Gilbert was ass. Too early in the game to rely on luck and getting him. Restarted 3 times to make sure someone successfully attacked him and then that he didn't die.
But yeah, it wasn't that I didn't get the 108, it was that I didn't press the button in time to save Nanami. Riou's supposed to dive in to save her if you react in the half-second you have to say "Look out" or "Nanami," but instead I got the part where she deflects two arrows and catches the third in the gut. Replaying the whole thing to try and save her this time. Also going to get the early ending where they abandon the army too.
Like, I just started playing Suikoden in the past two weeks. Really enjoyed the first one, thought it was fun. Love the second one, and it's just got me really into the characters. I need to find copies of 3 and 4 since I missed out on this series the first time around.
