You are what you bleed !!!

[spirit]

Certainly, some of you (if not most) who watch anime as well as read manga, have already noticed that when a character is created it often comes with the widely profound characteristics, which often includes information regarding their body anatomy, look, psyche, specials features/powers etc… but also a blood type! Personality traits by blood type, huh??? That's just a Japanese concept ^^ And something that honestly intrigues me…
since the very first time I read about the blood type among a character's description in some manga. Almost all Japanese are aware of their blood type. In Japan, many believe certain personality traits are determined by one’s blood type. It is so pervasive that many companies place employees in certain jobs based on their blood type. Seriously talking, they usually ask it when you register in websites, in job interviews, when you meet a new person he/she asks your blood type before your age, blood type in the office is usually a conversation theme… It's like a horoscope, in fact in many Japanese magazines there is a “blood type horoscope” section. As you can see they are pretty obsessed with it... ^^
Therefore, Let’s get to know each other better! ^^
I highly encourage you to select your blood type just to find out more about ourselves ^^ .... it's fun!
Here, you can find some interesting information about each blood group:

The most popular blood group in the US is O - 45% of population while in Japan - 30%.
Group A is the second the most popular blood type in the US – 40%, yet in Japan it’s the most popular – 38%.
B in the US have 11%, in Japan – 22%.
AB group – US, only 4%, Japan – 10%.

Type O – The Warrior
• trendsetter
• loyal
• passionate
• self-confident
• independent
• ambitious
• vain
• jealous
• social
• born to be a leader
• arrogant
• extroverted
• outgoing

Type A – The Farmer
• calm
• patient
• sensitive
• responsible
• overcautious
• stubborn
• unable to relax
• perfectionist
• shy
• patient
• self-spoken
• conformist

Type B – The Hunter
• individualist
• dislike custom
• strong
• optimistic
• creative
• flexible
• wild
• unpredictable does things the easy way
• thinking over feelings

Type AB – The Humanist
• cool
• controlled
• rational
• sociable
• popular
• critical
• sometimes standoffish
• balanced
• highly organized
• serious
• is a mix of the previous types


And here you have the compatibilities between types:
• B is compatible with other B and AB.
• AB is compatible with AB, B, A and O.
• O is compatible with O and AB.


And that's something I found bizarre & funny ^^
Japanese Blood type condom machine!!! lol

[kitty-kat]

[Koopaking]

[Ryuuzaki]

[RzXzB]

Type O That means I'm a Warrior go me lol

[nena-X3]

[spirit]

My blood is made of liquid platinum.

Ahhh, just select your blood type!!!! either way your post would be pointless!!! Just DO IT !!

[kai14]

i'd say i'm AB and a trend setter ^^

[leerock89]

Type B!!! Go Hunters!!!

[quietchat]

I'm pretty sure my blood is O, but according to your thing then I should be an A.

[Corwin]

Unfortunately I do not know my blood type, I know the only thing that was important, that when I went to donate blood and plasma, to help my lazy good for nothing roommates make the rent b/c all 3 of them came up short, I found out that I may or may not have Mad Cow Disease and as a result can never donate blood/plasma for money. So my best guess as to my blood type would have to be, and this is going to be corny, Beef Positive

[leerock89]

Meng, you calling it corny made it funny!!LOL!!

[spirit]

Type B!!! Go Hunters!!!

yeah, but it would be great if you VOTE!! ^^ I would like to see the results nice and neat in the table ^^
I bet we gonna have most ppl with 0 type....


hahaha, Corwin... that's comical!!

I thought that's an interesting topic to make.... especially because it has a lot in common with Japan as well as anime/manga characters... ;) Hope you like it! ^^

[soulten]

i wish i knew my blood type, my parents dont even know. kinda sad.

[Nahmu]

looks like i'm the warrior. i'm not sure how much credibility i can give a system which attributes personality to biology (i'm a pretty firm believer in nurture over nature) but it's still interesting to see how we are divided up.

[partyprobe]

What if im a mix of o and b

[Shigami]

Don't really know what type of blood is running through my vein's,and the description about blood type's didn't really help me a lot,since my character can change depending on my feelings and situation.
Anyway i took this test,which suppose to tell you what type blood you have judging by the you're answer's on the questions they gave you.
Here is what it said to me.
Your Inner Blood Type is AB.
Your personality is hard to define - you're very unconventional.
And even if your personality could be defined, it would be completely different next week!
Outgoing and shy, sensitive and thoughtless, you tend to have a very split personality.
This makes you unpredictable. You can be a total angel - and a total devil.

You are most compatible with: everyone

I think that's pretty much me.

[monsoon 10]

Pssh...my blood is pure mercury.

[AyumiBee]

i dunno my blood type too but ppl say that who loves eating meat is 0 ^^(my parents dunno my blood type too when i borned it wasn't determined just like in my bros case)

[strike7785]

Wow that is really funny. A blood type condum machine. I have never seen anything like it. Well anyways I am blood type O the most commen. I have been referred to most of what the Blood type O's represent and to me I am a warrior.

