Youngest Child Wins | comment |
A common Fairy Tale situation. Whenever multiple siblings are portrayed, the youngest is the hero; the older ones are either evil, incompetent, outclassed, or just boring. In a standard story template that often goes along with this, each child in turn receives instructions from a (usually magical) source on how to make their fortune; the older two ignore the advice and suffer the consequences, while the youngest one follows it and gets a happy ending. Usually, this child is ostensibly somehow worse than his siblings — either more foolish (and thus more honest) or smaller and weaker (but cleverer). Even if he isn't, the older children are prone to believe that he is. The youngest daughter is often the most beautiful or otherwise most desirable. In cultures where the daughters must be married off in order of age, this can really complicate life. However, if the older children are stepchildren or half-siblings, that usually trumps this trope; the younger children usually succeed only if they are not hostile to their half siblings. (When the children are stepsiblings, the hero is usually both the youngest and the child of the first wife... confusingly. Though easily accounted for if the stepchildren were older than the hero when the hero's parent married the stepparent.) Also, this trope usually applies to a set of all sisters or all brothers. "Hansel and Gretel" is perhaps the best known of the many tales where children of mixed sex work well together. If there are several girls and one boy, he is the hero; if there are several boys and one girl, she is the hero. Indeed, in some tales, the older children do not feature as characters; their only purpose is to make the hero a youngest child. Usually when this occurs the number of children is numerologically significant: three, seven, or occasionally twelve. Often this carries undertones of underdog vindication, as the youngest is likely to start off life as the smallest and least experienced due to not having had the same time to grow yet. And in any setting in which inheritance occurs by primogeniture the youngest will naturally get the short end of the stick. There is often overlap with Otherworldly Visits Youngest First. Examples |

In Narbonic Dave, the younger sibling, is constantly stressing over how much cooler, better looking, etc. his older brother was, despite the numerous things he'd done that made him unique, like going to the moon. His mind is almost put at ease when his friends meet his brother though. | |

Completely averted in the GONE series. Twins Sam Temple (older) and Caine Soren (younger) have been at odds since Book 1. Guess who wins nearly every fight? And in the last book of the series, we have Caine dying via Heroic Sacrifice while Sam survives, having a fairly happy ending with his girlfriend Astrid. | |

Triangle Heart 3: Sweet Songs Forever: Inverted, where eldest Kyouya is the one who wins. He has more training and fewer reservations about fighting than Miyuki (who only started training after her father's death, and mostly to protect Fiasse) does, and Nanoha is useless in combat, her role here as a cute Token Mini-Moe to cart around in the civilian scenes. When she does get her "mad magic skillz", she's nowhere near as impressive as her Alternate Universe Spin-Off self. That said, it's not necessarily like her older siblings don't have the skills they have in TH3. It's just that it's not their story. | |

Abraxas (Hrodvitnon) reveals that King Ghidorah's three heads are brothers: the central head is the eldest, the head on Ghidorah's right is the middle sibling, and the head on Ghidorah's left (San) is the youngest. Not only is San the only head who physically survived the events of Godzilla King of the Monsters (although Ghidorah's Mind Hive is still active and is slowly regrowing the rest of it), but he ends up merging with Vivienne Graham and, adrift from Ghidorah's Mind Hive, he makes a Heel–Face Turn under her influence. The fic and the author have both made it clear that, unlike San, Ghidorah's other two heads are irredeemable beasts. At the fic's end, San and Vivienne live happily ever after after Ghidorah, including San's brothers and also an evil offshoot of the middle brother called MaNi, are killed again. | |

Every season of Digimon follows this trope. Everyone who has a Digimon partner is either the youngest child in their family or has a younger sibling who also has (or will have) a Digimon partner. The only exceptions to this rule are Jeri’s younger brother and Thomas' younger sister. Both of them are only half-siblings, though, so they may not count. Takuya and Angie are unquestionable aversions as they both have younger siblings back in the real world who never have anything to do with the Digital World. | |

