(学乱) Gakuran

1. Accessories

Obtained via the accessory roll system — not a direct shop. Character has slots for head, face, neck, and arm accessories, each with its own ID and reroll button.

1.1 Accessories with Combat Interactions

Headphones:

• Available in standard black and a thinner brown variant
• Connect to the phone's Music app for private music playback while walking/working/socializing
• ⚔️ Combat: a strong enough punch can knock them off. Whatever was playing privately becomes audible to nearby players

Glasses:

• Available as Thick Black Glasses or Thin Black Glasses
• ⚔️ Combat: a powerful punch can knock them to the ground. Vision becomes blurred until you find them, pick them up, and re-equip them — a real gameplay penalty in a close fight

1.2 Cosmetic Accessories

Scarves: neck accessories; colors: pink, black, grey, blue

Keychains: collectible cosmetic charms:

• Pink Tomodachi-style keychain
• Silver chain keychain
• 8-Ball car keychain

Drinks/Coffee: consumable items from vending machines and the Coffee Shop — social/flavor items, not stat items

Eyepatches and Necklaces: confirmed accessory categories on Trello; variant details not yet published

1. Character & Customization

1.1 Character Creation

Characters are generated with randomized stats (based on population statistics) at creation:

• First name: you choose (3–12 characters)
• Gender: you choose (determines hair and face pools; female models are ~10% slimmer)
• Last name: rolled (4,428 unique last names split by ethnicity: European 838, Latino 795, Middle Eastern 769, Indian 755, African 712, Japanese 559)
• Fighting style: randomly rolled
• Ethnicity: randomly rolled (see section 6.2)
• Height: determined by ethnicity average (see section 6.2)
• Age/School year: rolled (1st, 2nd, or 3rd year — cosmetic for now)
• Hair/Face/Accessories: rolled (pool varies by gender and ethnicity)
• Personality: rolled (effect not yet published by developers)

Nameplate: displays last name in Japanese (kanji for known surnames, katakana for transliterations). Outline color indicates school year: blue = 1st year, purple = 2nd year, yellow = 3rd year.

Rare face: 1% chance of rolling a "mogger face" regardless of ethnicity/gender.

Hair color: each ethnicity has a natural color table — 95% of rolls draw from it. The other 5% get a dyed color outside the natural table (examples: red, pink, purple, green, white, teal).

1.2 Ethnicity System & Height

There are 6 ethnicities in the game, rolled at character creation:

Height averages by ethnicity and gender (from official Trello):

Height is generated around this average — rolls close to the average are far more common than extremes.

1.3 How Height Affects Combat

Which build to target?

• Bruiser (more damage/HP): target European or African ethnicity for a taller average roll
• Speed/evasion build: any ethnicity can roll short; Boxing pairs naturally with short builds
• Balanced: Japanese (~95% default) is perfectly viable — no extreme drawbacks

Height optimization is end-game min-maxing. Combat skill (parry timing, weaving) impacts win rate far more than height alone.

1.4 Rerolls

• Fighting style reroll: 5 Robux (Stats menu)
• Ethnicity reroll: tied to a full character reroll (Robux) — cannot reroll ethnicity independently
• Hair/face/accessories: individual slots each have their own reroll button
• Free rerolls via codes: see Section 7

1. Combat System

1.1 Core Loop

Every fight flows from four chained actions:
Punch → Weave → Slam → Stomp

1. Punch (M1): light attacks to build pressure and create openings
2. Weave: slip or dodge an incoming attack on reaction (not prediction)
3. Slam (R/M2): heavy attack to break the guard of a turtling opponent
4. Stomp: finisher after slamming an opponent to the ground

Main beginner rule: don't spam M1. Predictable attack strings are easy to parry.

1.2 Posture (Stamina)

Posture is the shared resource for both sprinting and blocking:

• Blocking hits drains Posture
• Sprinting drains Posture continuously
• Guard Break: if Posture hits zero while blocking, you're stunned for ~2 seconds and completely vulnerable
• Posture regenerates automatically when you're not sprinting or blocking

Key insight: Parries do NOT consume Posture. You can still parry at zero Posture — this is the correct response when your Posture is depleted rather than trying to block.

1.3 Blocking vs. Parrying

1.4 Guard Pierce — Chip Damage by Style

Every fighting style has a Guard Pierce tier that determines how much damage "leaks" through a held block:

1.5 Grapple / Clash

Occurs when two players attack nearly simultaneously. The player who swung first normally wins, shoving the opponent back and dealing reduced damage. Some styles have a Resilience perk that gives a % chance to escape this outcome (see style perks below).

1.6 Other Combat Options

---

1. Controls (PC) — Confirmed by Official Trello

Notes:

• Shift Lock (Ctrl) is strongly recommended for PvP: without it your character faces the camera direction, which is unpredictable in tight spaces.
• Mobile and console controls are not officially documented — check in-game settings.
• On console, the phone is opened with D-pad Right.

---

1. Jobs & Economy

1.1 Economy Overview

The in-game currency is Yen, managed via the Yenapp on the phone. There is no direct shop — Yen is earned primarily through jobs and can be spent on items, drinks, and experiences around the map.

