So far this has been highly generic shounen with a total underdog main character who needs to work 10 times harder than anybody else to produce results. But he also has some luck and destiny on his side, like shounen heroes do. I don't like the MC, so I don't like this show as much as some do, but I'll keep watching for now, so it's not terrible.

I don't really know how K-ON fits in here. Bill must have been drinking as much as that Tiramii creature in his avatar pic.
