He is charming, cool, athletic, a good cook, but more importantly, he's a clean freak. Aoyama is idolized and respected by everyone, but they can only admire him from afar due to his mysophobia. Despite that, he plays soccer—a rather dirty sport! As the playmaker for Fujimi High School's soccer club, Aoyama avoids physical contact at all cost and cleanly dribbles toward victory. However, the path to Nationals will not be easy for Fujimi's underdog team. But alongside striker Kaoru Zaizen, Aoyama will show everyone that even as a clean freak, there are things he's willing to get dirty for. [Written by MAL Rewrite]
Nenhum episódio encontrado.
We were expecting a football animation. Instead, we received a comedy with some interesting and funny moments. Aoyama is a soccer star that suffers from a cleaning complex. He hates being touched. He needs to see everything clean. He needs to cook his food. How can a person like this be the center of the attention and one of the youth soccer stars from Japan? In the beginning, I was waiting to see a sports anime and football matches every time. After some episodes, the football became irrelevant. The story focus on the events full of jokes and actions from the football squad and all thepersons related to it. The jokes aren't bad, sometimes are silly but are executed smartly. However, there are few moments dull. The characters are standard as we can expect from this kind of comedy. Aoyama is another guy that is good in everything that he does and sometimes is annoying. Also, he needs to clean everything. His friends are the ones that carry all the responsibility of the comedy. Without them, Aoyama could sink in boredom. Let's thank the other characters for the jokes. Ayoma has lots of admirers, including a person that loves him. The plot mixes everything, football, manga, a love triangle, fights, challenges and maybe some stupid actions. You will laugh at the situations. You will laugh after seeing some epic moments, but after some hours you will forget the fun and will focus on other things. This kind of animation is fun for the first time, but you aren't going to repeat it. The art and the music are standard. Do not expect too much from it. It was created to fill the time. At least the art isn't like the ending of the anime. The sound isn't a big thing. It is standard, and the OST isn't that amazing but does the job, same for the OP and ED. Finally, yes you will laugh but nothing more. The show isn't a great comedy but has some fresh, hilarious moments. Do not hope to see a competitor for Captain Tsubasa because it isn't. Expect to spend some minutes laughing at the situations, but that's all. If you are a freak (kidding) that loves sports anime, this won't be the right anime for you. If you are a soccer fan, you will get disappointed and will say "what a waste of time."
YOU. MUST. WATCH. THIS. Even though it says it's seinen, I believe it is also shonen and shojo, basically for everyone. If you like sports, more specifically soccer, watch this. If you like comedy, watch this. If you like romance, watch this. If you think this is not for you, at least watch the first episode, you might be surprised. I LOVE this anime. The story was so interesting and characters were so interesting and made me laugh so many times! The sound and art was crisp and perfect. Keppeki Danshi! Aoyama-kun is definitely one of my favorites! I think I'm actually in love withAoyama-kun, he's so adorable and cute, and he's not even trying! Overall, I had an amazing experience watching this anime and I hope there is a second season or that I can find more animes similar to this one. So, what I'm trying to say is... YOU. MUST. WATCH. THIS.
"Keppeki Danshi! Aoyama-kun" is kinda strange show. My experience with sport shows is I had two categories: the competitive and serious one such as Haikyuu and then the non competitive (or just not focused on the competitions) comedic one such as Yuri!!! on Ice. Yes, Yuri!!! on Ice does have the main character enter a competition but the anime doesn't really focus on the competition. It focuses on the characters. Back to Keppeki Danshi! Aoyama-kun, it doesn't fit in those two types I'm familiar with. This show was weird because it focus on comedy half of the time. Being a comedic show with sort of plotprogression with end game objective, the story becomes fragmented with the episodes dedicated to 2 character spotlights. The show doesn't just focus on Aoyama and his sport team. We do the coach, manager, a mangaka, a basketball girl (yes, we had an episode on basketball instead of soccer), and a fellow germaphobe student. Since comedy is binary, you will have some episodes which give you laughter or not. I had my favorite characters, the manager/stalker who loves Aoyama and the judo guy. Since I'm not good with names and didn't bother with checking it for the review, the characters in this show might be hard to remember for those who aren't good with names like me. You will remember their quirks. That's pretty much the strength of the show's comedy: the wacky characters and their interactions. For sports, the show does up its animation during its few intense soccer matches. It doesn't feature as much if you wanted soccer. The weakness of the show for me is it ends with a weak bang. It doesn't really entice me for a second season. It was like a one trick pony ice cream that you just wanted to taste first time and won't go back. It's a shame because I loved the show when I saw the first few episodes. 6/10 for me in rating this show. I wish it went out with a bang or have some plot objective but being a comedic show, it might have killed its sport element. With a cast huge, you can barely remember all of them. You will be sure to have some favorites.