Dragon Age: Dragon Age: Origins The royal family of Orzammar has a potential subversion of this with Prince Bhelen. He coordinates the death of his oldest sibling and causes his other brother/sister to get exiled for it, all so Bhelen can become heir to his father's throne. The subversion comes in with the fact that the main character (who ironically could also be the middle sibling who got exiled) can decide to prevent him from getting the throne. Played straight in the Human Noble Origin, where the younger son/daughter (the player character) gets left behind guarding the castle while father and older brother set off to war, and eventually ends up saving the world, accumulating riches and honors, and potentially marrying the king or queen as well, while the father dies and the older brother spends the whole story "missing in action"... Dragon Age: Inquisition The Human Inquisitor is in a similar situation to the Human Noble Warden. As the youngest child, they aren't even the spare and, if not shipped off to the Circle of Magi, is expected to join the Chantry as a templar or a priest regardless of their personal feelings on the subject. Then the Breach happens and they become the most important person in Thedas. Also seen in the backstory of the Orlesian civil war. Empress Celene, the current ruler, was the youngest grandchild of Emperor Judicael I. He was succeeded by his eldest son Judicael II, who expected to leave the throne to one of his twin sons, but they both died in a disease outbreak known as the Hundred Days' Cough. Their deaths led to his Despair Event Horizon and he was succeeded by his younger brother Florian, whose only child also died in the Hundred Days' Cough. When she was sixteen, Celene successfully outmaneuvered her older cousins to take the throne from Florian, thus fulfilling this trope. |

In The Silmarillion, Finwë has three sons: the two eldest die in battle, the youngest doesn't and presumably remains king of the Noldor in Valinor until the end of Arda. Then again...he's barely in the story at all, being much less badass than his brothers — and being sensible enough not to rebel against the Valar and exile himself from the safest, best place in Arda. | |

Fire Emblem: In Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War, Prince Jamka is the youngest son of King Batou of Verdane (the first nation to attack the protagonists) and joins Sigurd's army after his two brothers and his father fell under the machinations of the Lopto cult. In the manga, he becomes the king of Verdane after his father's death. In Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, Kurthnaga was the only one left to inherent the throne of Goldoa after his oldest sibling, the heir-presumptive, was killed and the middle sibling lost her powers. In Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Sylvain became the heir to House Gautier due to being born with a Crest which his older brother Miklan lacked. Deconstructed in that Sylvain doesn't think he's won anything: Not only did this end up making Miklan jealous to the point of wanting to murder him for taking what he viewed as should have been his, Sylvain has been treated as more an object to be used for his family's honor than anything and he's been left feeling like none of the girls interested in him want him rather than the benefits of marrying nobility and bearing a "Crest baby." |

"The Two Brothers", collected by The Brothers Grimm, zig-zags the trope. It's the younger of the twins who marries the princess while the elder wanders around and fails to find adventure. But the younger brother falls victim to a Wicked Witch who turns him to stone, and then the elder brother meets her and defeats her, rescuing the younger brother. "The Three Princes and Their Beasts," a similar story collected by Andrew Lang, is a complete aversion: it's the eldest brother who wins the princess, and it's the middle brother who defeats the witch after the eldest and the youngest have failed. |

In Naruto, the Sage of Six Paths had two sons. The elder would become the ancestor of the Uchiha, the younger would become the ancestor of the Senju and possibly the Uzumaki. The Sage decided that the younger would be the one "to inherit his dream of peace." This was due to clashing philosophies. The Sage asked them what was the path to peace. The elder brother, who gained his father's 'eyes' declared power was the key. The younger brother, who gained the 'body', said love was the key. The Sage chose the younger brother as his successor for the world. | |

Deconstructed in Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons; after all, it's hard for the older brother to "win" when he dies. Although the younger brother is the more victorious one because of this, his fate is only better in comparison and not particularly good, and his brother's even worse one only leaves him further saddened. | |

