“Winter Days!” “Fuyu no Hi!” (冬の日!)

As the cold winter weather moves in, Yui offers to have nabe with everyone, but the girls are drawn away from each other by various concerns and obligations. Mio retreats to the beach alone to get inspiration for her lyrics, Tsumugi gets a part-time job at a fast food restaurant, Ritsu goes to a movie with her little brother Satoshi, and Azusa looks after Jun’s pet kitten. However, Mio cannot think of any lyrics, Tsumugi buckles under the pressure of her first job, and Azusa is left panicked and uncertain what to do when the kitten seems to be ill. A random, silly text from Yui cheers up the others and she goes to help Azusa with the kitten, who was just coughing up a hairball. They all meet up for burgers at Tsumugi’s restaurant later, where Ritsu is shocked to learn that what she thought was a love letter addressed to her were actually song lyrics Mio wrote.

“Light Music!” “Keion!” (軽音!)

Yui is still sick from her cold, which is possibly attributed to her wearing a short yukata for too long. As the band tries to make do with Azusa as lead guitarist, Yui supposedly shows up over with her cold. However, her playing is too perfect and when she accidentally messes up her honorifics, it is revealed that she is actually Ui, who had managed to play after a few days practice. Yui appears, but is still in no condition to play, so Mio tells her to stay home and recuperate until the day of the live performance. Yui eventually makes it in time, but forgets her guitar at home, so Sawako fills in for her while she goes to get it. Yui returns in time for the second song and the performance goes well, and the band even does an encore.

“Crisis!” “Pinchi!” (ピンチ!)

When Ritsu is reminded by Nodoka to fill in the stage-use application form in advance, the band members notice they do not have a name yet. Azusa inspects the rust on Yui’s guitar strings, and it becomes apparent that Yui has never given her guitar maintenance before. They take it to the guitar shop, where Mio is entranced by rare left-handed bass guitars. After the guitar is repaired Yui realizes that she has to pay for the maintenance service, but has not brought any money with her. Though Tsumugi offers to pay instead, the shopkeeper, refusing to take money from her, tells her to consider it a free service. Later, Ritsu starts to become jealous of Mio spending time with Nodoka and begins to fall out with her. She ends up with a fever, so Mio visits and smooths things over, joined later by the other girls. Back at school, a recovered Ritsu gets in trouble for failing to turn in the application form on time, but Nodoka backs her up in front of the student council. Since the girls are unable to decide on a name for the band, Sawako makes an executive decision and assigns the name “After School Tea Time” to the band. Yui unfortunately ends up catching Ritsu’s cold.

“Another Training Camp!” “Mata Gasshuku!” (また合宿!)

Azusa and Ui hang out together for the first time for lunch, joined later by a stealthy Ritsu. Yui and Ritsu invite Sawako to join their next training camp, but she appears uninterested. The gang arrive at an even larger villa than last year, though Tsumugi apologetically points out that it is still not as large as the one she had desired. Yui and Ritsu want to play and Mio and Azusa want to practice, but Tsumugi casts the deciding vote in favor of playing. Although Azusa objects, she ends up having the most fun anyway, even getting sunburned in the process. After practice, dinner, and fireworks, Ritsu suggests a test of courage, and Mio and Azusa are shocked by the sudden appearance of Sawako. In the middle of the night, Azusa discovers Yui practicing the guitar, and they bond. Azusa meets up with Ui again, saying that despite not practicing much, she enjoyed the trip as she got to know more about the group.

“New Club Member!” “Shinnyū Buin!” (新入部員!)

Azusa officially joins the club, but is shocked to find everyone drinking tea and eating cake instead of practicing. She yells at them when Sawako tells her off for actually practicing, but Yui manages to calm her down with a surprising tactic. Despite her objections, Azusa finds herself weak against Tsumugi’s tea and cakes. Yui herself is rather shocked that Azusa plays guitar much better than herself. Sawako brings a pair of cat ears for Azusa to wear, much to Azusa’s discomfort, leading Yui to give her the nickname “Azu-nyan”, as “nyan” is the Japanese counterpart of “meow”. Noticing that Azusa is a bit upset, Mio encourages the band to practice more, but the group quickly reverts to its lazy state. Azusa then becomes frustrated, wondering as to why the band members she admired at the live performance behave as they do. After Azusa expresses her frustration, Mio explains to her that she stays in the band because they have fun performing together and because they like each other, thus convincing Azusa to stay.

“Freshman Reception!” “Shinkan!” (新歓!)

The second year of high school begins. Ui Hirasawa enters the Sakuragaoka High School along with a girl named Azusa Nakano. The Light Music Club tries to gather new members by all means.

“Christmas!” “Kurisumasu!” (クリスマス!)

Yui’s sister Ui Hirasawa remembers how Yui once attempted to give her a white Christmas when they were little, by putting pillow-stuffing on the tree outside. Ritsu decides to hold a Christmas party for the club, and while her initial plans of holding it at Tsumugi’s house fail, they eventually decide to have it at Yui’s house while Yui’s parents are on vacation. Yui’s friend Nodoka Manabe also gets an invitation. The girls decide to hold a gift exchange at the party, and go shopping for various gifts. Ui prepares a lovely Christmas dinner for the group, which gets a little out of hand when Sawako shows up out of nowhere. After the gift exchange, Yui and Ui end up giving each other just the right warm accessories for the winter. After the rest of the group leaves, snow falls and Yui and Ui decide to sleep together, though, unfortunately for Ui, Yui ends up hogging the sheets. In the New Year, the club decides to visit the shrine to make their New Year wishes.

“School Festival!” “Gakuensai!” (学園祭!)

It’s the day of the school festival. The club performs for the first time.

“Advisor!” “Komon!” (顧問!)

The Light Music Club does not have an adviser yet. Ritsu Tainaka blackmails the music teacher Sawako Yamanaka so she will be their club’s supervisor. Mio Akiyama writes a song for the school festival but they can’t decide who will be the band’s vocalist.

“Training Camp!” “Gasshuku!” (合宿!)

The girls go to a training camp in a beachside villa owned by Tsumugi Kotobuki family after Mio Akiyama became inspired by a tape recording of the previous Light Music Club members’ performance.

“Cram Session!” “Tokkun!” (特訓!)

Yui Hirasawa must pass on the midterm exams or else she won’t be allowed to stay in the Light Music Club anymore. The others help Yui study to pass her second chance.

“Instruments!” “Gakki!” (楽器!)

The members of the Light Music Club go out to buy Yui Hirasawa a guitar. Yui gets sight of a Gibson Les Paul electric guitar, however, it’s too much expensive, so the girls got part-time jobs so they can afford it.

“Disband the Club!” “Haibu!” (廃部!)

Yui Hirasawa, a new high school student, wonders if she should join a club or not. Meanwhile, Ritsu Tainaka is trying to revive the school’s Light Music Club. Ritsu’s childhood friend, Mio Akiyama wonders what club to join. Tsumugi Kotobuki runs into Ritsu while looking for the chorus club and Ritsu finds that she must get at least four members to join to save the club from being disbanded.
