Apollo

(To Python) "Your appearance doesn't matter to me. What's beautiful is your existence, your personality. Confronting yourself, igniting your soul, fighting with such energy... it's so beautiful.";[17] (To Python) "Those who know themselves know they are not enough. Those who know themselves know their weakness. Those who know themselves are not afraid to change. Those who know themselves can be most proud of their beauty."[9] (To Zeus) "What a... What a pity. Their deaths must have been so beautiful... To miss such a spectacle... what a shame."[18] (To Ares) "They all... fought with burning souls, didn't they? In that case... why be sad? They were at... the peak of beauty!!";[19] (Addressing Leonid) "Surely you didn't mean anything so vulgar? Because if so... then it deserves divine punishment."[20] (To Leonidas) "Even though I so magnanimously told you all, 'Do not fight,' and granted you a decree of peace and prosperity? How spoiled you are. In any case, if you want to talk to me... you must first kneel."[21] (Addressing Leonidas) "I will live up to all expectations. For I am the supreme being... the sun god, Apollo."[22] (Addressing Leonid) "You must understand, mustn't you? I gave my whole soul to defeat you. The me you see before you, giving my all to the fight... nothing is... more beautiful."[23] (Addressing Leonid) "It seems that you too are one of those who know themselves and whose soul is on fire. In that case, there is only one thing left to do. Let us burn our souls together, as hard as we can... until one of us burns to ashes."[24] (To Leonidas) "Thanks to me fighting with you, and your burning soul... I will become even more beautiful."[25] (To Leonidas and Geyrölül) "Good... beauties. You two were... the most beautiful."[26]

Divine Physiology: As a god, Apollo possesses physical abilities far beyond those of a normal human. His body is impervious to lethal weapons, but he can be harmed by unarmed attacks if the opponent possesses superhuman strength and a divine weapon.

Photokinesis: As the god of the sun, Apollo can create and manipulate light. He can manipulate light and create thin, strong threads for combat, easily blocking attacks on the level of Volundr. Matter Manipulation: Through the threads of light he can create, Apollo can manipulate and weave them to create any weapon or object he desires. This opens up an endless number of possibilities, such as creating a shield, a lyre, boxing gloves, a bow, and so on.

Expectation-Driven Enhancement: Apollo can enhance his physical, mental, and supernatural abilities based on the expectations and criticism of others, whether allies or enemies. This was demonstrated when he activated his most powerful form while listening to comments from the crowd. Even Zeus himself cannot explain this power, as it is unrelated to logic or common sense. The stronger the crowd's emotions, the more Apollo will match them.

The Sun God himself seems to be able to react to the reflected arrows, though he does not have enough movement speed to dodge them.

Divine Durability: Apollo demonstrated incredible resilience, managing to survive Leonidas's Nemesis Phalanx, which inflicted massive damage on the arena and even struck Zeus with its destructive power. However, the sun god suffered a serious facial injury. Godly Endurance and Durability: Apollo possesses immense strength and can withstand extremely powerful and painful blows. When Leonidas managed to strike Apollo with the Phalanx of Nemesis, he was struck squarely in the face and hit the ground so hard that he bounced off and fell face-down. Although it took him a moment to recover, he quickly recovered and reacted with joy and satisfaction, proudly accepting the unsightly wound on his face. When his right arm was struck by his own light arrow, which rebounded back at him, he, although unable to use the bow in combat, still managed to summon enough energy to perform his final move and pierce Leonidas's shield with the same hand. Self-knowledge: Apollo was born an ordinary and mediocre god, but thanks to his desire to become better, he achieved all his titles, skills, and competencies through sheer hard work and effort. This self-knowledge helped him become one of the 12 gods of Olympus. He is the first nature god to acknowledge his weaknesses and strive to become the strongest. Master Boxer: Apollo has demonstrated incredible skill in boxing, as demonstrated by his ability to dodge Leonidas's swift attacks while still delivering swift counter-punches. Master Archer: Apollo was considered a highly skilled archer. He trained and practiced extensively throughout his life to become the god of archery. He also managed to slay several giants and destroy the fortifications of Argos during the Gigantomachy, and wounded Leonidas several times. Semi-immortality: As a god, Apollo cannot die of old age.

