Shintaro Midorima: zodiac sign and birth chart

Shintaro Midorima is a Cancer, born on July 7. Canon never gives a birth year, so his Venus and the rest of his chart are NEBO's take. Cancer fits the sharpshooter who checks his horoscope every morning, carries the lucky item of the day and says he doesn't care about anyone.

NEBO's take

Canon says Cancer. Our model says Virgo.

We ran Midorima 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 Virgo: Sun and Venus, with no strong pick for his Moon, Rising or Mars.

NEBO's take

Virgo SunRead from his personality
  • Sun CanonCancerNEBO's takeVirgo

    Canon's Cancer hides how much he cares behind a scowl. Virgo is the perfectionist: taped fingers, a routine and a plan for every shot.

  • Moon CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeNo clear pick

    Canon gives no year and the model has no strong pick, so the Moon stays open. What we can say: the daily horoscope is how he stays in control of a sport full of luck.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeNo clear pick

    No birth time in canon and no strong pick. First impression: glasses, a stern face and some lucky item nobody else would carry.

  • Mercury CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeVirgo

    Virgo Mercury is exact and a little pedantic. His rule: do everything humanly possible, then leave the rest to fate.

  • Venus CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeVirgo

    Virgo Venus shows love by looking after details. He grumbles that he doesn't care, then turns up with the lucky item because your sign ranks last today.

  • Mars CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeNo clear pick

    No strong pick, and canon gives no year. On the court his drive is the full-court shot: whatever the distance, he shoots.

Where we agree: both signs are careful and a little guarded. Cancer protects the people it will not admit it cares about, Virgo checks every detail so nothing goes wrong.

How he shows up

Why he's like this

Cancer is the sign of the guarded shell, loyalty and the soft heart underneath. Midorima hits it in scenes fans know by heart, and our Virgo adds the routine.

  • CoreCancer Sun

    Lets the horoscope decide

    Every morning he listens to the Oha-Asa horoscope and carries the lucky item for his sign, however weird it is.

    Cares and denies it

    Next to Takao the stickler slowly learns to trust his team. The rickshaw Takao pulls behind his bike is the gag fans remember: the stern shooter rides along and keeps his scowl.

    Takes care of the details

    The fingers of his left hand are always taped. He does not leave the hand he shoots with to luck, whatever the horoscope says.

Cancer. The official character profiles give Midorima's birthday as July 7, and Cancer runs from June 21 to July 22.
