Eddy's Brother is the overarching antagonist of the Cartoon Network original series Ed, Edd n Eddy and the main antagonist of its finale film Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show.

He is the older and abusive brother of one of the three main protagonists, Eddy (leader of the Eds). Throughout the series, Eddy always speaks about him and boasts how popular and funny his brother is. However, when he finally appears onscreen, it's soon revealed that Eddy's Brother is not the amazing brother from whom Eddy spoke about, but a merciless and cruel bully who enjoys hurting kids, especially his own younger brother Eddy. Following his defeat, it's finally revealed that his brother is the whole reason why Eddy had been behaving like a total jerk throughout the series.

He was voiced by Terry Klassen, whom also voiced Babidi and Bibidi in the Ocean dub of Dragon Ball Z, and Tusky Husky from Krypto the Superdog.

Description[]

He has a deep, smooth voice and a room that Eddy hopes to inherit and reside in. His room is complete with a car and all kinds of memorabilia and strange items. For example, he owns a pet snake, a giant dusty taxidermy camel, a brick-covered window, a bed that folds-up into the fridge, and a (now broken) trophy (unknown for what, but it might be chewing ice cubes, because Eddy said before Ed saw the trophy that he was a whiz at chewing ice cubes); however, in Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show, it is seen on the floor unbroken. He also created an oversized stink bomb called the El Mongo Stink Bomb.

He is probably over 19 as he lives on his own in a trailer and looks as though he has finished maturing. He may have a kinship with the Kanker Sisters, as he was able to set Eddy up to go to their trailer for a prank, but this is unlikely because the Kankers moved in after Eddy's brother was gone. He also tries to scam everyone similar to Eddy, but much more successfully. His room is guarded by a chained lock, pieces of wood nailed to the wall and a falling safe, along with the fact that it was camouflaged to blend in with the rest of the wall.

The door to his room is hidden behind wallpaper for some reason. In some of the early seasons, many fans didn't think he was real until his first actual appearance.

Appearance[]

Eddy's Brother has a strong resemblance to his brother. He wears a red plaid jacket and a tweed cap. He also has some hairs on his rather large chin and he also has three hairs sticking out from the back of his head. He resides in the coastal theme park Mondo A-Go Go in a trailer (Eddy's Brother's Trailer).

Biography[]

He has his first and only appearance in Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show. He is one of the few people who Kevin probably fears, because of his strength and due to the stories Kevin has heard about him.

Throughout the movie, the Eds reaching him is their set goal after what Eddy calls his greatest scam goes very, very horribly wrong, resulting in the total destruction of the lane and severely injuring many of the other kids in the Cul-de-Sac, who attempt to catch the Eds and get their revenge before they can reach him, as to keep themselves out of danger. When reached, Eddy's brother decided to help and offer protection, however, he quickly demanded that he and Eddy "play uncle" first and twisted Eddy's leg around painfully.

Edd was horrified while the Kankers became angered- the other kids also seemed upset (especially Ed, who was too horror stricken to do much of anything): after Eddy's Brother began to violently smash Eddy against the door of his trailer (shown in a very violent light, even for the show's cartoonish standards), Edd decided to confront him, only to be beaten by the much larger man.

This made Ed even more horrified and the other children rose against Eddy's Brother in an effort to protect Eddy- however, he was far too strong for them to take down without risk of injury. Luckily, Ed (in a rare moment of creativeness) finally had enough and pulled out one of the bolts holding the door to the trailer.

The door proceeded to catapult out and slammed into Eddy's Brother face, knocking the brute out and causing him to cry "uncle" as he passed out.

It is then revealed that Eddy's entire attitude was made simply to make others like him, namely his brother, and his brother treating him so coldly after so long left Eddy devastated enough to show a very rare sign of humiliation and self-pity. In other words, it turns out that all of Eddy's selfish and mean traits were all a mask, only acting like his brother just to earn his brother's respect and be friends with everyone; which had the opposite effect and nearly lost his dear best friends because of his behavior. His true self is a sad, misunderstood and self-hating kid who yearned love and respect and was abused and mistreated his entire life. This was enough to give him everyone's sympathy and he and the other Eds are invited over Kevin's house for jawbreakers.

While the other kids celebrated their victory, the Kanker Sisters dragged Eddy's Brother away to an unknown fate (Lee stating that the first one inside got to give him "mouth-to-mouth"), likely implying that they are going to sexually harass him.

