The synopsis and advance cuts of the second episode, which will start airing sequentially on July 15, have now been released.
The first volume of Blu-ray & DVD will be released on September 26. Also, an early pre-order campaign has started, where you can get a color paper with a stand signed by the cast and illustrated by the original author, Rin Ryokawa, on a first-come, first-served basis (available only at participating stores).

Episode 2: "Busywork," "Friendship Games," "Witch Trials," and "Non-Title Match."

The Asso-kenkyu-ko, or Playmates' Study Group, which was not recognized as a club because it has only three members, applies to the student council to at least be a friendship group, but is rejected by the student council president because its activities are unclear. However, as soon as she hears from Kazumi that the club will also receive 10,000 yen in club fees, Hanako storms into the student council office to appeal directly to the student council. While Hanako and the others desperately appeal for details of their activities, the student council president proposes a certain game to them.
