星宫莓是一个聪明的年轻女孩，她总是帮助她的母亲在便当屋工作，但因为她弟弟的原因，莓第一次见到了偶像神崎美月。雾矢葵是莓的朋友,她设法给他们一些美月的音乐会门票。他们三个去美月的音乐会,这给莓留下了深刻印象。第二天,葵告诉莓,自己要参加星光学校的考试，并且让莓与自己一同前往。

莓和葵开始了他们的第一天生活,他们见到了星光学院的校长——曾经假面舞会的公主大人。校长给了二人一个Aikatsu电话用于存储他们的卡片。他们很快就会被介绍给班主任老师强尼,加入他们班。女孩们被告知一个特殊的试镜,通过试镜便可成为美月的临时经理,问题是,只有一个位置。葵努力的向莓如何解释她获得对偶像的爱。在试镜,莓突然摔倒而失去资格。就在莓哀叹她失败的那天晚上,她遇到美月,美月警告她,葵并不总是能够在她的身边。

葵为了能成为美月的经纪人而不停努力着，终于到达了工作当天，葵显得非常紧张，从而使莓非常担心。莓最终决定变装后跟随他们，在扫地小哥的帮助下她成功混上了专车，但是在下车时被发现，但是美月却同意莓留下。随后在表演中，两人再次钦佩美月的高超实力。在当天晚上，就在两人觉得非常累的时候，却看到舞蹈室中，美月一个人在训练。

葵第一次收到了来自粉丝的来信，让草莓非常羡慕。而同时莓为了参加章鱼烧的活动而进行特训，在进行外出跑步训练时却意外扭伤了腿，此时正巧路过的织田帮助了他，在随后的交流中织田表示自己是莓的粉丝，曾经在自己失落的时候看见莓的视频而打起精神。此后莓与葵一同训练并最终取得优胜，而织田也成功通过长跑比赛，两人约定互相努力。

莓与葵在上学过程中意外看见了紫吹兰，因为年幼出名且不与外人搭话而被称为冰山女王。随后的走秀活动中，以抽签决定，莓意外与兰搭档。为了不拖兰的后腿，莓非常努力的训练着，而兰也看在眼里。最终走秀大获成功，兰告知莓自己曾经的朋友因为追不上自己的脚步而离开，从此不再接近别人。活动结束后，兰与莓和葵成为了朋友。

莓与兰开展了模特工作，而在工作中，莓发现作为一个明星签名也非常重要，于是她和葵拜托兰做老师设计签名。莓设计了一个非常复杂的签名后，为了能提高速度，而进行了各种特训。随后在莓回家的时候，由于弟弟的原因而意外的进行了签名会，然而莓却只顾着签名而没有与粉丝交流而被兰训斥，随后莓经过努力，改掉了这个恶习。

莓与葵约定参加模特试镜，然而葵却因为ponpon-crepe少女的试镜而导致时间冲突，两人决定分开努力。然而葵却因为与莓分开而意外的紧张，在得到了扫地小哥的稀有卡之后，葵参加了面试，然而因为莓不在身边而坐立不安，此时莓通过闪闪小子给葵助威，之后甚至直接来到了现场鼓励葵。最终葵顺利的成为了ponpon-crepe少女。

莓去地下仓库办事，却意外的迷路，然而她却在地下发现了一个非常厉害的偶像，原来那是同班同学三轮光，光与兰互视为对手，此时正巧遇到学院长举办的海选活动，两人决定在舞台上互相比试。最终两人分数相同以平手结束，兰决定与莓和葵三人进行特别试镜，然而莓等人却犯了难，因为需要参加特别试镜，需要奖励卡片……

为了能参加特殊试镜，兰协助莓和葵进行了魔鬼训练。随后三人拜托了学院长联系顶级设计师，希望能从他们那获得奖励卡片，然而只有莓所穿服侍的设计师迟迟没有出现。而就在试镜当天，设计师却突然联系，莓没有犹豫立刻前往，在爬山了高山后见到了设计师，设计师因为莓的精神而感动，将奖励服饰卡片交付于她。随后三人的特别试镜大获成功，深夜，美月出现并表扬了莓。

