Line #58 BrattyHalfPint/AnimeAndManga


1	%%* Skuld of ''Manga/AhMyGoddess''.%% ZCE
2	%%* Renge from ''Manga/AirMaster''.%% ZCE
3	* Chiyu Tamade from ''Anime/BangDream''. One of the youngest girls in the cast at 14 years old, she's the closest thing the series has to an antagonist. Despite being intelligent and a skilled producer for Raise A Suilen, she's incredibly controlling and abrasive. From vowing to crush Poppin' Party and Roselia after perceived slights by Tae and Yukina respectively to demanding loyalty from her bandmates to the exclusion of all their other obligations, she certainly fits the bill.
4	* Isidro from ''Manga/{{Berserk}}''. Rude, ill-mannered, he is a master at the art of provoking and pissing people off.
5	* Alois Trancy of ''Anime/BlackButler'' is a [[LaughingMad very]], [[DepravedHomosexual very]] [[AxCrazy da]][[{{Yandere}} rk]] variation of this. Most definitely a [[KnightOfCerebus subversion]] of the usual kid-appeal qualities of this character.
6	* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'': Shinigami tend to be ReallySevenHundredYearsOld. However, the child characters are biologically children nevertheless.
7	** Hiyori is perpetually angry, violent and aggressive. She takes out her moods on Shinji mostly, but picks fights with everyone.
8	** ''Turn Back the Pendulum'' [[PlayedForLaughs reveals]] that ''[[TheStoic Byakuya]]'' was an obnoxious, hot-tempered brat when young. The manga has always hinted that BeneathTheMask Byakuya may be NotSoStoic. It turns out that he's become extremely good at hiding his HairTriggerTemper.
9	* ''Manga/BrokenBlade'': Not necesssarily a kid, but Girge deliberately admits this.
10	-->'''Rygart:''' You're basically just a bratty-kid!\
11	'''Girge:''' That, I already knew.
12	* Meilin from ''Manga/CardcaptorSakura''. When she isn't [[ClingyJealousGirl fawning over Syaoran]], she's constantly bragging about her abilities, real or imagined, and early on, whining whenever Sakura gets a card over Syaoran and just being a general nuisance. However, she is also very determined, caring, and always ready to take action, traits which [[CharacterDevelopment become more prominent]] late into her appearance in the series.
13	* Fuuko from ''VisualNovel/{{Clannad}}''. Despite being a teenager, she's the shortest of the main girls and is often rather prickly and temperamental towards other people, Tomoya in particular.
14	* ''Anime/CodeGeass'': Think [[Characters/CodeGeassSuzakuKururugi Suzaku Kururugi]] was a nice boy? ''Think again''. Although it must be noted that most of his nastiness was focused exclusively on Lelouch, whose entire being rubbed Suzaku in all the wrong ways. Much of it came from imitation as the grown-ups at the Kururugi Shrine showed obvious disdain towards the exiled prince, and the ten-year-old boy's childish need to prove himself superior to his equivalent from the Britannian side and the resulting self-consciousness of coming short in every aspect other than straight-out brawl. In the end it was Nunnally who gave Suzaku one hell of a HeelRealization when the wheelchair-bound girl [[ArmorPiercingQuestion asked him if he came to hit her just like he hit her brother before]] and soon after the three of them became genuinely good friends once Lelouch realized that Suzaku was kind to Nunnally for real and without any ulterior motives whatsoever.
15	* Matt from ''Manga/ACruelGodReigns'', although one could argue that he has some valid reasons.
16	* In the fourth ''Anime/DirtyPair'' OVA a group of pre-teen boys who are the sons of wealthy aristocrats take over a military base, believing it to be a fun game. They also disrespect any authority figure who tries to talk sense into them, including Yuri and Kei, whom they call "old women" even though as Kei points out at 19 they're only a little bit older than the boys are.
17	* ''Franchise/DragonBall'':
18	** Kid Trunks. What distinguishes him from Future Trunks, thanks to growing up in a time of peace (and having his father around).
19	** Goten can be like this at times too, especially when he's around his big brother. Or when Trunks ropes him into misbehaving with him.
20	** [[FusionDance Gotenks]] combines the cockiness of Kid Trunks with the naivete of Goten. He refuses to take his opponents seriously and is more concerned with looking cool than with actually winning the battle.
