"μ's" is chosen as the group's name, and Honoka and her friends complete their debut song. Their recognition grows at school, and when their hard work is rewarded by a slight increase in their idol ranking, the three are overjoyed. The day of the concert arrives. Honoka and her friends get ready for the event with the help of their classmates. Thinking back on their days of practice, Honoka and her friends renew their resolve. The first concert of μ's begins, but...

Honoka and her friends decide to form a school idol group to increase the number of their school's prospective students. Despite meeting resistance from student council president Ayase Eli, the girls succeed in obtaining permission to use the auditorium for their first concert. They decided to accept submissions for group names, and Kotori takes over designing their outfits while Umi writes lyrics. Then their training begins. Meanwhile, Honoka asks skilled singer and pianist first year Nishikino Maki to compose for the group but is rejected. Furthermore, when Eli points out their plan could have the opposite effect, Honoka becomes dispirited...

Honoka blames herself for not realizing that Kotori was suffering, and quits being a School Idol. Because of that, μ’s goes on hiatus and Honoka, who has no goal anymore, doesn't even see Umi anymore. Despite all that happening, Honoka sees that Nico is continuing her training as a School Idol and after she gets an unexpected confession from Eli, Honoka makes a decision. The next morning, Umi goes to the auditorium after being summoned there by Honoka, and Honoka tells her how she really feels. Upon hearing that, Umi...

After Honoka collapses, μ's cancels its school festival concert. A few days later as she is recovering, Honoka learns from Eli that μ's has revoked its entry into the Love Live. Honoka returns to school, but with her goal of working toward the Love Live lost, she is out of sorts. Meanwhile, due to the girls' actions the number of prospective students for Otonokizaka High skyrockets, and the school decides to admit new students next year. The Idol Study Club hosts a party to celebrate the continued existence of the school, but during the party, Umi makes a shocking revelation...!

With summer vacation over and the new semester beginning, the group's ranking rises to 19th, high enough to be considered for the Love Live, with two weeks remaining. Knowing School Idols across the country are preparing for their last spurt, the members of μ's brace themselves. Their next event is a concert at the school festival, but when they lose the lottery, the girls are forced to perform on the roof. Despite the setback, Honoka suddenly becomes excited and suggests a μ's compilation concert. Meanwhile, Umi notices Kotori is acting strangely...

With less than a month left before the participants of the Love Live are chosen, Honoka suggests the girls borrow Maki's family's summer home for an overnight trip. Meanwhile, believing senior and junior relationships to be an obstacle, Eli suggests forbidding the use of the word "Senpai" within μ's. The first and second years struggle with conversations they are unaccustomed to. The girls arrive at the summer home by the sea and ignore their training in favor of playing on the beach. However, Maki stands apart from the group, reading by herself. When Nozomi notices this...!

Taking Ringo’s advice, Ikki and his teammates go check out a Parts War match between some of the best in the game. To their surprise, one of the teams is made up of only one member - Agito.

Ikki, Kazu, and Onigiri decide the best way to pass Orihara’s test is to steal the answers. As the caper unfolds, the guys gain a little insight into Tom-tom’s past.

Ikki spends his winnings on improving his Air Trecks and heads out with Ringo to put them to the test. Ikki and Kazu’s hopes of building a team are tested, too: will Onigiri’s girlfriend get in the way?

The Skull Saders are hungry for revenge after being defeated. They issue a challenge to Sleeping Forest - but they’ll be facing Ikki in a Dash.

There’s a lot riding on the outcome of the race between Ikki and Bucca. As the match rushes to a conclusion, Ringo and Spitfire watch to see if Ikki’s got what it takes.

Ikki decides to defend Kazu and Onigiri and that means going up against the leader of the Night Kings - the massive Bucca.

Ikki’s banged his Air Trecks up pretty bad, but replacement parts don’t come cheap. He’s got an idea how to make some money, but there’s another way to get what he needs: Parts War.

Ikki’s moment to own the skies arrives - as hundreds watch, he must beat Yoshitsune and break the Devil’s Thirty Thirty record. Does he have what it takes?

With his friends used as bait, Ikki is lured to Trident’s base. The gang gets what they wanted all along when Ikki issues a challenge - and the gang’s leader accepts.

Ikki finds his reputation precedes him in Kyoto: the top teams in the city are looking for piece of the action, and they’re not afraid to let Ikki know that there’s going to be trouble.

It’s time for the school trip to Kyoto, but there’s a problem - Akito can’t afford it. Ikki’s team will leave no man behind, so they set out to get some money from Kaito.

Kogarasumaru’s rep is on the rise after defeating Behemoth. It hasn’t been easy, but future victories might come easier if Ikki accepts Simca’s offer to join forces.

As the match rushes to an end, Ikki and Agito have to make their move quick and make it count - and then they better get out of there: not only is the Behemoth gang angry, but the cops are out in force!

Simca gives Ikki a token of her gratitude after he helps her out of a tough spot, but the gift leads to more trouble: the leader of the Rez-Boa Dogs wants it and challenges Ikki to a race to take it!
