Apollo (アポロン) is the former head of the Apollo Familia.
Appearance[]
Apollo is a tall handsome man with blonde hair that looked as if sunlight had been condensed together with bright and wavy locks gliding over one another and a smile described as equally brilliant. In the anime, his hair is colored scarlet red. He also wears a green laurel wreath on his head.
Personality[]
Apollo is extremely persistent once he sets his sights on a person, constantly chasing them until he can get them. On several occasions he attempted to flirt with Hestia while they were in Heaven, causing her to develop a noticeable aversion towards him. Likewise, several of his familia members were forcibly recruited; he sometimes went from country to country until they finally joined his familia.
Apollo is shown to be bisexual; regardless of whether they are male or female he recruits anyone who catches his interest, having many youthful male and female members with cute features in his familia. He particularly likes young men, whom he tends to favor. On top of that he is a huge pervert, as he shook with anticipation and experienced heat surging through his chest as he fantasized about Bell before the War Game.
In spite of the fact that his quest to gather beautiful members into his familia was motivated by his degenerate nature, Apollo genuinely loved and cared deeply for them. After they joined his familia, he treated his dependents in a good manner and even bought high-quality and expensive equipment for them, in addition to being more gentle with those he favored. Throughout his life Apollo also lost multiple lovers. He shed tears and mourned the loss of each one profusely, spending several days in grief and carrying with him whatever accessory they used to wear if they had any.
Trivia[]
