I had a weird visual error, tied to (maybe) saving during an event. I saved at the beginning of an event with Aqua (I don't remember which, but it was one of the three middle events). After doing this, every time there was something that involved Kazuma alone (sleeping or working at the construction job, for example) there would quickly be a picture of Kazuma like he was going to say something, then just continue with whatever it was. It did NOT affect anything outside of a visual bug. Starting from an earlier save got rid of it. More just "uh...OK" than anything.
Either level 8 is too low or I need to find a better combo/better luck for the Bandits because they keep slaughtering me. I can get to the rescue OK but the getaway seems to create problems. Also, the rescued gal doesn't show up at all in the fights against the brigands, is that intentional? It would be useful if she were present to give out a potion to someone or to use offensive potions...