莓等三人因为迟到而在路上飞奔时，却意外遇见了天然萌少女乙女，众人被乙女的表现送萌倒。之后出现的特殊试镜事关圣诞节活动，莓决定参加，然而对手却是那个非常可爱的乙女，莓进行了特殊训练，但是均未起效，但是在一个夜晚她得到了扫地小哥的指导，从而明白了自己想要做什么。之后的试镜莓击败了乙女，成功获得了试镜机会。而乙女则决定参加复活赛。

就在莓众人商量着圣诞特殊试镜的事情时，突然发现乙女不见了，而此时乙女为了救猫咪而爬上大树，即将掉下来，就在千钧一发的时候，扫地小哥出现并成功救下乙女。然而从那一天起乙女就心不在焉了。为了帮助乙女，莓和葵决定跟踪扫地小哥，而莓却意外发现扫地小哥在办乐队，莓答应不将此时说出去。而当天晚上众人聊天才发现乙女喜欢的不是扫地小哥而是猫咪首饰。在之后的复活赛中，乙女大获成功，四人决定参加圣诞的特殊试镜。

圣诞将至，众人准备着圣诞晚会，莓充分发挥自己便当屋的实力，帮助每一个需要帮助的人，而此时葵则发现了可疑的偷拍者。班上的中山因为想到一过去的圣诞节而倍感寂寞，于是莓决定去深山中砍树做一颗超大的圣诞树来鼓励她，然而却没有运输办法，就在众人犯难的时候，之前的偷拍者——电台组长出现并帮助众人，随后将众人努力的场景作为了纪录片。众人努力砍回的圣诞树终于让中山打起了精神，她的父母也出现在了现场。而莓等人的特殊活动也大获成功，为所有观众献上了一个完美的圣诞夜晚。

学院的春假，莓也回到了便当屋进行工作，然而因为放假的过度放松，莓开始无节制的进食，到了开学时已经变成了一个胖胖的“团子莓”了。特殊试镜阳光女孩开始，然而莓却怎么也打不起精神，然而葵却帮莓报了名。之后的特训，莓也完全没有办法打起精神，依旧大量进食。兰终于生气了，她指出莓已经失去了原本的精神，而莓也为此深深的感到惭愧，觉得对不起美月，于是她下定决心努力训练，终于恢复了以往的体型。之后的试镜莓大获成功，与葵等人获得了电视试镜的机会。

莓等四人获得了电影坏刑事的试镜机会，然而与她们竞争的是被称为演绎天才，有着“千面女郎”的紫苑。葵决定参选头脑型刑警，而莓则决定参选格斗系刑警，然而此后两人却惊讶的发现紫苑为了出演把头发剪短了。随后的试镜，莓则用自己充满风格的摔跤取得了欢笑，而紫苑则凭借自己出色的演技让导演都眼前一亮。最终葵和紫苑获得成功，而莓也将作为客串在剧中出演了新人刑警。

莓众人决定参加特殊试镜，而此次试镜的奖励为容姿的心得。众人为此展开了训练，然而乙女却没有奖励卡，没有奖励卡就意味着难以获胜，于是乙女决定出发寻找顶级设计师，就在寻找的路上遇见了一名希望找到自己初恋时的樟树的老奶奶，乙女放下自己的事情帮助老奶奶寻找樟树，最终樟树找到了，乙女却已经迟到了，设计师表示非常生气不愿意给她奖励卡，然而就在众人心灰意冷的时候，设计师却发现乙女手中从老奶奶处获得的坠子与自己父亲的相同，在一番沟通后乙女获得了奖励卡，随后的试镜也圆满成功。

在特殊试镜结束后，神崎美月突然出现在莓面前，并要求她与自己组队，参加下一次的演出。作为新人的莓处处都非常的紧张，同时也更加深刻的理会到了美月的强大之处。为了和美月配合而展开了训练，必须做到3次特殊展示，然而莓初次试演只能完成一次，为此而感到失落。此时美月突然出现，并鼓励莓，从而使莓打起了精神，决定不辜负美月的期望。

