College, Chapter 2

College, Chapter 2 is a chapter of the fifth volume of the K-ON! Manga by Kakifly.

Summary
At the university Light Music Club, it's Onna Gumi's scheduled practice session, and the girls of Ho-kago Tea Time are chilling out in the club room to watch. Today, Tsumugi has brought along some new sweets she bought from the convenience store to share with everyone, which surprises Ayame, who always assumed that Mugi was the kind of high-class princess type, and not as down to earth as she actually is.

All of a sudden, Yui asks Akira why she decided to go to university if her band wanted to become professional musicians. Akira's wisdom is that it takes a lot more than just sheer determination to go pro, so having a degree is a good plan to fall back on. She had also heard about a mythical band at the university's Light Music Club that was so apparently so good that they could easily have turned pro. No one else however, not even the the president, Kana, knows about such a band. Strangely though, despite being the president, Yoshi's band, along with Chiyo is currently inactive, since they're stuck between job hunting and writing their theses.

When most of the girls leave the club room for the day, Mio doubles back since she forgot her lyrics notebook. She opens the door to the club room to find Yoshii posing in her school uniform. Yoshii and Chiyo's band also used to wear their school uniform as their performance costume. They had to retire the look since they were growing out of it, but they still take them out at night when no one's around. They let Mio watch them practice, but only just this once. She's blown away - they must be the professional band Akira was thinking about. At the end of the day, they weren't too concerned about the fame or reputation, they were just happy to play together in a band. Mio agrees that she won't tell anyone about what she saw, or Yoshii will tell everyone about Mio's lyrics.
