Surely that means there’s someone inAtlus' Tokyoyou’re a lot alike, right? Ever wondered which of Jokers' confidants you resemble closest? Would you be a fast-talking politician like Yoshida or a reserved creator like Takemi? Well, sit back and relax, because we’ve got your government assigned kin ready for you!
WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD.
16ISTJ: Inspector - Sae
Sae’s reserved, responsible, and logical nature make her a perfect fit as an ISTJ. Inspectors scrutinize everything with an analytical eye, their directness allowing them to be incredibly thorough. However, Inspectors view dependency as weakness, shouldering everything themselves. Sae’s frustrations with being the sole provider for her family reflect this. Even though they can be viewed as cold, Inspectors have unshakeable integrity and will, which Sae demonstrates perfectly.
15ESTJ: Executive - Makoto
ESTJs are realistic and practical, making Makoto’s principled nature an obvious choice. Executives are excellent organizers, as well as being incredibly strong-willed and reliable. Makoto’s difficulty in relating to others her age reflects as an ESTJ, too–Executives have trouble relaxing and become uncomfortable in unfamiliar situations. Although Executives may focus a bit too much on social status (hello, Miss Class President), their honesty and desire to help others push them towards greatness.
14ISTP: Crafter - Takemi
Crafters are individualistic, curious individuals that delight in constructing and deconstructing systems to make them better. Takemi’s dedication to perfecting her medication shows both creativity and practicality, key traits of ISTPs.

However, Crafters struggle with boundaries and can be insensitive when pursuing their goals. Takemidoesperform medical experiments on a teenager, after all.
13ESTP: Persuader - Ohya
Persuaders passionately pursue problems as bold, action-oriented individualists. Ohya’s energetic and perceptive nature read ESTP through and through. Still, Persuaders are prone to leaping before they look, as well as being insensitive and impatient. Ohya’s habit of snipping at others when frustrated with a problem are very ESTP, and her relentless (and reckless) chase for Kayo ring Persuader, too.
12ISFJ: Protector - Haru
Quiet, warm, and altruistic, Haru fits ISFJ perfectly. Her practical skills with gardening, throughness when growing coffee, and reliable nature point to Haru being a Protector. Sadly, ISFJs' giving natures are often taken advantage of, and Protectors overload themselves all too frequently (as shown when Haru nearly fainted from exhaustion from all her responsibilities). Still, Protectors' are enthusiastic allies and sensitive friends, making them valuable to any team.
11ESFJ: Consul - Kawakami
ESFJs have a very strong sense of duty and community, taking it upon themselves to connect with those who need help. Kawakami’s dedication to her students and readiness to give her time and energy to them shows strong Consul traits. However, ESFJs are notoriously concerned with their image and social status; Kawakami’s deal with the Takases and hiding her job as a maid shows fear of how others view her, although she overcomes this eventually.
10ISFP: Artist - Yusuke
ISFPs are open-minded individualists who love pushing social conventions by experimenting with beauty and aesthetics. Additionally, Artists' curious, passionate nature points directly to Yusuke. However, ISFPs are plagued with fluctuating self-esteem and take criticism poorly. Remember when he collapsed in a museum because a stranger said they didn’t like his painting? Yeah, enough said.
9ESFP: Performer - Sumire
A gymnast as the Performer–getting a bit on the nose, huh? Still, there’s no doubt Sumire fits the role of an ESFP perfectly; Performers often get caught in the moment, their vibrant and bold nature making them spontaneous entertainers.

Sumire’s outgoing nature and sensitivity to others' emotions point to her being a classic ESFP. Additionally, her sensitive and conflict-avoidant personality ring ESFP, too. She’s the queen of apologies, after all.
8INTJ: Architect - Akechi
Akechi as an INTJ is the least surprising thing on this list. Architects' independence, rationality, and strategic nature are so Akechi he couldn’tnotbe one. Architects are jacks-of-all-trades, innovatively approaching their goals with unrivaled determination–and yes, a 3-year-long murder-revenge plan certainly shows dedication. However, INTJs are prone to arrogance, believing others to be stupid and incapable. Akechi states multiple times how little he thinks of the people around him, so his placement as the Architect is an obvious one.
7ENTJ: Commander - Shido
Sorry to any ENTJs who desperately don’t want to be Shido, but it’s the most natural placement for him. ENTJs are natural-born leaders, possessing unrivaled charisma and confidence. Commanders enjoy long-term plans and being challenged–surely you could consider a toppling of the government a challenge, right? Commanders cut to the root of every problem they face with determination and efficiency. However, ENTJs are prone to coldness and ruthlessness, willing to do almost anything for their goals. Once again, toppling the government. Also, murder.