General Abilities: Narcissism aside, Apollo is a formidable God in combat thanks to his incredible reflexes and speed, making him virtually impossible to hit. Combined with his natural talent in boxing, Apollo can counter any attack without breaking stride or catching his breath. So much so that he could corner fighters like Leonidas, and even Leonidas' Volundr couldn't catch the God off guard enough to completely let his guard down. Godlike Strength: While Apollo doesn't match the strength of fighters like Thor or Hades, he displays incredible physical strength for his size, despite his fighting style relying on speed and skill. This allows him to move his arms with incredible ease and speed, despite wearing golden gauntlets. He can even wield a massive bow, much larger than himself. His strikes are quite powerful, as he was able to wound and knock back Leonidas, and when he fought Python, he defeated him with a single blow, despite the snake-like demon routing Ares's army with incredible ease. He also possesses considerable gravity, as he was able to restrain the King of Sparta with his threads, immobilizing him. At the climax of the ninth round, Apollo clashes with Leonidas's Lambda Phalanx with Argyrotoxos and pierces his shield, wounding Leonidas in the stomach. Godlike Speed ​​and Reflexes: Apollo has demonstrated not only the speed of a god or a human, but perhaps even speed superior to that of others. This was demonstrated when an enraged Ares, the god of war, attempted to strike the sun god for his insolence while he was naked. Apollo easily dodged and even hurled the god of war into the water. Apollo can quickly adapt to surprise attacks: he was able to evade many of Leonidas's surprise attacks, despite having never seen one before.

Apollo appears to be an extremely narcissistic person who cares greatly about beauty, both in himself and in others. When he heard the news of the other Greek gods' deaths at Ragnarök, his first reaction was not to mourn them, but rather to wish he could have been there to see them die, as they must have looked beautiful when they died.[7] Beyond his narcissism, Apollo looks down on anyone who doesn't meet his own standards of beauty. This is especially true of humans, as at the beginning of the ninth round: when Leonidas leaped forward before Heimdall could even finish saying "Fight!", Apollo criticized him for acting like a wild beast and called him subhuman.[8]

Apollo's narcissistic nature also gave him a flair for the dramatic: he always strikes majestic and expressive poses. This first manifested itself when he posed in a bath, uncaring whether he was naked or not.[3] This didn't change during the battle, when he openly mocked Leonidas with facial expressions, words, and posture.

Apollo is a firm believer that what makes a person beautiful is not how they look, but how well they know themselves. He believes that those who rest on the laurels of their good fortune and do nothing are ugly, while those who know their weaknesses and are not afraid to change are beautiful.[9]

After the ninth round, Apollo decided to leave a scar on his face as a sign of respect and recognition of the service of his fallen enemies. This once again demonstrated how little he cared about appearances.

Apollo is an attractive man with long light pink hair that reaches down to his waist and a good physique.

Like many gods of the Greek pantheon, he wears attributes associated with Greece, such as a laurel wreath, buff sandals, and a toga. However, his toga has elements more reminiscent of a kimono, such as a sash around his torso (obi) and floral patterns on the outer, open chest. He is adorned with jewelry: a necklace descending onto his chest, reminiscent of the sun and its rays, a chain that forms part of his belt, and an ornate chain on his right leg. Under his Divine Arms, he wears black gloves that cover only the thumb, index, and middle fingers, leaving the ring and little fingers, as well as the area around them, exposed.

I will surely live up to everyone's expectations. For I am the supreme being... the sun god, Apollo. Apollo is the representative of the Gods in the ninth round of Ragnarok, fighting against Leonidas.

Apollo is a prominent deity in the Greek pantheon. He is known as the "Sun God" (太陽神, Taiyō-shin)[3] and is one of the twelve gods of Olympus. He is also known by the name Phoebus (ポイボス, Poibosu)[4] and is considered the God of Boxing (ボクシングの神, Bokusing no Kami)[5].

Through his own efforts, Apollo earned himself a number of honorary titles, such as the "God of Philosophy" (哲学の神, Tetsugaku no Kami), the "God of Poetry" (詩歌の神, Shiika no Kami), the "God of Medicine" (医学の神, Igaku no Kami), the "God of Archery" (弓の神, Yumi no Kami), the "God of Music" (音楽の神, Ongaku no Kami) and the "God of Prophecy" (予言の神, Yogen no Kami)[6], praised as the most talented God.
