Kanon Shibuya takes the entrance exams for the music program at Yuigaoka Girls' High School. But she fails her singing test and ends up taking the general curriculum. She is approached by Keke Tang from her class who asks her to be a school idol with her.

Realizing that she still loves singing, Kanon decides to become a school idol. However, Ren Hazuki insists that school idols are not needed at Yuigaoka. Kanon tries to find Ren's weakness with Chisato's help only to find out that many students trust her.

The girls have to place 1st at a local festival to stay school idols. Chisato & Keke try to help Kanon get over her fear but nothing works. Keke tells Kanon she'll sing alone this time. Meanwhile, one of the most prominent groups, Sunny Passion, joins the festival.

Kuukaa wins the special newcomer award at the Yoyogi School Idol Fes and the director allows them to continue their school idol activities. Meanwhile, Sumire Heanna joins the club to fulfill her showbiz dreams, but when they try to decide the center...

With the addition of Sumire, the Yuigaoka School Idol Club now has 3 members. As they're cooling off from the heat at Kanon's house, they are unexpectedly visited by Sunny Passion, who invites the girls to perform with them at their home, Kozushima.

Kanon and her friends train with Sunny Passion for their next concert. Meanwhile, Chisato is training for her dance contest, and Ren spots Chisato's withdrawal letter to the school. Kanon and Chisato talk that night over the phone, but they seem distant.

A new school year has begun at Yuigaoka Girls' High School. Liella! is practicing up on the roof as usual, and a new student named Kinako Sakurakoji is drawn in by their voices. She ends up sneaking into the school and quietly watches them train and...

Liella! now has 6 members after Kinako joins, but no one joins after that. According to Kinako, the reason is because there were rumors that the training was too hard. Liella! decides to make their training regimen simpler to attract new students but…

Liella! is invited to be the headliner at a school idol fes that they performed at last year. While Kinako is nervous about her first big performance, one of the other performers named Wien Margarete lets her powerful voice resonate through the venue.

The first-year, Shiki Wakana, knows that her classmate, Mei Yoneme, loves school idols, but is having a hard time joining the School Idol Club, so she comes up with a plan. She decides to join Liella! herself and makes sure Mei finds out.

After Mei and Shiki join, Liella! now has 8 members. Natsumi Onitsuka finds out about Liella!'s popularity and tells them that she wants to produce them through her company. Liella! agrees so they can concentrate on their training, but Sumire has doubts.

The first-years go off to do their own thing during the summer which worries Kanon, but the others tell her it's a good thing that they're working hard on their own. Meanwhile, the first-years are at Kinako's home in Hokkaido with Natsumi for training.

Kanon is suddenly told that her study abroad was cancelled. At school, the remaining Liella! members continue to practice, determined to make up for Kanon's absence. Meanwhile, Margarete, who has become a student at Yuigaoka, establishes a "New School Idol Club" to compete with Liella!. However, Kanon sees a reflection of her former self in Margarete, who is unable to recruit new members. Kanon is torn between returning to Liella!, who she already said goodbye to, and isn't sure what decision she should make...

Natsumi's little sister, Tomari, joins the New School Idol Club and they begin their activities as Tomakanote. Their first show is an upcoming remote concert, but their motivations concerning school idols are totally different, causing some friction.

Liella! feels motivated more than ever after seeing Tomakanote's remote concert. To show Liella!'s new potential, Chisato chooses Shiki for the next center. Shiki is unsure why she's chosen for the center and passes out during practice from the pressure.

People start to wonder what the future holds for Liella! & Tomakanote. The two groups bump into each other one day during training. They have a little scuffle, then Natsumi & Tomari run off somewhere. The girls chase them & they somehow end up in Ushiku.

1st term is over and summer vacation is about to begin at Yuigaoka. The 1st gen students are one step closer to graduation so Keke and Kanon talk about their futures, but Keke is unsure of hers. During break, the girls head to Shanghai.