Personality[]

There have been clues about Eddy's older brother throughout the show, showing him to be somewhere on the borderline of prankster and sociopath: in season one's "Fool on the Ed", we learn that Eddy's brother showed him how to make the special-recipe for the El Mongo Stink Bomb "before he went away" and, in season two, there's a glimpse of a picture on Eddy's wall- 2 boyish silhouettes, one bigger than the other. The biggest clue lies in the episode "Ed in a Halfshell", where Eddy sets himself the task of making Jimmy his protégé and it is learned that Eddy was himself molded in just this way by his older brother (thus leaving the Easter egg for the big revelation in the film).

Season three provides an abundance of brotherly details, starting with the episode "O-Ed Eleven" where we get to see hallowed ground- Eddy's brother's room. The decor is just as unique, yet much more bizarre than Eddy's room and gives hints towards how multifaceted he appears- from bouzouki playing to bricklaying, from chewing ice cubes to ticking off Eddy, his big brother has a lot of unknown tales to be told. In the episode "An Ed is Born", Eddy gets a care package that shows just what his brother thinks of his baby brother (a giant package filled with baby-oriented material, from diapers to pacifiers, showing the lack of respect his brother has for him) and perhaps Eddy's "No more beating up little Eddy!" comment at the end gives us a pretty good idea of just where he got that knack for shoving around his pals. Although before this point we only see Eddy's thoughts of his brother, viewers do not get to see other kids reaction towards him until the infamous stir caused by rumors of his return in the episode "Ed, Pass it On". Not since the Kankers went on their latest hissy fit had the whole neighborhood been in such an uproar– Rolf digs a moat and knits a very special offertory vest to protect his chickens, Nazz gleams at the prospect of having someone as "rad" as Eddy's brother to hang with, and even the cynical jock Kevin disintegrates into a groveling coward as he ponders the implications of Big Brother's return (treating Eddy nicely and spoiling him with all his demands in order to keep from Eddy telling his brother of anything Kevin has caused).

In Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show], after Edd analyzes all of stories Eddy has told him of his brother, Edd comes to the conclusion that Eddy's Brother is a manipulative prankster and a slacker. However, during the end of the movie, Eddy's Brother's true colors are revealed. He makes fun of Edd by calling him Eddy's girlfriend and then proceeds to bully Eddy, continuing the stereotypical dysfunctional older brother/younger brother relationship, although it must be noted that his beatdown, though cartoonish in several ways, shows that he is a very sadistic person, playing "Uncle" only as an excuse to hurt his little brother, with signs of having severely injured Eddy. However, this ends when Ed pulls out a hinge that is barely holding onto Eddy's Brother's trailer and it ends up slamming him in the face (with Eddy still clinging to the door in fear) and knocking him out cold.

Despite all of this, the creators never made it clear how evil he is. On one hand, he has no qualms torturing his brother, but on the other, his actions are merely worse than most of the ones committed by the rest of the cast. Therefore, Eddy's Brother, while sadistic, isn't fleshed out enough to be more than a slightly crueler than a usual bully. That said, his abuse still clearly had an affect on Eddy as shown throughout the series. Furthermore, like many abusers, he lures his victims by pretending to be much nicer than he actually is.

Reception/Analysis[]

This character's use in the finale of Ed, Edd n Eddy has frequently been commended by fans as a fitting climax for the series, not only because the confrontation with him provides an in–story means for Eddy to be redeemed in the eyes of his peers, but because he is the first and only fully–seen, fully–voiced character in the series outside of the twelve regulars. Ed, Edd n Eddy, throughout its entire run, had notably never shown any additional human beings outside of the core cast, and saving doing so for the climax of its finale made the impact of Eddy's Brother, who furthermore had been "built up" in several previous episodes, all that greater.

