THE BOBA SISTERS

This includes biologically, legally, and surrogate 💖

Here we go!!

10.) Vi and Jinx (Arcane)

Biological sisters

The tragic pairing from the Netflix series, the two are at the bottom bc they have some issues that still need to be worked out.

Nevertheless, I love this pairing bc it is so apparent how much they care for each other. Vi went to great lengths to try and find her sister. Jinx wants her sister to accept her for who she is. Even though Vi already says that she does, the communication is lacking. Also, jinx is kinda.. cuckoo at the moment. I’m rooting for them anyway though 💖

9.) Alberto and Giulia (Luca)

Surrogate siblings

This is basically canon as of Ciao Alberto since Massimo takes Alberto in and the two officially declare a surrogate father/son relationship.

Despite this, the movie itself has these two acting very sibling esque. The vibes that they give off scream annoying sibling energy. With Giulia being the sister that constantly teases her brother about his crush (she knew, you can’t tell me she didn’t) as well as being helpful and caring towards each other. Although they didn’t get off to the best start, it’s clear by the end that they care for each other. If we get anymore Luca products, I hope to see their relationship explored even further 💖

8.) Cory and Shawn (Boy Meets World)

Surrogate brothers

This is hinted at multiple times throughout the series. Shawn says at least twice that I can remember of Cory being like the brother he never had and calling him family. As well as Shawn canonically being the uncle to Cory and Topanga’s kids in Girl Meets World.

I love these two so much. They have such a wonderful friendship that I remember fangirling over while watching the series. The adventures they go on, watching them grow up and becoming a permanent part of each other’s lives, protecting each other. This was easily one of the best relationships in the show in my opinion 💖

7.) Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo

(My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic)

Surrogate sisters

Confirmed as of “Sleepless in Ponyville,” Rainbow Dash agrees to take Scootaloo under her wing after the young pony confronts her about wanting her to become like her big sister. Afterwards the two establishing this exact relationship by competing in the sisterhooves social together, scootaloo canonically calling Rainbow her sister figure, and even Rainbow herself calling herself Scootaloo’s big sister.

The dynamic between these two is both chaotic and fluffy. Rainbow Dash is the pony that Scootaloo looks up to the most and always looks to her for advice and comfort. As the seasons progress we see an overprotective side to RD come out as well, hammering in the idea that she views the young filly as her little sister 💕

6.) Anne and Sprig (Amphibia)

Surrogate siblings

Confirmed multiple times throughout the series, especially in which Anne calls the plantars family, sprig literally asking if he can call Anne’s parents mom and dad, and him also desperately trying to be a part of her family (and succeeding)

Even before this established familial relationship, it is very clear that the dynamic between the two is that of brother and sister. They go so far as to show that the two can’t even live together in the same room bc they drive each other insane. Anne is extremely protective of sprig as well literally going SUPER SAIYAN when he’s tossed out a window. Sprig also goes out of his way to make Anne feel special, giving her gifts and making sure she knows that she’s his best friend. The two also share a lot of heartfelt moments together, showcasing the absolute love they have for each other 💖

5.) Luz and King (The Owl House)

Surrogate siblings

Confirmed multiple times throughout the series In which king is LEGALLY adopted by Eda, who canonically views Luz as a daughter figure.

This relationship is very similar to Anne and sprig in the fact that they are established as having sibling like vibes even before the surrogate family feelings are established. Luz and king share adventures together, luz is overprotective of king, king is protective of his friendship with Luz to the point of territorial jealousy, and they even share inside jokes with one another. But above all, they care about each other very much. 💕

4.) Kenny and Karen (South Park)

Biological siblings

EASILY the best familial relationship in South Park, Kenny is canonically super protective of his little sister, both as himself and as his superhero persona, Mysterion.

Although karen is unaware that mysterion is Kenny, he protects her even as himself, especially in episodes such as “The City Part of Town” where Kenny takes a job to try and earn money, only to spend the little that he gets on a doll for Karen, just so she can feel love and security. And even in the beginning of the episode “the poor kid” where it’s shown her clinging onto Kenny as they are being taken away from their white trash parents. Although mysterion is seen to actually kick ass of those that mess with her, the love he feels for his sister is aspiring. Even with Karen not being aware her guardian Angel is her favorite older brother (though it may be confirmed through the post covid special that she does eventually find out) 💗

3.) Yang and Ruby (RWBY)

Biological/Legal Sisters

I put them down as either bc there is debate in the fandom of whether they are blood related due to Ruby looking not that much like their dad. Either way, that is still the man that raised them and even Yang herself views ruby’s biological mom as her own. So it is safe to say that if not related, for sure adopted 💖

Yang and Ruby have an amazing sisterly relationship throughout the series. Yang is always cheering for her little sister and is super protective of her, going after pretty much anyone that tries to hurt her. Even with the events after the fall of beacon and yangs ptsd, she eventually goes after her sister and joins her on their quest to retrieve the relics. The two have been through a lot together from losing their mom to the fall of beacon to personal issues. But they have managed to make it through it all and continue to be one of the best sister duos in animation 💖

2.) Anna and Elsa (Frozen)

Biological sisters

There was debate for a while whether or not these two were biologically related or not. But the second movie confirms that they are. Even if they weren’t, that doesn’t change the fact that they grew up and view each other as sisters

Anna and Elsa have been through absolute hell and back. From being isolated most of her life to losing her parents to running away, Elsa has always tried to do what she felt was going to keep Anna safe. In the end though, it’s the love they have for each other that breaks her from her prison of resentment and isolation. Even the second movie establishes that their relationship will remain strong even at a further distance from each other. And losing each other is something that they just simply cannot endure. I love these two with every fiber of my being 💕💕

And the #1 favorite sibling pairing of mine, coming as a surprise to absolutely no one… 😂

1.) Natasha and Yelena (Black Widow 2021)

Legal/surrogate sisters

Again, adding both legal and surrogate bc we never get confirmation as to whether the red room mission adoption is legalized. It is implied that the marriage itself between the parents are, but since the girls had to go undercover with their identities, we never confirm whether the adoption is technically legal or not.

This does not change the fact that these two view each other as sisters though. Natasha only knows yelena for 3 years before they are both sent to the red room. And in that short time, she grows a FIERCE protectiveness towards her. This applies even after 21 years where it’s seen throughout the movie how immensely protective she is. Although she denies the familial connection at first, this is only because of the immense guilt that she feels for having left Yelena to suffer in the red room alone. She canonically states that she should’ve come back for her before finally revealing that she felt the sisterly connection as well, and still does. It is a shame we only got to see them in one movie, but that was enough to show us how deep the love between these two truly goes. While it is going to be incredibly difficult to have to watch Yelena go through the grieving process (as we have already seen in Hawkeye) it will be nice to see even more of how much this sister relationship means to her. And who knows, maybe we’ll be pleasantly surprised in the future of the mcu. Nevertheless, the teasing, the protectiveness, the affection, and the adoration is enough to put these two in the number 1 spot for favorite sibling pairing 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

So there ya have it! This is of course my personal opinion and this by far is not the whole list. The media is FULL of amazing sibling/sibling like relationships and I’d be here forever if I talked about all of them. 💖💖
