Honoka feels sad about announcing the closure of Otonokizaka, and heads to UTX to watch A-RISE's performance, making Honoka feel determined to save her school.

Honoka manages to get permission to use the auditorium for a concert in a month's time, although Umi has doubts that they'll be ready in time. Unable to think of a name for their group, Honoka holds a contest for the name instead before realizing they do not actually have a song to practice.

Umi is nervous about performing in front of others so Honoka and Kotori try to build up her confidence by getting her to hand out fliers advertising their upcoming concert.

μ's grows to nine members with the addition of Eli and Nozomi. The group's School Idol ranking is rising to 50th, but they mus reach 20th place to participate in Love Live! They must take drastic measures to reach their goal.

Honoka suggests the group stays overnight at Maki's summer home to practice. When the girls arrive they ignore their training and go play on the beach, instead.

It is a new semester and the group is ranked 19th, which is high enough to be considered for Love Live! µ's next event is at the school festival, but they are forced to perform on the roof.