Trivia[]

  • Eddy's brother is the most sadistic character in the series. As implied, the abuse he gave Eddy when he arrived at the amusement park is more or less what he had done to him his whole life, and he is proud of it. His abuse of Eddy disgusts all the children, including Kevin, Sarah, and the Kanker sisters. Another reason is that he lives in an amusement park, so this would suggest that he likes to torment children daily. It is Eddy's Brother who was responsible for Eddy's disgusting behavior, such as his greed, pride, and disrespect towards everyone, since he said he wanted to be cool like him, but soon changes to what may be his true self- a selfless, insecure, and misunderstood kid. If that's really so, then Eddy's Brother is the Greater-Scope Villain of the show.
  • He is the only real adult to ever fully appear in the show, unless one were to count Plank's parents. However, since Plank's parents are likely not even real, he's the first alive adult to play a major role.
    • In fact, he's the only character besides the cul-de-sac kids and the Kankers to appear on the show at all.
  • Rolf used to fear that Eddy's Brother wants to steal his chickens (he may have done this before he went away).
  • Kevin used to live in fear of Eddy's Brother, based on stories he's heard about him.
  • When Sarah and Jimmy impersonated Eddy's Brother, they wore a yellow shirt with 62 on the front and gray pants. Since Eddy's brother wore the same shirt and pants, it's likely that he has more than one of the same outfit and most likely left a set at home.
  • In "Ed, Pass it On", when Eddy's Brother (really Sarah and Jimmy) shows up in Eddy's room, Eddy gets unusually scared and pleads not to hurt him. This is another Easter egg for the film Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show.
  • Eddy's Brother is first mentioned in the episode "Nagged to Ed" when Eddy looks out at the Trailer Park and says "Reminds me of a postcard I sent my brother once", another Easter egg to the film, as Eddy's brother lives in a whale-shaped trailer.
  • Eddy's Brother may be lactose intolerant, according to Eddy in the episode "Ed, Pass it On", where he shows a sign of disbelief when Sarah and Jimmy (incognito as Eddy's brother) ask for a large ice cream.
  • He gave Eddy magazines as seen in the episode "The Luck of the Ed", but Ed lost them. It is unknown what magazines consist of, but they are implied to be pornography, considering his age.
  • Like most of the adults, Eddy's Brother's real name is never revealed in the movie, he was always referred to as "Eddy's Brother" or variations of this. Even in the credits he's credited as Eddy's Brother.
  • The Kanker Sisters may have a crush on Eddy's Brother evidenced by their comments near the end of the movie. Despite this, they dislike him due to him attacking their "boyfriends".
  • When he calls the kids "ankle-biters from the cul-de-sac", that may be a hint he is somewhere between seven and ten years older than Eddy.
  • In the movie, the broken trophy in Eddy's brother's room is not broken.
  • Eddy's brother wears a 62 shirt- Eddy was seen wearing a 62 shirt in gym at school before in the episode "Cool Hand Ed"; it could possibly be a hand-me-down from Eddy's brother.
  • In Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show, a glass in Eddy's Brother's room reads "Peach Creek Diner-2000 Best Eater", if this was in his room before he went away, it could mean that he visited during the year 2000 and forgot his trophy (as he could not have lived there during that year, as the show had begun in the year 1999).
  • It's unknown what job Eddy's brother has at Mondo A-Go Go. Though considering his pleasure for torturing kids, it's possible he chose this job to bully children. However, if that's the case, it's unknown why any child wouldn't report his abuse to either the authorities or other park employees, though it could be because they're too scared to speak.
  • There are numerous jerks of the cul-de-sac in Ed, Edd n Eddy (including Sarah and her spoiled nature, the bullying Kevin, Jimmy with his convoluted and conniving schemes, Plank and his mysterious cunning, the greedy Eddy, and of course the Kanker Sisters), but all characters have a moral conscience. Eddy's Brother, however, has no such trait, thus he is by far the worst of them all. He's also played seriously because of his abusive treatment of his brother.
  • Originally, in one of the alternate endings for the movie, it was planned to have Eddy's Brother getting arrested by the police, but it was cut because the writers weren't sure on how to build the scene without the physical appearance of the cops aside from what the children would tell them upon being interrogated.
  • It's implied that he tortured the other Cul-de-Sac children, leading them to despise him and Eddy. That said, Eddy did look up to him. However, that's likely because he was too young to understand that what his brother was doing was wrong.
  • Eddy's Brother is arguably the most hated antagonist due to his mistreatment towards Eddy and the kids. That said, while he's a sadist, it's unknown whether he knew he was hurting Eddy or doing so for his own sick pleasure. However, as mentioned above, there are various signs that he mistreated everyone even before the movie's events.
  • While his name is never said onscreen, writers of the series have claimed his name to be Matthew. However, it was never used in order to prevent him from being humanized to the viewers.
