Shinji Matou MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is Shinji Matou? Shinji Matou is an ESFP personality type in MBTI, 3w4 - sx/so - 368 in Enneagram, SLUEN in Big 5, SEE in Socionics.

3w4 because he has a inferiority complex and then pretends and performs to be the ultimate superior human being when he doesn’t even has magical circuits lmao. i cannot come to like him even a little bit, rin shouldn’t keep him alive at the end of UBW (but I’m glad sakura didn’t). i still want to know how he would be if he lived with another family, if zouken wasn’t a psychopath or if he went trough the cruel training his uncle and sister experienced. the only reason i’m curious is because he’s totally different from kariya and the completely opposite of sakura (ESFP 3w4 x ISFJ 9w1). she said that shinji used to be a sweet boy before he met her, but sakura has a distorted image of 90% of people she knows and ‘i can save him’ complex so i can’t see her statement as completely reliable.

Biography

Sakura's brother and Shirou's friend from middle school, Shinji is abrasive, smug and annoying. While he comes from a family of magi, due to the land of Fuyuki "rejecting" the Matou family, they had lost their magical potential by the time that Shinji was born. Thus, Shinji lacks a Magic Circuit and thus, has no magical potential whatsoever. Questioning his ability is an easy way to get on his bad side and in general he seems largely unstable. At school, he's a popular ladies' man, but it's not quite clear why: He's rude, arrogant and ineptly manipulates the few friends he has. Shinji is shown early on to be the Master of the mysterious Servant Rider, whom he controls using an artifact created from Rider's Command Spells called the Book of the False Attendant, and takes up a fairly prominent role in all three routes. #CompleteMonster
