 |  Subject: You are What You BLEED in Japan  Sat Feb 09, 2008 9:12 am | |
| In Japan you are what you bleed, Blood type is a common way of defining temperament and personality much like horoscopes in western countries.
It all started in 1931 in Japan. Furukawa Takeji (1891–1940) proposed
that there was a link between blood type and personality after working
in the administration department of a high school and observing the temperamental
differences between applicants.
The interest in blood types in Japan grew as a reaction against Western
racism. Scientists in the west found that type B was common in Asia, but
rare in Caucasians. As type B was typical in animals, they argued that
Asians were inferior, lower on the evolutionary scale. Japanese scientists
were keen to disprove this ludicrous theory, debate continued and it became
a popular “ology.”Each blood type has a personality profile :
Type A
People with blood type A have a deep-rooted strength that helps
them stay calm in a crisis when everyone else is panicking. However,
they tend to avoid confrontation, and feel very uncomfortable
around people. A types are shy and sometimes withdrawn. They seek
harmony and are very polite, but all the same feel that they never
really fit in with others. A types are very responsible. If there
is a job to be done, they prefer to take care of it themselves.
These people crave success and are perfectionists. They are also
very creative, and the most artistic of all the blood types, most
likely because of their sensitivity.
People with blood type A are also likely to be considered classic
"type A's": stressed and conscientious. In anime, people
like Hotohori are type A's. The Third Hokage, Haruno Sakura, Hotohori, Heero Yui, Keiko
(Kayko) Yukimura
Type B
People with blood type B are the most practical of the blood
groups. They are specialists in what they do. When they start
a project, they spend extra time understanding and trying to follow
directions than others might. When they are doing something, all
of their attention is focused on it. They tend to stick to a goal
and follow it through to the end, even if it seems impossible.
They tend to be less than cooperative, as they like to follow
their own rules and their own ideas. They are individualists.
B type people pay attention to their thoughts a little more than
their feelings, and therefore can sometimes seem cold and serious.
People with blood type B are often considered more relaxed, freewheeling,
and unconventional than other types, although not necessarily to
an unacceptable degree. In anime, the genki, off-the-wall types
are type B, along with any kind of well-intended character who's
ruled by their impulses. Naruto, Duo Maxwell, Miaka, Nuriko, Tasuki, Sagara Sanosuke
Type O
People with blood type O people are outgoing, energetic and social.
They are the most flexible of the blood types. They easily start
up projects but often have trouble following through because they
give up easily. They are flighty and not too dependable. O types
always say what's on their mind. They value the opinion of others
and like to be the center of attention. Also, people with O blood
are extremely self-confident.
Type O, the most "average" blood type, is considered
the best type in Japan. Quatre, Saito Hajime, Kamiya Kaoru, Tamahome
Type AB
People with blood type AB are hard to categorize. They can have
characteristics on both ends of the spectrum at the same time.
For instance, they are both shy and outgoing. They easily switch
from one opposite to another. AB people are trustworthy and responsible,
but can't handle it when too much is asked of them. They don't
mind doing favors or helping out, as long as its on their own
conditions. People with this blood type are interested in art
and metaphysics.
AB is considered the worst blood type. In predictability-loving
Japan, they're loose cannons. They also like to set their own conditions
and reserve the right to drop out when things don't meet their expectations.
They're known to be sensitive and considerate—at times—but
it just isn't enough to balance out the flaws in this blood type.
For a while, some companies tried dividing their employees into
work groups based on blood type, and no one wanted to work with
the AB group. Anime villains are likely to be type AB."Kabuto from naruto is AB"