[Blooddrunk]

My blood type is AB!

[kitty-kat]

where are all the B's...it's so loney here in the Hunters!!!

[spirit]

where are all the B's...it's so loney here in the Hunters!!!

*smiles to Kitty-kat* you're not lonely!!.....
well... the group A is pretty empty! lol

interesting..... I kind of forecasted that 0 is goin to be the most popular among our society.

[Russkie]

I am not sure what my blood type is, and if I did know - why would I tell you this?

[Shigami]

So i know what kind of poison to put in you're drinkable liquior.

[Russkie]

Thats no excuse. Besides, I'm already immune to most poisons (arsenic, ricin, ect).

[blaariffic]

What if you bleed applesauce?o.o...

Well one reason for employers needing to know blood type is for medical reasons..
But maybe they are that superstitious cant say..never applied for a job in japan..

What if im a mix of o and b
Then your B according to biology.....according to this...uuh....
I dunno....
A mutant?..::D:?..jk...

Im a B or AB according to superstition and my actually way of acting...
And as opposed to what they suggest Im O....as are both my parents
As are the majority of people according to those and other statistics (in the western world) ....the universal blood donor...and the finicky acceptor...
Hooray recessive blood type!

[Yessy89]

i don't know what I am...wahhh!!!

[milo]

I do not know what type I am that is bad is it not but I am to lazy to go find what type I am and from what I see I have to many traits coming from all those groups I can be shy, can be standoffish, I think everyone has a little jealously, and I have been told by many people many guys that I am to senstive so who knows :3

[suune]

I'm exactly like my blood type... ^^'' (Blood type A)

[spirit]

I'm exactly like my blood type... ^^'' (Blood type A)

Wow, you're the first and only Type A, so far!!!!! nice!! at least we have one person with this type!!! ^^ You are unique.

Welcome to your doom.

[athrun0017]

damn i really wish i knew what my blood type is.. but i think you are missing some.. brb, gonna find out my type!

[spirit]

damn i really wish i knew what my blood type is.. but i think you are missing some.. brb, gonna find out my type!

you mean I'm missing some of the blood types? naaah, I don't think so ^^
There are also groups like let's say AB Rh+ or -
However, Japanese ppl don't care if Rh is positive or negative, they look only at the TYPE alone.
but you can't have A0 for example (not that I know of, never met a person with such a "condition")

OK> go and find out your TYPE! Then you mind check if the anime character you like... might (according to Japanese blood-concept philosophy) have some characteristics similar to yours, haha ^^

[blaariffic]

There is another I think...but its terribly rare
The rarest blood type found is called bombay blood (subtype h-h), found only in a Czechoslovakian nurse in 1961 and in a brother and sister in Massachusetts in 1968. [link1] (http://everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=500722)
[link2] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_type#Universal_donors_and_universal_recipien ts)

But they arnt counted because they are so unusually rare and generally fall under O unless otherwise found out....

Also..heres a nice blood type table of distribution[link] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_type#ABO_and_Rh_distribution_by_country) whilst on the the topic

[BlueSano]

i'm blood type A (the second A here) XD

Welcome to your doom.

Hmm, I am afraid I am not ammune to those - to the Laboratory!

[sleeper101]

mines AB+ is there a catigory for mine or does it fall under AB

[spirit]

mines AB+ is there a catigory for mine or does it fall under AB
I think I've said it before... that Rh+ or - doesn't really matter when it comes to Japanese concept of Blood Type vs personality... The only information that is important is the TYPE alone. SO yes, you are in AB group ^^
Hope, you're going to vote! I want to see more ppl voting! ^^

[Kalamare]

F**k! >< A warrior. Who am i gonna fight with? x]

I'm 0-negative ^^

[Shadow-San]

type O+ here!!!

[blaariffic]

type O+ here!!!
I forget if Im + or - though it doesnt really matter in this thread...
Ill have to dig up my lab book to find out ( I got my blood type in there from when we did blood tests....)..or I could ask my parents....hmm...

[spirit]

awww, it was an "open poll" which means everyone could see others results.... why can't I see now, who voted on what? Can anyone tell me?
Plus I want to see more ppl participating ;)

Guys, this so bad.... not even for the purpose of this thread... but in general... your life.
I mean, If accidently any of you would need to receive someone's blood... than it takes time to figure out what blood is good for you. time = saving someone's life. Otherwise, if someone gives you the wrong type of blood.. you could die.

[krazykandy]

even though i dont believe stuff like this.... ill play along with it
type B

Ahh yess... it's been a while... maybe even a long while since the last post in this thread.... but in my opinion it wasn't such a bad topic.
And since we have earned a number of new members... there might be some people interested in participating?
The question is pretty simple, I hope you'll find the answer. xD
I'm looking forward to get some interesting results (POLL)!!!!