演出当天，莓依旧显得失落，因为在之前的试演中自己依旧只能使用两次特殊展示，工作人员均表示希望她放弃只做两次即可，然而美月却严词拒绝，表示自己会撑住场面。演出开始之前葵等人出现并鼓励莓，使莓打起了精神。随后的演出中莓成功的展示了三次特殊展示，但是之后因为长时间演出而导致体力不支，出现失误，就在这时，美月释放了第四次特殊展示。之后一段时间，莓都陷入沮丧状态，但是却更加钦佩美月了。

莓四人被邀请作为恋爱中的少女的特殊演出，为了能更接近恋爱中的少女心情，众人决定制作巧克力，之后众人还交换了卡片将服侍混搭。而莓的弟弟赖智听说了之后便非常在意葵要做巧克力给谁，于是装作女生混进学校，并帮助众人制作巧克力，然而葵却没有做巧克力给他，最后只好沮丧着离开了。之后的演出大获成功，葵也看出了赖智的想法而补给他巧克力。

莓在回学校的路程遇见“吸血鬼”，然而就在要被吸血的时候“吸血鬼”却跑了。之后出现的特殊试镜摇滚庆典中，莓认识了吸血鬼后裔——百合香。百合香不论什么时候都保持吸血鬼的姿态，然而莓却突然发现百合香喜欢吃大蒜拉面。之后因为百合香的失误，发生了火灾，然而莓却不顾自己冲进去拿出了百合香的遮阳伞，以此为契机莓认识了真实的百合香。在之后的试镜中莓虽然惜败，但是非常开心的与百合香成为了好友。

就在摇滚庆典之前，百合香却意外被狗仔队拍到了自己素颜的照片以及生活爱好，陷入了危机。百合香显得非常失落，然而在莓等人的帮助下，百合香重新打起了精神，决定取得奖励卡片。随后众人前往顶级设计师所在地，却发现是一个鬼屋。众人互相帮助下度过了难关，终于见到了顶级设计师。然而顶级设计师却出题为难百合香，而百合香却毫不退缩，终于打动了他，获得了奖励卡，之后的演出也大获成功。

莓等人获得了一个特殊试镜——怪盗燕尾服的试镜机会，之后从葵处得知，这本是被称为传说中的偶像剧，由前任假面舞会出演的偶像电视剧。之后众人为了试镜而努力训练，终于来到了特殊试镜的时候，然而众人却进到了一个布满陷阱的城堡。众人费劲千辛万苦，终于夺回了卡片，然而葵和紫苑扮演的刑警却突然出现，众人决定乘坐汽艇逃走，然而汽艇却超重而下沉，关键时刻，莓和乙女跳下汽艇，而兰和百合香也表示均忘了初衷，而一同跳下。最终，莓和乙女通过了试镜，出演了怪盗燕尾服的电影。

莓等人决定偷偷的去看自己所演出的电影，恰巧遇见自己的弟弟赖智，在与赖智的对话中，莓惊奇的发现自己没有偶像应该有的气场，随后莓在不断观察其他偶像的过程中，真的体会到众人不同的气场，于是莓决定培养自己的气场，但以失败告终。而在一次电台采访中，莓却意外的散发出了自己的气场，之后莓发现了气场的关键，决定保持自己现在的样子。之后三人的演出，均散发出强烈的气场，演出圆满成功。

兰决定参加Spicy燕尾服的专属模特试镜，为此而拼命努力着。在与葵的聊天中，兰透露了自己所想要超越的人——学姊绘麻，她坚信自己只要无法超越她，就无法成为Spicy燕尾服的专属模特。理事长看见了兰的努力，将她带到了一个特殊的教师中，为她阐述了一个真实的艾玛桑，也使兰恍然大悟，知道自己真正想要的东西。之后五人在毕业典礼上为毕业生献上了完美的演出，兰也向绘麻表示自己终有一天会超越她，成为Spicy燕尾服的专属模特。

莓等三人在演出结束后获得了一段时间的休息时间，众人决定去温泉游玩。三人都准备充分，路途中也不短遇到各自的粉丝。众人在意油菜花田中吃饭和休息，但却一不小心错过了时间，赶不上班车，好在有好心的粉丝路过，帮助他们到达了车站，虽然没能完成最终目的，但是却玩的非常开心。

