Which Gakuran Style Fits Your Height?
Height affects combat directly in Gakuran: taller characters hit harder and have more HP and reach but move slower, while shorter characters deal and take less damage but move faster with a smaller hitbox. On top of that base height effect, the developers single out Capoeira and Wrestling as the two styles built around a taller character's mobility and heavy-throw kit — Capoeira leans on dash-cooldown reduction and knockdown pressure, while Wrestling leans on a hyperarmored grab-throw combo. Every other style is height-flexible, with no official lean toward tall or short builds.
This height-fit mapping is confirmed directly from the developers' own notes, not a community guess — but it's still a build recommendation, not a hard restriction. A short character can pick up Capoeira or Wrestling and a tall character can play Boxing; the fit just describes which kit tends to pair best with each height's strengths.
Gakuran Styles Rarity Tiers
Gakuran's 9 styles are split across four official rarity tiers, each with its own combined drop rate when you roll: Legendary at 1% (Kure, Capoeira, Wrestling), Epic at 10% (Hakari and Boxing, sometimes misspelled Hikari), Uncommon at 30% (Muay Thai, Slugger, Karate), and Common at 59% (Basic). These percentages are the tier's combined rate, confirmed by the developers — not the odds of landing any one specific style inside that tier, which hasn't been published.
Rarity roughly tracks each style's signature perk strength: Legendary styles carry the heaviest single perks (Wrestling's hyperarmored grab-throw, Capoeira's cooldown-and-knockdown kit, Kure's low-HP damage boost), Epic styles build around a big conditional payoff (Hakari's triple-damage window after a full combo, Boxing's invincible double hit), and Uncommon/Common styles trade that ceiling for more consistent, lower-variance kits. See each style's card above for its exact heavy-attack perk and last-verified date.