21	** Pan the TokenMiniMoe in ''Anime/DragonBallGT''.
22	* Mischa from ''Anime/{{Endride}}'' is a [[DefusingTheTykebomb barely diffused tykebomb]], who is tiny, arrogant, and only wants to listen or speak with Demetrio. She often gets into petty one-up-man-ship with Felix, who is her rival in [[TheQuietOne reticence]] and UndyingLoyalty to Demetrio.
23	* Mashiro from the {{yonkoma}} (and its anime adaptation) ''Manga/EngagedToTheUnidentified''. Self-important, and always trying to find a way to either take advantage of, or inconvenience her prospective sister-in-law Kobeni. Thankfully her bratty instances are curbed either by her own childish tendencies, or by Kobeni's older sister Benio, whose attentions Mashiro is ''terrified'' of.
24	* Mai and Mami from ''Anime/ExplorerWomanRay'', a couple of treasure-seeking teenage girls who steal an artifact from the title character left back in Japan, in the hope of meeting her and returning it.
25	* Bat in ''Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar''.
26	* Hiro from ''Manga/FruitsBasket'', differing from the archetype in that he's ''especially'' bratty towards the heroine. In the manga, at least, he grows up a lot, though he never does come to like Tohru.
27	* ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'': Ed is easily the living embodiment of this trope in the male perspective. But don't let him catch you calling him "half pint" or you will get ''plenty'' of bratty.
28	* Taka from ''Manga/GakuenBabysitters''. Compared to the other toddlers, he's a [[NoIndoorVoice loudmouthed]] little troublemaker with a rather big ego.
29	* UsefulNotes/DateMasamune from ''Manga/Gate7'' is a precocious and mouthy BrattyHalfPint, luckly (or unluckly) for him and everybody else, Kujuurou is always close to him to [[DopeSlap scold him.]] Subverted, since he's the One-eyed dragon's {{Reincarnation}}, he's everything but a DistressedDude.
30	** The GenderFlipped rendition in ''Literature/TheAmbitionOfOdaNobuna'' isn't any better in this environment, except in this case she was more a LargeHam.
31	* ''Manga/GirlsBravo'': Tomoka. She is portrayed as super-irritating. In fact the only justification for her terribly annoying attitude and disposition is that she is a little girl.
32	* The main character of ''Manga/HakkendenEightDogsOfTheEast'', Inuzuka Shino, is this. Of course, he's OlderThanHeLooks due to possessing [[LivingWeapon Murasame]] as the price for being his vessel and wielding his power is to have one's time frozen. As in, he's actually '''18''' instead of ''13''. Him being a brat is semi-justified by WhoWantsToLiveForever and the issues that come from always being seen by others as a kid. And, unlike most Bratty Half Pints, he is actually probably one of the ''strongest'' characters.
33	* Donwplayed in ''Anime/HelloSandybell'', where Sandybell's idea of fun is playing in forbidden areas, leading most of the neighborhood kids to view her as a CoolBigSis. She always listens to the adults when she's told off and cares about the safety of the children.
34	* ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers:''
35	** South Italy, also known as Italy Romano, was spoiled, lazy and entitled as a child, with a habit of insulting his caretaker [[NiceGuy Spain]] and rejecting all of the kind acts he attempted to do for him... and then grew into a very ''fierce'' mix of ''all'' {{Tsundere}} Type A varieties.
36	** Sealand transforms from a somewhat delusional and determined CheerfulChild into this when he's around his older brother England, whom he refers to as "jerk England," and goes out of his way to tell him that one day he's going to be a bigger empire than England ever was.
37	** More recently, [[FieryRedhead Ladonia]] is shaping up to be a prime example, mixed with him being a SpoiledBrat prone to throwing tantrums when things don't go his way. He ''demands'' to be made leader of the micronations in his introduction, no dissent tolerated.
38	** Czech Republic was this as a child; she was AlwaysSomeoneBetter to the young Slovakia, and enjoyed rubbing it into his face and teasing him.
39	** Prussia as a child (UsefulNotes/TheTeutonicKnights) was this as WordOfGod notes, being spoiled by the Pope and allowed to do whatever he wanted, as well as being a loud and tactless pint-sized BloodKnight.
