling always makes sure that the magical world of Harry Potter remains fresh among billions of fans all around the globe.