In Nano Machine, this was played straight with the underdog seventh prince, Chun Yeowun, who won the succession war to become the 24th Demonic Cult Lord, defeating all his more privileged half-siblings. Though this was averted with Yeowun's father, the previous Lord who was the older of Sword Clan brothers. | |

In "Puss in Boots", the main human character is the youngest son of a miller; when the miller dies, his older brothers get any property and wealth left behind, and all he's left with is the title cat... who manages to get him elevated to nobility, inheriting the castle and riches of an ogre, and married to a princess. | |

Dragon Age: Inquisition The Human Inquisitor is in a similar situation to the Human Noble Warden. As the youngest child, they aren't even the spare and, if not shipped off to the Circle of Magi, is expected to join the Chantry as a templar or a priest regardless of their personal feelings on the subject. Then the Breach happens and they become the most important person in Thedas. Also seen in the backstory of the Orlesian civil war. Empress Celene, the current ruler, was the youngest grandchild of Emperor Judicael I. He was succeeded by his eldest son Judicael II, who expected to leave the throne to one of his twin sons, but they both died in a disease outbreak known as the Hundred Days' Cough. Their deaths led to his Despair Event Horizon and he was succeeded by his younger brother Florian, whose only child also died in the Hundred Days' Cough. When she was sixteen, Celene successfully outmaneuvered her older cousins to take the throne from Florian, thus fulfilling this trope. |

Harry Potter: Death, in the tale of the Three Brothers in The Tales of Beedle the Bard, pretends to congratulate the three brothers for cheating death, and rewards them, with full intention of having the rewards lead them back to Death. Only the youngest brother sees through the ruse and has his reward tailored specifically to prevent Death doing this to him. The other brothers are not so lucky. Ron Weasley is the youngest of six brothers and is best friend of The Hero. Notable because the other two members (Harry and Hermione) of the lead trio are only children; Ron is the only one of them to have siblings. And the only Weasley child younger than Ron — as well as the only daughter — Ginny is the one who Harry falls in love with and marries. |

Downplayed in a comic-only adventure of The Amazing Chan and the Chan Clan. Youngest child Scooter solves the mystery and his older brother Henry comments that he "always lucks out", but he and the rest of the older kids aren't portrayed as evil or boring, only having caught the Distress Ball (they were being suspended mid-air from the top of a stage). | |

In the Metal Gear series: The series as a whole is an inversion. Solid Snake, the only one of the Les Enfant Terribles clones to have a decent ending, is either the eldest or second-born of the clones (depending on whether Liquid, his twin, was born first or not). This trope was actually referenced in an optional radio conversation with Zero in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, where he notes the coincidence of Naked Snake and Major Raikov technically sharing the same name ("Ivan," Raikov's first name, is Slavic for "John" or "Jack," which is Naked Snake's name). |

Stefan Salvatore in The Vampire Diaries. Unlike Damon, who was The Unfavorite since childhood, Stefan, who is the youngest child of the Salvatore family, was the favoured child by not only his father, but by EVERYONE. Although Damon was supposed to be the heir to the Salvatore inheritance because he is the eldest child, Giuseppe planned on giving the inheritance to Stefan instead of Damon, showing the strong favouritism that he had for his youngest son over his eldest son. | |

Dragon Age: Origins The royal family of Orzammar has a potential subversion of this with Prince Bhelen. He coordinates the death of his oldest sibling and causes his other brother/sister to get exiled for it, all so Bhelen can become heir to his father's throne. The subversion comes in with the fact that the main character (who ironically could also be the middle sibling who got exiled) can decide to prevent him from getting the throne. Played straight in the Human Noble Origin, where the younger son/daughter (the player character) gets left behind guarding the castle while father and older brother set off to war, and eventually ends up saving the world, accumulating riches and honors, and potentially marrying the king or queen as well, while the father dies and the older brother spends the whole story "missing in action"... |

