----------------------------------------
I have to admit, this was fun to watch. Aoyoma is a character that gives off the cool vibe.

He reminds me of Sakamoto with his presence.

I think he's a bit of a clean freak too. Seems the show is selling comedy with mostly Aoyoma's character personality and actions. Fun stuff so far with the addition of soccer mixed into the story. Some the other characters seems okay so far. I kinda find that Moka girl to be amusing most of the segments. Umeya seems like a tough dude.

Probably wont be the best soccer anime ever but it had its fun moments. Definitely like it when its more soccfer focused than germaphobe quirk focused though.

I hope they play this team again, so many funny moments.

This was surprisingly fun to watch. Being a clean freak helped Aoyama-kun to be this good.

Hope this continues to be good.

Didn't know what to expect from this, but it was a bit stupid (in a good way) and I enjoyed watching it.

The lighting at the more serious scenes was really nice, and I really liked the chibis. I'm interested to see how they'll split the sports scenes and the cleaning gag scenes.

I feel like this is gonna get little to none attention. But it's gonna be good and aah...I hope I'm wrong.

Other than that it's having interesting idea at lest. The comedy I really hope is the main thing on the anime cuz we saw a bit of intense football action(for like 5 min.) so who knows ¯_(ツ)_/¯.

As for the slice of life part...from the first ep kinda under the average. Buut again lets hope it's the comedy that keeps the anime good.(man it's a lot of hoping xD)

This is the first series that I have some complaints about for this season... I dunno, like I enjoyed it but there's something that felt out of place for me that didn't made me enjoy it fully. It's most likely the clean freak joke that got a bit stale for me. It might be that, or the second thing being that I needed a break and then watch it afterwards. Will see in the next few episodes.

I will admit, Aoyama is very cute though, as well as the soccer parts are quite enjoyable.

Well, not a bad episode to start things off. Good comedy and a slight bit of serious football first up and I hope this will continue since the slice of life genre doesn't seem to be particularly standing out. Aoyama kind of reminds of Sakamoto, though, so definitely something I'll be looking forward to see how his characterization progresses if at all. The Supporting characters seem like a bunch of likable characters too, so that's also a plus for the anime. A decent Op but an unpredictable yet slightly weird animated Ending which is nothing out of the ordinary, to say the least.

Abs guy voiced by Dio's voice actor makes for great laughs in my case LOL

Aoyama's last goal was cool, he shows his passion for football, even willing to get dirty for a little bit of time.

This was fun, i enjoyed this one. Looking forward to more.

Great start, really enjoyed this one.

Aoyama- Clean Freak, Germophobe - Wants to play football without getting dirty? This should be really amusing. I can't wait to see what kind of reaction he'll have if he ever gets tackled down by skilled players. XD

I love the switches to the chibi style, makes the scenes kinda cute and funny as well.

The final moments were nice with Aoyama showing his passion for football and willingness to get dirty if it meant winning. The goals went by fairly quick but it was an introductory game so I'm not gonna pick out anything.

Really looking forward to this and literally the only thing I want is for the matches to actually be animated and not just a slideshow of still frames like Days was.

This is one of the worst sport anime i've ever watched. There is no signs of tension or competition. Just a waste of time. And the main character is disgusting. 1/10 dropped.

Ok, this is what it looks like, if you put Sakamoto and Levi in a blender xD

The first episode wasn't bad, but I think I need a bit to get warm with this show.

Yep, one-trick-pony gag comedy red flags all around. Unless this gets a supporting cast at least on par with Tanaka-kun's, the comedy's going to run dry within a couple episodes at best.

I thought the same. He is like a mix of Tanaka and Sakamoto (from Sakamoto desu ga?)
Am I the only one that thinks Aoyama-kun has OCD? Has anybody heard of this mental illness? Being germaphobe is basically having OCD, right? Correct me if I'm wrong.

I'll just continue watching this for the bromance parts

Wow this was a disappointing start. Not only was the animation terribly jerky, the story was pretty lacklustre and I can't stand Aoyama. These no personality silent anime characters are the goddamn worst and this is such a bad example. His stupid fangirls are annoying as sin too. The only characters this is worth it for atm are Kaoru and the abs guy, who both feel way more like main characters than the actual main character does.

Cute anime. I feel bad for Aoyama though...

Also I don't know why, but Sakamoto desu ga? and Handa-kun styled anime are really becoming some of my favourites.

I don't really like the choice of voice actor for Aoyama, Hiroshi Kamiya or Keisuke Ueda would have been better, perhaps

Agreed. Sometimes I like the silent types, if they're shy or flawed in a reasonable way, but Aoyama reminds me too much of the perfect Sakamoto type which is zero relatable as a character -_-
Animation made me cringe.

And like, it's just not that funny so far imo (except the ending song, it was ridiculously retro for no reason so I chuckled at that). It felt more like a mixture of various recent sports anime rather than its own thing /:

Well that was definitely interesting.

Watching him trying to stay clean throughout the game until the last 5 minutes was funny at times.

I do know a neat freak like that.

I actually enjoyed this a bit, looking forward to the next episode.

I think I didn't know about this anime before today, but I decided to give it a try even though I don't like soccer, I'm not even into sports, but the fact that he's a clean freak caught my eye, I like cleanliness, which causes me to struggle with things sometimes. I really enjoyed this first episode, and he reminded me to Levi, his cool aura and his like for the pristine

I have to say... That final quality kick was good af. Like I felt the budget for the whole episode went to that kick, the animation was nice and when that song came in. Yeah I can see the comedy getting old, hopefully they add more supporting cast, should beef up the comedy.

I actually really love soccer anime, so when I saw this I was pretty hyped. The animation is pretty nice, Aoyama-kun seems like a riot and the other guy with him, they'll be a pretty funny duo to watch. The girl with short black hair who was sharpening a key at night seems weird af, but I have high expectations for this show. Hopefully it'll be good...

hmm thought this was mainly gonna be a full on gag anime still feels a tad bit more on the sports side ,i did enjoy the fact the MC is a germaphobe but he falls to closely into the Handa-kun ,Sakamoto type without the self-awareness aspect that at least made it fun to watch Hanada haven't finished Sakamoto, but i just don't like these perfect-kun types and it gets repetitive real quick.

i did get some laughs i'll see how it goes, it's clear they tried their best to make it look nice but something just felt off like you could tell they were cutting some corners with the animation with the amount of stills though characters themselves look good.

I thought it was going to be like Sakamoto desu ga but instead it's more like a sports anime with the joke just tacked on. I really don't care for sports anime, so if it stays like it was in the first episode I might drop it.

I laughed my ass off when I heard Koyasu's voice. Anyways, decent first episode. It's more of a gag series than a sports series, and I'm fine with that. Hopefully the joke doesn't feel too repetitive.

Stale episode, the laughs were legit from the first half but gradually became old in the second half. I will be sticking though as Koyasu, Seki, Neya and Okiayu are in this show. Still shows veterans can play youngster characters on a super high level.

I thought the premise was funny, but in reality, it got old quickly. The gags fell flat, the pacing was slow, the characters had one or two quirks but were otherwise uninteresting. I started tapping fast-forward halfway through and didn't bother sticking around for the ED because I was bored of the show already. I had hopes for this to be my light-hearted rest-stop series this season, but will be looking elsewhere.

I laughed sooo much the entire time & the episode went by very quickly. I also love that it's mainly veteran seiyuu. I can relate a lot to Aoyama and I'm glad the coach understands how he needs to have things clean. I have high hopes for this series.
