In the anime, the Brushido army are very dedicated to cleaning and fulfilling their duties with the utmost dedication. They are also very loyal to their commander, Washogun.
Each Brushido uses its broom to clean anything and everything until it sparkles, even in locations that humans normally neglect or can't reach. Typically, Brushido trave in huge armies under the command of Washogun to clean houses in a matter of minutes.
Anyone Inspirited by a Brushido begins to adopt its neat-freak behavior and start spontaneously cleaning.
He can randomly be battled (but not befriended) by washing your hands. Upon defeating him, you will obtain some Food items such as Boiled Egg, and find a Gold Tag in a cutscene following the battle.
An army of Brushido appear in EP050, led by their leader Washogun. They proceed to clean the Adams' house immediately. However, an enemy army of Messyrai - their red, filth-dedicated counterparts - appears to undo the work they have done, having been attracted by the filthiness of an unseen leader, ultimately revealed to be an unwitting Jibanyan. The two armies engage in combat, with the outcome mostly unseen except for Jibanyan being launched off the roof.
