This was meant to be posted months ago, but here: 1/?. Introverted Thinking (Pertaining to the anime’s current progress, mostly using manga quotes) “He won’t answer… Did he figure out my secret? No, he should’ve heard it from that monkey at the beginning. All I can do now is make him talk again…” (Season 2 Episode 20) Ti is orientated toward a deductive process of reasoning: “All men are mortal. (First premise) Socrates is a man. (Second premise) Therefore, Socrates is mortal. (Conclusion)” The line above resembles this deductive process, let me simplify: Midoriya is not talking following being brainwashed. Moral monkey guy [Ojiro] prevented him [Midoriya] from responding to me when I attempted to size him up earlier. Monkey guy must’ve *directly* told Midoriya about my quirk's activation prior to our fight. Now let’s add more nuance. Ojiro has already been established to be a person of strong morals by this point, which presented further conjecture for this conclusion. He probably deduced that it would be against Ojiro’s will to have the power to prevent Midoriya from losing, which likely aided in this quick conclusion. Considering how Ojiro was willing to sacrifice his position and chance to prove himself as one of the strongest in the first year courses, Shinsou would likely be able to make the deduction that Midoriya would be able to use that bit of information, especially considering the prior events leading up to this. (Ojiro intervening during the original pre-battle interaction.) I feel that this could also be evidence against Ni/Se. This contrasts to the inductive style of characters like Todoroki who draw conclusions from a process that builds itself from the ground up, rather than mining its way down to a conclusion. Te is orientated toward an inductive process of reasoning: “The window of my house is broken. There are footprints in my house. My valuables and electronics are missing. Therefore, someone broke into my house." When Todoroki confronts Midoriya about being All Might’s illegitimate child, he does so after repeatedly allowing his speculative impressions to fuel the process in which he began finding parallels between the two. Using external data to slowly build up this conclusion until he had enough conjecture to mention it. Te is more orientated toward establishing a cogent foundation, where Ti isn’t necessarily systematic, it follows its judgment on the most logical course to extend upon its framework. (Correction: Ti IS systematic, however it works in such a way where this deduction frames systems differently than Te) ~~~ A little bit of elaboration: 1. “His judgment appears cold, obstinate, arbitrary, and inconsiderate, simply because he is related less to the object than the subject. One can feel nothing in it that might possibly confer a higher value upon the object; it always seems to go beyond the object, leaving behind it a flavour of a certain subjective superiority.” 1. “If nothing else, a General Ed kid like me is thinking, “Hey, why don’t I try pulling the rug from under those while they’re on their high horses?” Consider it a declaration of war.” (Quote from the manga.) 2. “In no sense, of course, is he an opponent, but, if at all sensitive, he will feel somewhat repelled, perhaps even depreciated.” 2. “‘It’s good for being a villain, huh?” I’m used to people insinuating that about me. That’s just what the world is like.” 3. “Take Immanuel Kant, the conceptual and philosophical archetype for INTPs, who was an extremely organized person. Te users like to streamline situations around them, unlike Ti, which complicates the world around it.” 3. This was demonstrated, again, in his flashback to middle school, we gain insight on this world view, built in skepticism of the external ethical standard, by mocking and acknowledging his place and the way people view him by default; though acknowledging his own view and how it could've been skewed if it weren't him with the brainwashing quirk. This demonstrates the value of external feeling values and status.
