The argument for ESFJ that’s being made is just “people with Fe can also have ___ traits”. But so can people with Fi, and saying that Fe can as well doesn’t outrule that. I’d honestly like to see physical examples of her actions that shows Fe. Also, as a bit of a side note, I see a walking contradiction between ESFJ arguments, I know it’s not like you’re communicating with each other on this but still, you could at least read each others’ comments. User @Nino makes the argument that “Fi is a function that adapts the objective situation to itself, unlike Fe who adapts themselves to the objective situation.” Meanwhile, user @Keiran says “She couldn't adapt to the situation she was [in], but Kyoko did.” I agree with both of these statements, but when you put them together, it really makes it seem like Sayaka has Fi, wouldn’t it? (I normally wouldn’t use usernames for something like this but I figured they’re probably going to see this anyways and read me quoting their posts, no hard feelings and I have no intention of attacking anyone individually, just expressing how the argument isn’t convincing me) Like I quoted previously from @Nino, Fi adapts the environment & people around it to its own needs. A common example of Sayaka’s Fe that I see used is her healing Kyousuke because she couldn’t stand to see him in pain. She did do this to heal him from his pain, but it wasn’t just for that reason. Sayaka had just lost Mami, and she needed someone to care for her to make up for what she did not have anymore. She had Madoka still, but we never really see Sayaka in the original show ever come to Madoka for help for whatever reason. She had already been considering the wish to heal him for a while, but the loneliness that she felt after losing Mami was enough to pull the trigger and make her heal Kyousuke so that she would have someone to love her. Once she finds out her soul isn’t in her body anymore, she comes to the conclusion that she made her wish in vain because she could not ask Kyousuke out. This further goes to prove how she made her wish for Kyousuke to love her, because if it was really just about healing him, she would not be so distraught over losing him to Hitomi, so much that she turns into a witch. Sayaka making that wish so that Kyousuke would love her is one of the most grand examples of her Fi, because it shows how she adapted her own environment to fit her need of love. It doesn’t show any self-adaptation to fit her own environment because she did not think that becoming a magical girl would incapacitate her in any way at the time of her making the wish. I would honestly like to see valid examples of Fe-Si in her actions and not from her values, because it is obvious that her values could come from either Fe or Fi.
Biography
Sayaka is a bit tomboyish and acts heroic. She is devoted to her friends, especially when she makes the contract right away and saves Madoka. She has a large girlish side in that she loves classical music, and is very interested in romance. Sayaka seems to have had an extremely black-and-white and idealistic vision of love, which seems to have contributed to her breakdown. After learning the truth about the Magical Girl contract, she felt that she could no longer approach him, and this wasn't helped by Kamijou's obliviousness to her feelings and Hitomi's more assertive behavior that ended up with Hitomi becoming Kamijou's girlfriend, unaware of Sayaka's problem.
