What is Gakuran?
Gakuran is a Japanese school fighting and roleplay game on Roblox developed by GakuranDev, set in a Japanese school town during May 2005. Players choose from 4 fighting styles — Boxing, Muay Thai, Hakari, and Hoop Demon — and battle in skill-based melee combat with punches, weaves, slams, and stomps. The game features open PvP, a gang system of 2-6 members, indoor green zones, and rich roleplay activities.
Skill-Based Combat
No weapons, no RNG — just pure melee skill. Punch, weave, slam, and stomp your way to dominance. Timing, spacing, and reads determine every fight.
4 Fighting Styles
Boxing, Muay Thai, Hakari, and Hoop Demon — each with unique move sets, playstyles, and tier rankings. Find the style that matches your combat approach.
Open PvP
Fight anywhere in the school town with skill-based melee combat. Weave to dodge, slam to punish, and stomp to finish — but respect the indoor green zones.
School Roleplay
Attend classes, play basketball, use the phone system, hit the gym, and express yourself with emotes. Life in May 2005 Japan is more than just fighting.
Whether you are pressuring opponents with Boxing combos, spacing with Muay Thai, bursting down targets with Hakari, or unleashing flashy burst with Hoop Demon, every fight is a test of skill. The height system adds strategic depth by affecting reach and stamina, while the gang system turns 1v1 encounters into crew warfare. With roleplay features like classrooms, basketball, and emotes, there is always something to do between fights.

Combat Mechanics Overview
Light Pressure
The foundation of all combat in Gakuran. Consistent light attacks and hit confirms set up everything else — guard break mix-ups, slam combos, and stagger pressure all flow from strong light pressure.
Guard Break
A mechanic that punishes excessive blocking. If an opponent blocks too many hits without weaving or countering, their guard breaks, leaving them vulnerable to a slam or stomp follow-up.
Ragdoll Cancel
A recovery mechanic that lets you get back on your feet faster after being knocked down. Timing the input correctly recovers before the opponent can follow up with a stomp or slam.
Diagonal Dash
A movement tech that lets you cover more distance by inputting a diagonal direction during a dash. Essential for closing gaps, escaping pressure, and creating offensive angles in PvP.
Wall Route
A movement tech that uses wall geometry to reposition quickly during fights. Wall routes create escape angles, approach paths, and pressure resets that give you an edge in PvP positioning.