40	* Shippo in ''Manga/InuYasha'' zigzags between this and MouthyKid. In his defense, there are times when he tries to help (even though he is too young) and his teasing of Inuyasha is often due to him upsetting Kagome (who Shippo sees as an adoptive mother).
41	* Marion from ''Anime/KaleidoStar'', in her first episode.
42	* ''Anime/KazeNoShojoEmily'': Ilse is a MouthyKid who's boisterous, loud, rude and. Even Emily is often angry at her, even though she's her best friend. Ilse is also quick to use her fists when she's angry and roughed up Emily on her first day of school because she hated the Murrays.
43	* Kurumi, Yusaku and Hikaru from ''Manga/KimagureOrangeRoad''.
44	* Rune from ''Manga/KimbaTheWhiteLion''.
45	* The CanonForeigner Sanae Dekomori from ''Literature/LoveChunibyoAndOtherDelusions'', who irritates her upperclassmen Yuuta and Shinka to no end.
46	* Sara from ''Manga/LoveHina''. Particularly early on, when she deliberately sets out to get Keitaro fired from his job assisting Seta. Even afterwards, she'll pull pranks for sheer amusement.
47	* Yuri, Sayaka's [[DelicateAndSickly disabled]] cousin, from ''Anime/MazingerZ''.
48	* Yuuri of ''Anime/MermaidMelodyPichiPichiPitch'' is a brat who continually insists that she isn't a child and stomps off to go do her own thing, always failing miserably. After she leaves the cast (for the most part), Seira is introduced on the good side; she does mature, and was only selfish because she had yet to gather the facets of love (which was the original intent of the quest for her to be born; having her heart stolen complicated things).
49	* ''Anime/MischievousTwinsTheTalesOfStClares'': Pat always acts as if the rules don't apply to her and tries to get out of doing work, which typically results in her being berated or punished.
50	* The three girls from ''Manga/MitsuboshiColors'' might be this at different levels, but Sat-chan is the absolute queen of troublemaking in her class.
51	* ''Manga/{{Mitsudomoe}}'': Mitsuba is an obnoxious, spiteful, petulant, histrionic brat with an inflated ego who constantly berates everybody around her and demands they call her Mitsuba-sama and agree to become her slaves the moment she has any leverage on them. She's also the show's resident Butt-Monkey, and on the rare occasions she ''does'' show concern for her sisters or anybody else it usually goes poorly. As in, "head slammed into the floor so hard blood bursts out of her face" poorly.
52	* ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'':
53	** Naruto Uzumaki -- [[PlayingWithATrope played with]] and [[{{Deconstruction}} deconstructed]], if due to his main character status.
54	*** Naruto's prototype was even brattier and far more of a JerkAss. In order to take revenge on a boy who spread rumors about him, he trapped him in a hole, pretended to offer him a lift out, then [[UrineTrouble urinated on him]], leaving a stench that lasts 10 days.
55	** Konohamaru, the Third Hokage's grandson, is a more straightforward example. Although later on, we see him [[spoiler:[[TookALevelInBadass Take A Level In Badass]] and give a Pain body a Rasengan]].
56	* ''Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi'':
57	** Anya in occasionally falls into this, with many hints at [[{{Tsundere}} simply behaving that way with a hidden sentimentality]] (likely since she appears to have a crush on TheHero).
58	** [[TheRival Kotaro]] also counts, although he's capable of maturity when the situation calls for it.
59	* Pop Harukaze from ''Anime/OjamajoDoremi''. She retains some of this after her CharacterDevelopment, but she's much less bratty and more taking occasional potshots now and then.
60	%%* Maho from ''Anime/PleaseTeacher''.
61	%%* ''Anime/PokemonTheSeries''
62	%%** Dawn's [[CreatorsPet Piplup]].
63	%%** [[TagalongKid Max]] occasionally fell into this as well during ''Advanced Generation''.
64	%%** Iris hits nearly every aspect of this trope. She's usually [[ActionGirl able to get out of a pinch on her own though]].
65	%%** Emerald from ''Manga/PokemonAdventures'' also counts.
