emma's Heart-Throb Points
・The gap between his calm solo radio talk and how he gets teased by everyone when he's a guest on events or radio shows is irresistibly charming!!
・He plays the character Razor in the new-generation open-world RPG 'Genshin Impact,' and my favorite part is when he shouts 'Grawr!!' while unleashing his skills! The 'Grawr!!' in Uchiyama-san's voice is just perfect!!
Koki Uchiyama's Natal Chart
*The birth time is assumed to be 12:00.
Looking at the four elements (Fire, Water, Earth, Air), Uchiyama-san has five Earth, followed by two each of Fire & Water, and one Air, making his Earth element strong.
Also, his Sun sign is the Fire sign Leo, and his Moon sign is the Air sign Gemini.
Therefore, he gives the impression of being calm yet curious and original.
His hobbies are also wide-ranging, including watching movies, listening to music, reading, and watching soccer, and the fact that he properly checks the latest news comes from his Gemini power.
This Gemini Moon is in a soft position (soft aspect: sextile) with his Leo Sun, so I think it creates a mild atmosphere without becoming too powerful in a bad way.
Also, like Mr. Nakajima from last time, it is characteristic that he has completed the Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn).
Reference: If you are interested in the previous article, please take a look here too.
Mars in Taurus, Mercury in Virgo, and Saturn in Capricorn are at 120 degrees, forming a position where an equilateral triangle is created. (Composite aspect: Grand Trine)
Moreover, it's not just that they form an equilateral triangle; the key lies in the stars within these three signs.
While Mars in Taurus struggles to exert its natural power, Virgo and Capricorn contain their respective ruling planets (Virgo's ruler: Mercury / Capricorn's ruler: Saturn), which fuels the power of the earth element here.
Therefore, it is excellent for manifesting inspiration derived from clarity.
Furthermore, there is also Jupiter in Cancer, which is a very comfortable placement for Jupiter as well.
Since it is good at reading emotions and teamwork, acting, where everyone works together to build a production, is well-suited for him.
Mr. Uchiyama is a voice actor who started as a child actor, and I feel that even back then, he must have been clever, sharp, and skillful at playing various roles.
He also hosts a radio program on Nippon Cultural Broadcasting called 'Koki Uchiyama's 1-Kool!', and what I think when listening to the radio is that he is knowledgeable, and his comments to listeners in each segment of the program are serious and sincere.
And it's profound and educational!!
I think the listeners' messages are also intelligent and wonderful.
He seems very calm when speaking alone, but when talking with multiple people, you can see an interesting side of him, and the way he gets teased is a gap-moe that I find charming.
Perhaps he has an aura that makes everyone want to tease him; this seems related to the charisma of Leo.
As for roles, while he is naturally suited for calm characters, I think he would surprisingly also fit aggressive, 'ora-ora' type characters.
In the anime 'Horimiya', he played a character named Miyamura who is usually a healing type, but due to the story, there were scenes where he would occasionally say aggressive lines, which personally hit the spot for me lol.
His high level of knowledge, his sincere and serious approach to everything, and the gap between that and when he talks with multiple people at events are what I think make him interesting and wonderful.
Things I'd like to see him do
・I definitely want him to do more aggressive roles!! I want to see more!!
・I want him to do narration for nature documentaries!! It would be so healing! Actually, I want to be healed by Mr. Uchiyama's voice!!
In closing
I think the direction of healing differs from person to person, but I hope this column serves as an opportunity for you to meet your 'ear-lover' lol.
Look forward to the next one!
