Pretty funny start. Aoyama’s obsession with cleanliness is extreme but kinda entertaining, especially how he handles soccer in such a weirdly precise way. It’s not your usual sports anime vibe, more like comedy with a quirky main character.

Episode Context

A comedy-sports premiere that hooks you with a simple, absurd concept and commits to it fully. Aoyama is a legitimately gifted soccer player who happens to be pathologically obsessed with cleanliness, and the show mines that contradiction for every laugh it can get. Expect rapid-fire gags built around hygiene rituals colliding with the inherently dirty world of competitive soccer, anchored by teammate Kaoru Zaizen's bewildered reactions and coach Miwa Takei's dry commentary. The soccer action itself is surprisingly energetic, with clean animation that gives the sport sequences real momentum. The tone lands somewhere between absurdist character comedy and genuine sports enthusiasm, never taking itself too seriously but investing enough in the premise to make you curious about where Aoyama's story goes. A brisk, funny opener that establishes its weird lane and owns it.
