Junji Ito MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Junji Ito? Junji Ito is an INFP personality type in MBTI, 6w5 - - 649 in Enneagram, RLUAI in Big 5, IEI in Socionics.
While he is one of the healthiest INFPs out there I nonetheless would like to point out how massive the amounts of Fi, Ne and Si in his works are. It is pretty obvious how imaginative his mind is by what unworldly monstrosities he creates, truly one of the most unique types of horror mangaka out there. One very good example of his Fi-Ne shines through his "My Dear Ancestors". At first look the monster is just a horrifying vision of the character's mind but the symbolism behind the centipede is actually a criticism to Japan's culture where there's this unbearable pressure put on the youth that they have to marry someone and continue the family-line or otherwise their whole life would be considered pointless and meaningless. That is Fi-Ne. Ito has a motive behind all his works, to convey a message through them based on his sense of right or wrong. Other than that, his Si is also easy to notice, not just cause he puts SO MUCH attention to details (which made him so famous in the first place) but some of his works seem to originate from something he had experienced or witnessed in the past. He uses these past memories like a form of database which he then uses as a source of reference for his stories. As for his enneagram I really can't decide because I see both 4 and 6 in him but I don't know which one is his core. Overall, I just love this man he is one of the nicest and smartest people I've ever seen <3
