Running and Inviting
On a school day, where a class gives flowers to their teacher, Ms. Takahashi, who is heading on maternity leave, a boy named Atsuhiro Maeda transfers into the class and is guided around the school by badminton player Taichi Tanaka. Meanwhile, a girl named Konatsu Miyamoto quits the choir club after becoming tired of not being able to sing and aspires to create a new choir club, of which she'll need five members. After managing to convince her best friend, Sawa Okita, to join and forcing her brother to apply as well, Konatsu tries to convince her other friend Wakana Sakai to join, but she doesn't want to sing for personal reasons. As Konatsu goes into town to practise her singing, her voice brings Wakana, Sawa, Taichi and Atsuhiro together to the same point.

Gathering and Struggling
Sawa brings Wakana and Konatsu to her house, showing Wakana what happened to Konatsu during last year's recital and getting her sign up for their new club in name. Putting their heads together, they manage to gather enough members to present to the principal, who approves it when he sees Wakana is involved and becomes its advisor. Afterwards, Konatsu gets Wakana to help her decide what kind of song they should practise, eventually settling on a song she used to hear her mother sing to her. However, the vice-principal is somewhat objective of the song for some reason. When the principal goes missing when the club needs to go to a joint rehearsel, Konatsu sends Wakana ahead of her whilst she waits for the principal. With the principal out due to a bicycle accident, Konatsu and Wakana get Ms. Takahashi to accompany them and arrive at the theatre, but the rest of the club is stuck in traffic. Not wanting to be deterred, Konatsu and Sawa go out on their own, with Wakana backing them up on piano, and manage to pull through. Afterwards, the vice-principal is put in charge of advising the club whilst the principal recovers.

Swinging and Meeting
As Wakana is approached by a strange foreigner on her way to school, Konatsu once again finds herself short on members as many of them suddenly quit, with the vice-principal threatening to dissolve the choir club, along with Taichi's badminton club, unless they can find sufficient members. Taichi manages to recruit Wien and takes him to his apartment, where he meets his sister. The next day, Taichi challenges Konatsu to a 2 vs 3 badminton match in order to obtain each other's members for their club, which inevitably results in the choir club's victory. As a compromise, Konatsu decides to make the club a joint choir and badminton club. As they once again go to the principal for his approval, he mentions a previous choir club which Wakana's mother was in. Although the vice-principal stands against the club, Taichi and Wakana help stand against her and the principal approves it. Upon hearing of a World Music Festival being held in the village, Konatsu decides to enter the choir club. Meanwhile, Wakana is once again approached by the strange foreigner.

Getting Angry and Dancing
As Konatsu meets the Condor Queens, which was the band that got her into music, Wien spots Wakana being chased after by the foreigner, who turns out to be the third member of Condor Queens and an acquaintance of Wakana's late mother, Mahiru. Meanwhile, Sawa starts to become annoyed with Konatsu as she appears to want to spend more time with the Condor Queens than practise for the choir club, threatening to quit if she doesn't take things seriously. Wanting to make amends, Konatsu searches for a stage to perform on, which is thankfully registered by Wakana, and manages to make up with Sawa. On the day of the music festival whilst the others perform on their modest stage, the Condor Queens give Wakana a letter Mahiru gave them when she was born.

The next day, Wakana helps Taichi and Atsuhiro with their vocal training before visiting Tomoko and her new baby. Later that day, Wakana learns from her father why Mahiru kept her illness a secret from her; because she didn't want the song they wrote together to be a sad one. As Wakana laments how she allegedly threw away her mother's feelings, her father gives Wakana some sheet music Mahiru wrote before she died so that she can finish it herself, admitting he never sold the piano.
