Hakuoh Academy

Hakuoh Academy (白凰女学院, Hakuō Jogakuin, alt. Hakuoh Girl's Academy) is an all-female educational establishment located in the planet Sea of the Morning Star. It is where Marika Kato is studying and is also home to the Hakuoh Academy Space Yacht Club.

Background
Hakuoh Academy is situated where the former government office for the Sea of the Morning Star was during the War of Independence. The buildings from the war were preserved and are used by the school, though most of the underground sections, which covers about 5 times the building area of the school in size, remained untouched.

The original governer was interested in buildings with different secret passageways, thus ordered to build the office full of such secret passages. Some of such passages were later used to connect to the later built underground command centre. Some of the secret passages were found and used by students and teachers as short cuts, with the school's Adventure Club aimed in finding more secret passages as its main activities. Some time before the bounty arc, a large underground section was discovered by the Drama club under the stage, but was sealed off and left as a rumour among students.

Uniform
The standard high school uniform at Hakuoh consists of a light grey jacket with blue lining, a thigh-length grey skirt, a white collared shirt underneath and a red ribbon tied in a bow. A summer variant of the uniform replaces the jacket with a cream-coloured jumper.

The middle school uniform consists of a pink jacket with white lining and cuffs, a white skirt with a pink line near the edge, and a blue bow.

Campus
The Hakuoh Academy campus is very large, with many blocks of buildings, arranged in a semi-symmetrical pattern. There are various sections of greenery between the buildings, with trees, lawns, winding paths and in one case, a small lake. There are sports field and courts on one side of the campus and a parking lot next to it, connecting to a road which goes around the campus, next to the sea.

The forest behind the school was originally a rather open forest, but time passed and trees grew, which rendered it to be a really thick forestation that one can easily get lost in. A rectangular area with relatively newer trees was the location of the former green house, which was moved to the top of a hill located next to the forest.

The former Yacht Club club house was located in the forest behind the school, next to a relatively large lake where they could practice yachting, there were still some yachts left on the lake.
