The members of the Kaminoyama Animation Club, Aoi, Ema, Shizuka, Misa and Midori swore upon donuts that one day, they would all work in the anime industry. Two and a half years later, they are heading toward those dreams and all the hardships that come with them. Aoi is now working as a production assistant at an animation studio and doing her best. After getting key frames from one of the animation supervisors, she returns to the office but there's no one around.

Aoi is panicking a little at the fact that episode four is a little behind. She manages to enlist the help of Endou, the animation supervisor for episode three, and is able to stabilize things a bit. However, as soon as one hardship leads to another. While at the episode four dubbing, Aoi is present when the director and animation director are discussing retakes. The director is moved by one of the voice actor's performances, and starts talking about the scene not being right.

On top of being in charge of episode 4, Aoi is now also tasked with episode 9. Despite being a newbie and full of doubt, she manages to complete every task asked of her. However, when Honda asks her to report on her progress, she panics. Even though Yano is able to calm her down a little, Aoi is faced with key frames not being delivered and an animator not finishing his cut in time.

A girl is suggestively moaning on the train. Shizuka is a newbie voice actor who was practicing her lines on the train on the way to her first audition. Once she gets to the after recording session, she sees that a very popular voice actress is auditioning for the same role, and this causes her to panic.

The incident happened at Musashino Animation. Tarou tells Aoi about why Endou is so mad. The reason was an explosion scene that was supposed to be hand drawn was now going to be done in 3D. Tarou was supposed to tell Endou about the change, but the way he tells him ends up setting off a whole new problem.

Director Kinoshita's storyboards seem to never finish, and Musashino Animation is in a panic. Aoi thinks about how many days they have until the delivery of goods and gets frazzled. Around the same time, Misa was troubled, as well.

Aoi goes to deliver a tribal instrument to the sound studio. When she arrives, she is pulled aside and is forced to wear high heels. She then finds out it's to record sound effects, so she decides to help out. However, apparently just walking normally isn't all that the job asks for. Next, she is asked to howl...

With the time limit drawing nearer, Aoi tries to distribute the remaining key frames of the last episode to animators. However, she is having a hard time finding someone to take the more difficult cuts. She then tries to go to other companies to see if they'll take the frames. One of them happens to be a company she interviewed at and didn't get the job.

In a hurry, Aoi arrives at Kanno's house. However, she gets there without knowing very much about Kanno and realizes that it was rather rude for her to ask him to do some key frames for her. As she apologizes, Kanno gives her some advice.

Musashino animation gets put in charge of the popular series, "Third Aerial Girls Squad." This opportunity for Musani is actually an opportunity for Aoi, as well. Nabe-P explains her new role to her, and she can't help but feel pressure.

A meeting about "Third Aerial Girls Squad" was happening at Musashino Animation that day. Various people were trying to push their own talent based on everything other than talent.

After finishing the party to welcome the new employees, Musashino Animation dives into production for "Third Aerial Girls Squad." Aoi does her best as the new production desk, while the new employees, Satou and Andou also do their best at their new jobs.

Iguchi is shocked to learn that the author hasn't accepted her character designs. They try to ask what specifically is wrong, but can't seem to get a straight answer.

The news of "Third Aerial Girls Squad" becoming an anime is spreading more and more. Meanwhile, a new dilemma hits Musani: They must make a promotional video. Despite things already not going very smoothly, the video has to be done, so Satou and Andou go on the move.

The after recording for "Third Aerial Girls Squad" has started. However, Suzuki, who plays the protagonist, is so nervous that she can't act naturally, and has to stay later. However, with the help of the sound producer, she is able to overcome it

Aoi starts feeling panicked about all of the problems, and that's when Yano comes back to work. Yano first goes to Studio Titanic and takes over things there.

Finally, the time has come to deliver the final episode of "Third Aerial Girls Squad." Will Aoi and the others be able to get them delivered to all of the stations in time for broadcast?
