Dragon Ball Z

[Gilly]

lol tv for kids omg dbz how lame what poor tasteless anime

ANYWAYS

Goku: ESE
Gohan: SEI
Piccolo: LSI
Krillin: EII
Chichi: ESI
Roshi: ILE
Bulma: LIE
Yamcha: EIE
Vegeta: SLE
Frieza: IEI
Kame: LII
Mr. Popo: EII

There really isn't anything substantial to these typings, as per just about any of fictional characters, but I'm having fun watching it and thinking about their types.

[Gilly]

King Kai: IEE
Tien: ESI maybe

[Gilly]

Proof that Bulma is Gamma:



3:45 or so

[discojoe]

Goku's ESFp.

[Gilly]

Goku's ESFp.

Actually I was hoping someone would bring this up, because I had considered it seriously, and I see it as on-par with ESE. It would make more sense with my original typing of Gohan as IEI (E4, Benefit with Chichi), as well as with Chichi being a blatant ESI, and even with Bulma as LIE, if the original Dragon Ball series is taken into account. I had also considered, in this "form" of typings, ESI-Fi for Krillin, and perhaps ILI for Kame.

*shrug*

[Gilly]

The show does seem to give a more Gamma-esque view of the characters that are, IMO, obviously Beta: Piccolo, Vegeta, and Yamcha.

I agree that Chichi is ESI, but I also think Vegeta is too. Everything he says to anyone is pissed off Fi. He also blatantly doesn't give a shit if people like him or not.

[discojoe]

Vegeta reminds me a lot of Simon Cowell.

[Logos]

OVER 9000!!!

No way. Vegeta is SLE to the core. He doesn't care about anyone; he just wants power, no matter what it takes to get it. SLE stereotype, IMO.

[Cuddly McFluffles]

OVER 9000!!!

[Gilly]

lmao

[Gilly]

I dunno about Goku as Gamma...he's so forgiving, he always wants to let people live, "give them another chance." Seems kind of Delta. IEE is possible, I think.

[Gilly]

[Elro]

Which one was the green guy?

[Elro]

there were a lot of green guys. and the nongreen guys might have turned green on special occassions.

but perhaps you were thinking of http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Piccolo ?

I think so. Unfortunately the only thing I knew about him was that he was green, so it could well be some other green guy

[Gilly]

Fair enough. I wasn't exactly sure with the androids, to be honest. I do think that SEI works for 16, though.

SEE for 18; fair enough. Not sure it works for 17 though; maybe he is SLE? He does have a lot more of the "I'm the toughest being ever created ahahaha" kind of thing that is typical of Vegeta (obvious SLE IMO), which is never really seen at all from 18; she is confident, but she doesn't have this "I'm so special" way about her that 17 does. Maybe 17 is EIE?

[Gilly]

I can see where you're coming from Hostage Child, but I hesitate to type her as LSI mostly because she marries Krillin whom I have typed with some degree of confidence as IEE-Fi I think her lack of apparent "extroversion" could simply be non-valued Fe. I don't think it's unreasonable for an SEE to be that stoic or whatever. ESI is possible too, I guess, but again I hesitate to give her asymmetrical relations with the two people she is closest to in the series. Perhaps LIE is an option?

I would say Dende is most likely IEI, like Gohan.

[Gilly]

[tcaudilllg]

The show has a heavy communitarian influence. Goku is communitarian, so that should help you get a grip on his aspects.

Communitarian SEE reacts to oncoming motive forces which are themselves acting according to a tradition. You could see the whole "tournament" thing in that light: Goku does make the point that evil seems to be seeking him out after Cell is defeated. Goku himself is always changing his course toward or away from others depending on what they signal to him: if his nemesis asks him to take his hand and bury the hatchet, the Goku is fine with that. He'll let bygones be bygones no matter what. The only person in the entire series who he actually killed was Kid Buu, if I recall.

I agree with many, but why vegeta 3w4? He seems totally 8w7 to me, even stereotypically

[Gilly]

He's all about his heritage, living up to the Saiyan name; I think the self-ideation as "the most powerful person in the universe" is quite clearly the "success" he is trying to live up to. It has nothing to do with self-preservation or getting anything in particular; it really doesn't have anything to do with what the power GETS him. He just wants to be the strongest for the sake of being the strongest, as if it were a title to be held. That, IMO, is quintessentially type 3. Also the emphasis on being the "special Saiyan," both as the prince of all Saiyans and the one who was believed to have the potential to be the legendary Super Saiyan (all that "destiny" shit), is telling of 4 wing, IMO. There is absolutely nothing 7-like about Vegeta whatsoever.

[Pookie]

I am a grown Adult, but childish things make me very happy.

Here's my take on the types of the various Dragon Ball Z characters.

