I just realized that I don't think I have seen an anime yet where the protagonist has a brother, it's always a little/big sister. I think the closest anime I have seen where they have a brother is Code Geass but I don't think that really counts much since they seem like such outsiders and there's almost no interaction between them.

Anyways, does anyone know of any good animes where the protagonist has a brother and the brother might actually be a main character or something as well? I don't care if the protagonist is male or female but please no incesty stuff.

Wow, in that case you certainly must be new to anime.

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood - most popular one.

Yeah, I only just started not long ago and have maybe seen like 20 animes max. Maybe it's just the genres I have been watching (lots of slice of life/romance/comedy stuff). It seems like they always have some funny little sister or something, I'd love to watch something with a brother who plays a big part in the anime.

Some I've seen:
Ao no Exorcist (obvious one)
Hetalia Axis Powers (sort of)
FMA (as Mace already said)

wow, you're right those are all the one I've seen excluding Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou were the MC was called brother.

My favorite quotes from animes:

Those who seek miracles will never experience one. The hand of salvation only extends to people
who try to make miracles happen. - Ef a tale of melodies.
I destroy worlds. I create worlds. - Code geass

You need to watch this, for so many reasons. As well as the original version, Fullmetal Alchemist (preferably first).

Also:
+1 Ao no Exorcist
Fruits Basket
Saiunkoku Monogatari
Kingdom
Ouran HSHC
Tokyo Magnitude 8.0

I've thrown in a bunch of different ones, all of them have 'brothers of significance' to varying degrees.

Happens in some Magical Girl series, such as:

Sailor Moon (not a significant role)
Pretty Cure (2004) (not a significant role)
Pretty Cure Splash Star (though Saki's generally the "lead" and Mai, who has an older brother, is more of a co-star)
Suite Pretty Cure
Pretty Rhythm: Aurora Dream

Also:

Scrapped Princess (adopted brother, and though the first episode has some incest teasing, it's never brought up afterward)
Mai Hime (very plot-relevant younger brother)
Ghost Stories (younger brother featured as comic relief or sidekick, depending on which language you choose)
Bridge to Starry Skies (caution: IT'S A TRAP)
Watamote (could be construed as incesty sometimes, but it really isn't since she fails so hard)
Strain: Strategic Armored Infantry (very plot-relevant older brother)
Maria Watches Over Us (doesn't appear often since most of the action is at an all-girls school)
Karin (older brother in significant supporting role)
