The Student Council tasks the new tankery members with finding the tanks that were used the last time the school had tankery. Miho, Saori and Hana are joined in their search by a tank fanatic named Yukari Akiyama, and together they manage to find a Panzer 38(t). Several other tanks are eventually found and distributed among the tankery members, with Miho's group assigned a Panzer IV. The newly-formed teams are then tasked with cleaning up their tanks in preparation for the arrival of the tankery instructor the following day. Afterwards, Yukari takes Miho, Saori and Hana to a military store, and the girls bond over dinner at Miho's place. The next morning, Miho encounters a gloomy girl named Mako Reizei and helps her on her way to school. The tankery instructor, Ami Chōno, arrives and suggests they start out with a full-on mock battle, with each team having to learn how to operate their tank by themselves. Soon after the match begins, Miho's team finds themselves the target of two other teams. As they speed across the battlefield trying to escape, they find Mako right in their path.
