How to Carry People in Gakuran (2026)

Pick up and move a downed player with the V key. Carry is separate from execute — here is exactly how it works, where it works, and how to use it in PvP and roleplay.

Quick Answer

Walk up to a downed player and press V on PC (or D-Pad Up on console) to pick them up and carry them. Press B instead to execute. Carry only works in combat zones — not in Green Zones like Classrooms or the Library.

Carry vs Execute

ActionPC KeyConsoleWhat it does
CarryVD-Pad UpPick up the downed player and move them wherever you walk.
Execute / GripBD-Pad DownFinish the downed player on the spot to end the encounter.

Both binds are confirmed by the official Gakuran Controls card (v - carry, b - execute).

Step-by-Step: How to Carry

  1. Knock the target down in a combat zone (Courtyard, Basketball Court, Club Akuma outdoor area, Fitness Center, etc.).
  2. Walk right up to the downed player — carry only triggers at close range.
  3. Press V to pick them up.
  4. Move normally to relocate them — drag them away from help, toward a friend, or into a roleplay spot.
  5. Press B if you want to execute instead, or just drop them by moving away.

Where Carry Works (and Where It Does Not)

Carry is a combat interaction, so it follows the same safe-zone rules as fighting stance:

  • Works: Courtyard, Basketball Court, Club Akuma outdoor area, Fitness Center, Hallways, and other open combat zones.
  • Disabled: Green Zones where combat stance is off — Classrooms, Library, and the Infirmary. You cannot carry a downed player inside these areas.
  • Tip: if V does nothing, check the top of your screen — if combat stance will not activate, carry will not either.

When to Use Carry

RP Escort

Move a "downed" friend to a roleplay scene, the nurse's office entrance, or a hangout spot for bits.

Deny Revives

Drag an opponent away from their gang before they get picked up, then execute (B) out of reach.

Reposition for Clips

Set up a finisher pose or screenshot in a cleaner part of the map.

Avoid Griefing Flags

On RP-heavy servers, carrying is cleaner than stomping — win the fight, then leave.

Frequently Asked Questions

What key carries a downed player in Gakuran?
Press V on PC to pick up and carry a downed player. The official Controls card lists "v - carry". On console, carry is mapped to D-Pad Up (Xbox and PlayStation).
What is the difference between carry and execute?
Carry (V) picks the downed player up so you can move them. Execute / Grip (B, or D-Pad Down on console) finishes the downed player on the spot. Use carry to relocate someone; use execute to end the encounter.
Why does the carry key do nothing?
Carry only works on a player who is already knocked down, and only in areas where combat stance is allowed. Green Zones (Classrooms, Library, Infirmary) disable combat, so you cannot carry there. Make sure you are close to the downed player and not standing in a safe zone.
Can I carry players on mobile?
Mobile uses the on-screen control layout. The carry action appears as a button near the downed player when combat is active — tap it the same way you would press V on PC.
