Next rally, Tohno is hitting from the back and Akaya cheers him on, but Tohno just electrocutes him again, intending to take on their opponents by himself. Tohno is getting pressured and eventually one of the brothers lands his own special move, seemingly shattering Tohno's knee.

The brothers are slaughtering Tohno now. Tohno tries to get up again, but gets shot down right away. Greece catches up, it's 4-4 now. Tohno seems to be done for at last. Akaya has tears in his eyes.

Trivia[]

Other Trivia[]

  • He and his brother are the first foreign siblings introduced.
  • Apollon (Apollo in Greek to English translations) is one of the most important and complex of the Olympian deities in classical Greek and Roman religion and Greek and Roman mythology. The ideal of the kouros (a beardless, athletic youth), Apollon has been variously recognized as a god of music, truth and prophecy, healing, the sun and light, plague, poetry, and more. Apollon is the son of Zeus and Leto, and has a twin sister, the chaste huntress Artemis. Apollon is known in Greek-influenced Etruscan mythology as Apulu.
  • His Chinese name is written as 阿波罗·斯特凡诺普洛斯, which translates to Apollo Stephanopoulos.
  • Tohno told Kimijima who his favourite executor is although Kimijima said he is not interested. Turns out Tohno's favourite executor is the ancestors of Apollon and Orion and Kimijima commented how ironic it is that Tohno is executed by his favourite executor's descendants.
  • In Greek Mythology, his older twin sister is Artemis. It is likely, Artemis may be the name of his younger (twin) sister.
