Big Little Brother | comment |
When someone mentions their "little brother or sister", you usually expect a smaller individual. Common sense says the older sibling should be the taller one, because they had more time to grow. The Big Little Brother turns that common sense on its head. This may go along with the younger sibling appearing more mature, composed and responsible, or more generally acting and sounding older than the older sibling. This is usually a surprise to both the audience and the characters in a story, though one Played for Laughs. Expect the shorter older sibling to have Height Angst, especially if the younger sibling wasn't always taller. This trope primarily applies to siblings of the same sex. It is less unusual for younger brothers to grow to be taller than older sisters, given that men are generally taller than women. If this is portrayed as strange or unusual when both siblings are fully-grown adults, it can be a case of Reality Is Unrealistic, similar to Short Teens, Tall Adults. But this trope can still be played straight if he's a hulking giant while she's average-sized or petite. This can be unintentional in long-running live-action TV series where actors cast as children hit a growth spurt during puberty and end up taller than their onscreen older sibling(s). But if it appears in film, comics, or animation, it's almost certainly a deliberate invocation of this trope. Such height differences can also be the case with adopted, step- or half-siblings. Different biological parents means different sets of height genes. This can be heavily exaggerated in more fantastical works where Interspecies Adoption is practiced; for example, if the younger adopted sibling is a literal giant, a Kaiju, or other similar type of massive creature, or conversely, if the older adopted sibling is a dwarf, a fairy, or other similar type of diminutive creature. Shapeshifting can also cause or amplify this height difference, especially if the older sibling is made younger or the younger sibling is made older (or maybe some more general type of Sizeshifting). See Small Parent, Huge Child for a parent-child variation. |

A Loud House Christmas: Among the Loud sisters, Luna (the third eldest), Luan (the fourth eldest), and Lynn Jr. (the fifth eldest) tower over Leni (the second eldest), with Lynn being slightly taller than Leni if not the same height. In contrast, in the animated series, their heights were directly proportionate to their ages. | |

In Noob that is set inside a MMORPG, level 100 avatars are generally taller than the ones of lower level players. The characters include a pair of siblings in which the younger brother is part of the elite while the older one is part of a guild struggling to progress. The present case just had the two already known characters turn out to be siblings, but seeing them side by side and the fact that the older one is a Manchild put the trope in full gear. | |

As one of several side effects of Alya hijacking a reality altering wish from Gabriel Agrestre in Alya and the Harem Reality, Zoe, Chloe's younger half sister, is now taller than her. This is among several sources of grief Chloe has about Zoe in the story's universe, along with the fact she has more time with their mother and the fact Zoe is nicer and more likeable than Chloe is by Chloe's own admission. | |

Harry Potter: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix: We get to meet Hagrid's little brother, Grawp. Grawp, being a full giant instead of just a half giant, is 16 feet tall (which makes him small, by giant standards). The Weasley siblings have some more normal examples: oldest child Bill, Percy and Ron are tall and thin like their father Arthur, while Charlie (older than Percy and Ron) and Fred and George (older than Ron) are short and stocky like their mother Molly. |

The Dresden Files: Six-and-a-half-foot-tall Harry Dresden is also more powerful than his six-foot-nothing older brother, though Thomas is physically stronger. In Cold Days, Harry realizes that he now looks like the older brother, and that since Thomas is a White Court vampire, he will look more youthful than Harry for the rest of their lives. Played with (for laughs) with the Gruffs. The Gruffs (as in, Billy Goat) are the Summer Queen's troubleshooters (trouble? they'll shoot it), and each one is progressively larger than the one before, just like in the fairy tale. After having fought off one marginally smaller than a school bus and having been warned that its big brother was on the way, Harry begins to be seriously worried. When Harry realizes that last one has him cornered, he starts making his peace. On the way in, the Eldest Gruff casually destroys a Denarian (a Fallen Angel in a mortal host) with love and happiness. He's five feet tall and Harry defeats him with a donut. |

The Discworld of A.A. Pessimal has Johanna Smith-Rhodes, who grew up as the oldest of a family of five Rimwards Howondalandians. Andreas Smith-Rhodes, who was born two years after Johanna, fondly describes her as "my bigsister", despite being easily a foot taller and quite a lot wider and more muscular. Johanna might look up at him, call him little brother, and perhaps remind him of the time in childhood where she had to hit him so hard his ears rang for days. | |

The Order of the Stick has a variant in Start of Darkness prequel book — Redcloak is immortal, so by the end of the story his younger brother appears decades older than him. He's also grown wiser, having moved on from the tragedy that originally motivated them and trying to find a new way of life for the goblins that doesn't rely on insane liches, vengeful gods, or an Eldritch Abomination. Redcloak on the other hand is still the same angry teenager who put on the Crimson Mantle decades ago. | |

