Yui tells them that she did not know how to play the guitar and was going to leave but the club was determined to make her stay as if they did not have at least four members, the club will be suspended.

Every day just comprises of drinking tea and eating cake after school with unserious practices but amazingly, during live performaces, the club always manages to pull off awesome performaces. Azusa realises that this could only happen due to their bond and the amount of fun they had together.
In the second season, the first four members of the club enters their final year of their high school life.

Azusa was afraid to be alone until her friends, one of them being Yui's younger sister, Hirasawa Ui, transfers to the same club as Azusa.