66	* A running motif in ''Anime/OnePiece'' is how most characters embodied this trope as children but mellow out and mature with age. Even Luffy was much less cheerful and friendly when he was a kid, almost unrecognizable from his older self -- which is extra surprising, because if you just met [[ManChild Luffy]], you wouldn't believe he could be ''less'' mature.
67	* Mannen in ''Anime/{{Pretear}}'', the self-proclaimed leader of the younger half of the Leafe Knights. He tends to get the group in trouble by demanding to be treated as equals with the older knights, but he seems to genuinely mean well.
68	%%* Tomoka, Horio, and to some extent Ryoma in ''Manga/ThePrinceOfTennis''.
69	%%** Also, Akaya of Rikkai.
70	%%* Anita King of ''Anime/RODTheTV'', at least partially (especially prominent in the anime's early episodes).
71	* Yahiko from ''Manga/RurouniKenshin'' is an interesting case. He's obviously the Bratty Half Pint, and is not only fully aware of it, but ''doesn't want to be.'' His character arc is his journey from Bratty Half Pint to full-fledged Shonen hero.
72	* Chibiusa of ''Franchise/SailorMoon'', at her worst. More in the anime, but the manga version wasn't above everything.
73	* In ''AudioPlay/SaintBeast'', Maya is the youngest and most immature character on the show. He tends to throw tantrums when things don't go his way, and is often a DistressedDude.
74	* Komachi from ''Anime/SamuraiSeven''; she ''does'' get along with most of the others, but dislikes Kyuzo. But then, no one gets along with him. It is notable that Komachi almost literally hangs off Kikuchiyo.
75	* ''Manga/SgtFrog'': Karara, Chiroro, Tororo, Taruru (to some extent) and Sumomo (in the manga).
76	** Through flashbacks and Kululu's age manipulation beam gun, we learn that Fuyuki [[OlderAndWiser used to be]] the brattiest of them all.
77	* Uesegi Hiou from ''Manga/SkipBeat'' threatened Moko with his family and to ditch an appearance and blame Moko. Then he [[CharacterDevelopment acknowledges his feelings and starts to behave.]]
78	* Miu from ''Manga/StrawberryMarshmallow''. Rare is the episode where she doesn't earn Nobue's wrath, usually in the form of being knocked face-first into the floor.
79	* Uriah from the second season of ''Anime/{{Superbook}}'' was this way to Chris at first.
80	* In the first OVA series, Sasami of ''Anime/TenchiMuyo'' was this, her first appearance being spent playing a prank on Tenchi and insulting Ryoko. This held over into the first ''Anime/PrettySammy'' OVA, but once the second ''Tenchi Muyo!'' OVA series came out, she came out of this and became the more mature of the girls. The whole Tsunami thing probably helped with that.
81	* Taruto of ''Anime/TokyoMewMew''. He ends up in a DatingCatwoman relationship with the TokenMiniMoe.
82	* In ''Anime/UmiMonogatari'', Urin is childish and petulant at times, moreso to people on land than her mermaid sister Marin.
83	* Ten from ''Anime/UruseiYatsura''. One translation of his full name, Jariten, literally ''means'' "Bratty Ten". His insistence on "Ten" is for much the same reason Sakuramboo usually calls himself "Cherry"[[note]]Sakuramboo can mean "Cherry" (as in the fruit -- Sakura refers to CherryBlossoms), but also "Deranged Priest"[[/note]]. Ten is an annoying little JerkAss who is quick to insult, tease and torment others, especially if he feels he is being ignored... at least, if they're ''male''; being a KidAnova, he is almost always playing up his cuteness and innocence when interacting with girls. Unlike [[HandsomeLech Shutaro Mendo]], however, [[WouldHitAGirl he is perfectly willing to attack women if he gets angry enough]]. What makes him more dangerous than the average BrattyHalfPint is that he ''[[BreathWeapon breathes fire]]'', and is perfectly willing to exploit this ability on anyone who gets him mad. The only person who cn reign him in and make him behave is his mother, and that's one half fear of disappointing her, and one half ''utter terror'' of the punishment she may inflict if she discovers he abuses his firebreath, as [[BerserkButton people deliberately setting fires drives her mad with rage]].
84	* Johji of ''Manga/YuGiOh'' -- he is bratty and, of Yugi's party, the only one whom he gets along with is Tea... because he is a perverted baby who lusts after women.
