Description:
Apollo's Song follows the tragic journey of Shogo,​ a young man whose abusive childhood has instilled in him a loathing for love so profound he finds himself compelled to acts of violence when he is witness to any act of intimacy or affection whether by human or beast.​ His hate is such that the gods intervene,​ cursing Shogo to experience love throughout the ages,​ only to ultimately to have it ripped from his heart every time.​ From the Nazi atrocities of World War II to a dystopian future of human cloning,​ Shogo loses his heart,​ and,​ in so doing,​ heals the psychological scars of his childhood hatred.​

Story and art by Osamu Tezuka.​
