Seven Deadly Sins: Ban (ESFP)

in Anime/Manga MBTI Types

We noticed that popular opinion has typed Ban as an ESTP, or Ti auxiliary. We actually see a strong case for Fi/Te. As per usual, please approach with an open mind. Se: โ€œWay back in those days, I was in the market for some pain. I wanted to wallow in suffering because I thought that [โ€ฆ]

7 Reasons ENTJs and ESTJs Mistype as Introverts

in Typing Dilemmas

This is a very real pattern. Weโ€™ve probably run across more ESTJs and ENTJs that mistype as introverts than oneโ€™s that type as the actual extraverts that they are. Granted, many extraverts tend to mistake themselves as introverts, but this specific problem does seem extremely commonplace amongst the ENTJs and ESTJs. A ENTJ will often [โ€ฆ]

5 Differences Between ESTPs and ISTPs

in Typing Dilemmas

I published this article close to two years ago, but recently Iโ€™ve learned quite a bit more about the distinctions between these two types. We try to periodically go back and update our staple articles as we learn more, so, itโ€™s time to do this one. Iโ€™m going to go ahead and launch right into [โ€ฆ]

Naruto Series: Chลji Akimichi (ISFP)

in Anime/Manga MBTI Types

Ok, this is the very last Naruto typing that was stored away in our draftsโ€ฆ from back during the time when we werenโ€™t getting a bunch of requests. Since weโ€™re not quite ready with Tien yet, I decided to get it published and out of the way. So, disclaimer, Choji like some of the other [โ€ฆ]

Explaining Introverted Thinking (Ti) Identity

in Function Analysis

My brain goes a little nuts when trying to explain Introverted Thinking, or Ti, sometimes. I recently did a YouTube interview with Joyce Meng which can be found here, and of course one of the things that I had to explain in depth was Ti.

Naruto Series: Kabuto Yakushi (ENFJ)

in Anime/Manga MBTI Types

This is one of the our last two Naruto articles that we have sitting in our drafts. Kabuto was actually very tricky. At one point, we were pegging him as an Se aux. We flipped around between ISFP and ISTPโ€ฆ and then we pegged him as an INFJ. I even wrote the article! It sat [โ€ฆ]

Perspective Is Everything

in Personality Theory 101

Ryan and I were in the midst of a discussion the other day, and the main focus somehow worked its way around to all of the many different perspectives of a certain personality type that there can be. This is something that I think a lot of people donโ€™t give enough thought to, so I [โ€ฆ]

Ni: โ€œIf we can identify the candidates, their styles and motives, we can prepare, helping us to ensure the bossโ€™ protection.โ€ โ€œHonestly, how reckless can you be.โ€ โ€œWhy do you want to be a hunter?