(Spoiler Warning) If you're looking for a traditional soccer anime, you'll be very disappointed. Putting that aside, if you're looking for a short-running show with some comedic moments, you may find enjoyment in Clean Freak! Aoyama-kun. Aoyama's perfect character is very boring to me, he doesn't have any conflict or any sort of progression in the twelve episode season. He doesn't have any motive to join Fujimi High School's underdog soccer team besides that the jerseys are white. Aoyama has a legion of followers, both male and female, that see him as an idol. Their "Clean, clean Aoyama!" chants get annoying very quick. Aoyama's only interesting charactertrait is that he's a germaphobe. He won't eat food prepared by other people, he rarely allows people to touch him. One of Aoyama's underdeveloped traits is that he's a gamer, and he acts very differently in-game while in-person. Most of the side characters are dull and they are only used for comic relief. Most of the jokes that are from the side characters are used time and time again. There's just not enough time to develop the side characters to be multi-dimensional. Most of the other people on the soccer team are given one trait, or just there. Bottom line, they're mostly forgettable. I'll give the show some slack because there are only twelve episodes. Only occasionally are the side characters successful in their comedic attempts, and I find it most often with Gotou's interactions with the other characters. The times when Aoyama interacts with the other germaphobe makes for some interesting dialogue. The times when Fujimi High is playing soccer is very predictable, and with Aoyama only actually trying in the final five minutes, the result can always be known. The most interesting episodes in this show are the times when Aoyama & crew are put into a unique situation outside of school, or when the side characters get the spotlight. Unfortunately, some of the most interesting characters are the ones only seen in one or two episodes. The Ozaki-centered episode is by far the most interesting, with his attempts to make an interesting manga based on Aoyama's actions in school. Umeya's episode with Gouto is also one of the better ones. The OST is nothing special, its generic j-rock that you can find in most animes. The animation is clean and fluid. The animation style used while Aoyama is gaming is a nice change of pace. The outro animation also has a unique style. Passable. All in all, Clean Freak! Aoyama-kun seems rushed, poorly planned, and executed inadequately. Aoyama's singular trait is boring, and most of the gaffs of the side characters are overused. The show's strongest strength is when they do succeed at comedy, and it's seldom used side characters. There are better shows for you to watch.
If your looking for a sport futbol anime of going for the goal, this ain't it. This is more of a comedy, if your looking for a laugh. Story: There are actually several stories in this comedy anime of each teammate, yet more about Aoyama-kun of the clean freak. The stories give a good laugh. Characters: The character's are amazing in Keppeki Danshi!. My favorite two are Aoyama-kun and Gotou, Moka. You see why if you watch it. Art: The art is really great in this anime. You get clear image if watching 1080p. Enjoyment: Like posted before, this is a comedy. You will laugh watchingthis one. Overall: It was a good watch, yet I thought it be better than "Knight in the Area."
I enjoy a lot of easy to digest, funny, cute animes and I find the art style very appealing, but honestly not worth your time and the entire thing is really forgettable. The story is boring, action scenes are weak and obviously didn't have much funding, the characters are flat (barely saw any kind of development in any of them) and overall just would not recommend unless you're into hot anime dudes and just want a cheap laugh. Also, despite lacking any development between characters, there were filler episodes and they were just dull. TL;DR: Don't watch if you're looking for something amazing (the plot isweak), but do so if you're looking for v cute boys that are kinda funny ^^
First of all, this is not your kind of tournament sport shounen. It is more like a comedy episodic anime combined with soccer. BUT, the comedy is the main part of this anime. So the soccer part indeed comes pretty short. Nevertheless, I REALLY enjoyed this anime. The comedy is very good, reminds me a bit of Saiki, which is in my eyes a masterpiece of comedy. The animations are stunning, something you have never seen in a soccer anime. The characters all have their own funny style, but they dont get much development, because this is more like an episodic anime like Saiki. Personally, I think thatthey should have focused more on the soccer part. It would have been huge to see a hyped up soccer game in such great animations. To keep this review short and to not give too much away, I will end it here. If you want to watch a funny episodic soccer/school Anime with great animations, you should DEFINETLY give this anime a chance. If you just want to watch great sport tournament arcs and character improvements, then this anime probably does not suit you.
