Blue Archive The Animation episode 2- Unimaginable debt and the story behind it

After taking down the Kata-Kata Helmet Gangster, the girls from Abydos thanked Sensei for his help. However, a new problem arose as the school had incurred a huge loan debt. The outstanding debt is a massive ¥962,350,000, an amount that seems impossible to pay off. When Sensei asked the girls how this came to be, they shared some history about the school.

Turns out, it all started with a destructive sandstorm many years ago. The storm hit the Abydos region and caused lots of damage, covering everything in sand. The cost of repairing the city was high, so they needed a loan. However, no bank was willing to lend them money. The only option they had was to take a loan from a company called Kaiser Loans and they hoped to pay this loan off soon.

However, luck wasn’t on their side. Subsequent sandstorms led to most parts of Abydos getting buried in sand again. The city was damaged, the debts grew, and the students lost hope. If they couldn't pay off the debt, the school would be taken over by the bank and would have to close down. Most students, who believed there was little chance of paying off the debt, left. Now, just a few students remain at the school and despite the challenging situation, they continue to stay hopeful.

After learning about the loan crisis in Blue Archive The Animation episode 2, Sensei thanks the students and suggests that they get through this tough situation by working together. He even offers his help for the future.

Serika, however, doesn't take this well. She tells Sensei off, reminding him that he's new here and she's not going to follow orders from someone who just arrived. Serika also tells him to stop acting high and mighty.

Serika resists Sensei's attempts to mend their relationship. In an effort to reconnect, Sensei and the gang secretly follow her and discover that she's a waitress at Shiba Seki Ramen Cafe.

After eating there, Serika's boss gives her the rest of the day off and speaks positively about Sensei. Outside, Shiroko also mentions Sensei's reliability. Her boss and Shiroko praising Sensei prompts Serika to reassess her stance on him. However, before she can reflect further, she is unexpectedly kidnapped.

The following day, Ayane shares the alarming news of Serika's abduction with everyone. In the kidnapper's vehicle, a disoriented Serika regains consciousness, only to break down upon understanding the situation. While panic ensues amongst her friends, Sensei, backed up by Arona, ascertains Serika's whereabouts. They discover that she's been taken by the Kata-Kata Helmet Gangster to their main base.

Meanwhile, Ayane and Sensei wait behind a pillar for the perfect moment to strike.