Goku - ENFP IEE

Gohan - ISFP SEI

Future Gohan - ISTJ LSI

Goten - INFP IEI

Vegeta - INTJ LII

Kid Trunks - ESTP SLE

Future Trunks - ISTJ LSI

Piccolo - INTP ILI

Kami - INFJ EII

Frieza - ISTJ LSI

Cell - ESFJ ESE

MajinBuu - ISFP SEI

Yamcha - ISFJ ESI

Tien - ISTP SLI

Krillin - ENTP ILE

Nappa - ESTJ LSE

King Kai - ISTP SLI

Chi-Chi - ENFJ EIE

Bulma - ESFP SEE

[717495]

Thank you for not putting something like ESTJ SEI-INTj-Ni 2w6w9 sx/sx/sx adventurous or something just to confuse the hell out of everyone. So I know you're using or trying to use socionics, thanks

But yeah, I don't care about this thread, I just hate people who give like 1,000 typings of a bunch of people.

[EyeSeeCold]

Bulma + Goku .

Goku's too forgiving for Gamma, not aggressive enough for Beta, too peaceful for Alpha.

Bulma is obvious if you've read the comics.

Poli... Level with me here.

Can you really say that you identify with a character if you don't know their instinctual stacking? Can you really say that a character's personal narrative was inspiring to you if you don't even know if they are j-sub or p-sub? Can you?

[717495]

YES'M.

[Creepy-male]

Curious typings. Why is Vegeta an LII? An individual who believes in caste and class, and his "warrior heritage", and is generally perpetually trying to achieve the top of the pile in combat power, an LII? He seems clearly Se ego in Socionics terms.

@EyeSeeCold

And "too peaceful for Alpha"? As opposed to what? Are Alphas now the war-mongering quadra, or the saccharine diabetes sunshine and rainbow robot unicorn quadra?

[Pa3s]

Nice list! I don't know every episode but it seems to work. Piccolo was my favourite.

lol, I haven't seen Aleksei here for a while.

[1981slater]

My random thoughts:

Goku LSE
Piccolo Sr SLE
Piccolo Jr LSI
Bulma IEE
Vegeta SLE
Krilin EII
Master Roshi ILE
Chi Chi ESI

[Pa3s]

Piccolo Sr SLE
Piccolo Jr LSI

That could work, too. I meant the later (younger) version of Piccolo when he starts to be one of the good guys.

[EyeSeeCold]

@EyeSeeCold

Those Alphas just can't let people be. They have a need to observe and criticize(even if its for generating activity).

It's a surprise ILI is the Critic.

[Creepy-male]

I... what? I don't think we're talking about the same Alpha quadra. How do you mean "a need to observe and criticise"?

[Gilly]

Goku: SEE-Se 8w7 sx/so
Gohan: IEI-Fe 4w3 sx/sp
Vegeta: SLE-Ti 3w2 sp/so
Piccolo: LSI-Se 8w9 sp/sx
Bulma: LIE-Ni 7w6 sp/so
Trunks: EIE-Ni 3w4 sp/sx
Master Roshi: ILE-Ne 7w6 sp/so
ChiChi: ESI-Fi 6w5 sp/sx
Krillin: LII-Ne 9w8 so/sx
Yamcha: EIE-Ni 3w4 sx/so
Frieza: IEI-Ni 3w4 sx/sp
Cell: SLE-Ti 8w9 sp/sx (????)
Majin Buu: SEI-Si 9w8 so/sx
Bobbity: ILE-Ti 6w7 sp/sx
Kami: EII-Fi 1w9 so/sp

[Gilly]

Actually Gamma is the quadra most known for such, ahhh, besserwisserism.

[EyeSeeCold]

I... what? I don't think we're talking about the same Alpha quadra. How do you mean "a need to observe and criticise"?

Alphas are Social Analysts.

[glam]

Are Alphas now the war-mongering quadra, or the saccharine diabetes sunshine and rainbow robot unicorn quadra?

neither.

btw cutesy, inoffensive, good-for-the-whole-family stuff tends to be Delta (not Alpha.)

[Gilly]

Yeah but unfortunately Alpha is also saturated with ridiculous cutesy nonsense via my illustrious duals, whose average IQ falls somewhere in the 70s.

[Pookie]

Curious typings. Why is Vegeta an LII? An individual who believes in caste and class, and his "warrior heritage", and is generally perpetually trying to achieve the top of the pile in combat power, an LII? He seems clearly Se ego in Socionics terms.

Well, theres a couple of things that are obvious with Vegeta. Vegeta is definitely an I, he deals with himself first and foremost. He is also definitely a J, you can just see it reek out of his pores.

I struggled with whether he was a T or a jaded F, but because of his ability to captilize on opportunity i felt T was preferred.

Lastly came N. Now if you watch the show, there's nothing that really surprises vegeta. As other characters are exclaiming "Oh NO!" Vegeta is level headed and quick to respond with "Of course, you bumbling imbeciles!" There's nothing implicit that ever gets past vegeta, and that speaks of Pattern spotting ability. I.E. having a strong Ne and Ni, which is exclusive to INXJ's.

[Gilly]

Hey, please learn Socionics, k thx.
