#mbti asks

To make things clear, I think Ran falls under XXFP but my personal opinion is ESFP. I do think he's a se dominant user. Although he loves to sleep, that doesn't mean he's an introvert per se. To me, he just likes to chill. Lol

He's quite concrete (as supposed to abstract which would make him more of an intuitive but I think he's a sensor), pragmatic and initiating with people. Tries to be poetic but comes across as an airhead a bit. Even though he's pragmatic he's quite expressive with his emotions, aesthetic, and individuality (separate uniforms for him and brother), very charismatic.

He's moody as we've seen his reaction when Rin was having a party at 4pm with his friends and his beauty sleep was interrupted. And Rindou hiding in the bathroom suggests this isn't the first time he's witnessed Ran have an outburst. Only an offering of his favorite dessert can change his mood. That's very FP behavior.

Also one of the biggest indicators for me that he's an ESFP is that his special skill is presenting himself in a good light. Meaning he's great at making a first good impression. That tells me hes a natural at social manipulation and shows you what you want to see from him whether it's true or not. He also wishes he was a celebrity. ESFP are natural performers and enjoy being in the spotlight, they like attention and thrive on it. Given the fact the he outshines Rindou in the delinquent world proves it in my opinion. Rindou being annoyed by it and doing his own little show with the splits and martial arts positions proves he's also an se dom wanting some attention on him too.

Ran is laid back, maybe even a bit lazy. But still quite vain in his appearance and interests. The man likes luxury and status. Not saying that's a bad thing but that's classic ESFP without being too stereotypical. His clothes are very flashy. Whether it's dark or colorful, it catches your eye and demands your attention.

He also seems that he doesn't think about the consequences of his actions until after it's done. Along with his brother, they accidentally killed a guy which landed them in juvie. Both of them being se users couldn't stop and think about possibly going too far in injuring that guy. Se users are the types to act first and ask questions later. Sure he's a bit more cautious than Rindou but i think that's due to Ran being more experienced and mature compared to Rindou. That's a nurture thing compared to nature. His nature is quite impulsive. Also the fact that they both have massive tattoos covering half their bodies as teenagers is quite risky and "consequences be damned" behavior.

Their home is very messy and catered to socializing. Pizza boxes, open potato chips, trash, and alcohol all over the kitchen. I don't think that's only just Rindou's mess. If Ran was an TJ user, he wouldn't have any of it and allow that sort of mess in his personal space. Naoto, Kisaki, and Sanzu are TJs and they're very organized and clean people.

Please let me know what you think!

Ran’s definitely a sensor. To me he seems like a sensor who took the 16p test and got mistyped as an intuitive, so after reading his result description, he started trying to act more like one lmao

I can’t quite see Ran as a Se-dom, especially when comparing him to Rindou. Now this might just be me falling into the trap of stereotypes but I keep thinking about Chapter 128, where he hits Mitsuya in the head. Both Rindou and Mocchi were miffed when Ran suddenly comes in and incapacitates Mitsuya because he ruined their “fun”. I see that as one of the main differences between Rindou and Ran: Rindou enjoys the experience of fighting and everything that comes with it. (Exerting himself, doing splits, hearing his enemies scream in pain, probably feeling and hearing their bones snap... all that good stuff.) He just really enjoys tormenting them before taking them down for good. Meanwhile, Ran likes to take his enemies down instantly.

I just think the act of fighting doesn’t matter as much to him as it does to Rindou. 

Having a distinct style, wanting attention, and moodiness are traits that make me think of Fi, which would be the ESFP’s auxiliary function, so I see your point there. However, ISTJs also use Fi. It’s just that it’s their tertiary function. 

I associate charisma more with the FJ-types (Fe users). I don’t think Ran is an FJ-type either. Any type can be charismatic though. It might just come more naturally to certain types than others. 

As for the Battle of the Ashes incident, I’m not exactly sure why but I’ve always thought Ran was really aiming to kill (or at least almost-kill) the vice captain. I see your point about that and the tattoo too. Impulsiveness/spontaneity are part of the Se-dom’s brand. 

If you’re interested in why I think Ran’s an ISTJ, it’s all under the cut:

What MBTI types do I most associate with the enemies to lovers tropes?

A lot of pairings can be enemies to lovers. I think a better question to ask is, why are they enemies? What makes them hate each other? Is it a difference between N vs S? F vs T? E vs I? P vs J? Or is it because they are so similar that they mirror each others' flaws? And why will they fall in love with each other?

After you decide that, only then you can choose the types. These are the examples;

ENTP vs ESTJ: ENTP is the lazy genius and ESTJ is the typical I-put-effort-into-this-shit-and-I-deserve-it valedictorian. They butt heads because they function differently and they annoy each other in every class they share. They fall in love because they have what the other doesn't, ENTP teaches ESTJ how to let loose and explore novel ideas, and ESTJ reminds ENTP that it's smart to be intentional with your actions instead of leaving your life up to fate.

INFJ vs INTJ: As rulers, they both have the same ideal; believing in a perfect world. But they are enemies because they use different methods to achieve that goal (Fe vs Te), motivated by different moral values; eg. INFJ believes people can be 'persuaded' 'brainwashed' to follow the vision, they come up with plans of how it can happen without bloodbath. INTJ prefers to just get rid of people who threaten their vision and 'recycle' those people by involving them in organ trade; for the benefit of other citizens and also for extra national income. This fits lovers to enemies to lovers.

