It's a new year, which means that the Light Music Club's senior members are now third-years, with Azusa Nakano the lone second-year. Azusa will be the only member remaining once the seniors graduate, so they plan to recruit new members. Despite attempting several means of enticing underclassmen—handing out leaflets, pulling people into the clubroom, and singing at the welcoming ceremony—no one has expressed an interest in joining. Azusa overhears Yui Hirasawa say, on her way to the clubroom, that the club is great with only five people and that they can do a lot of interesting things together. She reconsiders and determines that they do not need to recruit any more members for the time being.