Robin and his father had bad blood because after his mother died, his widowed father took up with a peasant woman for companionship. Robin never forgave his father (while he was alive), for this perceived betrayal of his mother's memory even after he left the peasant woman. Robin never even knew that he had a half-brother who got left in the lurch in the process. | |

There's also the fact that Butter rang the bell and helped Mrs. Raccoon avoid a boating accident, and that she befriended the lightning bugs that helped the Otter family get home when it was otherwise too foggy to see. For a 2-year-old, she's very resourceful. | |

Deconstructed in Avatar: The Last Airbender, at first Azula is Always Someone Better for Zuko; a prodigy firebender, a military strategist, and flawless manipulator. Zuko, while no slouch, isn't as good of a firebender, and his held back too much by his own sense of honor to compete in the cutthroat realm of Fire Nation politics and warfare. Eventually, Zuko even turns against his father and country on the eve of victory to aid the enemy in the war, while Azula is actually handed her father's position as leader of the Fire Nation. ..... At which point it flips. Once Azula peaks, she finds that she's driven away her friends, that she pushed away her Mom when she was young, and that her Dad doesn't love her as much as she thought, leading to a mental breakdown. Meanwhile, the hardships and failures Zuko suffered as the "loser" child have turned him into a better person who's surrounded by people who love and trust him, and they help him dethrone Azula and lead the Fire Nation into an era of peace. | |

In The Lord of the Winds, a tundra village is being threatened by harsh winds, and a father with three daughters surmises that Lord Kotura of the Winds is angered and can only be appeased with a wife. He sends his eldest daughter to Lord Kotura's dwelling with very specific instructions. She ignores every single one, and then when she finally gets to Lord Kotura's dwelling, she also ignores his instructions; and in the end Lord Kotura angrily casts her out of his home to freeze to death in the snow. The winds grow stronger, and the father sends out his second daughter. The exact same thing happens, and when the winds grow harsher once again, the father sends out his youngest daughter, who follows his and Lord Kotura's instructions to a T. Greatly pleased, Lord Kotura makes her his wife, the winds die down, and the village is saved. | |

Zig-zagged in Frozen II: Princess Anna ultimately ends up replacing her older sister Elsa as Queen of Arendelle, but only because Elsa decides to Abdicate the Throne, because she wants to move to the Enchanted Forest instead. The ending is Elsa's ideal, not Anna's, but both do end up happy, Anna with the chance to help her beloved community and Elsa with the chance to enjoy unbridled freedom. |

Inverted in Pride and Prejudice where the youngest daughter Lydia is a Bratty Half-Pint and the least sympathetic of the Bennets. Additionally it's the two older sisters who are the protagonists and most sympathetically-portrayed. But played straight, with Georgiana Darcy, who is far kinder and sweeter than her Tsundere of an older brother, albeit downplayed due to him turning out to be a good man nevertheless and the protagonist's Love Interest. Again inverted with the Bingleys, where the eldest Charles is the nice one — and the two younger daughters Caroline and Louisa are rude and snobby. | |

Xenoblade Chronicles 1: Melia is the second and youngest child of the emperor, born to his (officially recognized) mistress. She's also a half-Homs in a culture where such people are discriminated against. She still ends up in charge, after her father is murdered and her beloved older half-brother gets transformed into a Telethia and goes on a rampage. Her brother in fact was the first one advocating for Melia's ascension to the throne, in no small part due to the fact that half-Homs cannot be turned into Telethia (which is why the policy of having a Homs mistress existed in the first place) and he knew that Zanza would force a mass transformation soon. | |

One episode of The Loud House focuses on the siblings making a bet on who can go the longest without condescending to their own habits. When the girls all lose in the end, Lincoln brags about his supposed victory and begins reading a comic book in his underwear. His celebration, however, is cut short when he forgets that Lily, the baby of the family, didn't capitulate to her habit (which was crying), causing Lincoln to lose the bet and Lily declared the winner. | |

