The different blood types
Blood types are typically classified into four main groups: A, B, AB, and O. Each of these can further be categorized as RhD positive or RhD negative, resulting in a total of eight blood types.
Although there is no scientific evidence to substantiate the blood personality theory, it is a widely accepted belief in Japan that one’s blood type influences their personality.
The blood type personality theory has been developed through observational studies of individuals with the four blood groupings. While there isn’t concrete scientific proof linking blood type to personality traits, many Japanese people perceive it as having some semi-scientific basis.
During World War II, this theory was even utilized to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of soldiers, reportedly leading to the organization of battle groups based on blood type. Especially useful in a war, but maybe not so in peaceful relationships.
In contemporary times, the blood type personality theory is also employed to assess compatibility in romantic relationships.
Below are some of the characteristics commonly associated with each blood group:

- B: Best compatible with AB and worst compatible with A
- AB: Best compatible with AB, A, B, and O i.e. everyone’s type
- O: Best compatible with A
