Introduction
I have just turned 70. When I was young, I came across the “Blood Type Humanics” series written by Masahiko Nomi and I arrived at the following idea.
In general everything in this world follows the same evolutionary process -- inception, development and diffusion and finally a stationary state takes place. In this state something new is born.
This is the cycle of how things change but this cycle ends when a new thing is born.
Therefore, we need something to link the stationary state and the occurrence of a new thing.
There are four stages in the cycle:
Inception: Breaking new ground
Development: Growth
Sustentation: Preservation
Coordination: Linking disparate elements
The four blood type personalities described by Nomi seem to correspond to the human activities that take place in each of the above four stages. To be specific the correspondence is as follows:
Inception: Blood type B
Development: Blood type O
Sustentation: Blood type A
Coordination: Blood type AB
When I was 32 or 33, I self-published an essay about blood type humanics. About 70 unsold copies remain in my closet.
Maybe because I am blood type B, I always pay attention to blood type B celebrities such as Shinzo Abe, the current prime minister of Japan, Kakuei Tanaka, the 40th prime minister who was called Toyotomi Hideyoshi of the modern age, Noboru Takeshita, the 74th prime minister, and Hideki Tojo, statesman, general in the Imperial Japanese Army and the 27th prime minister at the time of the 2nd World War.
Blood type B celebrities in the sporting world include Mao Asada (former competitive figure skater), Michiko Kihara (swimmer), Ichiro Suzuki (baseball outfielder), Hideo Nomo (retired baseball pitcher), and Shigeo Nagashima (former baseball player and manager).
In the entertainment field, I can name Hisaya Morishige (actor), Mitsuko Mori (actress) , Kiyoshi Atsumi (an actor known for his role as Tora-san), Ken Takakura (an actor who often portrayed a stoic character), and Toshiyuki Nishida (an actor recently recovering a serious illness).
Among the younger generation, there is Mana Sakura (a porn star and novelist) and Nana Suzuki (a popular fashion model and TV character).
