Best Big Brother Characters in Anime and Manga
There are a lot of them out there, some awesome and some…less awesome.Who is your favorite big brother from the anime/manga world?
Itachi is not only the best anime big brother but also the best anime character. He went through so much pain and sorrow just to protect his little brother. He decided to live as a traitor in place of hero and chose disgrace in the place of honor.
He is like a brother I've never imagined to be until I saw the episode to his death... He is not only the best brother but also a best man who died for his clan and his village... He is really a true Hero behind the Scenes... !
Like the good big brother he is, Itachi made a deal with the council to spare Sasuke's life. In the end he sacrificed everything to protect his brother and make him stronger.
What a legend he risked his life for sasuke and the village and cared about sasuke more than the whole village itself. Best character in Naruto.
Edward Elric, commonly nicknamed Ed, is a fictional character and the protagonist of the Fullmetal Alchemist manga series and its adaptations created by Hiromu Arakawa. Edward is amazing. He made a mistake that cost his brother everything: the ability to feel, the ability to eat, the ability to sleep, the ability to dream. Instead, Alphonse has to live in the body of an armor. He's treated like an adult and freaks people out. He has to spend his nights alone with his thoughts (and he did that for years). And all of that, Edward takes on his shoulders (let's be honest and say it was partially his fault). Edward strives, not to make his life better, but Alphonse's. Edward takes the guilt he feels and pushes forward to bring Alphonse back to normal. Edward cares deeply for Alphonse and would give up anything for him. Edward also believes in Alphonse and his abilities and doesn't try to hinder them. They argue and fight but they love each other so deeply. Edward is the best older brother. He made a mistake that costs Alphonse a lot, but he would sacrifice anything to fix it.
Edward Elric is the best bigger brother in anime, or in fiction all together. I love how in their youth, like toddler youth, Edward saw Alphonse as a threat, taking all of Trisha's love and time. After words from Hohenheim, he grew to realize that his job was to protect Alphonse. They bicker and fight, but Edward loves Alphonse. After their mother's death, Edward makes a terrible decision that costs Alphonse his soul, and now, Alphonse has to walk around in a suit of armor that can't feel anything physical, can't sleep, can't eat, can't dream. Edward feels so much guilt, but also determination to get his brother's back so that Alphonse doesn't have to spend all those nights alone anymore. Edward made mistakes that ruined his little brother's life, but he will give up his life to make it right.
Protagonist of the Fullmetal Alchemist series. After losing his right arm, left leg and his little brothers body due to a failed Human Transmutation attempt, Ed became the youngest State Alchemist in history to further his search for the legendary Philosopher's Stone, an item with which he hopes to restore his younger brother Alphonse.
His short-tempered and rude but you can't deny his love and care for Al. Besides humans aren't perfect and at least Ed does everything in his power and more to get his brothers body back and repent for his past mistakes.
He's been through Hell and back, all for the sake of his little brother. Even if it meant giving up his own life or all of his alchemic power, he would sacrifice just to see Al breathing again. Itachi and Ace are also exceptionally amazing brothers, but when I think of best anime brother, I instantly think Edward.
Portgas D. Ace, born as Gol D. Ace and nicknamed "Fire Fist" Ace, is a fictional character in the One Piece franchise created by Eiichiro Oda. Ace might not be the 'brother' of Luffy but he treats Luffy as his little brother along with Sabo.