Let’s get this out of the way: this isn’t a sports anime. This isn’t focused on the sports and competitions that Aoyama has to go through and his journey to the top. It’s really just about how much of a clean freak Aoyama is. It isn’t bad if you know what you’re getting into. However, it must be said that there isn’t a goal that the plot and characters are headed towards. Like, sure, it’s stated that they want to go to Nationals but we don’t see that come to fruition. Aoyama is just a clean freak and his soccer teammates have to deal with that.Aoyama doesn’t have much to his character except that he’s a germaphobe. So do the other characters. The art style is pleasing to the eye and so are the colours. The animation is pretty good for a lighthearted watch that doesn’t require much thought. If you don’t mind all of this, then I recommend you watch it for the lighthearted aspect of it.
I have to confess that I started watching this anime because of the amount of bad reviews I heard about it, but I ended up finding a cleaning maniac who plays one of the dirtiest sports that can exist besides rugby. As a lover of sports animes, you probably will not like it, because out of the 12 episodes, we could say that at most, 4, focus on football. And I'm exaggerating a little bit. But if you're a comedy lover like me, then you'll definitely get a couple laughs and have a good time. Although sometimes you get the impression that the anime wants to pushcertain subjects, such as romance for example, but I must admit that the art is really good and one of the top reasons why I watched it till the end. The characters are very particular and you get used to them, mainly the protagonist, who until the end (literally) doesn't lose the characteristic touch that defines him. The music in general is quite acceptable. I'd have liked a deeper development of the side characters, like the team goalkeeper for example. In fact, even the protagonist is left with dilemmas at the end of the series. But after all, it's comedy, what could you expect from that? All the chapters focus on the same thing and that's what the plot is about. If you are expecting something more serious related to sport, then you need to keep looking. However, I really enjoyed it. And that's why I hesitated to rate it 6 or 7.
I ended up underestimating and a lot of this anime, I had watched 4 episodes and I gave up continuing, and then some time later I decided to take courage to go to the end, it was one of the best things I've done in my life. From episode 6 onwards the anime was extremely entertaining, he began to explore the secondary characters, make creative episodes, develop the characters etc. The anime at a certain point begins to express the characters better, shows their side better while working the relationships between them. Zaizen who could not score a goal Gotou who did not have his love matched Aoyamawho wanted to relate to his friends but could not because of his phobia. It is very well worked out their relationship as a team, aoyama who was shown how invincible managed to be overcome by someone, it can often seem like a simple robot but at certain times is shown that he has his own feelings. He does not like cheating, he helps his friends, he notices their efforts and encourages them, and with this he manages to unite the whole team creating an unparalleled fun! talking about art, I liked it, it's quite average but since anime is more focused on comedy than soccer is understandable, the animation was above average but only at specific moments like the final 5 minutes of the matches when aoyama stay his " very hard mode " sound, the anime itself does not have many osts but the ones they had were quite iconic, the opening and ending for example are sensational, it seems until the anime is really serious the characters as I mentioned above are great, they are not totally exploited at maximum but in the moments that appeared in the episode they captivate you enough making you create an attachment for their personalities Enjoyment is truly the best part of this anime, not massive to watch, always putting something to work on an episode, funny moments with iconic personalities that contributed to the comedy Finally ending, aoyama is a very entertaining anime, do not watch waiting for a masterpiece, watch casually that I have sure it will have fun taking all the previous points my final grade is 8/10 I especially recommend it for those who like comedy!