愚人节当天，莓的爸爸回到了日本，并与莓团聚。莓的爸爸太一是一个探险家，他在一个偏僻的部落中获得了稀有的水果，但是族长却无论如何都不肯他将水果带出，只能拿出一串作为试尝。当天莓带爸爸回见朋友们，其他人也对莓的爸爸的言论均表示非常吃惊。爸爸答应观看莓的演出，却因为族长的召唤而不得不回去。就在所有人都以为这不可能之时，爸爸却赶了回来，并向莓祝贺。而族长那里也非常成功，因为族长表示，家人才是第一的，水果也因此同意他带出。

开学后的莓等人成功升到二年级，而面临他们的第一个任务就是接待新生，莓所分配到的新人北大路樱因为家庭的原因而被哥哥反对成为偶像，为此樱自己也非常困扰，但是在莓的帮助下，樱终于解开心结，成功的在新生对抗赛中表现出出色的表演，虽然未能优胜，却也获得了哥哥的认可。

备受瞩目的新鲜女孩杯开赛了，在这个比赛中，所有人都能获得与美月较量的机会。为此莓等人也开始了疯狂的训练，但是逐渐的众人也丧失了最初的感觉，变得不开心了起来。随后莓在与家人的交流中发现了这一点，并立刻改正了过来，然而在第一次比试中，只有莓、葵和兰通过了初选。

终于到达了新鲜女孩杯的决赛，三人都显得非常紧张。在空闲时三人研究了美月的种种，越发的崇拜她了，葵表示，莓与美月的区别好比甲鱼和月亮，不在一个层次上。在决赛中，葵和兰均出现了失误，只有莓一个人与美月进行最后的决战，而美月本人也非常期待与莓对战，虽然最后莓失败了，但是也被许多人夸奖。深夜，睡不着的莓遇见了美月，无意间说出了甲鱼和月亮的事情，美月则表示莓应该是太阳，只是现在的光芒还不及月亮罢了。

莓等人被理事长要求与新生讲解偶像相关的知识，做一次临时的老师，而三人对此都非常茫然，不知应该做什么比较好。为此葵找到了自己的后辈三森茜，从她那获得了后辈们想要知道的事情的情报。然而演讲当天，兰因为后辈们的热烈反应而不知所措，莓则是上去唱了一首歌就回来了，只有葵一个人出色的完成了演讲。事后三森茜表示莓等人的演讲非常成功，而莓等人也非常开心。

话术，也就是语言的心得，莓等人为了获得这个心得而决定参加特典演出，然而之后的训练并不成功，而樱也为此非常失落。莓看出了她的心思，帮助她和乙女获得新的奖励卡片。然而最初樱所穿的服装顶级设计师并未出现，但樱也没有因此而感到失落。最终，樱获得了奖励卡，与莓众人参加了特典，并成功获得了语言的心得。

莓等人获得了一个演出的机会，而曲目则是曾经轰动一时的偶像团体假面舞会的成名曲。为了能够成功的演唱这首歌，莓等人进行了严格的训练，但是依旧没能抓住要领。莓回到家中，母亲看出了莓的心事，从而协助她，并讲述了自己过去的故事，在结束时将稀有卡星光王冠赠予莓。最终莓与葵成功的演唱了这首歌曲，演出取得了成功。

莓成功的进行着各种偶像活动，但是慢慢地日程也逐渐开始紧凑起来。而与此同时ANGELY SUGAR找到了莓，希望她能够为自己的产品而做宣传广告，在过程中莓显得非常不安，而此时明日香却突然出现，并告诉莓自己的故事以及ANGELY SUGAR的由来，原来ANGELY SUGAR是为了明日香女士的孩子设计的，明日香表示，虽然意义不同了，但是大家都是自己的孩子。为此莓打起了精神，顺利的完成了之后的拍摄和演出。

学院举行了与美月组成队伍的活动，然而这次活动只能有两人成功入选，莓等人自然也是干劲满满，然而学院中的其他人则更为夸张的进行着训练。比赛当天，以游戏的形式进行初选，尤里卡为了维持自己的形象而被淘汰。之后的比赛中，众人了解到了其他参赛选手正是美月过去的同伴，并了解其中的故事。最终，美月三个过去的同伴与莓、葵和兰通过了初选，而就在这时，突然从天而降一名红发少女打乱了节奏。

