The better part of a century after the events of ''Anime/SteelAngelKurumi'', a new generation of Steel Angels (and their masters) come into play. Nako Kagura, 14 years old and in the last year of middle school, is both a shrine maiden at the temple where she lives with her mother, Misaki, and an aspiring cellist.

Made by the same creative team that produced the original ''Steel Angel Kurumi'', and for the same anthology series, ''Steel Angel Kurumi 2'' is shorter (only 12 fifteen-minute episodes) and has a much narrower focus. Although the great, far-future conflict that drives much of the first series is mentioned several times, the real core of the action here is the web of relationships formed between Nako, Uruka and the Steel Angels, and the comedy and drama that are born from it.

The better part of a century after the events of ''Anime/SteelAngelKurumi'', a new generation of Steel Angels (and their masters) come into play. Nako Kagura, 14 years old and in the last year of middle school, is both a shrine maiden at the temple where she lives with her mother, Misaki, and an aspiring cellist. Her best friend is Uruka Sumeragi, the rich girl who lives in the [[BigFancyHouse big fancy house]] next door. She is 15 years old and a high school student. Their relationship is complicated: although they have been friends since they were toddlers, Uruka has recently taken to inflicting casual minor cruelties on Nako. [[{{Tsundere}} However, this is a smokescreen]] because Uruka is secretly in love with Nako.

Before Uruka can even figure out how to express her feelings, though, Nako discovers and accidentally activates Kurumi Mark II, a new Steel Angel modeled after the original Kurumi. Kurumi II, like her predecessor, is uninhibitedly affectionate with her new master. This upsets Uruka, who sees Kurumi as usurping her rightful place at Nako's side. Uruka's billionaire father, who dotes on his daughter to a degree that would disgust [[Literature/CharlieAndTheChocolateFactory Veruca Salt]], offers his help. First with giant robots airdropped on Kurumi, and later with Steel Angel Saki Mark II, whom Uruka accidentally activates with a kiss she imagines sharing with Nako. Although Saki II automatically falls for Uruka as part of her activation, it seems some of the Mark I version carried over to the new model. The original Saki's devotion to Kurumi remains, and leaves Saki II hopelessly longing for two loves who pay no attention to her.

Things get even more complicated when the spiritual successors to Nakahito activate Karinka Mark II in an attempt to retrieve and "fix" the wayward Kurumi and Saki. But it backfires on them when Karinka discovers the extraordinary strength Kurumi derives from her relationship with Nako. Wanting the same power-up, Karinka abandons her mission and moves in with Nako, Misaki and Kurumi, and contests with the latter for Nako's attention.

Meanwhile, with Kurumi's encouragement, Nako has entered a cello competition. But when the others learn that the prize is a chance to study in Vienna, will the enemies and rivals unite to destroy the dream of the one they all claim to love?

* CrossPoppingVeins: Uruka is prone to have these whenever Kurumi does something that really makes her mad. She also has one when she finds out that her father (unknowingly) was responsible for Kurumi being in the same class as Nako. Kurumi has one when a second humongous mecha appears while she is talking to Nako at school.

* HumongousMecha: Kurumi fights a couple that Uruka's father sends out on the behalf of his daughter. Kuruma ultimately defeats them.

* TokenYuriGirls: The series tops the original with what is either an oversized LoveTriangle or a small LoveDodecahedron: Kurumi Mk. II is fixated upon young cellist Nako, who activated her.

Eventually, Nako comes to return Kurumi's feelings.

* {{Tsundere}}: Uruka. Hostile and taunting toward Nako in public, longing and wistful in private. She softens on Nako in the second half of the season.
