I really am reluctant to say this but the dude's an INFP. Dominant Fi users judge in a manner that lists off a specific action or subject as "good" or "bad" in accordance to how it makes *them* feel. They tend to be very individualistic and sensitive; and because of this, some INFPs could be outcasted (at worst, scapegoated/burned at the stake) by their communities. This literally was his middle school life even before the mafia officially entered into his life (symbolized by Reborn). This also shows in how Tsuna downright refuses to be involved in the mafia because it's not usually what he would think as an honest, ideal life. Being in the mafia doesn't make him feel he's living up to his own set of values (which deviate from his living experience), it actually contradicts that even if his living experiences normalize the lifestyle and its philosophy. And the series keeps on circling back to that idea: that even though he has shown time and time again that he is capable of achieving amazing things (like the panel where he gathered like 5 mafia families all at once lol), he only does it because he has something to protect. To him, it is more right/appropriate to protect them and temporarily sacrifice his internal peace to accommodate for his long-term internal peace. He's not focused on maintaining external harmony unless he knows for sure it will sacrifice his personal internal harmony. The event that made me convinced he was Fi-Dom was when he lashed out at Haru in the Future Arc. Of course, there were multiple other scenes that proved he was Fi-Dom but to me, how a person gets angry is very indicative of their dominant and inferior function, and what I saw was him being in the Te-grip. What made his Ne-aux most prominent to me was in the varia arc. When he was doing Zero-Point Breakthrough: First Edition and Xanxus basically told him "lol you're doing it wrong," he found a way for the "failed" technique to work for him. He found a new way to approach the situation to his benefit. He literally asked himself: (questions what Ne-aux's typically think) (https://www.psychologyjunkie.com/2020/10/13/the-auxiliary-function-of-every-myers-briggs-personality-type/) “Is there another way of looking at this?” “What other possibilities are there?” “Is there a connection I’m not seeing?” “What new ideas does this generate in my mind?” “What could I do with this?” “Is there a new way to approach this?” And I conclude, he is, an INFP. (I seriously wanted to believe he was an INFJ :,)
