With the lead singer of Gldemo now obliterated, a replacement must be found. The manic, high-strung Yui tries desperately to assume the role. Hinata, meanwhile, seeks to avenge a mistake made long ago on the baseball field by assembling the strongest team possible to defeat the other teams in the school. Otonashi worries the game could strike Hinata out in more ways than one.

With Otonashi's and Angel’s newly formed alliance, dark and powerful clones of Angel have begun attacking the Battlefront with greater aggression. They must return to the trap-rigged Guild once more and risk heartbreaking, violent losses.

When she awakens from her dangerous solo mission, Yuri finds her surviving friends in Battlefront seem to have found peace. In an impromptu “graduation” ceremony, they all take steps to move on to the next level of existence. But this transition seems most difficult for Otonashi, as it means losing his newly formed bond with Angel.

Set between episodes four and five, Yuri comes up with 'Operation High Tension Syndrome', encouraging the other members to behave as wildly as possible, so they would appear to be enjoying school without disappearing. Yuri hopes this will make Angel wonder what's happening and lead them straight to God.

Set between episodes two and three, during Golden Week, Yuri arranges for the SSS to go on a deadly picnic, which involves most of the members trying to kill each other with various traps and gadgets.
