Master Roshi: zodiac sign and birth chart

Master Roshi has no canon birthday. Dragon Ball never gives him one, so the chart is NEBO's take, read from his personality. Read that way, he's a Virgo with a Taurus Moon and Gemini rising: a craftsman who spent decades perfecting one move, on a beach, in sunglasses. The old hermit with a turtle shell and a trick up his sleeve is Virgo in motion.

NEBO's take

No birthday in canon. His personality says Virgo.

We ran Roshi through the same model that matches people to characters in the app, and looked at which chart gets him most often. It reads him as earth first: patient, practical and a lot sharper than the beach-chair act suggests.

NEBO's take

Virgo SunRead from his personality
  • Sun CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeVirgo

    Virgo is craft and routine. Roshi spent fifty years on one technique, and the whole series is built on it.

  • Moon CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeTaurus

    Taurus Moon wants comfort and a home. Kame House, a little island and the sea are all he needs.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeGemini

    No birth time in canon. First impression: a harmless old man in shades. Then the Tournament, where he enters as Jackie Chun.

  • Mercury CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeVirgo

    Virgo Mercury is precise. He invents the Kamehameha, and half the universe copies it.

  • Venus CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeScorpio

    Scorpio Venus keeps its loyalty private. He trusts Goku and Krillin with his best move and lets them run with it.

  • Mars CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeVirgo

    Virgo Mars is efficient force. One Kamehameha puts out the fire on Fire Mountain, and no more energy than needed.

What canon does give: an old hermit who looks lazy and turns out to be the most careful teacher in the series. A Virgo answer is to hide the craft behind a joke.

How he shows up

Why he's like this

Virgo is the sign of craft, patience and doing the small thing right. Roshi hits it in scenes fans know by heart.

    Teaches with chores

    Goku and Krillin deliver milk, plow fields and carry heavy turtle shells for him. Fighting skill comes second, discipline first.

    Fifty years on one move

    He spent decades perfecting the Kamehameha. Now nearly every fighter in the series uses it, and it still works best in his hands.

    Just enough force

    A single Kamehameha puts out the fire on Fire Mountain, and the day is saved with energy to spare.

    Another face for the tournament

    He enters the Tenkaichi Budokai as Jackie Chun, a stranger with a new look, to take on his own students in the ring.

    Home is the island

    When Raditz shows up, Goku and his friends are at Kame House. Roshi's little island is the gang's base and the place they all come back to.
