Episode 1

**Aoyama-kun Is a Clean Freak!** *(*青山くんはキレイ好き*, Aoyama-kun wa Kireizuki)* is the first episode of Keppeki Danshi! Aoyama-kun.

## Official Synopsis

Aoyama, a genius high school student who represents Japan in the U-16 national team, has arrived at Fujimi High School's weak soccer team! However, he is an extreme clean freak! He generally avoids passing, heading, and contact play. Fujimi High School, which has Aoyama-kun, decides to play a match against Oshigami Minami High School, a prestigious soccer school. There, Aoyama reunites once again with U-16 forward player, Takechi! Aoyama-kun has the absolute territory called mysophobia. What will happen in this match...?

## Plot

The plot begins with one of Japan's National Team's matches against an unnamed team being broadcasted on TV. The game is closing in, and Aoyama scores the final point to win the match. The rest of his teammates attempt to pile upon him, however, Aoyama dodges all of them. He then says one of his famous quotes, "You know, I don't mind you celebrating... but can you please not hug me and stuff? You'll get me dirty." Aoyama is interviewed, though no dialogue is made out. Gotou Moka continues to watch as she hugs her giant cat plush.

Aoyama is shown hastily cleaning around the classroom while the rest of his classmates watch in awe. Shion Narita watches as Aoyama cleans his desk. He feels empathy towards Aoyama, as a fellow clean freak himself. During his aggressive scrubbing, Zaizen Kaoru barges in screaming Aoyama's name. He asserts that practice has already started, although Aoyama is already worn out from his frantic cleaning.

The rest of the team warms up by running around the field. Meanwhile, Aoyama is by the sinks scrubbing his hands, with of course, spectators. The rest of the team practices casually until they are interrupted by girls screaming and fangirling over Aoyama. This infuriates Zaizen, as he doesn't want Aoyama to keep skipping out on practice. Soon after they are met with a water break. Zaizen is made aware that he will have to be linking up with Aoyama due to their playing positions, which he opposes as he knows of Aoyama's extreme clean freak nature. Zaizen tries to throw Aoyama a bottle of water, and Aoyama dodges. After their coach, Takei Miwa, hands him a water bottle, he goes to clean the bottle out again.

The team continues to practice until sunset. Zaizen makes a goal with his head, and tells Sakai, Yoshioka, and Tsukamoto to quit spoiling Aoyama. Gaku then points out Zaizen's rich background, which embarrasses him. Commotion starts between the soccer team, and the baseball team joins in. Zaizen quickly steals a bat, and hits a baseball out of the park out of comedy effect. Zaizen wants Aoyama to "start taking soccer seriously", and attempts to grab him to assert himself further. He's met with Coach Miwa performing a judo throw, "ippon seoi nage" on Zaizen after she told him to get along with Aoyama.

After practice, Zaizen walks back to the clubroom, where he sees Gotou attempting to lock pick the lock on the door since Aoyama was inside. After seeing Zaizen, she frantically dashes away. Zaizen then meets Coach Miwa, and they watch Aoyama clean the of soccer balls inside the clubroom while they discuss about Aoyama's extreme mysophobia.