ESTP vs ESTP: Let's say they are both fighters. They both behave similarly, but because they are put in a setting where they have to be competitors, it's a challenge for them to figure out how to beat the other. So in this case, they are enemies because of their roles/setting, but they are lovers because of their similarities; these make them connect and drawn to each other.

Alpha male/alpha female

Is it the athlete type or is it the CEO type? If you are talking about the 'professional' 'cutthroat' environment a.k.a the CEO type, the stereotypical alpha fits TJs the most (ESTJ, ENTJ, ISTJ, INTJ). XXTJ women stand out, since they tend to be perceived as cold and they desire control. XXTP women can appear 'masculine' too, but if you want to make both of the characters competitive and controlling, choose Judgers. Te-doms' dominance is obvious (EXTJ), Te-aux are more lowkey about it (IXTJ).

If you want the female character to submit to the male character, it really depends on how you want their dynamic to play out. Cocky guy with an ice-queen? ENTJ male and INTJ female. Dominant boss who eventually falls in love with her much calmer assistant and he becomes her weakness? ESTJ female and ISTJ male. Lovers who compete for fun to see who will win their power struggle on that particular day? Te-dom with Te-dom. But keep in mind, these people are still stubborn, so you need to give a good reason why she will submit to the man. 'I fell in love' is not enough reason. These people put their goals/tasks above their feelings.

MBTI is literally how a character functions. Enneagram, on the other hand focuses on what motivates them to react in a particular manner. 

In your case, an INFP will first and foremost would always decide using Fi. All their decisions would have some emotional meaning to them. And these emotions are personal. Fi users rarely have that need to explain what they feel. 

ISFJs, would use Si instead. As dominant perceivers, they’re first instinct would be to find similarities between what they’ve seen and what’s right in front of them. 

So first, narrow down on how they navigate through their surrounding. Do they, try to function in their surrounding based on what they’ve experienced before and then try to classify it ? Or do they judge it based on what they feel about it, and try to function/take action ? Asking these questions should help you find their MBTI types. 

9s tend to ignore their anger. And among the 9s, 9w1 is extremely passive. They repress anger and beat themselves up even further when they act on it, due to their 1 wing. They would pretty much do anything except feel the anger and act on that. Due to this tendency of theirs, a lot of people can find them extremely passive, rock-like, very peaceful, lazy, etc. They do this cause they think what they need or feel, due to their surroundings, has no importance. Not in your typical 2 sense, but more like: “if I keep my needs, emotions and feelings to myself, people around me would have a better time. They already have a lot going on with them, adding this would only make the situation worse.”  

9s usually have a really good childhood (which makes them think that the less unfortunate have more rights to complain than they do, cause they’ve always had that comfort) or a messed up one where they’re forced to take care of their surrounding (in this case, they end up thinking that they’re feelings, if voiced out, would make the situation worse for everyone, and therefore ruin the mood). So they shut up to enjoy the mood and ignore they’re anger or focus externally and help others to ignore they’re inner rage that would bother everything. 

So add this to their mbti type. ISFJs, being the type to help the most, would pretty much ignore how much they must help themselves and try to sort their environment. They, in literal sense, would embody selflessness. Eiji from Banana Fish, pretty much does this. He see Ash, he likes him, he completely ignores how much trouble it puts him through. He’s solely focused on how Ash feels, how much he has to save Ash from this horrible environment ( see, he does consider it horrible, but doesn’t care about his position in it). He pretty much ignores his anger towards this world and tries to protect Ash how much ever he can, however is too passive to do anything. 

Thanks for sending in an ask!! This is the first time I've ever done this!! 😊

-------------------------------------------------------Autumn: my favorite thing about autumn are the sounds! The crunch of the fallen leave when you walk over them, the birds, the rustle of wind through the trees, that crisp sound in the air that's hard to describe but for me is distinct to autumn and reminds me of a place i love!

Holding hands: i do believe in soulmates although I believe soulmates are not just found through romantic relationships but that two people can be platonic soulmates!

Leaves: my favorite color that leaves turn is that mix of orange and red! Sadly i dont get to see that in person much since i live in an area where for the most part leaves either stay green and on the trees or just go straight to brown!

Hey there! 💕 I had to take a while to think about this because it’s such an interesting question skdfnskndk 💕 There’s a couple of big topics we should touch on… separately and then together? I’ll make it brief so I don’t ramble for too long 💕

[Below Cut: Romance| Love| Sexuality Asteroids (+ MBTI  in relation to Astrology ]

⭐ - INTP - They do care. They just don't know how to let it out. They do have emotions, and they are very strong (not always). When they say that they're sorry, they're truly sorry.

So sorry to hear that.. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with being an introvert

I would suggest sitting down with your friend and asking her to quit “bashing you” as an introvert or at least let her know it makes you uncomfortable and if she persists, perhaps she’s not really a good friend..

We live in an seemingly extrovert dominant society where “extroverted” traits such as being social, outgoing , and talkative, are valued. HOWEVER, there are plenty of introverts who can be just as (or even more) seemingly extroverted.

The main difference between introverts and extroverts is how we getting our energy. If an introvert needs to socialize for a long period of time, they will get socially exhausted and need some alone, or with a couple close friends to “recharge”. If an extrovert needs to socialize for a long period of time, they are more “charged up” than they were before they socialized.

Also, I’m not super familiar with the spoonie method so if you have any information on that, please share!

Have a great day!
