BanG Dream!

The girls of Poppin'Party have come a long way, but the competition coming up is the biggest yet - the BanG Dream! Girls Band challenge at the legendary Budokan! Slots to compete are limited and the usual competitors will be vying for the chance, but the band to beat is the new RAISE A SUILEN, whose founder, Chiyu, has sworn to destroy both Roselia and Poppin'Party! Indeed, Chiyu's main goal is to make Roselia's lead Yukina pay for denying Chiyu a spot as a producer, and the musical prodigy has the connections and resources to push the competition up to the next level! Can Poppin'Party keep up with the increased tempo and meet challenges like producing their own music video? They'll have to if they want to make it to the big show!

   Three months after Poppin’Party's self-sponsored live show, the local live house owners, including CiRCLE's Marina Tsukishima, organize the BanG Dream! Girls Band Challenge, a tournament with the final taking place at the Nippon Budokan. Poppin'Party and Afterglow express their interest in participating, and although Kasumi invites Rokka to join them, she declines as she is still searching for a band. Meanwhile, CHU2 struggles to find a new guitarist for RAISE A SUILEN until she watches Rokka's performance at the cultural festival. CHU2 invites Poppin'Party, Roselia, and Rokka to RAS' latest concert, where she proclaims the band's entry into the Girls Band Challenge and openly offers Rokka an audition, much to her dismay.
