Kunihiko Ikuhara MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is Kunihiko Ikuhara? Kunihiko Ikuhara is an INFJ personality type in MBTI, 4w5 - so/sx - 458 in Enneagram, RLUEI in Big 5, IEI in Socionics.

Ikuhara has a strong Ni-Ti connection that burns in every anime he had made. His symbols are profoundly personal but not in an emotional or external way, they obey its own inner logic that only he can really understand. And when someone has asked him to actually explain those symbols, he only comes with more cryptical explanations and basically mocks anyone trying to find a Te or Ne explanation of them. That's why Utena, Mawaru Penguindrum and Yuri Kuma Arashi strike like very abstract and hard to catch series, but in a very different way than how Hideaki Anno's series can be understood, for example. Evangelion comes with Ne universal symbols: biblical, freudian and general symbols that have an objective meaning but are used in a personal and emotional way (Fi-Ne). If we take Utena, it's hard to stablish a universal frame of symbols - and that we can all agree with them - like we can do with Evangelion; that's Ikuhara's Ni-Ti combo in action.