从天而降的少女名叫一之濑枫，她是一名在美国小有名气的偶像，她表示自己也要加入这次比试，并将自己在美国拍摄的闯关视频放了出来，而美月也同意了她的乱入。此后，枫与莓迅速成为好友，随后枫表示要让所有人都能够欢笑，并讲述了自己与顶级设计师的故事。之后的决赛，枫以出色的表现取得了一个名额，而兰、葵和莓则进入到了最最最终测试。

莓、葵和兰为了参加最终试镜而来到了一栋特殊的别墅，而她们的偶像活动机也被强尼收走，并表示在结束前不会归还。随后的面试，美月依次向三人提出不同的问题，用于考察她们的心里想法。最终的试镜中，兰以自己优秀的表演获得了优胜，获得了最后一个名额。兰离开时非常伤心，此时赶来的莓等人纷纷安慰她，兰随即表示之后自己也会继续努力。

加入了Tristar的兰开始与美月和枫进行偶像活动，而与此同时莓和葵也不断的关注着兰的动态，并给予她鼓励。慢慢的，兰逐渐开始思念莓和葵，也开始跟不上美月和枫的脚步，心情也开始沮丧了起来，而此时莓和葵就像是看出了兰的心思一般，给兰送来了饼干并鼓励她努力下去。

就在兰离开莓和葵时，理事长突然决定让莓与葵也组成团队，兴奋的莓等人找到了兰，希望和她一起想名字，兰也在心里祝福两人。然而此时的兰状态越发的低下，而美月则看出了其中的问题所在。就在莓和葵宣布结成团队时，兰出现在了现场，并宣布退出Tristar，加入Soleil。

在兰回归之后，三人又恢复了往常的日常生活。而在队长的选择方面，兰和葵则一致认为莓才是最佳人选，这让乔尼老师非常的担心，反而理事长则显得较为平静，他告诉乔尼莓是三人的连接点。与此同时，乙女等人则组成了队伍软软布丁，而Tristar的最后一名成员则由百合香取代，两支队伍分别上演了精彩的演出。

莓等人在握手会结束后，突然收到了理事长的任务，要求她们在不用闪闪小子的情况下，在公园的大众舞台表演，且一定要满员。莓等人为此绞尽了脑汁，最终决定亲自奔走宣传，在她们的努力下，终于来了大批的观众，但是却还差一个座位，面对期待演出的粉丝，莓等人恳求乔尼开始演出，乔尼无奈下同意了。演出大获成功，而就在演出期间，周围的观众也越来越多最终爆满，众人才理解到理事长的用意。

众人突然接收到了理事长的命令，要求Tristar、软软布丁和Soleil在暑期结成队伍star☆anis并进行巡回演唱会。莓等人则为此展开了训练，休息期间，葵和兰讲述了当初与莓相遇的故事。随后葵却突然收到报道，说是顶级设计师将自己关住不愿发布新的服饰，葵立刻赶往，并说出了自己的心里想法给他听，在听完那段话后，设计师终于出现并将衣服赠予葵。

star☆anis终于迎来了第一次演唱会，为此莓等人都非常的激动，众人在下午一同前去观摩了演出场地，并进行了排练，然而却得知了台风的情报。深夜，大雨倾盆而下，就在众人都担心演出是否会被取消时，只有莓独自期待着，她的心情感染了众人。第二天果然是晴天，但是却因为作业的大雨而导致演出地点停电，此时美月充分利用了自己的才干度过了这一难关，为观众们献上了完美的演出。

莓等人在回去的时候，意外的收到了理事长的任务，要在船上与粉丝们一同生活，并一起演出。这让众人感到十分紧张，甚至展开了对策会议，但是之后却不了了之。众人均以原本的样子去面对粉丝们，反而受到好评，之后的演出则是由粉丝和偶像共同表演，莓也感受到了前所未有的喜悦。到达学院后，美月与众人分别，此次偶像团队计划也就此结束。

