Whilst clearing out the closet, the Amusement Club finds a time machine which accidentally sends Akari back to the day before she started middle school. Stuck in the past until she can figure out how to fix the time machine, Akari decides to try and rectify the mistakes her past self made so she'll have a bigger presence. She ends up being spotted by Akane, who remains supportive of her. After failing her attempts to rectify her embarrassing middle school debut, Akari goes to Nana to ask for help in fixing the time machine. As Akari spends the next week hiding out in Akane's room, Akane warns her that changing her past might replace her old memories. As Nana manages to fix the time machine, Akari spots one more opportunity to save the presence by delaying Ayano from interrupting her, but stops when she thinks about losing her old memories. As Akari returns to the present, she finds everyone has been worried about her since she had disappeared for a week.

As the first years try to study for their exams, Sakurako has a hard time keeping focused. Later, Chinatsu ends up inadvertently hiding from the others and can't find a good opportunity to reemerge. During a sleepover at Akari's house, Chinatsu has trouble sleeping after watching a scary movie. Later, each of the first years end up encountering one of their seniors, resulting in some curious conversations.

Sakurako gets pushed around a bit by her sisters Nadeshiko and Hanako whilst Himawari's little sister Kaede is a bit too inquisitive. Meanwhile, Chizuru decides to clean up Chitose's room whilst she is out, but has to take extreme measures to stop picturing her and Ayano together and drooling all over the place. Later, Himawari worries that she's gained weight and comes to Sakurako for some exercise advice. Elsewhere, Chinatsu talks with her older sister, Tomoko, who has a crush on Akari's older sister, Akane, who, at that moment, is doing perverted things with Akari's belongings whilst she is away.

As Kyōko realizes she needs to buy new batteries for her air conditioner, she gets distracted and ends up visiting everyone's homes, only to end up buying the wrong batteries after all. As she decides to have everyone go to the pool instead, Akari misses her train and tries to pass the time til the next one comes. Later, Kyōko visits Yui while she has a cold while Sakurako and Himawari follow Akari around.

Akari, Chinatsu, Sakurako and Himawari try to think of ways to pass time in class. Later, Himawari agrees to help teach Chinatsu to knit a scarf, which leaves Sakurako feeling lonely without her. As Valentine's Day comes and the girls give each other chocolates, Himawari gives Sakurako some Valentine gifts.

As the girls travel to a hot spring inn, Akari dreams of being the popular and well admired main protagonist that she always desired to be. Once at the inn, the girls play some ping pong and relax in the baths before watching a Mirakurun movie.

Akari, Kyoko and Yui reminisce their childhood days when they were being bullied by a certain pink-haired girl. Later, a bump on the head causes Kyoko to become uncharacteristically polite. The others soon begin to miss the old Kyoko, especially when Kyoko plans to disband the Amusement Club, so they decide to hit her on the head again to return her to normal.

The girls try to find way to distract themselves from the Summer heat. While visiting the student council room for some cooling comfort, they meet the silent student council president, Rise Matsumoto, who they mistake for a spirit. Meanwhile, the science teacher, Nana Nishigaki, decides to do her experiments in the student council room.

With Christmas coming up, Kyōko holds a lottery to arrange the girls into pretend couples for mock dates. Kyōko and Chinatsu go to the movies and the arcade, Akari and Chitose visit some cafés, Himawari and Sakurako go to a restaurant while Ayano and Yui just sit around talking about their friends. Later, the girl's spend New Year's at home where they check their greetings cards from each other.

Ayano unwittingly gets dragged along by Kyōko, Yui and Chitose to a doujinshi convention in Tokyo to help Kyōko sell her dojin. Himawari and Sakurako work on their summer homework, where Sakurako talks about why she joined the student council. Meanwhile, Akari and Chinatsu have a confusing conversation about the latter's feelings towards Yui, which leads to Chinatsu practicing "kissing" on Akari against Akari's will just as Yui and Kyōko walk in.

With Yui now living alone in her own apartment, she invites the others over for lunch. After Akari and Chitose leaves, Kyōko decides to spend the night only to remember she hasn't finished her homework.

As Akari Akaza enters middle school, she decides to join the Amusement Club alongside her friends, Kyōko Toshinō and Yui Funami. They are later joined by Akari's classmate, Chinatsu Yoshikawa, who originally intended to join the now-defunct tea ceremony club, but is convinced to join the Amusement Club. Noticing Akari's lack of presence, the girls try and come up with ways of improving her personality.
