7Yk who deserves more appreciation? Anna.
It's not like people don't recognize that Anna is great but she's just overshadowed by Elsa.
Everyone's like "Elsa is so cool, wow she's so hot, she's awesome, she saved her kingdom"
Yeah and she's the one that put it in danger in the first place. Well not in the second movie but you get it.
Anna was willing to die for her sister, even after it's her fault Anna's on the verge of death, which is more than I can say for Elsa, who TRIED TO KILL ANNA JUST BECAUSE SHE WANTED TO TAKE HER BACK TO IDK HOW TO SPELL THE NAME OF THEIR KINGDOM. WHAT A GOOD SISTER RIGHT GUYS, THE BEST.
Elsa teaches people that running away from your problems is okay and totally won't cause mental health issues later on in life., which is just a lie.
Anna teaches kids, don't marry people you just met, you can't hate someone because of an accident, true love can mean anything, not necessarily a romantic relationship and a lot more.
Elsa pushes people away and gets away with it like it's not a problem. It is.
Anna was brave enough to, only a while after the death of people she cared about a lot, get up and take the steps to fix what her grandfather had done. She got a rock giant to chase her while throwing rocks at her and she was scared as shit but she kept going so she could fix the issue because all of that was more important than anything else. Even if the kingdom would be destroyed, she did what she needed to do to save it from a probably much worse fate and also save the people stuck in that forest place with no way out and no one else able to come in. Keep in mind, while she did all this, she was grieving but she was more concerned for her people, the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.
Then Elsa deus ex machina'd and rose from the dead to save the kingdom because it's Disney and we need to end it on a perfect happy-go-lucky note.
Anna did everything and more, both in the first and second movies.
Sure, Elsa did stuff to, for example, she died in order to figure out how to save her kingdom. She sacrificed her life for her people. She also stopped a giant wave from destroying the kingdom... that's it. That's everything.
Anna rode for who knows how long in a freezing cold snow just to get to Elsa in order to try to help her. Everyone else wanted to kill Elsa because they thought she was a monster but Anna is like "Monster, bitch no, that's my sister, and I'm gonna save her, and you're all gonna be okay with it cause I'm technically the queen while she's gone so deal with it"
Anna gave Elsa more than she deserved, after Elsa emotionally abandoned Anna most of their life and also almost killed Anna how many times now, Anna still cared about her sister and helped her even if she really didn't deserve it.
And no don't go whining about "but Elsa was dealing with this and Elsa did that and blah blah blah" NO your problems are not an excuse to be an asshole. Elsa never said sorry to Anna. I can't count a single sorry for all the pain she caused in the whole two movies.
Listen, I get it okay, but imo Anna is just so much better than Elsa.
But of course you can like whoever you want I'm just saying.
