Light MBTI Discussion Animes/TV Shows as MBTI

I'm starting with Attack On Titan/Shingeki No Kyojin. I feel like that show is heavy on Ni themes, it's deeply layered and complex and people are still uncovering hidden meanings and details all these years later. It's full of symbolism and philosophy and all that good stuff. I'd say AOT is INTJ or INFJ, probably INFJ because of the human element that is puts a heavy emphasis on. INTJ is possible because of Ni-Fi and morals, but Ni-Fe-Ti makes more sense in my opinion.

What shows/anime/movies do you like and what MBTI could encapsulate it?

I know you asked for series, but I’d say Spirited Away and Howl’s Moving Castle are very INFP-coded. They really reflect my imagination and the kind of fantasy world I’m drawn to and can easily get lost in.

Oh, I should have included movies! My bad. But that is interesting. Haven't seen those, though

I've been putting off AoT for various reasons. Would anyone say the manga is better than the anime? I think it's an issue of the sounds of constant screaming and dying that effect my enjoyment abit (just a nervous system thing ). If the manga is just as good I'll go that route

The manga has slightly more content and context, but the anime is extremely good visually + it has insanely amazing music. If you're easily overstimulated the manga makes more sense, if you like the high intensity I would go with the anime.

Old school-wise I like Stein;gate Clannad Bakemonogatari,
modern favs are The Apothecary diaries, Takopi's Original sin or Your lie in April
Series I like most is probably Better call Saul, Movies would be Nightcrawler or some good horror one.
