that just brings me back around to seems off but fair enough what does this have to do with Apollo specifically wanting extra heat though. Apollo never brings up this reasoning and it's never implied in-episode. fair point maybe this one's on me for not assuming he was talking about his form before his previous form's previous form but you can see how that comes off as weird in-episode right then why did he say someone gave him the sword
 * Ascalon can't Specifically do that, he used Ascalon to turn himself into iron
 * 1) why can Ascalon do that
 * iron merging with iron core seems like a pretty simple concept to me
 * my logic for this would be that the magnetic field of the Earth would effectively act like an extension of his own mind. Since I assumed the liquid iron core was responsible for the magnetic field, that was why iron was the perfect material but, say, Hydrogen would not be.
 * Apollo has made many references to the planet's high-iron content before, how that's perfect, as well as references to godhood.
 * Kaiju Apollo was way weaker than Ascalon Apollo was.
 * Sure nobody gave him the sword, but Apollo was the first one to get to the aftermath of their fight and claim Ascalon.

tbh a lot of this just portrays Apollo as a dumbass who got lucky for a while and then died complaining about it.
