Mishima Academy Area Description The only secondary/post secondary school in Madasui; Mishima is located on a large square of land between the Mizuhana and Amehara rivers, and is effectively its own district. In fact, the only ways in and out of Mishima are through two gates to the north and south - however, they remain open most of the time.
From the south entrance, one would immediately notice the large courtyard. The grass is extremely well-maintained, and there are trees lining the path ways. Tables are scattered throughout and are often used by students during their lunches/downtimes. In autumn, the non-cherry blossom trees change colour, making Mishima a sight to behold.
As for the campus itself, the school can effectively be split into two halves from the south gate: to the left of the main building are newer facilities (the high school, the clubs building, and the athletics fields). To the right are the many university faculties and a perpetually overgrown patch of land that - at one point - had been a football field.
If one enters through the north gate, they would find themselves directly next to the three dormitories. From this slight hill, they could make out the back of the main building and - depending on their placement - some of the university ones.
As a result of everything's age, the older facilities (save for the dorms and main building) are under constant renovation.
The main building looks like a Western-style manor and looms over the main courtyard/both halves of the school. Although some renovations have been made (like a large clock face set into the top, just above the headmaster's office), its principal architecture remains largely unchanged. The inside, meanwhile, houses a collection of stores, offices, libraries, and auditoriums.
Uniform, Admissions, and History. History and ReputationMishima touts itself as an academy with a rich history - and that is somewhat true. It began life as a western estate used by visiting dignitaries and government officials, fell into significant disrepair, and was renovated/opened as a place of learning by the Meiji Government. In 1960, its high school branch opened. The school will accept any student with the money or talent to attend. Its motto is Latin for "we will excel," which is reflective of its true purpose: to study and cultivate students' talents such that the normal become talented and the talented achieve great things - which many of its alumni have. At the same time, Mishima's reputation is kept in-check by its low expectations, troublesome attendees, a high turnover rate for staff, and (depending on who you ask) being elitist or lenient. AdmissionDespite (or perhaps because of) Mishima's apparently low standards, there are three ways to enter:
- Method 1: By scoring a 60% or more on the entrance exam, HS students do not have to pay tuition. University students, meanwhile, pay a normal tuition rate.
- Method 2: By scoring at least a 50% but less than a 60%, HS students can attend - provided they pay tuition. University students can attend at 1.2 times the normal tuition rate.
- Method 3: Scouting. Mishima seeks to cultivate talent, so it offers a skills/trades program in which scouted students are given certain privileges. These students usually take standard courses, but also unique additions to their program in lieu of certain requirements or electives - more practice time for sports, preferential treatment, increased study periods, and even access to research/
UniformMishima's emblem is a silver cross (or star?) inside an enclosed circle. This can be seen as a background on most PCs as well as on the breast pocket of all uniform shirts, blazers, and blouses. Staff is also asked to wear a pin with the same logo, but very few of them do. Mishima's staff does not expect the uniform to be immaculate. Minor alternations like clothing length, the presence of a ribbon/tie (or how it's tied), certain accessories, and minor damage are all acceptable; however, bigger additions require staff approval - even if they are rarely rejected. The school colours are black, white, red, and grey/silver. The exact scheme of the uniform is dependent on the student's status: standard students are given red uniforms with black accents, whereas scouted ones are given black uniforms with red accents. In the summer months, a student's shirts are accented by their "dominant" colour (black for scouted, red for unscouted); if the shirt matches their colour, then no accent is present. Staff does not have to wear any sort of uniform or school colours, so long as they dress appropriately. University students, because of how important appearances are, must wear a uniform.
- Males: A blazer (accents in the non-dominant colour are along the collar, cuffs, and hem), a red, white, grey, or black dress shirt, a tie in black or red (student's choice), and grey/black dress pants (student's choice).
- Females: A blazer (same accents as male uniform), a white, grey, black, or red blouse (student's choice), a ribbon in red or black (student's choice), and the student's choice of pants or a skirt in either black or grey. If a skirt, the student may also wear tights/stockings in black or grey (though they aren't a requirement.)
- Rumour; Males typically confess to female students by giving the second button of their uniform (closest to the heart). Female students reply (or confess) by giving a uniform ribbon. No one knows how this tradition started, but everyone believes it spiritually binds the two people together when a mutual exchange occurs.
Dorm Room List Odd numbered floors house double rooms; even numbered floors house single rooms. The first floor houses all facilities: lounges, a kitchen, and so on. Dorm staff occupies the first room on each floor, numbered 100/200 etc. Teachers can serve as dormitory supervisors, should they lack housing or should they want a bit of extra money. Due to the scarcity of dormitory staff, gender is irrelevant - female staff may supervise the male dorms, and male staff may supervise the female dorms. Shuffling may not occur, but to prevent complaints/scandals, staff may be asked to move if a suitable same-gender replacement is found. The rules are strict regarding what can and cannot enter the dorms. While staff won't necessary check a student's bags or room, they will severely punish anyone who brings in contraband or pets. There are three dormitories: one for males, one for females, and one co-ed. Typically, high school students are not permitted to live in the co-ed dorms - with some exceptions. Room List
- Male Dorm:
- Female Dorm:
- Room 101: Mikoto Misaki and Ai Yukimura
- Co-Ed Dorms:
- Room 108: Dominique Rousseau and (EMPTY)
- Room 204: Heiwa Akatsuki
Homeroom List Like most Japanese high schools, Mishima only has 3 years (Grades 10, 11, and 12). Due to the high turnover rate for teachers, there are very few permanent teachers in general - and that includes homerooms. Headmaster Itoshiki is rapidly searching for people to fill any available spots, regardless as to experience or talent. At present, classes without teachers are assigned substitutes, who are rotated daily to prevent fatigue. The following lists are just an indicator of who's where. If you want a character in 1-B, but Class 1-B isn't listed, it will be after that character is approved. In addition, classes cap out at 29 students and 1 teacher - for a total of 30 characters/room. Listings 1-A: (TBD) 2-B: Kyousuke Aoki
- Ai Yukimura
- Heiwa Akatsuki
3-A: Rin Shimou 3-B: Makoto Akagi
- Kikuhime Yamashina-no-miya
3-C: (TBD)