Player-to-player Yen transfers:

• The Yenapp functions like a mobile payment service
• Each player creates a Yen Tag (unique username for receiving payments)
• Send/receive Yen instantly without meeting in person
• App includes transaction history to track all payments

1.2 How to Get a Job (Step by Step)

1. Press Alt to open the phone
2. Open the Indeed app
3. Browse available job listings
4. Apply for a job
5. Travel to the workplace and complete shifts to earn Yen

Critical job rules:

• Private servers do NOT pay. Jobs only generate Yen on public servers
• Don't leave your work area. Leaving the designated zone significantly reduces your shift payout
• Every job has its own uniform. You receive the uniform when you apply
• Starting a shift earlier in the in-game day yields a higher payout

1.3 Available Jobs

Tip: The Club has the best payout but is a Red Zone — expect fights while working. Coffee Shop is the safest option. 7-Eleven is the best entry point for new players.

1.4 What Yen Is Used For

• Buy items and drinks around the city
• Purchase food at restaurants (Kobayashi Ramen, etc.)
• General character lifestyle and progression

Exact Yen amounts for jobs and item prices have not been published in any accessible source — the Trello lists pay scales but no third-party source has reproduced the specific numbers.

1. Map & Locations

The game is set in the Nishikata District in May 2007 Japan, with 9 connected locations spread across a school campus and the surrounding neighborhood.

1.1 School Campus

Nishikata Highschool

• The heart of the map and main social hub
• Interior includes classrooms (some entered in first-person mode), hallways (tight — good for cornering, dangerous to be surrounded in), music room, Dojo training area, library
• Certain indoor areas disable combat stance
• Second floor: Music Room with playable instruments
• Third floor: newer additions including training areas

Courtyard

• Outdoor area attached to the school
• Main spot for open PvP and group roleplay
• Open space favors styles that need room to dash and reposition

Basketball Court

• Functional basketball minigame (not just scenery)
• Popular neutral ground between rival crews

1.2 The Neighborhood

Kobayashi Ramen — ramen restaurant; popular roleplay hub for school-life scenes

Nishikata Coffee Shop — café; Green Zone; also one of the available job locations

7-Eleven Gas Station — convenience store modeled on the real 2007 Japanese 7-Eleven; Neutral Zone; available as a job

Laundromat — slice-of-life setting; neighborhood texture

Club Akuma — nightlife venue; Red Zone; highest-paying job location; has a powerful NPC bouncer — new players should avoid fighting him

Nishikata Fitness Center — gym; best place to practice PvP with lower stakes

Cycle Shop — currently not an active location but designed for future content (bicycles anticipated in future updates)

Cat Cafe — themed but not currently an active job location

1.3 Zone System

The map uses a color-coded zone system:

1.4 Interactable Objects

1. Minigames & Activities

1.1 Basketball

A full skill-based system with real shot timing, dribbling, and defense:

Shooting:

• Hold F to start the shooting motion — a meter fills
• Release F at the right moment to determine shot quality:
  • Bright Green — perfect release, guaranteed to score if uncontested
  • Lime Green — slightly late, high chance to score
  • Orange — late, lower chance
  • Red — mistimed, guaranteed miss
• A defender contesting your shot reduces its chance regardless of timing
• Height also affects basketball performance

Dribbling:

• X — between the legs
• Z + X — behind the back
• C + X — alternate behind-the-back move
• Backspace — drop the ball

Defense: hold Right Mouse Button to enter defensive stance and contest shots

1.2 Instruments

4 playable instruments using rhythm-game mechanics (notes fall down lanes, hit on beat):

Supports synchronized group performances — players who join a song in progress are automatically synced to the current point.

1.3 Chalkboard

Shared drawing surface. Multiple players can draw simultaneously, each in a different chalk color. Drawings persist until erased with a Chalk Eraser.

1.4 Library Books

Located on the 2nd floor at the end of the left hallway. Books have real flippable pages with full written text — not just a summary screen.

---

1. Phone System

Open with Alt (PC) / D-pad Right (console). The phone has 12 apps, all themed to 2007 Japan:

Adding contacts via Socialink: two players stand near each other, both open Socialink, hold phones together, and confirm the connection. Each is automatically saved to the other's Contacts.

In-game currency: Yen, managed via Yenapp.

---

1. Roleplay, Gangs & Social Layer

Gakuran has a strong social dimension beyond combat:

• Gangs/Crews: formed organically by the community; many organized via the official Discord
• Territory disputes: turf claims across the map are part of the RP
• Emote wheel: includes Bow, Lean, Sit, Dance, Duo, and others
• Nameplates: display last name in Japanese with year-color outline (blue/purple/yellow)
• School life: the phone, instruments, basketball, restaurants, and library create a daily routine beyond fighting

Common community terms:

• Jumping — a group ambushing a single target
• Pressing — verbally or physically intimidating another player to test their resolve
• One tap — state where a player has so little HP they can be killed in one hit
• Grip — finishing a downed opponent
• Banging — active gang warfare or showing crew loyalty

Zone etiquette: Green Zone locations (coffee shop, classrooms, music room) are social spaces — fighting there disrupts RP scenes and goes against community norms.

1.7 Tier List Summary

Rankings are community-based, not official developer data. Subject to change with patches.

Note on Hoop Demon: Cited consistently across community sources as the current strongest PvP style. However, it does not appear in either the rollable styles list OR the unreleased styles list in the Trello board — its exact rarity category is unconfirmed via Trello. Its dominance is confirmed by gameplay footage.

---

1.8 Unreleased / Unrollable Styles (Listed on Trello but Not Obtainable)

These styles are documented on the official Trello under a separate "unreleased/unrollable" grouping. They are not part of the normal rarity table and cannot be obtained through rerolls. Some are intended for lore-specific NPCs, some are WIP, and one is actively marked for removal.
