Hi people !
If you've got any anime/manga with INTP lead/one of the main characters, post em.
I think it'd be interesting to see how they are portray INTPs and develop their characters through the series.

Thanks

OK, so I tried to find some more anime characters that are INTPs:

1. Professor Stein in Soul Eater (he's not really a main character, but he is a pivotal one)
2. CC from Code Geass (all right, she's more of an INFJ in a huge Ni-Ti loop, but she does share traits that I've seen are similar to INTPs)
3. The Undertaker from Black Butler
4. Nice from Hamatora

I haven't watched a lot of anime (I started watching it last year lol), but it seems that INTPs are portrayed as amazingly intelligent, unorthodox, yet socially awkward loners. It's a shame that there isn't more INTP anime characters. :p

I find it difficult to name characters one specific MTBI type since they tend to be written as tropes, and not so much real people.


Other than those already listed, I find myself relating to the main characters of "Yahari Ore no Seishun Rabu Kome wa Machigatteiru"(My Teen Romantic Comedy Snafu) and "The World God Only Knows".

The former because of how much he thinks and how little he actually says, how often he is brutally honest, how he can manipulate people if he wants but finds it tiresome, etc. The latter I relate to because of his annoyance with real life humans and his ability to easily recognize patterns.

1. Stein is more an ENTP than an INTP. Maka's dad is an INTP though. Notice the different quality in Fe in the two.
2. CC is an INFJ, yes. The scientist guy who supported the rebels and was supposed to marry that high school frat girl ENFJ was an INTP, though, but more of an INTP trope than an actual person.

I can't think of an anime or manga where the main protagonist is an INTP. Okabe from Stein's Gate is an ENTP though, so close enough, I suppose.
