Today, I'm gonna introduce a weird habit of Japanese people.
Do you know your blood type?

For example, my blood type is A. People with the blood type A is considered as honest and tidy. 

People with the blood type B is considered that they do things at their own pace. 

People with the blood type O is considered as not detailed oriented.

People with the blood type with AB is considered as very unique since the blood type is pretty rare.

Not only personality, but people sometimes believe that we can guess if two people have a good chemistry or not based on their blood types.

I have no idea why Japanese people started to think like this, but I think it's similar to psychological test.

If you look up about blood type and personality on Japanese website, there are so many results. Moreover, I found some websites about scientific evidences of why the blood types are related to personality(I'm not sure if it's true or not haha).   

It's pretty interesting that I've never heard about blood type and personality in the US. It's really common in Japan!
