Koyomi Araragi MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is Koyomi Araragi? Koyomi Araragi is an INFP personality type in MBTI, 6w5 - sp/sx - 641 in Enneagram, RLUAI in Big 5, EII in Socionics.

When typing a character like him, it’s best to look at his defining character traits and how he compares to similar characters in the series befor anything else.Araragi is really bothered by his sister’s urge to fight for “justice”, a belief Karen has internalized to the bone. She and Tsukihi recklessly enforce her view of what is “justice”, the “right thing to do”.However, at the end of Nisemonogatari it is stated that Karen learned that kind of behavior from her brother, making Araragi a hypocrite.And it’s obviously true, because his strongest trait is that he would save anyone without hesitation. He will try to help them at all costs, even if that means he might get injured or even die. This “putting others above him” comes from his self loathing, and he cannot leave anyone to their fate, even if it would be the logical thing to do, simply because his ideology doesn’t allow it. In Tsubasa Family Oshino, an INTP, tells Araragi specifically not to interfere, but Araragi can’t help but take action. He always acts upon his morality. Also, didn’t Araragi meet his vampire in the first place because he felt guilty about thinking of the kind, innocent Hanekawa in a sexualized way? That whole “intensity as a human” thing? Refusing to make connections out of fear to get hurt does seem like a form of unhealthy Fi to me. Admittedly, Koyomi does not appear as a stereotypical INFP, but what are stereotypes anyways? “He cAn tHiNk LoGicaLLy sO XXTX”, “He is an Otaku so he MuSt bE aN INTP”, yeah sure, hard to argue against facts like that.