Downplayed in that the major factor of them falling in love was that Jo rejected his proposal, which spurred him to travel out of the country to recover from the heartbreak. On his vacation, he ended up crossing paths with Amy in Europe, and they were able to become closer. Jo also eventually finds success as a professional author, while Amy gives up her dream of becoming a professional artist, although she continues her art as a hobby. | |

A Song of Ice and Fire: Daenerys Targaryen is the youngest of three children born to Aerys II to survive infancy. The oldest child, Rhaegar, showed the signs of a successful person, but he died before inheriting the throne. The middle child, Viserys, grew up in poverty and died before achieving anything worthwhile. Meanwhile, Daenerys has three dragons, an army of former slave soldiers, and a city under her belt, and is set to claim the Iron Throne and rule the Seven Kingdoms as queen. Subverted with Renly Baratheon, the third of the Baratheon brothers. After his oldest brother King Robert dies he tries to usurp the throne from his "nephew". The second brother Stannis also claims the throne, knowing the Queen's children are illegitimate making him the rightful heir. Renly has the largest army of the competing kings and looks set to defeat Stannis. However he is killed by a shadow created by the Priestess Melisandre. The backstory has Aegon V Targaryen, known as Aegon the Unlikely, as he was the fourth son of a fourth son so unlikely to become King. However when his father Maekar I Targaryen died two others were passed over in the line in favour of Aegon. Before that his older brother Aemon was offered the crown, but refused, being a Maester, and joined the Night's Watch so they couldn't be used to usurp their brother. Their father Maekar counts, being a fourth son himself. Viserys II Targaryen was the youngest of seven children, and ended up being the only one to pass the Iron Throne to his descendants for more than a generation. With few exceptions,note Brown Ben Plumm and Rennifer Longwaters, both of whom claim to have the "blood of the dragon", are descended from Aegon III, Viserys II's older brother. all Targaryens today, both legitimate or otherwise, are descended from him. Tyrion Lannister is the youngest of Tywin's three children, and is the one who inherits his shrewdness in political games the most (Cersei, despite her constant bragging, sucks at the whole thing, while Jaime, though plenty of intelligent, is clearly outclassed by Tyrion). However, because he is a dwarf, and his mother died giving birth to him, he is treated as a Black Sheep by his father, who practically disinherited him since the day he was born, even though he is the person best suited to succeed him as Lord of Casterly Rock. |

Zigzagged in One Piece. Of the three Boa sisters, the smallest one, Hancock, is the most beautiful; not only is she considered the World's Most Beautiful Woman In-Universe, but she even has a Devil Fruit that weaponizes her beauty, whereas her sisters consist of a Butter Face and a Brawn Hilda, both of whom have the same Devil Fruit power: to transform into a more powerful Snake People form, which makes them more monstrous. However, the trope is inverted in that Hancock is the eldest of the three sisters, whilst Marigold — the biggest and ugliest of the siblings — is the youngest. | |

In "The Dancing Water, the Singing Apple, and the Speaking Bird", it is the youngest daughter who promises to have marvelous children and marries the king. This is the usual form of this tale, but The Brothers Grimm "The Three Little Birds" features the oldest as the heroine. (Though, of her children, it is the youngest who successfully finds and rescues her and her elder brothers.) | |

