The personality profile commonly associated with Deku is INFJ – primarily Introversion, Intuition, Feeling and Judgment. This then translates into his incredible judgment in combat, especially after the second season when he develops more control. He then applies this to his own understanding of One For All. Deku's self-consciousness make him more of an introvert than other shо̄nen protagonists, but he is highly intelligent as well as empathetic, which enables him to not only care about the people around him but take enough of an interest in other people to collect copious amounts of data about their Quirks. On the other hand, what we'll call green protagonists (for the same reason as above) are characters that are still feeling, but a lot less extroverted and leaning more into intuition generally. It may be prudent to consider the orange protagonist the default when it comes to post- Dragon Ball battle shо̄nen, but only because of the sheer number of titles inspired by such characters. They usually have far more brooding and calculating characters as rivals, bringing characters like Vegeta, Sasuke, Uryū and Killua into their orbit. They will fight the world for their friends and overcome insurmountable odds through sheer force of will and conviction. Essentially, the Orange Protagonist is one whose personality type is largely charged by their Feeling and Prospecting traits – they do what they do based on feelings and not necessarily logic or what makes sense, and this is what also inspires their consistent breakdown of boundaries. Luffy have the same type – the ESFP, which also fits the idea that Luffy is a successor to Gokū as a shonen icon. If one were to take a look at the Myers-Briggs personality profiles of such characters (if one believes in that kind of thing), they would see an overwhelming number of them with variations of the same profile – regardless of their intro- or extraversion, the vast majority of mainstream shо̄nen protagonists have the Feeling and Prospecting elements to their personality, which accounts for their lofty desires and emotionally charged journeys. The Big Three protagonists Son Gokū Hunter x Hunter MC Gon Freecss JUJUTSU KAISEN MC Yuji Itadori Haikyuu! protagonist Shо̄yo Hinata, the titular character from Akane-Banashi even Emma from The Promised Neverland and various others fall into this category. Generally, popular shо̄nen protagonists have been empathetic and highly emotional types, and the orange protagonist generally has a lofty goal and a strong sense of justice. This ad-hoc category name is based on the tell-tale orange effects that *usually* adorn this kind of character. The impact of Dragon Ball is seen largely through the evolution of this kind of main character, who, for the sake of this analysis, we'll dub "orange protagonist". In the rise of shо̄nen during the Golden Age of Jump, a particular kind of protagonist began to emerge – an adventuring, fun-loving, simplistic kind of main character who is largely characterized by goodness and a happy-go-lucky outlook.
