Anime has become a global phenomenon due to its diverse cultural representations, relatable characters, and unique storytelling. However, there is limited research on the relationship between character personality and popularity. The aim of this study is to understand the relevance of the characters' personalities to the audience's evaluation of various characters. This study analyzed the correlation between the MBTI personality evaluations of characters in anime and their popularity, based on the data of the personality of each animation character reviewed by audiences. In this study, 885 characters from 200 anime aimed at a male audience were selected as a sample for research. The results showed that personality traits such as introversion, intuition, and thinking had an impact on the popularity of female characters but not male characters. The overall results were influenced by the larger sample size of female characters. By addressing this question, the study can contribute to the design of a character's personality and overall success in anime.
由于其多样的文化表现、令人产生共鸣的角色以及独特的叙事方式，动漫已成为一种全球现象。然而，关于角色性格与受欢迎程度之间的关系，研究却很有限。本研究的目的是了解角色性格与观众对各种角色评价的相关性。基于观众对每个动漫角色性格的评价数据，本研究分析了动漫角色的MBTI性格评估与其受欢迎程度之间的相关性。在本研究中，从200部面向男性观众的动漫中选取了885个角色作为研究样本。结果表明，内向、直觉和思维等性格特质对女性角色的受欢迎程度有影响，但对男性角色没有影响。总体结果受到女性角色样本量较大的影响。通过解决这个问题，该研究可为动漫中角色性格的设计和整体成功做出贡献。