Ascendance of a Bookworm ends up with complex variation. When Starting a New Life, the protagonist needs to pretend to be a year younger that she actually is all while ending up with an adoptive brother who is roughly a quarter of a year older than her. In terms of chronological age, her brother is actually three quarters of a year younger than her, but still taller than her. A lot of it comes from the protagonist being so small for her age that she's frequently mistaken for being at least two years younger than her actual age. | |

Batman: Jason Todd is now taller than his adoptive older brother Dick Grayson. Then again, most characters are (seeing as how Dick is seemingly the only real-world average height male in the uncommonly tall DC universe). Damian (currently 13) is still shorter than Tim (16ish?), but his growth rate and Flash Forwards have indicated that he'll outgrow him eventually. |

Anchor Foal II: Deconstructed. Because Zephyr is naturally taller than Fluttershy, ponies that met them when they were kids tended to assume he was the older sibling, looking after his timid younger sister. By the time they reached adulthood, this led to him internallizing the idea that he has to look after her, or else who knows what kind of trouble she'll get into. | |

The Heroes of Olympus: The series features Thalia and Jason Grace. Thalia is almost eight years older than Jason, but, though her height is never actually mentioned, Jason is described as "imposing, athletic, and an all-around American boy", which may imply which one is taller. It helps that Thalia's growth is dragged back by her five years of being stuck in a tree, and when she gets to spend about maybe a year to grow up, she's stuck in age again as part of her immortality deal with the Hunters of Artemis, making her forever-15-years-old, while Jason continues to grow normally (which means that as of The Mark of Athena, where he celebrates his 16th birthday, he's literally older than his older sister! Confused yet?) There's also Hazel and Nico, at least as of The Blood of Olympus. Hazel is described as a bit petite, though she dons a spatha for a weapon, while Nico has officially grown muscles as of TBO. Hazel was born around 1930, while Nico was born in maybe 1935. Percy Jackson and his Cyclops half-brother Tyson, who's about seven years younger than Percy but was a couple feet taller than him in his first appearance, and only gets bigger as the series goes on. |

The Spring siblings are also like this. Tori, the oldest, stands at 5'2", Charlie, the middle child, is 5'11", and the youngest, Oliver, eventually grows to at least 6'1". |

Fate/stay night: Illyasviel aka Illya is the biological daughter of Shirou's adopted father, Kiritsugu Emiya, and his Artificial Human wife Irisviel. As such, they consider each other brother and sister for the most part (though Illya has tried multiple times to pursue a romantic angle), with Illya even calling him "Onii-chan/Big Brother". The twist is that, despite her appearance and her childish attitude, Illya's actually 18 years old, and therefore the elder of the two, a fact that is rarely acknowledged. Side material also brings up Stheno and Euryale, Rider/Medusa's older sisters, who look 14 at best when their little sister is huge in a lot of ways. This is in tune with their appearance in Classical Mythology, where Medusa was the only one of the Gorgons saddled with mortality (godly heritage is fickle like that). |

After being reverted back to his 16-year-old self by a Quirk, Touya is miffed to find that his youngest brother Shouto is taller than him by a few centimeters.

A case of Big Little Sister in Flander's Company: Cindy Trueman is 16, but she's way smaller than her little sister Gladys, who is SIX, and yet looks like a muscular man (with braids). | |

The Belgium comic strip Suske en Wiske uses this trope in at least two albums. In de malle mergpijp, Jerom is forced to fight a giant grotkastaar (an ape-like inhabitant of Jerome’s prehistoric homeworld) who is the “little brother� of a much smaller and less impressive grotkastaar. In the album de glanzende gletsjer, Lambik finds himself in a world inhabited by cave men, who force him to fight against the little brother of their chief; a tall and muscular cave man. | |

High and Tight Seth the youngest brother is easily the tallest (his actor Robert Madden is 6 ft 3). When Scott hugs him goodbye, he's noticeably taller — and Scott's actor had to stand on a pile of books for the scene. | |

In Mega Man (Archie Comics), the "Worlds Unite" event allows Rock to meet his future successor and "little brother", Mega Man X. While Rock is designed to resemble and act like a child, X has the appearance and mentality of someone in their late teens or early 20s. Despite these differences in design, they quickly find common ground over how weary they are of fighting and violence, and Rock does his best to impart his own brand of brotherly wisdom as X wonders if he should have never been built. | |

Avatar: The Way of Water: Kiri absolutely towers over her adoptive older brother Spider, making her seem like the big sister despite him being a year older. This one's a justified Interspecies Adoption example, as Kiri is a Na'vi (a species that can reach up to 10 feet tall when fully grown) and Spider is a human. | |
