I'm curious of when this trope started. Anybody has any idea?
>>
>>143310239
The Conflict of Adam and Eve with Satan (also known as The Book of Adam and Eve) from the 6th-century. Lilith is a haughty bitch towards Eve for stealing her man (Adam) and often tries to demean or prank her at Eden Academy by embarrassing her in front of Adam and all the animals over whom he has dominion, giving her forbidden figs with the serpent she started hanging out with, or straight saying she has fat thighs. They even call her a succubus and everything for her actions

>>143310239
probably in the 70's-80's with more kids shows featuring kids or teens in a modern city/school setting. Probably started earlier than that but I feel like if you had a bratty rich girl character, it would have been the 80's which then carried on through the 90's and 00's. I feel like the 00's had the most bratty rich girl/mean girl/alpha bitch characters.
>>
>>143310239
Most likely started in live-action shows and then carried over to cartoons that parodied said shows.
>>
>>143310698

They were portrayed as bratty antagonists by the writers to characterize the feelings about upper-class people as entitled egotists and to contrast with the usually middle-class protagonists that are also inserts for the audience

Portia Gibbons from The Mighty B
Penelope Lang from Atomic Betty
Mindy from The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy
Sierra McCool from The Replacements
Mindy from Totally Spies
Bonnie Rockwaller from Kim Possible
Tiff and Brit Krust from My life as a teenage robot

Honestly, I kind of like him? He's at least entertaining and incredibly invested in the characters he's obsessed with. Though I do wish he'd find more talking points. Like maybe talk why he likes the girls he does along with his usual ramblings.

here's my personal collection of fav alpha bitches- from the alpha bitch self inserter herself, no less!

amity blight (the owl house)
andrea davenport (the ghost and molly mcgee)
angelica pickles (rugrats)
barbi minerva (dc super hero girls)
bonnie rockwaller (kim possible)
breakfast princess (adventure time) (loosely)
brittany and whittany biskit (littlest pet shop) (+school uniforms)
brittany wong (star vs the forces of evil)
callie mari (cleopatra in space)
cleopatra smith (clone high)
heather kasuga (total drama island)
julia clouds (total drama reboot)
lori loud (the loud house)
mandy hale (totally spies)
miss heed (villainous) (loosely)
pacifica northwest (gravity falls)
rachel wilson (the amazing world of gumball)
trixie tang (fairly odd parents)
verosika mayday (helluva boss) (loosely)

i think they all count under this archetype buuut i'm not totally sure on some, especially the looselys. then there's some shows where the spoiled brat is more of a protagonist than an antagonist/not mean enough like zee zatara and kendall perkins who i thought kind of counted but is stereotyped as a "tomboy" on her wiki page

also some of these characters don't have official last names in which cases i made them up for the sake of synchronicity

Alpha Bitches are no fun if they reform and become friends with the MC. The farthest it should go should be Bonney and Kim Possible where they have a few bonding moments but still have the dynamic.

My only memory of him was seeing him begging, PLEADING for kiwifarms to make him the next cwc. Either he was desperate for internet infamy or it was a big brained ploy to make people get tired of him and leave him alone.

I actually want to write something to remedy that problem. You see, the main issue with the alpha bitch befriending the mc is that she usually stops being mean
If I handled it she wouldn’t stop her bullying but rather would simply turn it on the main character’s enemies

>>143318363
i kind of agree because i hate the 180 her character does enough that i did not care to watch season 2 of the owl house

but she is within her first few appearances so those episodes go in my alpha bitch episode rotation with everyone else on the list

i love you too my darling fandrea! ~<3 thanks for the fanart, you doll!

Class resentment propaganda/social engineering. Literally everything on TV, doubly so with media whose main audience is literal children.

It's ironic considering those show writers are all upper middle class, got into their positions because of family, and hold immense power over our culture.

My only complaint about Andrea’s romance later is that we never actually see or develop the girlfriend. Romances need to be earned she should’ve gotten with Tammy instead. Then we could’ve had a dynamic of a tomboy alpha bitch and nerd alpha bitch constantly playfully arguing

you could build experience and confidence with casual photos and short videos on places like Twitter like some do. get a feel for it and build an audience at the same time. if you're comfortable with posting yourself and getting yourself out there.

It's amazing how irrelevant most of these characters are in their own stories, including Pacifica since she gets forgotten after the Mansion episode.

Only Amity, Angelica can be classified as main cast characters.

I think you forgot to finish the mouth, because it looks like her tongue is coming out of a hole in her cheek. I see what you were going for, but it took me a second to realize.

>looks like it's coming out of a hole in her cheek
I thought the same thing. It reminded me of Yuji from JJK, which now that I think about it, feels oddly fitting in this world of spooks and ghosts whose purpose is to bring fright to the living
