The original story of K-ON! in one complete omnibus! Lead guitarist Yui Hirasawa has never played an instrument. Bassist Mio Akiyama hates attention. Drummer Ritsu Tainaka would rather goof around than practice. And pianist Tsumugi Kotobuki seems more interested in sharing snacks. Together, these four girls are (technically) the Pop Music Club! Sure, they’re in over their heads trying to form their own band, but this motley crew won’t let anything stop them from having a good time. Eating cake and rocking out: That’s what Afterschool Tea Time is all about!

“Let’s start a band!” Yukari is all fired up about playing the drums after hearing a certain teatime-loving band play at the Sakuragaoka High School Festival! She makes big plans with her best friend, Kaede, only to run into a wall: Her school doesn’t have a Pop Music Club! But after the duo use their momentum to bring in a pair of quirky girls (a basketball player and a pop music “researcher”), nothing stands in their way! Except, that is, the fact that none of them own their instruments—or even know how to play them…

The Pop Music Society keeps growing! As a new school year begins, the society’s performance catches the attention of a couple students. Will they be the latest recruits?
