Cancers can effortlessly pick up the energies in a room and are highly sensitive to their environments, as well as extremely self-protective, while cold at first they will eventually open up.
Ruri spends a good portion of the anime as being the straight woman of the crew, she prefers to avoid madness and would rather just quietly get on with her job but as she develops she opens up more and eventually becomes the captain to a new team.
Ruri's journey from Science Officer to Captain is definitely the path of a Cancer.
Nice Design Doesn't Equal Success For Itsuki
Quite often a nicely designed character comes along who is instantly remembered for better or for worse, ask the entire extended Pokemon cast. But for Itsuki that's not the case.
The Aestivalis pilot of Martian Successor Nadesico Itsuki Kazama was doomed from the start, in her only appearance she takes lead character Akito's place after he walks out on the crew for the umpteenth time; Itsuki is pretty, dependable and has a design that fits in nicely with the series but when she goes into battle she is killed instantly when her enemy teleports, crushing her as a result as her body couldn't stand the extreme forces involved in teleporting.
The definition of cannon fodder, but remarkably while researching her character, she does have her own figure, so she did stand out but when competing against a large cast of desirable women on the Nadesico crew, there's just no room for the straight A woman soldier.
