Yukimura’s MBTI: ENFJ
Was requested to do Yukimura’s next! And we’ll have Ieyasu after our cinnamon roll. And after THAT, will be Saizo! Keep your requests going! Also, I will eventually revisit all lords and give a thorough breakdown of what each MBTI personality means once I’ve assigned them all.
Something unique about my analysis: I don’t like to permanently assign a letter. It’s already been proven that it’s impossible to fit 100% in a single bucket. An introvert can be an extrovert depending on the people and situation around them. Instead, people are now assigned percentages as a better way of defining themselves, so I will do the same. This is long, so there’s a Read More!
Extrovert (E) dominant of 88%: Introvert of 12%. I think this was PRETTY easy to figure out. Yukimura LOVES being around others. He loves being around his brother, Sasuke, Saizo, MC, his family, his retainers - you name it. This guy does NOT lose energy. In fact, I’d say he GAINS energy when he’s surrounded by people. Nothing pumps him up more than to train with his men, to go into battle for Shingen, or even just to host a celebration in the hall with his family. He’s an extrovert through and through.
So WHY did I even bother assigning him an introverted percentage? B/c he has shown glimpses of times when he needs to be alone - most specifically when he feels like he’s royally messed up on something. In one particular event story, when Yukimura failed to catch MC after she was thrown by Kotaro, Yukimura COMPLETELY retreated to his own room to reflect over his own actions and his failures. Even in other event stories, particularly Saizo’s, when he feels at fault with something - he’s gone. He’s quiet. And he’s very different from the rambunctious happy young man he usually is. It’s simply not possible to be 100% Extroverted, and even our bubbly cinnamon roll needs time alone when he’s feeling more than just a little stressed.
Intuitive (N) dominant of 76%: Observant of 24%. Let’s be honest here. Yukimura’s not observant. He simply isn’t. He misses a LOT of details, neither does he particular care for the extra nuances. Yukimura is a straightforward man, and he only sees the big picture and what’s laid out in front of him. But he has shown multiple times to be quite intuitive. One of Saizo’s POV event story had him explicitly thinking that the “little lord” has a tendency to notice things that even the most observant people fail to see. But it’s not because Yukimura literally SEES it. He senses it with his intuition - PARTICULARLY when something is wrong with Saizo who is the master of lying and hiding feelings. He’s also has a famous big heart - holding grudges are simply NOT his thing to do, and S’s in particular are famous for holding grudges. And of course, Yukimura fights on instinct, not on observational skills.
But that’s not to say his intuition could be rather OFF at times, such as reading the atmosphere or even overthinking on a “feeling” that something was wrong. Granted, honing your intuitive skills actually come with experience and time, but in the case of Yukimura, his intuition sometimes is simply WRONG. And he has observational skills of his own - he’s pays PARTICULARLY close to battle moves that’s for sure! He still sees the little things, so with that in mind, his N isn’t the highest of them all.
Feeling (F) dominant of 89%: Thinking of 11%. Is it any question that Yukimura is an emotional man? He charges into battle on passion, he loves intensely anyone around him, he cries, he gets angry, he laughs in joy. Bottom line: Yukimura FEELS and in no way denies his own feelings. Nothing was easier to assign the F to Yukimura.
He does have his logical side though. Particularly when the battles go wrong, and he’s helping people escape. There’s still an inherently deep feeling of saving his men, helping the people that course through his veins when escaping, but his strategy of escaping becomes much more logical. He knows which men should hide first, which men should run, which men still has the strength to stay behind and keep up the distraction. His T side is there, but only when he feels it’s necessary.
Judging (J) dominant of 63%: Perceiving of 37%. As I will repeat for anyone new: I don’t particularly like how these two last traits are named because they don’t match with the actual description. Perceiving people are more flexible, don’t follow a plan, and much more spontaneous. Judging people are those who go step by step, plan extensively, and can be particularly bad at adapting.
Yukimura is a J. True, we don’t usually see him planning (Nobuyuki and Shingen seems to do most of that), but he definitely STICKS to the plan, and he sticks to it well. He never misses a single step in instructions, and I say he does a lot better when a plan is given to him than throwing him out into the situation for him to figure it out last minute. He’s also pretty big on tradition, keeping women separate from men, and gets VERY stubborn, all big elements of J. It isn’t super high though - mainly because he’s pretty easygoing and flexible to everyone else’s ideas. He’s always open to hear everyone’s thoughts, even if he disagrees with them, and he doesn’t get angry when things don’t go his way. All elements point to a more relaxed J.
