Isao Shinomiya: zodiac sign and birth chart

Isao Shinomiya is a Capricorn, born on January 8. The manga's profile never gives a year, so his Moon and the rest of his chart come from NEBO's take. Capricorn fits the Director General of the Defense Force, sterner than granite, who holds the line himself and asks the same of his daughter.

NEBO's take

Canon says Capricorn. Our model says Aries.

We ran Isao 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 Aries first: Sun, Moon and Rising, with Mars in Capricorn.

NEBO's take

Aries SunRead from his personality
  • Sun CanonCapricornNEBO's takeAries

    Canon's Capricorn is the Director General, sterner than granite. Aries is the commander who still goes first into battle.

  • Moon CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeAries

    Canon gives no year, so the Moon is our take. Aries fits a man who feels everything fast and shows almost none of it.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeAries

    No birth time in canon. First impression, Aries style: a commanding presence who steps forward before the room has finished speaking.

  • Mercury CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeNo clear pick

  • Venus CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeTaurus

    Taurus Venus loves slowly and for good. He demands the impossible from his daughter because of what he lost.

  • Mars CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeCapricorn

    Capricorn Mars in both: he goes into battle in heavy combat armor and hits with a force few can stand up to.

Where we agree: Mars is in Capricorn in both. Duty in armor, and no retreat.

How he shows up

Why he's like this

Capricorn is the sign of duty, discipline and the weight of leadership. Isao hits it in armor and in the way he parents.

Questions

Isao's zodiac sign: what people ask

What zodiac sign is Isao Shinomiya?

Capricorn. The official manga profile gives Isao's birthday as January 8, and Capricorn runs from December 22 to January 19.

When is Isao's birthday?

January 8. Canon never gives his birth year, so his full birth chart can't be calculated.

Is Isao a Capricorn?

Yes, by his canon birthday. The stern, dutiful Director General fits. Our personality model adds a lot of Aries on top, the commander who goes first.

What is Isao's Moon sign?

Unknown in canon, because his birth year is never given. NEBO's take, built from his personality, puts his Moon in Aries.

What element is Isao?

Earth. Capricorn is an earth sign, and 2 of his 4 placements are earth too.
