maybe i'll come back to this and make a proper argument but i'm surprised no one considered sx6 for him. i say he has a strong 8 fix, but i don't think he has an 8 core. ep 35, he admits that he is a sadist because well... he's insecure. it's a defense mechanism to protect himself and the people he cares about (as seen in the way he treats his sister, mitsuba, and kondo). admittedly, i also do think the show (and sorachi) kinda forgot this bit, and him being a sadist just became his whole schtick. maybe i wasn't supposed to take ep 35 seriously, but that part alone has already set a strong point in his character. i believe he is voted as an 8 core because the comedic side of gintama fuels his 8 a lot, but in serious arcs, he actually /isn't/ an 8 core. i think this comment perfectly describes his behavior in the serious arcs: https://www.reddit.com/r/Enneagram/comments/7r6hfd/comment/dsuxe6d/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 but idk. seems like the comments have been ridden with one-sided arguments and troll votes, i just wanted to put this out there since it has been on my mind for a while. pls be civil if you wish to reply to me, thanks!
