12 Anime Heroes Who Don't Fit Their Zodiac Sign At All (2024)

Astrological signs are always a fun way for fans to relate to their favorite characters. If fans share one of the twelve zodiac signs with their beloved anime heroes, they will feel more connected to them. Most of the time, anime characters match their zodiac signs pretty well, and it's almost uncanny how much they embody the personality quirks associated with them.

However, there are plenty of beloved anime heroes who don't fit their zodiac sign at all. They may have one or two similar qualities associated with their given zodiac sign, but otherwise, they'd be better suited for another sign entirely.

12 Aries: Jean Kirstein

Attack On Titan

12 Anime Heroes Who Don't Fit Their Zodiac Sign At All (1)

Attack On Titan's Jean Kirstein, born on April 7th, is an Aries. Typically characterized by a hotheaded disposition and brazen impulsivity, Aries is one of the most passionate zodiac signs. Though Jean definitely shares qualities with his sign, he may be better suited for a Taurus.

Though they don't seem similar at first, Aries and Tauruses are much more alike than different. They're both stubborn and hate sitting around doing nothing. However, unlike the fiery Aries, Tauruses aren't nearly as impulsive. Unlike Eren, a true-blooded Aries, Jean is much more suited for the slightly more level-headed Taurus.

11 Taurus: Tohru Honda

Fruits Basket

Fruits Basket's Tohru Honda, born on May 6th, is a Taurus. Tauruses are down-to-earth and generally have a good work ethic. Though Tohru embodies the sign in some ways, she may be better suited for the sign of Cancer instead of Taurus. Unlike Taurus, Cancer is a fixed sign, and the people who fall under it tend to be natural leaders.

Like Tohru, Cancers are highly emotional, perceptive, and stubborn in their pursuit of getting closer to others. Though Tohru personifies Taurean attributes like an intense work ethic and humility, it's clear that the highly empathetic Cancer is much better suited for her.

10 Gemini: Koshi Sugawara

Haikyuu!

Haikyuu!'s Koshi Sugawara, born on June 13th, is a Gemini. Geminis are known for their dualistic nature and love for gossip. They're social butterflies who don't stay committed to any specific hobby or activity for too long. Like a typical Gemini, Sugawara is friendly and always stays optimistic.

However, Virgo fits him a little better. While Geminis are harder to pin down, Virgos have intense work ethics that make it hard for them to walk away from something once they've started. They're practical and always strive to improve their skills, often encouraging others in the process.

9 Cancer: Denki Kaminari

My Hero Academia

12 Anime Heroes Who Don't Fit Their Zodiac Sign At All (4)

My Hero Academia's Denki Kaminari, born on June 29th, is a Cancer. Cancers are generally introverts who struggle with getting close to others, often keeping everybody at an arm's distance until they're sure they can trust them. Highly empathetic and great at reading a room, Cancers are perceptive and in tune with everyone's emotions.

Kaminari definitely isn't a Cancer. Based on his personality, this electrifying hero is much more suited for the air sign Gemini. Like a Gemini, Kaminari is outgoing, a little bit flighty and enjoys having a good time. He can be a little tactless and absolutely detests studying, but still wants to become a great hero.

8 Leo: Saiki Kusuo

The Disastrous Life Of Saiki K.

Leos are known for stealing the spotlight and seeking out every opportunity to do so. Saiki, however, absolutely hates being the center of attention. Throughout The Disastrous Life Of Saiki K., the titular protagonist spends lots of time trying to stay out of the limelight and avoid his peers' attention.

Born on August 16th, the stars say that Saiki is a Leo. However, he doesn't fit the sign's description at all. He's much better suited for Leo's opposite sign, the Aquarius. Saiki does things his own way and doesn't want to be bothered by anybody else. He doesn't care about receiving widespread praise or admiration simply because he doesn't want it.

7 Virgo: Emma

The Promised Neverland

12 Anime Heroes Who Don't Fit Their Zodiac Sign At All (6)

The Promised Neverland's Emma, born on August 22nd, is a Virgo. Like a typical Virgo, Emma is a hard worker. However, that's the only thing she has in common with her given astrological sign. Emma's personality is one of a natural leader. She's fiery, independent, and can rally a crowd unlike any other kid her age.

Emma is much more suited for Aries. Like an Aries, Emma's never afraid of taking the first steps toward her goals. Emma led an entire group of kids out of an orphanage, so it's clear that she has the leadership qualities associated with the fiery cardinal sign.

