I love the timed attack method, basically pulled straight from Super Mario RPG. It helps keep you engaged during the battles, and Status effects actually matter in this. It had to be the first game I actually put a lot of status effects to good use.

To the guy who has trouble making friends...start meeting girls and be really nice to them.
