I'm sure others have seen the series here ... Opinions on the types of the characters?
The only typings I'm absolutely confident in:
Shinji: Ni-IEI 9w1 sp/so
Asuka: Se-ESTp 8w7 sx/so
Misato: Fi-IEE 7w6 sx/so
Kaji: EIE
Kensuke: ILE

I've never heard of an INFp-9w1.
Has anyone else seen these? I guess there's just two so far. 1.11 and 2.22. The first one is more or less a revamp of the animation, but the second is pretty much completely new stuff (or I have a very shitty memory).
Shinji: LII?
Rei: ILI?
Misato: ESE?
Asuka: SLE?
Ikari: LIE? LSI?
Mari: ILE?
Kaji: SEI?
Shinji is an IEI, yeah. Don't know about Rei... Probably not ILI, though.
Shinji: 1D Se certainly, and the sensitive type - IEI works
Rei: clearly ILI. Zero emotional expression, detached from reality
Asuka: SEE. SLE is also plausible
Ikari: some Beta?
I don't remember enough to comment on the others but I will rewatch it at some point.
Asuka seems Fi>Ti to me. Could Ikari be LSI?
After watching a few episodes, yeah, Rei is probably ILI-Ni. Why ESI?
Seems to weigh more towards Ni+Fi than average ILI.
''Why don't you trust your fathers work?'' seems Fi-HA to me. Although this could also be interpreted as Te-Creative i guess. Still interested in your ESI typing for Rei? She doesn't seem Se-Creative to me, though she clearly is Se valuing.
Also, is Asuka SLE or SEE? Clearly Se-dom, but can't decide between Ti-Fe/Fi-Te
Yeah, i figured. Also, Se+>Se-. Do you think Shinji is SLI? Why?
Asuka fits exactly the picture I have for Se-SEE, this subtype could be mean imo. They're like the stereotypical tsundere bad boy. Imo, their Fi seems weak because of the focus on Se/Te. But I see her as Gamma more than Beta, she doesn't seem like she values Fe.
Rewatching some of the ones i don't really remember.
''Man fears the darkness, so he scrapes away at it with fire.''
Rei confirmed for Ni-dom at least...
Ritsuko - LII?
Kaji = Clear EIE
Ima be honest, when I saw this a long time ago, I related a lot with Rei's character. She's almost a poster child for Schizoid Personality Disorder.
This scene seems pretty fitting for her.
good bye
Rei is a depressed ESE. :-D
It could be extracted from some scenes that Gendo might have his way with her sometimes, so her personality might be a result of that. I'm pretty sure she is ESI-Fi though.
Is Rei really Se creative? Well, i guess Te creative isn't exactly fitting either.
I think Rei is EII.
I liked how that video was creepy and campy at the same time. Feminine hypnotization.
It's absurd to say that she possesses any kind of force or is in touch with immediate reality as Se creative types are. She's essentially a prototypical Ni leading character - otherworldly and detached. She doesn't have any kind of emotional expression either (or much communication in general) IIRC, it fits ILI very well.
She doesn't have no emotional expression, she smiles when she talks or is reminded of Daddy Gendou. Hardcore seeking daddy is Te seeking.
But yeah Se ego is ridiculous for her. She is waif af.
I think its more like shes an archetypal product of the mind of the writer/producer, such that you can imagine she's more of an anima than a stand alone being. judged in light of that man behind her (assuming its a man) one must ask, when typing such a fantasy character, and I mean fantasy in the technical sense, what is she supposed to be to him? that is her personality
ESI's have +Ni HA, and HA's are sometimes even more noticeable than base. Her Fi base is pretty noticeable too; her top priority is her attachments, mainly whatever she has with Gendo (although later she develops a liking for Shinji as well). She is proper, obedient, and of phlematic temprament (IJ), traits that fit ESI-Fi much more than ILI-Ni. Just tell me how she is an NT in any way. Also, Benefit ITR with Shinji works well (there is a scene where she slaps him for criticizing his father; that was very tellling of her type as ESI -- scolding Shinji for his disloyalty, and defending her important attachment -- all telling of ESI type).
