In-Game Currency: Yen

The Yenapp on the phone confirms Gakuran uses Yen as its in-game currency. The Yenapp is where you manage your balance.

Mixi — The 2007 Detail

The inclusion of Mixi as a phone app is a deliberate historical touch. In May 2007 (the game's setting), Mixi was Japan's largest social network — predating the smartphone era and LINE. Its presence in the game is a nod to authentic period accuracy that Gakuran's lore team clearly cared about.

Tips for Using the Phone

  • Add players to Contacts quickly after meeting people you want to reconnect with
  • Use Socialink and Mixi for school-life roleplay beyond just fighting
  • The Games app opens minigames — a break from PvP when you want something different
  • The Camera app is useful for capturing roleplay moments
