Kujou Sara MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Kujou Sara? Kujou Sara is an ISTJ personality type in MBTI, 6w5 - so/sp - 613 in Enneagram, RCOAN in Big 5, LSI in Socionics.
This is very long as it argues for both her MBTI and Enneagram, apologies for the length but if anyone is questioning Sara's type in either of these systems then I hope this adequately addresses both. ① On ISTJ>ESTJ: Even if Sara displays a lot of Te usage (of course she does, it is literally the ISTJ's aux function) she hardly shows any Ne as compared to Fi. Regarding the argument that Fi inf makes sense because it's something she struggles with, I don't really see her as "struggling" with it, per se. Her outburst at the Kujou Clan and conflicting opinions on how she was going to stand her ground morally was less of inferior Fi, but more of grappling with betrayal and having her perceptions of her Clan challenged. Though she appears to have issues knowing what she herself truly wants, I don't think this is inferior Fi, it can be extended to her so6 core too. Her values are inherently connected to serving the Shogun, which is what she views as her purpose. She knows what she wants, it's just not as attached to herself in a sense, because she has ultimately chosen to devote herself fully to a larger ideal. Basing one's morals off of another doesn't discount tert Fi either. Her own values occasionally bleed into her actions, too, seen in how she let the Traveler off. She has also stated that there are certain things she questions about the Decree. Furthermore, upon Yae revealing more about the Clan's betrayal, she displays more sensitivity to the topic and becomes excessively defensive of herself and attempts to use her feelings to reason. Fi is more present than some expect, just because it manifests differently. Both Te and Fi serve her Si norms. Perhaps she does not display an overtly negative relationship with Ne, but she does have certain troubles with it to some extent in how she's unable to consider other possibilities that don't fit into her preconceived notions of how the world around her works and has always worked. Her inability to consider (and refusal to accept) the more questionable aspects of the Vision Hunt Decree also points towards inf Ne to me. ② On 6w5>1w9: Although I understand why she may look like a 1 core, she does not display the anger and chronic dissatisfaction with how things are that manifests in a 1. They typically hold resentment in the sense that they always notice flaws, leading to a feeling that nothing is ever good enough. She may try to be perfect and overextend herself for the sake of this, but 6s are just as capable of this. Her ideal self is not someone who "does no wrong", but I believe it's someone who is consistently loyal and reliable to the authority she follows instead, which alludes to 6>1. It isn't the action (her being a self-critical hard worker) that matters, but the reason for it that does. The so6 is preoccupied with duty above all else out of a need for stability. Again, her reaction to the wrongdoings of the Kujou Clan also comes to mind here. The 6's tendency to rely on projection fits her in this regard: "Sixes project goodness and other positive attributes onto other people and organisations, sometimes beyond what is objectively true. Projecting in this overly-positive way enables Sixes to maintain their loyalty to the person, cause or system and to therefore maintain their sense of self as the loyal person. But once this “other” falls from grace, which can happen hard and fast once it occurs, Sixes then perceive this “other” as bad, also using projection to create untested negative assumptions or inferences. At this point, Sixes do not believe they need to be loyal, as to do so would be foolish. As a result, they do not perceive this counter-reaction as disloyalty, but as disappointing reality." - this does suit how she acted in response to that predicament, and counters the "morals>loyalty" argument + her loyalty is also more fixated on the Shogun than the Kujou Clan in terms of how she prioritises them in the first place. So6s also hold strict rules for themselves and can appear to be as rigid as a 1. However, Sara's judgement comes not from herself (which would apply to a 1), but from those of a higher authority than her, and she views herself as someone who perpetuates social ideals. They are also prone to disillusionment after idealising authorities/causes, which is familiar to her character. Even if she has her own standards (which some are using to support 1 core), her main concern is seeing herself as a devotee of the Shogun's will. These personal standards are the product of that dutiful mentality, on top of a 1 fix. They also don't stem from resentment for the sake of perfectionism, but from duty for solidity. Her being a social 6 also accounts for her Fi being expressed through other authorities rather than herself. She is Attachment (6) > Frustration (1) in terms of Object Relations, attaching to the external support another individual/group offers to quell her fears, living through their ideals.
