K-On!

Yui submits to the music club, only to realize they're looking for someone to play a guitar-which she has no idea how to play.

To make enough money to buy their instruments, the girls take part-time jobs ... as traffic survey counters?!!

It's already time for their midterm exams, and the girls are studying hard ... except Yui, who practices chords instead of studying...

Mio is inspired to get the gang together to practice over the summer break for the upcoming school festival ... at Tsumugi's coast-side villa!

Still unofficial, and still without an adviser, the girls blackmail the music teacher Sawako Yamanaka to be their adviser.

It's the day of the school festival, and an anxious Mio is super nervous about singing center stage, so Ritsu holds a mock concert to calm her nerves.

Ritsu holds a Christmas party for the club, but the question is ... where? Since Yui's parents are on vacation, it's the obvious choice!

The class arrangements are announced, Sawako gets the crazy idea of dressing them up as animals, and the girls prepare for another live performance.

Azusa officially joins the club, but is shocked to find everyone drinking tea and eating cake instead of practicing...

The gang arrive for training camp at an even larger villa than last year ... but will they get any actual training done?

Since the girls are unable to decide on a name for the band, Sawako makes an executive decision and assigns a name that perfectly fits the band.

After the band tries to make do with Azusa as lead guitarist, "Yui" shows up, apparently no longer sick. However, her playing is suspiciously perfect.

As winter weather takes hold, Yui invites everyone to have nabe, but the girls are all so busy!

Ritsu's old school friend invites the band to perform live on New Year's Eve. But when nerves set in, they get encouragement from a surprising source.
