Costumes in School 11 May 2025 / By Flay Ming-Akori What’s Wrong with Costumes? As you all know, costumes of any kind are not allowed in school. It’s a shame because costumes are fun and embrace creativity. I see lots of costumes, like a full on knight with a sword, a dog, Patrick, Yoshi, KPD, and more. What’s wrong with costumes? What is Banned? Full Costumes The most obvious, full costumes. Like the knight pictured above and Yoshi pictured below! Some people go all out and get chewed out for it. Sure, the masks make a bit of sense, but the Halloween Dance was fun and caused no issues. It’s fun, creative, and makes people well-liked and popular! Onesies Onesies are something I just don’t understand. It’s a simple one piece...

Time & Studies - Konyou Enatsu April 30, 2025 Let's be honest with ourselves for a second. How much time do we really spend on our classes? Half of the people don't show up, even if they say that they do. We never discuss what happens in the classes and just get along with our days like nothing happened. And then the times that people do show up, let's not pretend that we're actually focusing. Most of the time is spent whispering with whoever's sitting next to us and planning out the next drama-filled event at the school. I don't even want to get started about the people who are daydreaming, because I totally don't do that myself. What I'm trying to say is, there is always something more 'important' than class. Not naming anybody...

Faculty - What Are They? 24 MARCH 2025 / By Flay Ming-Akori Real People or Machines? As artificial intelligence, or AI, starts taking over jobs, it makes me wonder.. Are faculty actually robots? Do they show empathy, do they have a purpose outside of school? I wonder this myself, and I’m here to look deeper into it. Proof of Suspicion Lack of Reactions I recall the time when Mr. Riggs crashed from the ceiling and right onto Ms. Mori. If I got RKOed mid-class while I was teaching, I would take that personally. However, Ms. Mori just got up like nothing happened. No injuries, no dusting off her pants. Just went right back into her lecture while Riggs just “oop I’m out.” When students insult faculty, they never react emotionally...

Why would leashing a literal human be an issue solver? The School’s problem Simply put, there are just too many problems in this school, be it homework, the right to even have a chance against bullies, or even the mere existence of those who don't care whether you're a friend or foe to your classmate. The most important thing, however, is discipline and following the rules. Those who follow the school rules are usually decent classmates or even teachers and school employees. But unfortunately, like in every other school, there's a problem that's almost impossible to solve. Namely, the rule breakers themselves. They don't listen, they don't pay attention, and they don't care whether a rule is broken or whether they end up in...

“Protect and Serve” The Karakura Police Department, better known as KPD, graced our school stage earlier this week. The demonstration was set to focus on ways for citizens to stay safe while crime in our town continues to grow. Those in attendance included Officers K876, K250, K555, K420, as well as Detectives K808 & K313. Once each was introduced the rest of the assembly began. Karakura Community College’s own Professor Benicious A. Watcher participated as the supposed criminal being raided. KPD showed themselves gearing up before entering the residence, which had already been signaled to have illegal weapons. They were able to show their crowbars and riot shields! Hopefully none of the students have had to see them before.. Upon...

What's a striker? A striker is the individual who scores the winning goal. They have a keen eye for where to be and when, they have the talent and skill to be capable of taking advantage and scoring as soon as they notice any weakness or even a single opportunity. It's not only about scoring, but it's also about dominating and destroying your opponents on the field. That's what a striker is. "How does one become a good striker?" A good striker is not somebody who scores goals. It's somebody who is the team leader, the center of the field, the one who is dominant. A good striker doesn't score goals, they take them. They gulp them whole. Don't even give the defense a chance to block them. A world-class striker forces the defense to...

Ending the 'Jock' Stereotype 20 April 2025 / by Chiyo K. Komatsu If you consumed any type of Disney content as a child, you’re most likely familiar with the common ‘Jock’ caricature, the male character that played either Football (the American kind..) or Basketball, bullied nerds (AKA what would've been us Journalism kids I guess) and got all the hot cheerleaders. The main jock was usually some super significant role in the sports team as well, like the captain or the quarterback, and they always got paired with the hot blonde cheer captain. Anyways, hope you remember that from your childhood, and hope you can forget it RIGHT FREAKING NOW! We are LEAVING this stereotype in the 2000s and FAR AWAY from Karakura. Okay, okay...

A Bittersweet Goodbye 01 April 2025 / By Flay Ming-Akori The Resignation of our Beloved Vice Chancellor After serving over a decade in Karakura High and College, it’s time to say goodbye to Byeol Akihito. After some hard decisions, “it’s time to move ahead for more challenging opportunities,” Akihito claims. Opening up a new chapter of her life after the grueling stress of personal family events. Rumors: True or Not The definition of the term ‘Rumor’ is: a currently circulating story or report of uncertain or doubtful truth.’ It’s best to mention that not all rumors are true, but when it comes to plausible ones, it’s best to do your own research. As you may know, Mi Akihito owns a poisonous spider and brought it to school. The...

Public Displays of Affection 05 April 2025 / By Flay Ming-Akori PDA: What is it? Contrary to popular belief, PDA isn’t just public displays of affection between two lovers. In fact, it can be between family members or even friends. You may ask, “How? Was I doing it without knowing?” Of course you have, allow me to explain. You’ve Got the Wrong Idea PDA isn’t all about kissing. It can also be many other things! Here are some examples. If you see someone doing these, be sure to call them out. Lovers Holding Hands Cuddling Kissing Pet Names Headpats Family Holding Hands Cuddling/Leaning on “Cute” Names Headpats Friends Holding hands Cuddling/Leaning on “Cute” Names Headpats PDA means “Public Displays of Affection.” Public, also...

