Boruto Uzumaki stars in Boruto, the direct sequel to hit series Naruto. It explores life in Konoha after Naruto becomes the Hokage. With creator Masashi Kishimoto himself supervising (and eventually, spearheading) the series itself, fans know Boruto and his dad won't have it easy.

Thankfully, Boruto has new friends, allies, and mentors to count on. Moreover, their unique powersets and abilities prove enough to appeal to fans as well. For many fans of Boruto, having a favorite new shinobi meant determining who they relate to the most — but which are they really most like? Astrology is one way to figure it out. Though they may not match the characters' actual signs, these are the characters that represent each Zodiac sign the best.

12 Aries: Boruto Uzumaki

Boruto Uzumaki - Boruto As Zodiac Signs

Boruto Uzumaki is nothing like his father — or so he says. In fact, Boruto shows Naruto's mischievousness and his mentor Sasuke Uchiha's desire for power. Thankfully, with Boruto's natural arrogance comes prodigious talent. Boruto remains fiercely loyal to his friends and family, coming to their aid in impossible circumstances.

Known for being blunt and hardheaded, both Boruto and an Aries won't stop until they persevere past a challenge. Like an Aries, Boruto has a natural thirst for new experiences, as well as the determination and ambition to drive his growth.

11 Taurus: Inojin Yamanaka

Inojin Yamanaka - Boruto As Zodiac Signs

Inojin Yamanaka has the same sense of motivation as his mother Ino, and the same bluntness of his father Sai. As a result, Inojin can sometimes appear indifferent even though he's simply focused on his goals. A gifted artist, Inojin always wants the simplest yet most stylish ways to pursue his craft.

Like Inojin, Tauruses want to keep their feet on the ground and be as stable as possible. Also similar to Inojin, a Taurus can't be stopped once they pursue their goals. In line with this sign's penchant for material things, Inojin has a keen eye for good art.

10 Gemini: Sumire Kakei

Sumire Kakei in Boruto

While quiet and meek, Sumire shows genuine concern for her classmates. While still allied to her father, Sumire is driven to the point of no remorse. When she finally worked for the Scientific Ninja Weapons Team, Sumire showcased her hidden confidence in her methodical and analytical nature.

Gemini are charismatic and know how to talk to different kinds of people. They exhibit knowledge about multiple topics, precisely because they know how to listen to others. Like a Gemini, Sumire isn't necessarily two-faced, but rather wise in ensuring she shows the best possible part of herself at any given moment.

9 Cancer: Shinki

Shinki - Boruto As Zodiac Signs

Gaara's adopted son Shinki was shy at first, but grew to become one of the best shinobi of his generation. Shinki grew to have a strong sense of pride for his heritage, and sometimes arrogance in his abilities. He took after Gaara's early sense of maturity, and prefers exerting just the right amount of effort to solve any situation.

Like a Cancer, Shinki has layers of personality, with his hard shell oftentimes a sponge for the emotions of others. Cancers and Shinki both have a unique way of interpreting the plights of people around them. It's this unique empathy that makes Shinki a reliable leader.

8 Leo: Iwabee Yuino

Iwabee Yuino - Boruto As Zodiac Signs

Iwabee Yuino may have potential at the Academy, but bad grades kept dragging him back. He's older than his peers, becoming rather blunt and single-minded. However, he acknowledges that hardships make a great ninja. Iwabee has a high regard for himself. He shows aggressiveness towards others, and in combat he utilizes this and his tactical prowess to turn the tide against enemies.

Naturally prideful, a Leo tends to have a loud personality that stands out among the rest. While a bit vain, they always show an aura of warmth that makes others eager to be around them. Similarly, Iwabee might appear as unapproachable at times. However, his big personality makes him a standout member of his generation.

7 Virgo: Sarada Uchiha

Sarada Uchiha - Boruto As Zodiac Signs

Sarada Uchiha has become a recognizable new face in Boruto. She takes after her mother Sakura's empathy and wisdom, and her father Sasuke's affinity for prowess. Sarada is a young genius among her peers. Sarada admires Hokage Naruto's version of the Will of Fire. In turn, she wants to become a Hokage like him.

