NEBO's take
Canon and our model agree: Sagittarius.
We ran Matsuda through the same model that matches people to characters in the app, and looked at which chart gets him most often. It agrees on Sagittarius for the Sun and has no strong pick for the rest, so the other placements stay canon.

CanonSagittariusNEBO's takeNo clear pick
Sagittarius in both charts: loud, honest and always in the middle of the room.
- Moon

Gemini Moon talks through every feeling. Our model has no strong pick for the Moon, so canon stands.
- Rising
CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeNo clear pick
No birth time in canon, and no strong pick from the model. First impression: the youngest one, grinning, already speaking up.
- Mercury
CanonSagittariusNEBO's takeNo clear pick
Sagittarius Mercury says exactly what's on his mind, usually before he's thought about it.
- Venus
CanonScorpioNEBO's takeNo clear pick
Scorpio loves deeply and loyally, and doesn't let go: he believes in Light longer than anyone.
- Mars
CanonCapricornNEBO's takeNo clear pick
Capricorn is slow to act and then does it for good. Our model has no strong pick for Mars.
Where we agree: Sun in Sagittarius. The model has no strong read on his other placements, so canon's chart stands.
