Synopsis
One day, Kurt, a kind-hearted boy, is suddenly kicked out of the Hero's Party for being "useless." He finds that his aptitude for weapons, magic, and all other combat-related skills is the lowest rand, so he takes odd-jobs repairing the castle walls and digging for minerals, where his exceptional abilities are immediately revealed. He proves to be skillful in cooking, building, mining, crafting magical tools—in fact, his aptitude for every skill unrelated to combat had an SSS-ranking! Kurt, however, seems completely unaware to his talent and ends up saving people, the town, and even the country through his unaware actions!? (Source: AlphaPolis)

In the past, the posters had noticeably better art than the show itself, but this is not the first time that the show itself has animation and the art is noticeably better than...advertising illustration... But getting back to the show itself, the synopsis looks like a pretty interesting attempt to combine the "kicked out of the party due to mistaken uselessness" cliche and the "protagonist is super genius at side things" cliche together. A sort of manifesto for crafters.