6 Libra: Joseph Joestar

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

12 Anime Heroes Who Don't Fit Their Zodiac Sign At All (7)

Joseph Joestar, born September 27th, is a Libra. Throughout Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Joseph has proven himself the total opposite of the diplomatic air sign. Libras are generally easy-going, friendly, and enjoy creating harmony in their environment. On the other hand, Joseph is a chaotic man who seeks every opportunity to ditch his responsibilities.

Joseph is much more suited for the fiery Sagittarius. Like a typical Sagittarius, Joseph hates committing to any one thing or person and can't be tied down. Unlike Libras, Joseph doesn't have any real work ethic and even admits that he hates the concept of working hard.

5 Scorpio: Tengen Uzui

Demon Slayer

12 Anime Heroes Who Don't Fit Their Zodiac Sign At All (8)

Demon Slayer's Tengen Uzui, born on October 31st, is a Scorpio. While Scorpios are intense and prefer lurking in the shadows, Uzui prefers making a giant scene out of everything and strives to be the flashiest person on the planet. As the Sound Hashira, Tengen is just as eccentric as all of his peers.

It's pretty clear that Tengen is much more suited for Leo than Scorpio. Both fixed signs, Scorpios and Leos are both stubborn in their goals and loyal to the people they care about. However, Leos are generally more extroverted than Scorpios, and people are naturally drawn toward them.

4 Sagittarius: Ken Kaneki

Tokyo Ghoul

12 Anime Heroes Who Don't Fit Their Zodiac Sign At All (9)

Tokyo Ghoul's Ken Kaneki, born on December 20th, is a Sagittarius. Sagittarians are generally considered outgoing and spontaneous. Perpetually optimistic and naturally talented at socializing, Sagittarians are easy to get along with. Though Kaneki shares a few qualities with his astrological sign, he's much more suited for Pisces.

Kaneki represents the darker side of Pisces. A mutable sign like Sagittarius, Pisceans are in touch with their emotions and tend to act recklessly when they're mentally struggling. Kaneki admits that his life is a tragedy at the beginning of the series, but like a typical Pisces, he makes it his entire identity and kind of wallows in self-pity for a while.

3 Capricorn: Gaara

Naruto

12 Anime Heroes Who Don't Fit Their Zodiac Sign At All (10)

Born on January 19th, Gaara from Naruto is a Capricorn. Capricorns are defined by a domineering personality, intense work ethic, and closing themselves off from other people. Gaara embodies all these things, but his dark personality is much more suited for Scorpio. At the beginning of the series, Gaara represented the worst of Scorpios: vengeful, depressed, and unable to trust anybody.

However, Scorpio is a sign of transformation and change through turmoil, which is something that Gaara underwent. After realizing that Naruto was a lot like him during their fight, Gaara became a much better person and now embodies Scorpio's more positive traits, like loyalty and perseverance.

2 Aquarius: Maki Zenin

Jujutsu Kaisen

12 Anime Heroes Who Don't Fit Their Zodiac Sign At All (11)

Born on January 20th, Maki Zenin from Jujutsu Kaisen is an Aquarius. She embodies a few of the sign's traits, like her fierce independence and unique way of doing things. However, Maki's personality is much more suited for Scorpio.

Scorpios are associated with revenge, but they aren't reckless in their pursuit. Maki represents the positive side of the Scorpio's vengefulness since she always worked hard to become a great jujutsu sorcerer and prove her clan wrong. Maki's headstrong personality made her a natural leader for her fellow second years and jujutsu high's first years.

1 Pisces: Yuri Plisetsky

Yuri!!! On Ice

12 Anime Heroes Who Don't Fit Their Zodiac Sign At All (12)

Yuri!!! On Ice's Yuri Plisetsky, born March 1st, is a Pisces. However, he's nothing like his astrological sign. He's not even born on the cusp of Aries, but he embodies the sign's rage perfectly. Unlike the stereotypically passive Pisces, Yuri is a very passionate skater who fiercely fights for what he wants.

Always yelling obscenities and cussing someone out, Yuri's explosive personality earned him the nickname "Russian Punk." However, Yuri's aggressive personality hides his deep inferiority complex. He trains harder than most people because he doesn't want to fall behind, especially since he wants to impress Victor.