之前拒绝了参加团队的紫苑决定出演一部名为“爱丽丝梦游仙境”的电影，然而她本人则显得不太自信，为了给她打气，莓等人客串了剧中的人物前去帮助她，而紫苑也逐渐在戏中找到了感觉，深刻的阐述了自己热爱喜剧的想法，她的笑容给导演留下了深刻的印象，因此顺利的通过了测试。

莓偶然间遇到了摇滚乐团成员king在校门口大吵大闹，并被要求告知凉川自己不认可他的音乐，为此莓遭到了凉川，却被凉川要求不要说出去，之后的莓从其他队友那里了解了过程，在与凉川的对话中得知了他的真意，而这段话正巧被路过的king听见，king虽然感动但还是表示不愿原谅凉川，莓劝服king去看自己的演出。最终king从莓的表演中领悟了道理，与凉川和好，四人一起举办了自己的演唱会。

众人约定一同去游泳池玩耍，而Tristar的成员则因为工作会晚到，莓等人则率先开始了玩耍。然而随后美月却因为工作而要迟到，众人便开始不断的关心起美月的事情，经纪人了解到莓等人的感情，推去了工作带着美月前去，谁知在过程中被粉丝认出，众人无奈便就地进行了演出，直到闭馆时间，美月依然没有好好地玩到。而就在这是经纪人却帮忙延后了闭馆时间，众人愉快的度过了剩下的时间。

莓等人为了追上美月的脚步而调查了美月的过去，在调查中发现美月曾经消失一年进行特训，而指导她的老师正是乔尼。莓三人恳求乔尼老师给她们进行特训，然而特训却非常艰苦，众人便越发的崇拜美月了。最终，三人完成了乔尼老师的特训，又向着职业偶像迈出了一步。

随着时间的推移，莓等人对理事长和她过去所组成的传奇偶像团队假面舞会也越来越感兴趣，于是众人决定跟踪观察理事长，却被发现，随后理事长给了众人密室的钥匙，然而她们却发现房间内完全没有另一位宫的资料。最之后的星光女王杯中，美月却意外病倒，然而此时传说中的偶像假面舞会突然出现并撑过了场面。而就在幕后休息室，宫在莓面前脱下面具，面具下的居然就是莓的妈妈，林檎。

莓对自己的母亲林檎就是宫表示非常惊讶，而与此同时，赖智则依靠自己的感觉发现了妈妈就是宫的事实。之后众人愉快的交流，林檎也为莓讲述过去自己成为偶像的经历。随后林檎与莓一同爬山回见顶级设计师，而莓则从她那里获得了新的奖励卡，林檎也表示自己会继续和公主一同演出。

众人都为了在星光女王杯中挑战美月而努力，而与此同时葵也被不良刑警电影版设为主角。比赛当天，众人互相鼓励，各自说出了想法，而前来参观的观众也是络绎不绝。最终比试结果只有莓一个人入选，与美月进行一对一的对战。

终于到了星光女王杯的决赛，赛前葵等人为莓准备了丰盛的食物，而莓也接着这个机会说出了一个惊人的秘密——自己即将离开学院前往美国学习。众人虽然舍不得莓，但是依旧表示会尊重莓的想法，大家永远是朋友。决赛异常的激烈，双方均超凡发挥，最终莓以微弱的分差败给美月，离开了学院，前往美国学习。

One year after Ichigo left for America, a new rival idol school, Dream Academy, has been formed, raising its own idols. Meanwhile, at Starlight Academy, where Otome is the current Starlight Queen, Aoi and the others meet a peculiar girl, though can't identify her amongst the listed idols.

After Ichigo rekindles with everyone, Seira decides to test if she can pull off a Constellation Appeal, with Aoi letting her take her place in the concert. Ichigo manages to pull off a Constellation Appeal, which results in the contest ending in a draw.

After failing to find some concrete details on what Ichigo got up to during her year in America, Kii sends Seira over to Ichigo's house to ask her in person.

As the idols have some new promotional photos taken, Ichigo, Aoi, and Ran, along with Seira, are asked to help promote a new camera model by letting fans take pictures of them. After running into each other while practising their candid expressions, Ichigo, Aoi, Ran, Seira, and Kii go shopping together to explore the range of expressions they can make, before stopping by Seira's café.

With an audition for the next Pon Pon Crepe image girl to replace Aoi coming up, Seira suggests Kii give it a go, but she states it wouldn't suit her since she's a producer.

