In this blog post, we will talk about the ISFP personality type. We will also describe 1o ISFP anime characters.
The ISFP personality type
ISFPs are gentle, generous people who take their relationship commitment seriously and look for long-term relationships. They are very reserved when it comes to expressing true feelings and opinions towards people. This can also cause them problems in intimate relationships with the partner, especially if he does not know or does not trust the feelings of an ISFP.
Those who have this habit of not expressing what they feel and what they want may be in life in situations where they feel overshadowed or even treated above others. Very practical and cynical by nature, not expressing feelings can make them even more acidic, reaching either to give up the relationship or to use that relationship only for personal gain.
However, this is not the case for all those in the ISFP typology, especially if they learn to communicate their feelings and personal needs. In general, ISFPs have a very warm and positive outlook on life and love and will not engage in relationships in which they feel they would benefit. They are loyal and offer support, satisfying their partner, having a great ability to love.
They do not like conflicts and dissensions, appreciating very much if they are accepted as they are. They need space to live their lives in their own way and will respect the need of others for intimacy and distance.
ISFPs are warm, generous who know how to take care of the other with a lot of depth, with emotional depth, rarely observable from the outside, except for those who know them well. Some people live with intensity, who experience emotions on a very intense level. Unusually among other SP, sensory-perceptual, they want and invest in long-term relationships.
To make people understand different personality traits, anime characters have been used to do this work. For example, this blog discusses ISFP anime characters. There are others as well, like the ISTJ anime characters or the ISTP.

He proves to be weak-willed at first when he leaves the team before the first few years come, feeling that he let down his entire team when they lost to Date Tech High even though they expected him.
After returning to Karasuno, he realizes that his will to play volleyball is much stronger than he thought and with the help of his teammates, he acknowledges his position as Karasuno’s ace (even though he still mocks Daichi for not having “As-like presence”) and gains self-confidence.

Conclusions
In this blog post, we talked about the ISFP personality type. We also described 1o ISFP anime characters.
ISFPs like to make others happy. This is typical for those with emotional preferences as a personality. This characteristic along with not expressing personal needs makes others take advantage of their kindness. If this happens, ISFPs can become harsh and cynical. They can come to think of themselves as victims and raise all sorts of barriers that separate them from those who hurt them.
Do you agree with our list? If you have any suggestions of what other ISFP anime characters we should write about, please let us know!
