History Main / AnnoyingYoungerSibling

* Ryouta Misumi from ''FutariWaPrettyCure'' is... Shingo Tsukino reincarnated or something, considering how he acts towards [[TheHeroine Nagisa]]. He even mirrors Shingo's feelings towards his sister's [[SmartGuy smartass friend]] Ami, with his own feelings towards [[TheLancer Hon]][[SmartGuy oka]].

* Averted in ''HeartcatchPrettyCure'': first, [[TheLancer Erika]] is a main character, second, she does not act as an annoying younger sibling, she acts as an ''annoyed'' younger sibling to her elder sister Momoka.
** [[spoiler:Dark Precure is TheRival and archnemesis to [[SmartGuy Yuri]] and turns out to be her artificial younger sister. That makes her a very tragic example, as Yuri learns about the truth when Dark Precure is dying after their death battle.]]
* In ''SuitePrettyCure'', [[TheLancer Kanade]] [[SmartGuy Minamino's]] brother Souta often acts as an annoying younger sibling, but he is a much milder example than Ryouta. Kanade's best [[TheHeroine Hibiki]] and Souta's friend [[TheChick Ako]] [[TagalongKid Shirabe]] sympathize with him and they ''know'' his annoying character. But Kanade is a little bit to blind to notice his nice side.

** Same with Roger Clinton, younger brother of President BillClinton.

* Tsukino Shingo from ''Manga/SailorMoon''; he was actually quite tolerable and likable, but like many other extras, he vanished over the show's run. The AnnoyingYoungerSibling role was taken by Chibi-Usa, who immediately partnered with Shingo to make Usagi's life hell. (posing as the main character's cousin, but actually her KidFromTheFuture), whose actual involvement in the plot (so much so that she got her own season) made her a little too annoying.

* [[BigGuy Nao]] [[CoolBigSis Midorikawa]] from ''SmilePrettyCure'' has ''five'' of them. Three brothers and two sisters. Though, Nao doesn't consider them as annoying and loves playing with them. [[TheHeroine Miyuki]] and [[TeamPet Candy]] however, have a hard time with them.
** [[spoiler:Nao gets a sixth newborn sibling. A girl. Probably, she will become annoying, too.]]
** [[TheLancer Akane]] has a snarky younger brother called Genki. However, he is mild example and Akane doesn't get really annoyed of him.

* In ''SuitePrettyCure'', [[TheLancer Kanade]] [[SmartGuy Minamino's]] brother Souta often acts as an annoying younger sibling, but he is a much milder example than Ryouta. Kanade's best [[TheHeroine Hibiki]] and Souta's friend [[TheChick Ako]][[TagalongKid Shirabe]] sympathize with him and they ''know'' his annoying character. But Kanade is a little bit to blind to notice his nice side.

* In ''ToAruMajutsuNoIndex'' Mikoto's cloned sisters sometimes troll her, and one of them once stole her ice cream. One of them hangs a lampshade on the trope [[http://mangafox.me/manga/to_aru_kagaku_no_railgun/v06/c039/11.html here]].

* In ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'', Phineas (and to a lesser extend, Ferb) were originally meant to be this to Candace. You can see remnants of this in the first episode, where Phineas is a lot snarkier and goes out of his way to antagonize his sister. But CharacterisationMarchesOn, and now they're much more likely to want to help Candace out than annoy her.

* Marie is this in ''ErikasNewPerfume'', but at the same time she looks at Erika as such. It's [[FountainOfYouth complicated.]]

** Later on, this trope has since become inverted, as Candace's obsession with busting her brothers has taken her to the point of being downright mean.

The AnnoyingYoungerSibling is often used by writers as a balance to the "coolness" of the main protagonist. Typically the opposite sex of the main character.

* From {{Batman}}, Tim Drake sees Damian Wayne as this. At one point when he tries to keep Damian out of a computer file the password he sets is [[CousinOliver cousinoliver]].

* And [[TheLancer Rin's]] siblings Yuu and Ai Natsuki in ''[[YesPrecure5 Yes! Pretty Cure 5]]'' are Ryouta in stereo as HalfIdenticalTwins.

* As Karluk from ''{{Otoyomegatari}}'' lives with his rather large family, this is 19th century Turkey after all, his many nieces and nephews fit this trope strongly.

* Can't mention sibling rivalry in connection with comic strips without mentioning Lucy and Linus van Pelt from the ''{{Peanuts}}'' series. To a somewhat lesser extent, Sally is this to Charlie Brown.

* BillCosby has a routine called "My Brother Russell," revolving around a terrible night trying to sleep in the same bed as his youngest sibling.

* Inverted in ''ManaKhemia2FallOfAlchemy'' with CloudCuckooLander Et being the source of irritation for her closer to Earth younger brother Enna.
