Update 24/04/2025: I may be reading too much into things but her lack of dream (perhaps emotional inertia? Due to how she's just doing things as they appear to be) yet yearning to feel the passion of chasing dreams herself...merging her desires to others' to the point where they feel like like her own...sounds a lot like Sx9 tbh She seems too confrontational and doesn't exhibit the "meekness" of Sx9 tho so I'm not sure, for now I still stand by So7 just because of her internalized gluttony and how despite everything, she still feels guilty of "using" others' dreams as a means to finding her own passion. She plays the knight in shining armor but she's always craving for more, which is why she holds back her indulgence. However, that was before she met Ceras, someone who has so many dreams and isn't afraid to admit and work hard for them. No holding back indulgence, and Ceras instructs Izumi to do just that by making sure Izumi enjoys her time as an idol, even when initially under the guise of a "contract" (a.k.a her So7-esque way of holding back her indulgence over "using" others dreams by making it transactional and limited in time, also very head triad-esque of her to plan it that way) I think this thread compares and contrasts the pride in servitude of So2 Kozue (who feels seen only through her efforts of covering for others' dreams) vs the gluttony in servitude of So7? Izumi (who gains satisfaction through "using" others' dreams as her own) well in my opinion https://x.com/hakuginfuyu/status/1914531061649887533 Update: Based on translated summaries I read online, she reads as an idealistic So7 to me so far with her goal of wanting to represent others' dreams by reaching them for them herself so that those dreams come true in a way. Also considering Sp3 but I'm still not convinced if she's an image type and driven to be secure in her resources? I can totally see her achievement-driven and humble repression of vanity (also being a reference person as well in the way she gives others an almost forceful advice), though, so I can also see why it's fighting to be the consensus. For anyone who voted her as such, if you're comfortable with sharing your perspective, I'd really love to hear your thoughts! Especially if you could offer response on why Sp3 > So7, since I still see more of the self-sacrificing gluttony in the way she **gains personal satisfaction** from fulfilling others' dreams and experiencing (while also excelling in) many things in the process out of pure curiosity and that aforementioned satisfaction which seems more self-indulgent than she makes it seems (as described by Ceras that expressing dreams to her is like dealing wishes with the Devil, which doesn't sound like Sp3's Helpful Compulsion trait structure listed here: https://wiki.personality-database.com/books/enneagram/page/self-preservation-3-in-detail) Has that self-sacrificing gluttony and high curiosity as well but feel free to correct me if I'm wrong about anything. At first I considered So2 as well but she doesn't seem to relate to the "love need" and image-driven goal of an So2. E1 was also a possibility at first due to her bluntly perfectionistic and idealistic nature almost similar to SIFAS Shioriko's though she seems to still be open to new ideas. She didn't force the Hasunosora girls to quit being idols because of their lack of natural skill in that department like Shioriko did in S1 of SIFAS, though she does give quite the harsh criticism she's still open to the idea of them being idols but *not* in the idea of them winning Love Live and representing idols as a whole with their currently lacking and yet to be sharpened skills. -- Ignore this part below, her dom Fe is clear as day with how she analyzes others based on objective emotional metrics so well -- For now, I'm gonna type her as an ENTP as well based on her curious and internal logic-driven nature, and how it makes sense with So7 as well. While I considered ENFJ or ENTJ with her more visionary and goal-driven attitude at first, she's so far very interested in "sampling" whatever ways are possible to reach those goals rather than sticking to a plan on how to win the tournaments based on her observations towards the Hasunosora girls and how open she is to admiring them though giving criticism whenever she finds necessary, rather than say Lanzhu who immediately dismisses Yu's way of leading the club by heart instead of by efficiency. [Original Comment] Have no clue what her type is but her blind devotion towards Seras leads me to believe that she has a 6 in her tritype somewhere. The small scenes I could see of her with my limited Japanese knowledge (I can't find the translated episodes for the recent chapters) also sees Ti-Fe axis in her with her quite unique perspective and also drive to win Love Live not for external benefits but to accomplish Seras' dream in her stead, which makes her eccentricities clash with the more traditional Te aux Ginko.