The constant changing fashion sense of Karakura Written By Nobou Nakahara 4/3/2025 Good morning evening or goodnight Karakura! Today ill be looking at a less trivial issue with our school, that being the many unique and ever-changing outfits and clothing students tend to wear on a regular day! That being said, I went around and interviewed a few students asking to describe their outfit, seeing if they chose it for the weather or for fashion, and a photo of that person (If they are alright with that of course)! The interviews #1 Name: [This person wished to not state their name.] Type of outfit: "I'm wearing a white baby doll dress, with a soft pink long sleeve crop top, and a pink heart beret to match! And a red ribbon, with a...

Trivial Fights at Karakura High - Konyou Enatsu (03/31/2025) (Undisclosed Source) It’s not uncommon to find a fight on school grounds even if it isn’t supposed to happen. It baffles me that people even engage in these fights in the first place. And when people come up with ‘reasons’ to start a conflict, it gets even more confusing. In a recent interview, a student from Karakura High, whose name remains undisclosed, shared a story about a student who planned to impress a girl in perhaps the worst way imaginable–by pretending to get into a fight with his friend. The idea? Stir up some drama, take a hit, and walk away looking like some tragic hero. What could possibly go wrong, right? Well, as it turns out, everything! The two...

What Type are you even? In all these years, or even five years ago, not much has changed in the types of students, although there are many types. Questionable, loving, or even insurmountable students who can almost make you vomit. But whatever may come, you can see it with your own eyes. It's already arrived at the point where this school isn't exactly the most normal, but rather possessed by students who are almost godlike and down to earth. Which means that this school is unpredictable. Not just by the teachers and so on, but mainly by the students. Starting with.. Type 1 The Casual Student Not really anyone special, just a simple student, whether in college or high school. Learning or not, someone who either follows school...

I mean - yeah, this is pretty common enough to where people don’t often ask WHY it’s even that way but like, that’s exactly why I’m writing this! Some people in the school are WAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY too confident in being like that and it’s like …??? What’s the reason? I mean, other than probable daddy issues ‘n whatnot. Also no, certain Spartans aren’t safe from this either JUST because I said ‘Karakura High’. Love you guys but PLEASE…. One of the BIGGEST parts of this whole thing is Onrain. Whiiiiich should be obvious; the internet is a great place to get stuff out or spread rumors…. Probably one of the reasons why Onrain’s kinda debated over the way it is. But that’s besides the point, I was looking at the site for the first time in...

By: Sumi Ishida How tidy do you keep your home? Spick and span? A little messy? Or perhaps as though a mini tornado passed through? Well, we’ve all been there at one point or another. A busy day, week, or month, and the dust collects. Now picture you got a pop-by visit from your school chancellor in the midst of it. Roughly a week ago, I first noticed the peculiar decorations in the dorm pathways. A mattress on the soggy cement, blanket and pillows to match, hanging from the strands of lights that illuminate the sidewalk, several jerseys strewn about. Initially I suspected this to be a prank on one of the teams, as such is not too unusual, but after a day or so I found an email in my inbox that nodded to a greater issue...

Main Character Syndrome 03 February 2025 / By Flay Ming-Akori What is a Main Character? When you watch a movie, TV show, or read a book, you often have the protagonist, also known as the main character. They are the center of attention and often carry some serious plot armor. Plot armor is when they defy all odds to survive a situation because they’re needed for the plot to carry on. For example, Deku from My Hero Academia. Without giving away too much, Deku had his future told by someone whose power revolves around it. And against all odds, plus a harsh fight, he survives. He’s the main character and must survive for the plot. Who else is dumb enough to do the things he does? He is needed, so he stays. He’s immortal. Karakura...

A Guide for those in need of help against fears of school and popularities. Fear of school itself?

School Changes 14 January 2025 / By Flay Ming-Akori Introduction Have you noticed something off lately? The school is slowly changing. From the walls being solid all the way to ceilings giving way; there’s a lot to discover when it comes to Karakura’s infamous school! Is this change staying for the better, or is it all temporary? Have You Seen It? Falling Through the Ceiling?! In Miss. Mori’s classroom, Mr. Riggs RKOed her right in front of the whole class! It was glorious, but it left a large hole in the ceiling! If you were lucky enough to witness the event, you’d also remember the weird creaking sounds coming from the ceiling soon after Mr. Riggs returned up there. I wonder what he’s doing? Don’t Converse at the Gate The walls...

10th of January, 2025 Student Council is a well-known name in Karakura today. Has the thought ever crossed your mind about its history? Today, I will cover some information I found during my student council research. The Beginning It all started during the education boom between 1964 and 1979. During this period, the student council went by a different name: the Moral Club. It comprised students who wanted to spread equity and morality throughout the school. This caught Principal Tada’s attention and decided to rename it to what we know today, student council. The Student Council was a committee of students who would enforce rules and assist the school when needed. November 14th, 1967, student Hiroaki Yamaguchi became the first...
