When the members tackle an "art club", Aoi's biases come to the fore, but Koharu is delighted when the others create a richly detailed manga outline. Later in the gym, their artistic sense is given full rein!

Yua delivers the distressing news that the animation studio still hasn't caught up, so they'll either have to remain stock-still again or find a new way to get through the episode with limited animation. At the club, the topic is a judo club, followed by a judo-related activity in the gym that embarrasses Koharu to the max!

After Koharun and Aoi choose the anime pattern in which time doesn't actually pass, they're rejoined by Yua and Hiina, and the Tesaguri Club is back in session. The members discuss whether they get to keep their memories from the first season. In the clubroom, they think of a new high school basketball team, but Yua announces that since this Encore season was suddenly decided on, the animators didn't have enough time to work on these early episodes, so advises the rest of the members to be still as much as possible. That doesn't stop Aoi from performing her trademark unconventional moves, though...

The final episode of Encore flashes back to when Mio first recruited a then-anti-social Aoi and skips around through her first year with the club. In the end, though, it's the start of another new school year with Aoi and Koharu. What "pattern" will they choose the next time around?

The club members quiz a youngish teacher about whether she fits the anime stereotype of a youngish female teacher. Later, when Mobuko and her many sisters sit in on the Tesagure meeting, they tackle two traditional Japanese clubs, kendo and rakugo.

Yua riddles her fellow Tesaguri Club members, which leads into a conversation about the Sphinx's famous riddle. Later, they brainstorm a "new athletic festival", and finally attempt to combine riddles and an athletic festival.

April. Exactly one year ago, Suzuki Yua (Yua-senpai), Sato Hina (Hiina), and Takahashi Aoi invited Tanaka Koharu (Koharun) to join their "Tesaguri Club". Now, Koharun looks back on the year that was. Over the last 12 months, the four of them thought about many different clubs and postulated an abundance of new wrinkles. Koharun became a member because she wanted to have a high school life that was out of the ordinary and somewhere along the line, her wish came true. But then third-year students Yua and Hiina graduated. While Aoi and Koharun set up the same table in the same place as the previous year so they can invite new students to join, they reminisce about the last 12 months. What kind of new students will join the club this year?

The transfer student, Nagisa Kiryu, is finally introduced to the other students. They can't help but feel that he is hiding something…