This was... an experience. If you're expecting a sports anime, it's probably time for you to leave, because this is definitely not what you're looking for. This was a mess-- a good mess-- but a mess nonetheless. I'm gonna unravel what happened in this series for the people who are on the fence about watching this. First off, I started watching this show because I saw a clip of a cute scene from around episode 8-ish on youtube, and expected the whole show to be somewhat similar. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case, but it wasn't all bad either. To begin with, the plot is a strange,strange thing. I have never played or been interested in watching soccer, so I expected to be bored. However, there is strangely little actual soccer content. While it does have some aspects of a sports anime, I think it's very little and a little inaccurate. Overall, it does a better job as an episodic comedy with a few running gags. It wasn't exactly my style of humor, but I enjoyed it somewhat still. In addition to a comedy, it's almost partially Food Wars and has a few Ouran High School Host Club-style jokes tied in. Overall, it's not a bad plot, but it's not really overarching and doesn't make a lot of sense a lot of the time. Hands down, this is some of the most beautifully simple animation I've seen in a while. I watched this after watching a lot of shoujos and old anime, so maybe it impacted me more than I thought, but every character is honestly so beautiful. The backgrounds are done with great precision and everything seems pretty realistic, in all honesty, despite being anime. In addition, some of the water/sports graphics in general were honestly so well done that I rewound to watch it again. It was also one of the main reasons I wanted to watch the show in the first place. The soundtracks were honestly nothing special. All of them were pretty forgettable except the closing, which was supposed to be somewhat of a parody. Despite the series being named after him, Aoyama himself is not very interesting other than his being mysterious. He is pretty much perfect in everything. The only time we see any character in him is through his video game avatar where is isn't limited by his crippling fear of germs. Other than that, he hardly shows any real human feelings. On the other hand, some of the other characters were honestly pretty fun and unique, but none enough so that they stand out from the crowd of millions of other anime characters. Overall, pretty humdrum as far as that goes. This anime isn't bad. I'll say that upright. At the same time, in my standards, it wasn't all that good either. It was honestly pretty lukewarm. I enjoyed it enough to get through it, but I probably will never watch it again. I would recommend this if you: like perfect main characters, like sports anime bc of the hot guys, like running gags I would NOT recommend this if you: are here bc you like soccer/serious sports anime, are expecting this to be about Aoyama's crippling germophobia (I mean it is, but not really dealing with the issue or getting him any help, is what I mean), like a lot of plot or character development Have a great day everyone!
Often times i find myself enjoying dumb but funny anime and Aoyama Kun is no exception. Story: Aoyama Kun gives off a very Sakamoto vibe (If you havent watched Sakamoto desu ga? you should really watch it), everyone loves him but he doesn't seem to need to try. The only difference is that Aoyama is a germophobe, an interesting and comedic trope that gets kinda stale by the end of the anime. However each episode isn't always centred around Aoyama which leaves open space for both people living around Aoyama and himself to grow. Unlike Sakamoto, Aoyama isn't too mysterious, his intentions aren't confusing andhis past isn't shrouded in mystery, the only mystery is his family. Aoyama isn't all fun games every episode, some episodes explore characters and give another point of view like 5 which explores one of the 3 goofball's tragic past. The anime isn't a sports anime, even though there's a lot of soccer, the main focus of the anime is Aoyama and his obsession to be clean. Art: The art in Clean Freak Aoyama-Kun, is how do I say it? Clean Sound: The soundtrack is enjoyable, I often find myself sitting through the OP and ED. Especially the OP is super catchy Character: Every character in Keppeki Danshi! Aoyama Kun is unique and no 2 characters are the same. Even the 3 goofball's are differentiated 2 of them given their own episodes. Each character is well explored but only enough so they can keep the humour in. Almost every character is likeable and even the ones who aren't, isn't obnoxiously annoying having at least some likable quality. Aoyama Kun is a very enjoyable character, however the Germaphobe thing gets pretty old by the end of the anime. However his obsession of having everything clean creates comedic potential and his ability to play soccer well alongside his germaphobe creates some very enjoyable moments. Overall enjoyment: Keppeki Danshi! Aoyama Kun is most definitely an enjoyable anime and very worth picking up for a bit of goofs and gaffs.