Pragmatic to a fault, a Virgo loves understanding how things click, much like the studious Sarada and her prowess in understanding situations. Her desire to become Hokage to help the village is similar to that of a Virgo. This sign finds self worth in contributing to causes larger than themselves.

6 Libra: Shikadai Nara

Shikadai Nara - Boruto As Zodiac Signs

Shikadai Nara is a spitting image of his father, Shikamaru. He inherited Shikamaru's relaxed and unenthusiastic nature. However, with these traits come intellect and tactical acumen. As lazy person, Shikadai uses much of his strategems in games. However, Shikadai is always the leader with the plan.

Like a Libra, Shikadai is irony personified, being a lazy genius of his generation. True enough, Libras are hidden geniuses — have them learn something, and they'd be pros in no time at all. Similarly, Shikadai might not be the go-to guy to lead a group, but he's the most dependable to formulate a plan for success.

5 Scorpio: Mitsuki

Mitsuki - Boruto As Zodiac Signs

Mitsuki is one of Orochimaru's partial clones. However, he sought to observe Boruto in the hopes of finding his own path. His peers know him as cheerful but blunt, indifferent but sharp in wit. His "go with the flow" nature only adds to his mystery. Mitsuki has a natural desire to forge bonds with people, often to know more about the nature of humanity.

RELATED: Naruto: Every Team Naruto Has Been Part Of

Like a Scorpio, Mitsuki prefers to keep to himself and let the world unravel itself to him. Scorpios prefer to remain a mystery to others, reluctant to show vulnerability. Similarly, Mitsuki remains insecure of his nature, despite the many gifts it brought to him.

4 Sagittarius: Himawari Uzumaki

Himawari - Boruto As Zodiac Signs

Himawari displays remarkable maturity for her young age, like her mother Hinata. Despite this, Himawari displays remarkable persistence, never giving up on her goals. Perhaps most importantly, Himawari refuses to let others decide her fate, having a preference to experience numerous careers first before pursuing a life as a shinobi.

This sign has no qualms when it comes to the idea of change. They love investigating the unknown, exploring various jobs, beliefs, and philosophies. Like the Sagittarius, Himawari wants to experience the world to the fullest before settling down.

3 Capricorn: Kawaki

Kawaki - Boruto As Zodiac Signs

Newcomer Kawaki poised himself as Boruto's eventual rival after Konoha's destruction. Kawaki possesses the Kama, a copy of Isshiki Otsutsuki's DNA. Kawaki suffered a horrible childhood at the hands of Isshiki and the rest of Kara. He developed an aggressive personality and hatred for everything about the Otsutsuki and the Kama.

Kawaki's headstrong approach to his hatred is classic Capricorn style. Capricorns remain motivated by duty, stopping at nothing to fulfill it. They don't let emotions get in the way, and are devoted to their moral compass. Like a Capricorn, Kawaki has a complicated sense of responsibility as a Kama bearer. He's desperate to ensure the horrors of Kama happen to no one else, even if it means having to kill.

2 Aquarius: Metal Lee

Metal Lee - Boruto As Zodiac Signs

Metal Lee has an immense dedication to the art of taijutsu. Like his father, Metal is an extremely honorable and respectful individual. He does suffer from stage fright, but remarkably can overcome his anxiety to maximize his performance.

Instead of becoming a traditional shinobi, Metal follows in his father's footsteps to become a taijutsu master. Similarly, an Aquarius might choose to take the unfamiliar road to set themselves apart. This isn't out of a desire to be unique in itself, but because an Aquarius believes they're more than what the world makes them out to be.

1 Pisces: Chocho Akimichi

Chocho Akimichi - Boruto As Zodiac Signs

Chocho doesn't believe in the idea of pressure, wanting things to do at her own pace. However, "her own pace" gave her an eccentric and romantic nature.

Like Chocho, Pisces often become excessively romantic and change the way their emotions work depending on the people around them. As with Chocho's romantic nature, Pisces tend to be emotionally charged, imaginative, and dreamy. They have a good grasp of who they are, know their personality is often fluid.
