Overview
Voiced by: Aya Hirano
Konata has a cheerful and easy-going personality, as well as being great at sports, but doesn't want to do them because they tire her preferring to spend her time playing games or indulging herself in her otaku stuff. She knows martial arts (aikido-style, according to her), and although her father forced her to take self-defense classes, she stopped training a long time ago. Seems to have been quite strong.
However, in the early years of the series, she was not very talkative and had little expression.
She is best friends with Kagami Hiiragi, Tsukasa Hiiragi and Miyuki Takara since high school, being classmates with the latter two and often welcoming Kagami during lunch breaks.
She is characterized by her small body, long blue hair that reaches her waist, a mole under .
The emoticon is "(≡ω≡.)" . The eyes appear in the mathematical symbol 'congruent'.
The first person she got to know was Tsukasa, who, mistakenly, beat up a foreigner (although it could have been a joke) when the foreigner asked her for directions and she was in trouble. She became friends with Kagami via Tsukasa and also with Miyuki around the time of the cultural festival.
She shares a university with Misao Kusakabe, a student in the same class as Kagami durign high school.
During her high school years, she started working part-time at a cosplay café in Akihabara, and due to this, she has many opportunities (along with Kagami) to cosplay.
She also occasionally works as a shrine maiden part-time, but I would like to think it is at a shrine and not at a cosplay café.
She used to live with her father, Soujiro Izumi, but since her third year of high school she has been living with her cousin Yutaka Kobayakawa, and in the original story, Patricia Martin (Patty) has joined her since her first year of university.
Her mother, Kanata Izumi, passed away in her early years of life. This doesn't affect Konata due to not having many memories with her due to being very young, although sometimes she wonders what was her like and why she choose to marry her dad. Her older cousin (Sojiro's sister Yuki's daughter. Yui Narumi (Yutaka's sister) often comes over to play with them and gets involved with them. When Yutaka comes to live at Soujiro's home, she took the role of an older cousin, helping Yutaka when she becomes sick.
Her hobbies are typically otaku-related (and she has a preference for boys), influenced by Soujiro, and often plays R-18 games even when she was under the legal age of 18. She is often mistaken for a fujoshi (rotten girl), but does not seem to particularly like Yaoi. She likes yuri, but tells Patty that she doesn't have same-sex interests in real life. She doesn't seem to like reading literature very much, and when Kagami recommended light novels to her, she was unusually pushed away, not helping that Kagami stared at her when she forced her to read one.
She has no knowledge of otaku hobbies, and Kagami, under the influence of her father, thought that she only watched anime and special effects for boys, but she was surprised to learn that she had also taken courses in works for girls (probably Precure and Aikatsu).
In the June 2007 issue of Newtype, her illustration postcard was selected for the reader's page (it really did appear in the magazine), and she proudly showed it to Kagami in episode 8 of the anime.
On the other hand, she is a so-called "artist" and has showcased interest in becoming an animator, but her drawing ability is on the level of a kindergartener. This can be seen in the anime and the anime DVD covers (normal edition) of Lucky Star, which has pictures drawn by her (the colour of the stones is much better than the pictures she drew in episode 7 of the main story, and you can barely tell who is who even without an explanation. (Especially Shiraishi and the others look quite similar).
Because she and Kanata were bereaved before she can remember, she is often spoilt by Kagami and Miyuki, Miyuki accepts her warmly and Kagami is strict about Konata's sloppiness, but does not reject her. She gets on well with Tsukasa, who has a laid-back personality, but they both think they are better than each other.