She is a clone, and she is traumatized. She doesn't show any Fe, except in a few scenes, but I don't think Fe is her PoLR. ILI's tend to drop verbal bombs and don't care how they affect others. Rei is always polite and while she almost never shows what she is feeling, she has very strong emotions that appear when she "connects" with them, like in the Armisael scenes.
Evidence that she is +Se creative can be observed during Remiel's attack; she does a very fine job of defending EVA-01, even at the expense of her own safety. This is ESI trait. Since she is Fi subtype, her creative is not very noticeable at first glance, but it definitely is not Ne. In fact, there is no Ne anywhere in her because it is her PoLR.
The first time I attempted to type her, I also typed her ILI (INTP back in MBTI years ago when I was a rookie), but I realized ESI was much more fitting after meeting some ESI's IRL. It really is a case of having experienced the type first hand to know that she is one.

I disagree with that.
Fair point (for Fi valuing)Her Fi base is pretty noticeable too; her top priority is her attachments, mainly whatever she has with Gendo (although later she develops a liking for Shinji as well).
ILIs can definitely be polite and unassuming, they aren't always rude.ILI's tend to drop verbal bombs and don't care how they affect others. Rei is always polite and while she almost never shows what she is feeling, she has very strong emotions that appear when she "connects" with them, like in the Armisael scenes.
Then you need to observe people more. DCNH proves that you can have focus on determine functions giving them prominence, such could be the case with Ni (in this case Ni HA). In any case, her dreamy appearance is consistent with ESI. ESI-Fi's usually seem Ni bases.
Not any Fi valuing. It could fit -Fi as HA or base, but ILI's aren't really like that.Fair point (for Fi valuing)
No, but they are certainly more rude than ESI on a constant basis. Rei is never rude, except when somebody messes with one of her important attachments.ILIs can definitely be polite and unassuming, they aren't always rude.
the HA thing is way overblown, if anything most the HA manifestations are somehow linked to creative so its a matter of interpretation as to whether HA ever directly manifests. Even Se shit usually comes out as Ni creative bragging, its more about conveying the perception of Se via conveyance of a Ni claim "I'm a super hard ass (insert some future or past imaginary claim)" than actually being a super hardass that is plain to see. The HA thing being obvious is like Ni-ception amounting to wishful thinking
I don't need any more unsolicited advice from you.
Logically, being familiar with the types also means being familiar with variation within the types -- which obviously exists because there are more than 16 kinds of people in the world with a variety of different experiences and genetic traits. Subtype theories do not explain "that" this variation exists (which again is obvious), they assert that particular traits vary within type -- which are (ideally) unrelated to or at least clearly separable from actual type-related traits.
As it stands, DCNH traits overlap heavily with basic socionic traits which not only corrupts how people use the basic theory, it provides a great excuse for bad socionics typings -- which is the only thing subtype theories are ever actually used for in practice, as your posts clearly demonstrate. Or you could, y'know, actually learn Model A and its interpretation instead of using experimental subtype theories to dilute its predictions at will.
We can solve this dispute by her being EII 4D Ni 4D Fi cough cough
It looks like you got stuck at "classical socionics" like Sol did. It also seems like you are a follower of Occam's razor. But you have a point; it makes more sense to try to type first in the classical manner. But the thing is that when one gets proficient in the subtype theories, it might be easier to identify them first (or everything at the same time).
.
Y'all can suck my Occam's razor dick. Here are my typings:
REI: EII
SHINJI: IEI
ASUKA: SEE
MISATO: SLE (I would accept ILE for her too, but she's framed as a sensuous woman)
KAJI: Fe ego (I've considered SEI, EIE, and IEI)
GENDOU: LIE?
RITSUKO: ILI
KENSUKE: ILE
TOJI: SEE?
MARI: LIE or alpha NT