The Bible: A recurring thing throughout the Book of Genesis, where a heroic younger brother quarrels with their older (half-)brother(s). First there's Cain and Abel, the first siblings ever, then Ishmael and Isaacnote (though they actually get younger brothers much later) and Isaac's sons Esau and Jacob. Played With when we come to Jacob's sons: the ten oldest are antagonistic (at first) with Joseph, who, along with the twelfth son Benjamin, are their dad's favorites. Interestingly, while their mom was Jacob's favorite wife, the Bible only cites being "sons of Jacob's old age" as a reason for preferential treatment. Joseph's own children also get blessed counter to the cultural expectation, though this is not too big of a surprise considering Jacob is the youngest. (Joseph thought Jacob was making a mistake, but Jacob knows what he's doing and crosses his arms so that the Right Hand of Blessing goes to the younger son.) It's actually kind of subverted in the long run. While Joseph and Benjamin were Jacob's favorite sons and the former was blessed to have two lineages by virtue of having two sons (Manasseh and Ephraim), they did not leave much of a mark after the destruction of Solomon's Temple. Both the tribes of Manasseh and Ephraim ceased to exist after the Assyrian invasion, while the Tribe of Benjamin survived the Assyrian invasion but only as a junior partner in the Kingdom of Judah and disappeared after the Babylonian captivity. Meanwhile, the tribe descended from Levi, Jacob's third son, begot Moses and Aaron (and by extension the priestly class), while the tribe descended from Judah, Jacob's fourth son, was the one that all Jews today claim as their ancestor. As for Judah, his eldest two sons are divinely struck down for their misdeeds, the third fades into obscurity, and finally he fathers twin boys, Perez and Zerah, with his erstwhile daughter-in-law. Zerah is technically older, as the first to get a hand out of the womb, but then Perez manages to push ahead of him (doing heel-clinging grandpa Jacob one better). Perez is the one who becomes the ancestor of Boaz and then David. Amram of the Levi tribe in Egypt had three children: daughter Miriam and two sons, Aaron and Moses, four and seven years younger than Miriam, respectively. Guess who is remembered as the most badass prophet of the Old Testament. Though to be fair, all three of them hold pretty important positions in the tradition. King David is also an example; he was the youngest of eight brothers, yet God had Samuel pass over all seven of his older brothers before anointing him. And he was succeeded by his youngest son Solomon. In the parable of the Prodigal Son, the younger son callously asks for his share of the inheritance, runs away from home to seek adventure, and squanders it all on wasteful living, only to be welcomed back with open arms when he decides to slink home. The older son is not pleased about this, but the attempt to Calling the Old Man Out backfires: Dad points out that the older son has the lion's share of the estate, so can't he be happy that his little brother came back alive? (The point of the parable is that both sons were in need of serious attitude adjustment.) Jesus called a couple of pairs of brothers to be His Apostles: Andrew & Peter and James & John. Peter and John were both the younger of the two, and they were, respectively, the first Pope and the only Apostle to die of natural causes, rather than martyrdom. Also John was the youngest of the Apostles and that Jesus entrusted to him the care of His mother. From the Apocrypha, we have the Archangels Michael and Lucifer. Lucifer was the first angel, born to the highest of glories in all Heaven. After his revolt and fall, Michael inherited his elder brother's responsibilities and place of favor in their father's angelic court. |

"Cinderella" is a classic example (though her older sisters are stepsisters rather than blood relatives). The earliest known version of the story, "Yeh-Shen", is actually an inversion, with Yeh-Shen being the elder daughter and her stepmother's daughter (her wicked half-sister) being the younger one. Many Asian variants of the story follow suit by making Cinderella the elder daughter, such as the Korean Kongwi and Patjwi, the Vietnamese Tam and Cam, and the Japanese "Benizara and Kakezara." One Mongolian version, Saja and Bohu toys with this trope by making Cinderella's mother and stepmother sisters. The good Saja is the daughter of the dead younger sister and the evil Bohu is the daughter of the surviving elder sister. That said, the story never divulges if Saja or Bohu is the older or younger girl (and they are cousins rather than sisters.) The Grimm tale, "One-Eye, Two-Eyes, Three-Eyes," is a rare Cinderella variant where the middle-child is the heroine. A witch has three daughters, the eldest is a cyclops and the youngest has three eyes. The middle-daughter not only has two eyes like any other mortal, but is very beautiful, and is abused by her cruel mother and sisters until she is rescued by a prince. |

