We often see Anna acting like an older sister to Elsa, and this is exactly one of those moments, and it’s such an obvious moment. The anger in her voice… the sternness when she knows her sister is being reckless shows how much, especially in those three years, that Anna has taken care of Elsa. Being an older sister isn’t easy, but Anna seemingly takes that responsibility like it’s nothing.
Hearing her angry tone when she talks to Elsa like that shows how mature she’s gotten, perhaps, a lot more like their mother. Maybe she even acts a lot like their mother as well. Anna usually goofs around, but times like this makes me appreciate that a lot of the times, she is compassionate and shows a lot of care for Elsa, acting like a big sister, when she’s just three years younger than Elsa.
But not only does she have sternness. She’s so kind and caring for Elsa’s wellbeing that she even lets Elsa have a shoulder to lean on and fall asleep comfortably. We don’t see the scene, but Anna even hums her a song and runs her fingers up and down between Elsa’s eyes to make her fall asleep. That’s usually not something a younger sister would do, and the wonderful thing about this is that Anna puts a lot of love for her sister, making up for all the years that they’ve lost.
So it’s no wonder why Anna would act as an older sister - she wants Elsa to have everything that she’s never gotten, and if Elsa has gotten into dangerous situations alone, where’s that ever going to lead them?
And the fact that she seems so attuned to Elsa’s wellbeing, this is the first thing she asks. Anna knows her better than anyone else, but still needs confirmation from other people… but even other people don’t really understand Elsa the way she does.
Being the youngest of my two sisters, I find Anna’s reactions and actions to everything that Elsa has done makes me feel so warm in the heart because it’s rare to see a younger sibling show such compassion and responsibility for the older ones.
Anna is the definition of sisterly love.