The presence of a reporter known as Mister S, who is infamous for exposing idol love affairs, puts the other idols on high alert. Meanwhile, Aoi and Kii are asked to participate in a fashion show themed around 'first love'. Feeling that Mister S may be targeting Seira, Kii has her take asylum in Starlight Academy, as she feels her secret hobby of cutely talking to cats clashes with her rock idol image.

As the subject of mascot phone charms is brought up, Ichigo notices Ran seems to have her own mascot charm. Meanwhile, Ran is given a Constellation Premium Dress by Spicy Ageha's top designer and is tasked with performing a Constellation Appeal at her next fashion show.

Seira and Kii are due to do a performance together, with Kii suggesting they do their own choreography. Wanting to learn about choreography, the two seek out Johnny, who decides to give them, along with Ichigo and co, a lesson on how to compose choreography.

Aoi is approached about creating a TV drama to promote some new chocolates. After deciding to make the drama about a chocolate-eating detective, Aoi asks Ichigo and the others to audition alongside her, with Seira and Kii also brought in to audition.

After Otome, Sakura and Shion pay a visit to Seira's café, Ichigo, Seira, and Kii tail them to get a glimpse of Powa Powa Puririn's activities, which happen to include line-balancing, leaf sweeping and games of tag. It is then shown they are filmed in secret for their television show in order to capture their appeal.

Sora Kazesawa, a Dream Academy student studying in both idol and designer courses, is approached by Tiara to start her own Aikatsu brand. However, Sora feels a bit nervous about the responsibility of running a brand, as she's always been free in the way she's designed her clothes.

Dream Academy decides to hold a Christmas party with Kii as producer and Sora at the designer, while Ichigo features on a Christmas cake designed by Asuka.

As idols from both Starlight Academy and Dream Academy gather to participate in the Red and White Aikatsu Battle, Mister S is spotted, hoping to find the person responsible for Dream Academy's rise to fame somewhere among them. After interviews, Ichigo, Aoi, and Ran go to greet the event's super special guest, enka singer Sabuko Nishijima, helping to carry her giant 'Enkatsu card' that she had brought to the event.

At the start of the new year, Starlight Academy and Dream Academy are poised to compete in a Lucky Idol Race, with a custom-made Constellation Dress up for grabs for the winner. All the idols make preparation for the race while Raichi is busy preparing his Aikatsu Newspaper.

Ichigo and the others are informed of a Starlight Idol Festival occurring in March, with Ichigo as the headlining act. However, on the day Orihime announces the festival, it is also revealed that Dream Academy is holding its own Dream Academy Carnival on the same dates. Feeling that it is too much of a coincidence, Ichigo, Aoi, and Ran follow Nao, the only other person who heard about the festival in advance, and learn that he is in fact Tiara's younger brother.

After producing a successful makeup commercial for Seira, Kii is lined up to audition for the poster girl of her favorite beverage, Brain Thunder. Wanting Kii to audition, Seira tries to take her to search for Magical Toy's top designer while he is in town, but finds it hard to drag her away from producing her next commercial.

It's almost Setsubun and Starlight School is busy in preparation of the event. But when Ran decides to enter she tries to choose between being her self or offering something that will please others- even if she doesn't like it.

Dream Academy idol Maria Himesato, who is due to appear on an 'Idol Princesses' television program where she will receive a Constellation Dress from Green Grass, decides she wants daisies incorporated into the design to remind her of the mountains.

Given the chance to appear in a special episode of Idol Princesses, Maria decides to invite her friends from both Dream Academy and Starlight Academy to a house party at her mansion.

Seira, Kii, Sora, and Maria are invited to audition for a four-girl drama series. Unable to decide on which roles to audition for, they let Kii's computer choose for them, with Kii ending up as the leader character. The girls ask Ichigo, Aoi, and Ran for advice on drama auditions, learning how to utilise their skills to fit their assigned roles and make them their own.

Aoi is requested to appear in a concert promoting a Futuring Girl Constellation Dress, in which she is expected to perform a Constellation Appeal. As Aoi wonders how she can pull off a Constellation Appeal, Tiara tells her that she is much like water, though doesn't get an opportunity to explain why, leaving Aoi with more questions than answers. Noticing her unease, the other idols each do their part to give Aoi some encouragement.

