This research showed that five archetypes contributed to Sinclair's journey. Sinclair is a representation of the hero archetype. In contrast, the other two archetypes (Mentor and Herald) provide support and strength to Sinclair to start his adventure till adventure ends. The rest (Shapeshifter and Shadow) provide challenges and tests for Sinclair to make Sinclair learn more deeply about his life and be confident in his abilities.  This study also found that in Demian, Sinclair experienced three stages consisting of twelve phases based on the hero's journey understanding. Sinclair's journey is also very much suitable for the four stages and characteristics of bildungsroman. Through the contribution of the archetypes and the stages that Sinclair had in advance, it can be concluded that each archetype has a significant role in the stages of Sinclair's journey to help him reach the end of the story and find his true identity.
