Gakuran Wiki

Overview

Gakuran (学乱) drops you into Nishikata High School in May 2007 Japan. The developer describes it as an intended slice-of-life experience, but the community has turned the game into a brawler-heavy sandbox where gangs, turf disputes, and one-on-one duels fill the courtyards. Whether you want to roleplay a student, master the parry-based combat system, or chase rare fighting styles, this wiki connects every system — codes, combat, fighting styles, and locations — in one place.

Verified by Lucas Turner on July 8, 2026 at 10:00 UTC: I checked the official Gakuran Roblox page and confirmed 26.1M+ visits, 195,165 favorites, and 58,712 active players as displayed, with a server size of 50 players. The game received its most recent update on July 7, 2026.

Codes, Combat, Fighting Styles, and Locations

The four pillars of Gakuran are covered across this wiki:

• Codes — Free rerolls for height, ethnicity, and fighting style.
• Combat — Parry, posture, guard breaks, and mix-ups.
• Fighting styles — Rollable combat identities with different rarity tiers.
• Locations — The school, shops, and training spots of the Nishikata district.

What Is Gakuran?

Gakuran is a free-to-play Roblox experience built around two overlapping loops:

• Skill-based melee combat — Light attacks, heavy attacks, blocking, parrying, guard breaks, and dodging form a tense back-and-forth that rewards timing over button mashing.
• School-life roleplay — The map includes classrooms, a basketball court, a music room, ramen shops, a coffee shop, and a laundromat. Players use the in-game phone for social apps, mini-games, contacts, and jobs.

The tension between those two loops is what defines the game. New players often arrive expecting a fighting game, get knocked around in the courtyard, and then realize that learning the combat system is the fastest way to survive long enough to enjoy the social side.

Core Game Systems

Character Creation and Rerolls

When you first join, your character rolls random values for height, ethnicity, face, hair, and fighting style. These are not purely cosmetic:

• Height affects hitbox size, health, damage, attack speed, range, and stamina recovery.
• Ethnicity follows a Japanese-school distribution: Japanese is the most common spawn, with foreign ethnicities rolled at a much lower rate.
• Fighting styles come in rarity tiers: Common 59%, Uncommon/Rare 30%, Epic 10%, and Legendary 1%.

If you dislike your roll, you can spend rerolls through the Stats/Avatar menu. Codes currently grant free rerolls, which is why the codes page is the first stop for many players.

Combat Basics

Combat in Gakuran uses a stance toggle and resource bar called Posture:

Holding block drains Posture. If your Posture empties while blocking, you suffer a guard break and become vulnerable for roughly two seconds. A perfectly timed block executes a parry, negating damage, costing no Posture, and stunning the attacker. Read the full breakdown on the combat guide.

The In-Game Phone

Pressing Alt opens a smartphone with apps for messaging, contacts, mini-games, music, a social feed, a job board, a dial pad, a camera, and the in-game currency app. The phone is easy to overlook, but it is the main way to access jobs and social features outside of raw combat.

Quick Start Route

If you are loading in for the first time, this is the most efficient order:

1. Join the official Roblox group to unlock full access.
2. Create your character and accept your first roll, or use a code to reroll if you have one.
3. Open the menu, claim any active codes, and decide whether to reroll height or style first.
4. Practice the stance toggle (T), light attacks, blocking, and dodging in a quiet corner before entering a crowded fight.
5. Use the locations guide to find the gym, basketball court, and social hubs.

FAQ

What should I do first in Gakuran?

Join the official group, create your character, claim any active codes, and practice the basic combat inputs in a low-traffic area before fighting other players.

Is Gakuran a fighting game or a roleplay game?

It is both. The developer designed it as a slice-of-life school simulator, but the active community treats combat and gangs as the main endgame. You can play either way.

How do I get better at PvP in Gakuran?

Learn to parry, stop spamming the full light-attack string, mix in heavy attacks, and manage your Posture bar. The combat guide covers each mechanic in detail.

What is the best fighting style in Gakuran?

There is no single best style. Boxing is widely considered the safest all-around pick for beginners, while Muay Thai rewards players who can control spacing. Style rarity does not always equal practical strength.

Where can I find the gym and social areas?

The locations guide lists every major spot, including the fitness center, basketball court, ramen shop, coffee shop, and laundromat.