The day before the Star Dream Festival & Carnival begins, Dream Academy is busy with preparations for the Dream Carnival day. Seira, who has been nervous about being the headlining act, learns from Ichigo that she plans to perform alongside her friends.

Otome explains that she was so focused on including everyone into her schedule that she forgot to include herself, refusing to make any further changes to the timetable.

With graduation approaching for the third year students, Ichigo, Aoi, and Ran are put in charge of the graduation album committee, collecting a large amount of pictures and reminiscing about the memories they possess, particularly from the year Ichigo was away.

With spring break arriving again, Ichigo, Aoi, and Ran once again attempt to go to the hot springs they missed last time, stopping by the rape blossom field again along the way when they discover a bus stop has been built next to it.

Upon beginning their lives as high school students, Ichigo, Aoi, and Ran are requested by Orihime to act as judges for an Audition Caravan scouting the country for potential new Starlight Academy idols.

Akari begins her first day at Starlight Academy, meeting up with Orihime and receiving her cards, ID, and Aikatsu Phone before moving into the dorms with her new roommate, Yuu.

Akari shows up with a shorter haircut, which the others help to straighten up. Later, Ichigo ends up encountering Mizuki, who reveals she is forming her own unit from a new agency she founded herself, before leaving some cryptic words concerning waffles. The next day, both Starlight and Dream Academy announce the revival of the Partner's Cup, a tournament for idol pairs.

With the appearance of WM proving a threat to both Starlight and Dream Academy, Ichigo and the others turn their focus onto choosing an ideal partner, with Starlight students allowed to pair up with Dream Academy students. The girls who had yet to find a partner gather up together and try some test runs with different partner variations to see what works for them.

Noticing Akari's poor grades, Orihime signs her up for Aikatsu Boot Camp, which has a reputation for having harsh training. Akari and the other trainees arrive at the boot camp on a remote island, where they are tasked with building a stage to perform on.

With the Partner's Cup approaching, Ichigo, Aoi, and Ran head to Dream Academy to practise with their partners. Wanting to learn more about WM, Ichigo and Seira visit Mizuki and Mikuru, who explain how they came to meet each other.

After being informed by Raichi and Noelle, Aoi and Kii go to visit Ichigo and Seira, who are nervous about going up against WM following their performance, with both of them expressing how they don't want to hold the other back. As each of the pairs give their performance, Ichigo and Seira observe how the partners compliment each other perfectly in unique ways. Before their performance comes up, Ichigo and Seira are told that their feelings of not wanting to hold each other back already makes them the perfect partners.

Having become close friends with Otome during the Partner's Cup, Maria becomes keen to learn more about her, wondering how she became how she is. Meanwhile, Otome hears from Makoto that he is designing a Constellation Premium Dress for Happy Rainbow, but is struggling with ideas. Afterwards, Maria comes across Otome at a kindergarten, which is revealed to be Otome's home, and helps her with preparations for a play of The Wizard of Oz.

As Mizuki and WM reach the top of Aikatsu Ranking charts, Mikuru is tasked by Mizuki to reach the top ten rankings of the individual charts, suggesting that she needs to obtain a Premium dress from Vivid Kiss' top designer, Kayoko, who is currently in America. Whilst pondering about how to accomplish this, Mikuru is tasked with growing and delivering a golden Miracle Flower, which requires watering at specific times of the day whilst also working around her busy schedule.

Ran is invited to audition for a drama based on Aladdin alongside Sora, who is also asked to design outfits for the audition. Ran, along with Ichigo and Aoi, undergoes swordsmanship training for the role, with their teacher not only teaching them about the basics, but also how to break realism for the sake on putting on a good show.

Orihime and Tiara announce the beginning of the Aikatsu8 Elections, in which fans will show their support for their favorite idols, and the eight most popular idols will form a special unit known as Aikatsu8. They declare that the Elections are not limited to idols from Starlight and DreAca, so Mizuki and Mikuru from WM are eligible to participate.

Mizuki and Mikuru announce they want to challenge Soleil in a contest.
