Synopsis
The opening depicts the main characters dancing to Motteke! Sailor fuku, joined by the secondary characters later in the song.
The first half of the show follows the daily lives of the main characters of Lucky Star, Izumi Konata, Hiiragi Kagami, Hiiragi Tsukasa, and Takara Miyuki as they attend the second year of high school. Despite the secondary characters being present in the opening of every episode, they are only introduced in the latter half of the show, which depicts the main characters’ final year of high school, which is the first year for Kobayakawa Yutaka, Iwasaki Minami, Tamura Hiyori, and Patricia Martin. The background combo, Kusakabe Misao and Minegishi Ayano, have minor roles earlier in the show but have an increased presence later.
Every episode includes a Lucky Channel segment, hosted by Kogami Akira and Shiraishi Minoru. The first twelve episodes end with the main characters singing karaoke, and the final twelve episodes end with a live-action segment where Shiraishi Minoru sings outside.
