MBTI Personality: 16 Anime Character Personalities

ESTJ – Executive

Those who represent this personality in the anime are organized, practical characters, loyal to their principles and often have no problem using their skills to coordinate different groups of people.

ESTP – Entrepreneur

Anime characters with this personality are characterized by being quite impulsive and smart, and although they don’t think twice before jumping into action, they do reflect a lot while they’re solving a problem.

ESFJ – Good Friend

This anime personality represents characters who enjoy the company of others very much, and always seek to create a good atmosphere and work as a team.

ESFP – Entertainer

This personality corresponds to the most impulsive and unpredictable anime characters of all, and they will usually jump into action without thinking too much before or during the resolution of the conflict. They are also extremely sociable and sentimental.

ENTJ – Leader

This type of personality is quite recurrent in the anime world to create antagonists; it corresponds to a cold and calculating character profile, who usually has plans for everything and wants to impose his objective vision of reality. It tends to clash a lot with the ESFP and ENFP profile, since these are guided entirely by feelings.

ENTP – Visionary

In anime, this personality also usually corresponds to cold people, but not as calculating as the previous profile. They are usually more talkative and enjoy debating or questioning the ideas of others.

ENFJ – Charismatic

With this personality, characters emerge in anime who always create a good atmosphere around them, inspire their peers and have no problem being the center of attention. It is used to create anime characters that cause a great impact on the protagonists.

ENFP – Free Soul

The Free Soul personality is the most recurrent to create Shonen anime protagonists, and this is largely because it represents a very extroverted, impulsive and unpredictable profile, always looking for the welfare of his friends and having a good time.

ISTJ – Technician

In the world of anime this type of personality is incredibly well represented by Vegeta, since it corresponds to characters who are hard-working, responsible and solitary: they enjoy striving for their goals, but do not like to receive help from others or get involved in other people’s problems.

ISTP – Worker

This anime personality, like the previous one, is also typical of hard-working, practical and solitary characters, but not as organized and responsible, and tends to be more impulsive.

ISFJ – Charitable

These characters will never refuse to help another companion, and many times they will even be willing to help enemies if they see fit. This is the kindest personality of all, both in the anime and in reality.

ISFP – Artist

In anime this personality corresponds to reserved characters, but who have great imagination, creativity and enthusiasm to fulfill their goals and ambitions.

INTJ – Master Mind

The world of anime, this type of personality, like ENTJ, is quite recurrent for creating antagonists. They are also cold, calculating characters who want to impose their objective view of reality. However, this profile is usually more likely to work alone.

INTP – Scientist

In anime, this personality is used to create characters that represent intelligence, and it is not at all unreasonable since the same thing happens in real life. They are people who are always immersed in their world, very disorganized but with a great mental agility and a very rational thinking and focused on objectivity.

INFJ – Altruist

Within the anime, someone with this personality will also tend to be a rather charitable character, such as ISFJs; their main difference is that these characters are not only dedicated to helping but also spend much of their time reflecting and looking for alternative ways to collaborate.

INFP – Idealist

This type of personality in anime, like the previous one, focuses a lot on helping others, but it’s not usually as practical and is often more focused on proposing ideas or setting ideals.
