Clean Freak! Aoyama kun

Aoyama is a national-level teenage soccer talent whose obsession with cleanliness shapes every technique, from avoiding tackles to wearing gloves for throw-ins.

Synopsis

The Anime Lad

Aoyama is a gifted high school soccer player who has already represented Japan. He is also intensely committed to cleanliness. Headers and tackles involve unacceptable contact, while throw-ins require gloves. His teammates must therefore accommodate a star whose technical standards include remaining presentable throughout an outdoor team sport.

Super Eyepatch Fox

Aoyama has elite soccer talent and a powerful aversion to dirt. He avoids both tackles and headers while using gloves for throw-ins. Those restrictions become a distinctive playing style rather than an excuse to sit out. School matches force teammates to work around their immaculate ace.

Gigguku

Soccer is built from sweat and contact, so giving its young genius an extreme cleanliness obsession is a ridiculous pressure cooker. Aoyama still has the skill to represent Japan. He simply approaches every play like contamination is another defender. Watching technique route around that limitation makes each match a comic tactical puzzle.

Father's Basement

The show repeats Aoyama's aversion to dirt often enough that nobody could miss the premise. Fortunately, it applies the joke directly to soccer. His refusal to tackle or head the ball changes how he plays, while the team must decide whether exceptional skill is worth adapting to an ace with highly specific boundaries.