Lets start off with the main point it has elements of sport anime and leans heavy on sport elements but its not a sport anime,so if youre looking for one this is not it, i would say its main genre is comedy.Its okay to watch i guess if you dont have anything better to watch and have the time to watch 12 episodes which is not that time consuming. I was kinda dissapointed because i thought the sport element would stand out more.Whats a good plus in the score department this anime has occasional funny scenes. The art,sound,character and enjoyment levels are fair but notgreat. Score 6/10
most of the reviews the other gave are spot on,so i have nothing to add. But...........this anime is not a sports anime.......please dont watch it for soccer. The anime revolves around a clean freak and a couple of his friends to create a comedy anime. A lot of people think that this anime revolves around a clean freak being able to play soccer and improve with his problems but the anime shows how his daily life is and comedic problems of being a clean freak. they show soccer because its his passion and he is crazy about it. Then again being a clean freak makes him good ata lot more things cause he HAS to do everything by himself. by the point u read my review u must have read a lot.......so ill just say that this is an enjoyable anime with lots of laughs..............be sure to watch it for the comedy and not the soccer. p.s its not a sports anime
This is not really a soccer/football anime, it is more of a comedy anime. The character does not like to get dirty.Do not take this anime seriously. If you liked sakamoto desu ga, you (should) will enjoy this anime. There is a lot of joking about the character for why he is in the club. There are people who say the character didn't care about his teammates, but he does.(up to you) The supporting characters are actually good, more when they are with the main character. There is some romance also and some guy that wants Aoyama on his team. Story-8 Art-10 Sound-8 Character-10Enjoyment-10 Overall-9
Well what can i say about this anime, i've been binge watching it 12 episodes full and i can't just get enough, the concept is interesting, the plot is also interesting. It doesn't just focus on one character but every character including the supporting character itself gets portion of the story and for me that's kinda rare nowadays , the opening of this anime is also kick-ass the catchy tune and the animation that shown on the opening always gets me hype, to note this is not that typical "sports' anime, this anime has a slice of life element and also have many comedicmoments in it, so don't expect you will see many action in this anime. the animation is also cool the cute animation they did during some scenes are adorable and funny i can't get enough of it. so if you're looking for a "comedic slice of life sports" anime you should watch this anime. it's a pity though the studio didn't continue this anime to 2nd season, this anime helds potential to be one of the funniest and coolest anime
A very solid 8. I would give a 7, but I feel some of the other reviews discredit it too much since they were expecting something like Haikyuu, but in soccer form. I really like how it didn't turn to be some generic, cliche soccer anime though. It's a funny comedy, it's short, and it's easy to just sit down and watch. It has a very clean and simple feel to it (no pun intended). The characters are interesting and I like how it focuses on a new character almost every episode so that the viewer can gain insight into that universe. It's worth thewatch and even if you don't like it, it was only 12 episodes so it's not much of a hassle. Overall, it's not that serious and imo not every single anime should be treated like it's supposed to be some holy grail. I do recommend and you should probably watch it.
Really funny, really sweet, really fun and really beautiful. The art style--both character design and the show colour design--is absolutely wonderful in convoying the comedic and cleanliness of show. In the same vein of Daily Lives of High School Boys and I'm Sakamoto, with the added fun of both good clean sports anime while at the same time pointing fun at sports anime. The ending in particular is a great shout out to classic sport anime, and cast members having really dumb 'specialities'--like soccer tricks balancing a ball on your ass--is a fun take up of the superpowers in regular sports anime. If you like eithercomedy or sports this is a show is check out.
Summary: If you're expecting this to be a sports anime, you'll probably come away pretty surprised. Aoyama-kun is more like a school comedy that uses the soccer club as a setting than a series that's "about" soccer. That's a good thing though, as the series is very funny and has a number of great characters. It's held back by the disjointed structure of its plot (to the extent that there is one) but the characters are the main attraction here, not the story. If you're wondering whether the series can sustain the high concept gimmick at the center of the showfor 12 episodes without getting boring, the answer is yes, mostly by making the MC the least interesting part of the show and giving all the personality to the supporting characters. Positives: + It's funny. Lots of good jokes and gags. Moka and her spiked bat covered in flowers and kittens is the best ongoing gag in the series. + Good characters. Aoyama, the title character of the series, has little personality and often disappears for long stretches and I didn't even really mind, because all the other characters are so good. It's hard to praise specific characters without going down the whole list. I don't want to write that much and you don't want to read that much, so I'd just say that basically all of them are fun and entertaining in their own ways. + Easy to watch. The episodes go by fast and you never get bored. It's a simple and undemanding show that can entertain with very little effort required on the part of the viewer. I promise I don't mean this as a backhanded compliment, it's a good thing sometimes. Negatives: - Too disjointed. It can be explained to an extent by the fact that this is a slice of life show and never pretends otherwise, but it's almost maddening how many interesting storylines and characters get introduced and then vanish from the face of the earth, never to even be referenced again for the remainder of the series. There needed to be more follow-through on these stories and the series shouldn't have introduced characters that would be in for one episode before never appearing again, such as the manga writer or the rival soccer player and his girlfriend. - Weak romance subplot. Part of the broader problem with not following through on stories, but introducing a love polygon between Aoyama, Moka, Mio and Tsubasa only to drop it 2 episodes later like it never even happened was poor writing. It should have either been an ongoing story or not in the series at all. - Not enough Mio. There should have been more Mio.