In Touhou Project, the younger sister is usually stronger than the older one, as admitted by ZUN himself. In Touhou Koumakyou ~ the Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, the Superboss is Flandre Scarlet, the younger sister of Remilia Scarlet, the Final Boss. Flandre's immense power and emotional as well as mental instability has forced Remilia to lock her in the basement for almost five hundred years. In Touhou Kaeidzuka ~ Phantasmagoria of Flower View: All three Prismriver Sisters are playable. However, only Lyrica, the youngest, gets a story mode. According to their backstory, there were originally four Prismriver Sisters. After their father's death, the sisters went their separate ways. However, the youngest, Layla Prismriver, created poltergeists in the form of her sisters, which are now the current Prismriver Sisters. The original four have died, but the poltergeists still exist today. A fairly minor case in Touhou Fuujinroku ~ Mountain of Faith; Minoriko Aki is the Stage 1 boss, while her older sister Shizuha Aki serves as the midboss. In Touhou Chireiden ~ Subterranean Animism, Satori Komeiji is the Stage 4 boss. Her younger sister Koishi is the Superboss. Koishi herself even straight out states that her sister never really was all that good at fighting. |

The Taming of the Shrew by Willie "Bubba" Shakespeare also zig-zags the trope. It starts off a straight example. The youngest daughter of the family was the one who was beautiful, desired, and had beaus swarming like flies. Much of the drama comes because the other, bitchy one had to marry first. It gets more complicated as the play goes on. By the end, the younger daughter enslaved her husband, while the older one submitted to hers. The older one is the focus and ultimately it's implied she is meant to be the more sympathetic one. | |

In "Bearskin", the youngest daughter agrees to marry the hero while he is filthy, hairy, and wearing a bearskin. Other variants of this type of fairy tale include "Don Giovanni de la Fortuna," "The Soldier and the Bad Man," "The Road to Hell" (where she actively cleans him up), "The Reward of Kindness," "The Devil As Partner" and "Never Wash." Some versions of the story, however, have it that it's the middle daughter who consents to be his bride. | |

This trope was actually referenced in an optional radio conversation with Zero in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, where he notes the coincidence of Naked Snake and Major Raikov technically sharing the same name ("Ivan," Raikov's first name, is Slavic for "John" or "Jack," which is Naked Snake's name). | |

In "Vasilissa the Beautiful", Vasilissa is the youngest sister and the only one popular with the men in town, and the Wicked Stepmother justifies rejecting all of Vasilissa's suitors on the grounds that her stepsisters are older than she is. | |

In the Tales from the Cryptkeeper episode "The Sleeping Beauty," Prince Charmless Chuck spends most of the episode pushing around his younger (by "ten lousy seconds") twin brother Melvin. Naturally, Melvin gets the girl, and Chuck gets turned into a vampire, which means he can no longer admire himself in the mirror. "Chuck (and Melvin) and the Bean-Stalker" likewise ends well for Melvin and badly for Chuck. | |

In Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Manny has this with Parental Favoritism, in that Manny winds up getting treated much better than his siblings. It's implied that this is a bit of a cyclical matter, as Greg used to enjoy a similarly privileged position right until Manny was born. | |

In Kill la Kill, Soichiro Kiryuin's legacy to his daughter Satsuki is a bit lackluster. The experiments performed on her as a child were unable to imbue her with the power of the life fibers since she was too old when they attempted it, her kamui Junketsu (called her "wedding dress") attempts to devour her every time she wears it and strains her immensely to wear it for long, and her sword Bakuzan is able to cut life fibers but is not able to stop them from simply regenerating. His later efforts for his younger daughter Ryuko, under the guise of Isshin Matoi built up on this and are a step up in every way possible; the improved experiments made Ryuko a life fiber hybrid which gave her the power to face her mother Ragyo, and also resulted in her kamui Senketsu being made from a better process that made him safer to wear and able to synchronize with humans for greater power, and devised a better weapon in the Scissor Blade, which instead of one blade was two that could cut from both sides simultaneously and kill life fibers without letting them regenerate. | |

Not only is Ramza from Final Fantasy Tactics the youngest of three brothers, he's also half-brother to Zalbag and Dycedarg. And yet he is the most noble among House Beoulve. His younger sister Alma, the true youngest of the family, spends most of the plot as the Damsel in Distress, but she still rejects Bloody Angel Altima from pulling a Grand Theft Me. | |

In Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Sylvain became the heir to House Gautier due to being born with a Crest which his older brother Miklan lacked. Deconstructed in that Sylvain doesn't think he's won anything: Not only did this end up making Miklan jealous to the point of wanting to murder him for taking what he viewed as should have been his, Sylvain has been treated as more an object to be used for his family's honor than anything and he's been left feeling like none of the girls interested in him want him rather than the benefits of marrying nobility and bearing a "Crest baby." | |

A recurring thing throughout the Book of Genesis, where a heroic younger brother quarrels with their older (half-)brother(s). First there's Cain and Abel, the first siblings ever, then Ishmael and Isaacnote (though they actually get younger brothers much later) and Isaac's sons Esau and Jacob. | |

In Touhou Kaeidzuka ~ Phantasmagoria of Flower View: All three Prismriver Sisters are playable. However, only Lyrica, the youngest, gets a story mode. According to their backstory, there were originally four Prismriver Sisters. After their father's death, the sisters went their separate ways. However, the youngest, Layla Prismriver, created poltergeists in the form of her sisters, which are now the current Prismriver Sisters. The original four have died, but the poltergeists still exist today. |

Deconstructed in Ace Attorney with Morgan and Misty Fey. In the Fey clan, the older sister typically has more spiritual power and inherits the title of Kurain Master, while the younger sister becomes a part of the branch family. However, Misty Fey becomes an example of this trope by inheriting the Master title and beating out her big sis Morgan in everything spiritual. Morgan doesn't exactly take this in stride; she becomes intensely resentful and concocts several twisted plans to kill Misty's daughter so Morgan's own young daughter can reclaim the title of Master. | |

"The Twelve Dancing Princesses", depending on the version: The earliest known version, published by the Brothers Grimm, contains a inversion. The hero, a soldier, follows the eponymous princesses through a magical landscape while wearing an invisibility cloak. Only the youngest senses that something's amiss, while the eldest keeps telling her to shut up and stop complaining. At the end, when offered a princess to marry, the soldier announces, "I'm not as young as I used to be, so I'll take the eldest." In some variants, like the one collected by Andrew Lang in The Red Fairy Book and the one collected by Alexander Afanasyev in Russian Folk-Tales, the hero marries the youngest. In others, the hero says "All your daughters have proven themselves not to be trusted. I'm not going to take any one of them!" |

Einar, who has been sent away with a single ship, not only defeats the vikings, but turns out a capable leader who rules a long time. Moreover, it is Einar who eventually avenges the killing of his father, not one of Rognvald's three older, legitimate sons. | |

Deconstructed with the Kongo Brothers of Eyeshield 21. Although they're twins, the elder brother is completely overshadowed by his younger brother's incredible talent. As a result, the younger twin is very arrogant and treats his elder brother (and everyone else) coldly, while the elder twin's self esteem is completely crushed and feels his only purpose is to help his younger brother. | |

In It's a Wonderful Life, it initially appears to be in full force; while George stuck in a dead end job and is kept out of the army by the fact that he's deaf in one ear, his younger brother Harry gets a successful job and later goes to war and saves a ship of sailors, becoming acclaimed for his heroism. But the Wonderful Life reveal is that without George's having saved Harry's life when they were young, all those sailors would have drowned when the ship was sunk; and Harry, on hearing that George is in trouble, drops everything — including a meeting with President Harry Truman to congratulate him on his heroism — to run to his aid. The flashbacks also show that the only reason Harry became a success was because of the sacrifices George made. Harry only went to college because George chose to stay home and run the Savings and Loan instead of going himself and when Harry turned down a job offer from his father-in-law so he could take over for George like he promised, George made him take the job. At the very end, it's shown that Harry considers George the real successful one because of the loyalty the townspeople have towards George for everything he's done to help them. | |
