K, so New Game+, trying to use Robo with the Apocalypse Arm + Dragon Tear to kill the 5 flames around it first. Last night I got him down to one flame but won the fight before I could kill off the last flame. Interestingly enough, after a roulette spin I hit the last flame and it generated the Miss: counterattack (meaning for that round SoS was unable to be damaged). Then after another roulette spin I hit the flame and won the fight, damnit.
Has anyone ever been able to destroy all the flames before winning the fight? I wonder what happens...
