INTP anime characters are considered unconventional thinkers who try to figure things out uniquely and innovatively. They like to be quiet and calculate and observe situations before jumping into them. They’re reasonable, creative people who prefer working alone instead of in a group setting.
We’ve seen several INTP anime characters. Most of them are incredibly intelligent and prompt at coming up with solutions. From Dr Stone’s Senku to Shiro from No Game No Life, let’s look at some of the best INTPs in anime.
1. Senku
One of the most popular INTPs who actively demonstrate their intellectual abilities is Senku Ishigami. He isn’t weak, but his strength lies within his ability to create anything as long as he has the suitable materials. He is quite a social and chill person. Audiences might argue that his personality doesn’t reflect introversion in any way, shape, or form.
However, the reason behind his INTP personality stems from his childhood experiences. Senku spent most of his childhood alone in a science lab.
2. L
L is one of the famous characters from Death Note and probably one of the most popular INTP anime characters out there. He leads the investigation to find Kira and carries most of the show, which revolves around a cat-and-mouse game between the killer and the detective.
He is good at planning and depicts many intellectual attributes of INTPs. Even in a tight spot, L was relatively calm and didn’t panic.
3. Armin Arlert
Among the roster of characters boasting immense physical attributes, Armin Arlert isn’t the strongest physically. However, he is pretty fluent at making strategies. He wishes to see the world become a better place. His main criteria while strategizing is to achieve his goal while keeping most of his peers alive.
Along with being a master strategist, he is very wise and good at analyzing situations. He can use whatever clues are at his disposal to make sense of the problem from scratch, making him a valuable asset to the squadron.
4. C.C.
Nicknamed the immortal Witch, C.C. is a popular character from Code Geass. She was a member of The Black Lights, a group that proclaimed themselves the Heroes of Japan. The reason behind her nickname is that she can heal from any injury.
C.C. has a traumatic past that changed her personality type to become an INTP. She doesn’t care about others, has little empathy for people, and is entirely detached from humans. Her coldness towards others changes when Lelouch takes an interest in her.
5. Shiro
This 11-year-old girl, Shiro, is from No Game No Life. However, audiences must not compare her with an average preteen. When working with her older brother, Sora, Shiro becomes an intellectual genius who can solve even the most challenging problems.
Sora isn’t a slouch; Shiro always helps him with solutions at the end of the day. She is certified NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training). She’s so introverted that her older brother is the only person she feels safe opening up around.
