16 Personalities as Main Characters | TIER LIST

[@lukakomarov1014]

B tier looks right into my soul

[@humanoidaktilo]

Make. More. ENTP. Main. Characters. I want to see more people of my kind who burn down everybody and everything that they touch and have fun from it. Also their character developement would be something like "Oh, I shouldn't be that much of an asshole!" and at the end of the story they will be like just a little bit more humble. Juuust a needed amount of kindness so they are not pure evil and actually a good main character

[@MarygotaPlan]

the "threat to society' protagonist lmao I dig it

[@浪人-v2l]

Literally every dumb anime protagonist is entp

[@1woozy]

@@浪人-v2l not likely. ExFP is way more common in that trope.

[@darkgravity237]

My favorite INTP protagonist is Donnie Darko. Check that movie out, I think it's the best INTP protagonist I have seen so far.

[@hanalove8978]

Check out inside job, it features an entj main character and protagonist. She is crafted in such a masterful and impressive way. Also, Kratos definitely is an estj, though, I would not call him a hero of any sorts.

I've heard about that show, but haven't seen it yet. I heard good things tho

[@Pinkywinkykinky]

Unfortunately it got cancelled though, I want to see protags that aren't crackheaded Enfps like me 😔I totally know what you mean by Enfp protags being hard to master because yeah there's cool ones like Luz and Molly from the ghost and molly mcgee, but imagine an Enfp that isn't hyper adhd like me who's a 9w8, or one that relies on their Te more because BOY can we become bitchy when we overuse that function

[@dripcat7332]

mary got a plan: ENTPs are usuall depicted as villians and hard to identify with the viewer Gumball: HOLD MY BEER

gimme the beer

[@christyrosecalvo6927]

You just told the truth about the INFP's being a main character. This is also the reason why I am careful in writing an INFP character. They are easy to be common or to fail.

Isfj can be done pretty Well though, the Protagonist from fight club is an isfj and is one of the best imo.

[@AllMyDreamsAreLucid]

Girl does not realize that 80% of Anime protagonists are ESFPs

[@LeeLe412]

It's all about the writing, I agree. Although: # I think ISFJ's can make great main characters: Morty from Rick and Morty, Neville from Harry potter, Captain America, the narrator guy from Fight Club, Otis from Sex education... I think the only issue with them is that they probably won't be very initiative and will be forced to partake in whatever plot is happening and will most likely be a follower for a while or have another character take up a lot of their focus. Most likely their arc would be to build up their self confidence and grow into heroes. # ISTJ main character makes me think of Katniss (she gets typed as ISTP but she is ISTJ), Hermione (book version), Ned Stark or Brienne from Game of Thrones, Joel from The Last of Us... Their whole arc would be being disillusioned with the system they live within and learning to fight against it or doing things they don't want to do due to duty and loyalty. # ENFJ can be great main characters as well if they are putting up a front of being perfect and they slowly break or pretend to be perfect but are very manipulative (even if with good intentions) like, Margaery Tyrell from Game of Thrones, Rock Lee from Naruto, Fiona from Shameless. This gives them an edge as main characters. # ISTP are like what you said, good if you need action: Daryl from Walking Dead, Toph from Avatar, Hopper from Stranger Things, Mike from Breaking Bad, Arya from Game of Thrones... Their arc is usually to discover their feelings. # ENTJ as main characters (and not villains) is rare, but as protagonists they do exist and are always awesome: Sokka from Avatar (yes, he is ENTJ), Erin Smith from Attack On Titan, Bakugo from My Hero Academia, Princess Bubblegum from Adventure Time, Thomas Shelby from Peaky Blinders, Reagan Ridley from Inside Job, Princess Carolyn from Bojack Horseman, Asuka from Neon Genesis Evangelion, Lila from My Brilliant Friend, Mike Wazowski from Monsters Inc, Number 5 from The Umbrella Academy. Are usually still very morally grey, not always nice, have to find a balance between their ambitions and feelings. # ESTJ main protagonists: Monica from Friends, Dwight from The Office, Claire Dunphy from Modern Family, Lucas and Nancy from Stranger Things, Sam from Totally Spice. Very into rules, have to be pushed to break them, but will if they become disillusioned with the system (like ISTJ but with a temper and more extraverted and dramatic). # The most interesting main ISFP protagonists are the ones walking the fine line between good and bad. Their dilemma is usually figuring out how far they are willing to go to achieve an altruistic goal. Zuko from Avatar, Harry Potter, Eren from Attack On Titan, Coraline from Caroline, Marceline from Adventure Time. Are portrayed like ISTP but more moody, emotional and with a bleeding heart. # ENTP's, like ENTJ's, when they are the main protagonist (or a protagonist), they still remain morally ambiguous or grey zoned, in other words "a good person who does bad things": Jim from The Office, Chandler from Friends, Bojack Horseman, Rick Sanchez, Dustin from Stranger Things (one of the only purely good protagonists of this type), the twins from Harry Potter, Saul Goodman from Better Call Saul, Number 4 from The Umbrella Academy.

