Okay, hear me out. I for one do appreciate the separate profiles on Kinjiro's previous and current life for the more minor changes in typology (AP/PY LFVE -> FEVL, RxOEN flipping to become SLUAI and melancholic to sanguine, and such) but how I saw it, I don't think his MBTI + Enneagram changed whatsoever. At the very least however, if he were to be a different MBTI entirely and thus having a different consensus for Kinjiro as compared to Joji, I'm betting on ENFP. First, I'd like to refute the ISFP consensus. -- While Kinjiro has a rather strong hold on his Fi, I don't think it's strong enough to be dominant in his personality-- take, for example, Ryugi who entirely runs on his own personal beliefs and devotion to TegaSword. While Kinjiro has beliefs of his own, they do not necessarily take center stage. Frankly, I really do not see much Fi in him-- much less a Te inferior. I see more use of Te even when he's trying to be this party-people-person. And Se-Ni? I apologize, but if you're going to paint him as such, at least make it make sense by instead making him Se dom and lacking Ni. I really don't see Ni. Meanwhile, Se, while real-world and action-oriented, does not necessarily make someone a party person the way he's trying to make himself as. Now really, hear me out. Just hear me out on this one. I believe that Kinjiro is an ISTJ trying to emulate an ENFP through his Ne inferior. While he actively tries to bring out an inner child and tries to build his newfound blank reputation into someone 'lax and fun-party-loving, he regularly has lapses wherein he reverts to his old man self. I would understand a different MBTI consensus entirely if it wasn't that often (or, if you were to separate his old identity, sure. that's fine), but time and time again do we see two clashing thoughts of his old life wanting to continue to uphold something while his new life wants to experience every new thing out there. It's clear to me that he's trying to live his new life through the lens of his Ne, but it's so underdeveloped that he seems to struggle with this on a regular basis. SiTe lapses and behaviors -- Kinjiro is consciously trying to develop and bring forth his lower two functions. But he's clearly not good with them. Where does that bring us? Back to his two strongest functions that seem to peek out whenever he's still unsure of what he's really doing. We can see it best when he lectures others. It's pure logic, reason, and a whole lack of imagination or possibility as he goes back to upholding traditional values before trying to let it go once more. Even if his rants were more emotionally-charged, he still verbalizes old values and and need for elderly respect. There's also the fact that, despite trying to be a teen, he has rather outdated if not somewhat stereotypical ideas of what a teenager and a party person should be and should be doing. He definitely failed his first few attempts at using pure Ne when he tried to get what he knew (ie. using traditional dance forms with the party No-One, the casette tape....). I'd also reckon mentioning his fashion sense. It's applicable. His taste is very conservative and makes him look old for a newfound 17-year-old. If he truly were stronger in Ne+Fi, he'd probably have more contemporary taste that is out there compared to his tacky plaid suits. We can compare his fashion sense to Sumino despite her focusing more on simple, elegant and "luxurious" considering the fact that she's literally gen z at 23. I have additional explanations for his enneagram, of which I'll be adding in the comments. Hope I got my message across. It's been bugging me for a while so I stopped to analyze him in full.
