** ''Anime/LoveLiveSchoolIdolProject'': Kotori Minami is selfless, hard-working, emotional, cheerful, optimistic, loyal and a NiceGirl to a fault. She's friendly and outgoing, but well-put together, quieter and more levelheaded compared to her rather impulsive best friend Honoka. She is notably indecisive and ignores her own well-being more often than not, constantly giving priority to the feelings of others, making her a clear Fe dom.

* Dr. Leonard "Bones" [=McCoy=] from ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'' is a grumpy but ultimately kindly doctor who always puts the human element first in any moral consideration over objective logic (Fe), which, coupled with his strong sense of traditional values and past experiences (Si), gives the crew of the Enterprise a more human and empathetic perspective to any given situation to contrast the more traditionally rational Spock.

* Mai Sakurajima from ''Literature/RascalDoesNotDreamOfBunnyGirlSenpai'' is fairly calm and reserved, very altruistic, loyal, hard-working and well-organized. She's overall observant and grounded in reality, relying on her past experience (Si dom); though she often hides her personal unpleasant feelings about her past, she's not closed-off about her more positive ones and her affection for others, and her empathy, supportiveness, protectiveness, social politeness and considerate nature are seen in interactions with most other characters (Fe aux). She uses her inner logic to see how things work overall, being capable of being rational and practical (Ti tert), and while generally focused on the present and on concrete facts, she still ends up considering other possibilities, looking at the more positive side of things (Ne aux), making her an example who's not unable to think outside the box.

Guardians are practical and [[AffluentAscetic frugal]] types. They share certain core values, among them the belief in a [[{{Workaholic}} strong work ethic]], the need for people and institutions to be responsible, the importance of following the [[TheFettered rules and of serving one's community]]. Guardians value experience, and they seek a tangible return on their investments. Believing in common sense, they are not attracted to idle speculation. They are the glue of civilization, maintaining and nurturing institutions that have been established by the dint of hard work. They tend to be conventional and cooperative in their work, wanting to make sure [[HonorBeforeReason everybody gets what they deserve, no more and no less]]. They follow the rules and conventions of their cohort or group and expect others to as well.