YES.

I stan this ship bro

[@reneaevans5358]

INTPs and ENTPs are really uncommon as main characters.Thomas form Maze Runner is an INTP and Will Newman is an ENTP from Five feet apart.

[@浪人-v2l]

The lack on commentary on INFP 🥲

[@MarygotaPlan]

There was a whole video i made on INFPs and why they are tricky as protagonists. It was awhile ago but i suggest you check it out. Somry

[@lukakomarov1014]

I don't know if I've already said that but I'm an ENTP

[@thunderthunder7164]

Are you on Personality Database?

[@daring_dreamer2]

Well can u please do a video about how to write an ESTJ & ISTJ because most of the people misunderstood ESTJ are the bad ones for example if you see the PDB they are the antagonist and ISTJ's are mostly seen as the robotic human.

[@friendlyanomaly6109]

Redhood is said to be an ISFP villain. Idk if that's true tho.

[@MarygotaPlan]

I just watched Zoolander. The only main character ISFP I know LMAOOO

You are funny as hell! I love you. And that accent. What mbti are you anyway?

[@Fernandanatac]

Have you watched Vox Machina? I’ve heard that Scanlan (a hero) is an ENTP. I don’t know what to think of that lol it may be totally wrong, but if it’s true… well, he’s fun!

[@MarygotaPlan]

I have not watched it but maybe it's gonna go on my 'to watch list'. Thanks to you guys it's never gonna be empty

[@blackzeus8176]

Imma have to come back after I do the test

[@Guiguiwan]

ENTJ MC ? easy => lelouch vi britannia/roboute guilliman (also eldrad ulthran yet many eldars could fit)/Geralt of riva (not sure because the "unfeeling" is on the surface not deep down)/Maybe elrond? At least Gandalf the white/ And freakin' Anakyn skywalker (very emotional but show it to ONLY and I mean ONLY ONE people in the galaxy, two if you count ashoka...)/Also and I find it weird you don't mention it but if not Alucard (from hellsing abridged specificaly) then obviously integra hellsing/ Odysseus, one of the most famous heroes in History (with a capital H) ... the list goes on

[@johnwentz2149]

Not a single one of those characters is an ENTJ (except maybe the abridged version of Alucard). To focus on one, Lelouch is an INTJ. Before he gets power handed to him on a silver platter, he's a chronic slacker living in his own head. He only begins developing Te as a result of the situation and otherwise would be caught in an Ni-Fi loop. He's also notoriously awful at sports and physically inactive, more characteristic of lower Se than lower Fi. As for the rest, Gandalf and Elrond are both INTJs, Integra is an ISTJ and Odysseus is an ENTP.

[@innergreatness5531]

Only 4 mins in and I can tell you consider the "INFP" the generic "cliché" protagonist. Im calling it. I'm also INFP.

[@MarygotaPlan]

Some of them are cool tho. But mostly i just think they are difficult to write

[@blackzeus8176]

Brooo. I'm here thinking that she is going to talk about anime characters' personality. I was dead wrong

[@gabrielbezerra8261]

You can't take any more ENFJ's as main character, not in real life, got it. But I, honestly, can't take any ENFP's in real life, they're usually just so annoying and idiotic self centered jerks, but I really do see why they're good main characters... Even if it's over used. - Sincerely an INTJ. (This is just my opinion bases on my experiences, don't come raging on me) Also, now I want an Villain's one, and I would love if you could write small stories just to introduce these type of characters as the main character/main villain. I would watch all of them.

[@MarygotaPlan]

The thing is, a lot of stuff about MBTI is subjective. Different people could have different experiences with other types be those positive or negative. With real life it's even more difficult. I haven't met any ENFJs irl so I can't and won't say about that (Even people of the same type can be quite different from one another). I also had very different experiences with some other types. Well, you know what I am trying to say. Also... What do you mean 'if I could write short stories'?

[@indyfire3269]

@@MarygotaPlan Real Life people are hard to Type anyway, because they are, you know, Humans. They might have some characteristics of a Type, but you will never know If they are Just acting Like that or Just Being that Type when other people are around, but in their head and in private they are completely different people. Thats why i Love Stories so much, you can See in a persons head and See their Point, what they think and how they feel. You can See and Interpret it from many different perspectives.

@@MarygotaPlan I mean like a series of Chronicles of some sort, presenting a character in a video format, with you narrating it, showing his motives and how would they behave in certain situations. Like, doing some sort of introduction of an character in an "RPG like introduction" type of moment, when you first meet your companions and you tell a short story about your character background and his motives.
