in Anime/Manga MBTI Types

Ni: โ€œEven when it rains, it isnโ€™t as if the stars stop existing, you know. Above the dark clouds, theyโ€™re still up there, shining. Thatโ€™s why Iโ€™m doing this.

Steins Gate: Okabe Rintarou (ENTP)

Sentimentality: Just an Si Tendency?

in Function Analysis, Stereotypes

One of the big proofs of Si, or Introverted Sensing, that people look for is sentimentality. Most of the time, itโ€™s the first question someone is asked when the possibility of Si is on the table.
