Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The number 108 is a significant number in Buddhism. It represents the number of temptations that humans face, which tie them to the Wheel of samsara. There are many religious elements related to this number — a bell is rung 108 times to bring in the New Year in Japan. It is the number of beads on a Buddhist o-juzu or rosary. A classic pilgrimage in Japan visits 108 temples. Also, it's 2 to the second power times 3 to the third power — obviously important.note But 2 and 3 are the first two prime numbers... wait, 23? Oh crap! Doubled, it becomes 216, which is "6 by 6 by 6". This number crops up frequently in anime, video games, and other media produced in Japan. Like the numbers 13 or 7 for Western culture, it is ascribed a mystical significance far outside the original definitions. It has no readily comparable analogue to a modern Western viewer, however, though lots of similarities with the Medieval or Renaissance use of the number 9, which was considered perfect, the trinity of trinities, square of the first "real" prime (2 didn't count, sometimes, because it is even), etc. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Nevertheless, as these examples will bear out, 108 does appear a disproportionate number of times in Western popular culture. It's not clear why: it's not a stereotypical "big" number one can easily use for exaggeration and/or laughs, and it's not terribly easy to remember, either. Perhaps 108 is simply an easy three-digit number for even the most tongue-tied actors to recite in English, since it has only five syllablesnote or as few as three syllables—"one-oh-eight" and contains almost no guttural consonant sounds - as well as being unusual enough that to most people it sounds unique enough to not come off as a cliché. You might know 108 from puzzles, though — in which case it's merely 12 x 9. Compare Four Is Death and its Western equivalent, the Number of the Beast; however, note that the number 108 is not always used in a negative sense as these other two examples generally are.

Bleach uses the motif several times. The manga had a Back Story arc with chapters numbered in negative numbers, starting with -108. While there weren't actually 108 flashback chapters, side chapters that take place before the start of the story receive a negative chapter number based on how long ago they were (and since the arc took place a century ago, it's natural that the number would be hgh). In Hueco Mundo, Uryu fights the Arrancar Iceringer, who can shoot up to 108 shots. In one of the first chapters Rukia tells Ichigo that the fake soul she's installed in his body was designed by 108 shinigami scientists. Too bad she grabbed the wrong package... Anime episode #214. In the fake origin story for Kon's being turned into Karakura-Riser, it was stated that he was an alien turned into a hero of justice by "Professor" Urahara. He could only return to his normal form by destroying the 108 hollows that killed Professor Urahara's daughter. |

At 13 minutes and 21 seconds into the 24th episode of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Gimmy exclaimed that 108 units of the creepy Buddhism inspired Anti-Spiral ships were destroyed. In addition, 13 minutes and 21 seconds totals up to 801 seconds, the reverse of 108. Right when he mentions this, everything starts going straight to hell as the enemy suddenly launches a massive counter assault. | |

Ninja Nonsense has a couple of 108 jokes: In the baseball episode, Onsokumaru splits the ball into a bunch of copies to make it impossible to catch, but Miyabi does the same with her glove and gets them all. (Yes, it actually takes 108 outs to finish four games. These are not smart characters.) In another episode, when Kaede's mom tells Onsokumaru to be careful of the knife she's holding, he says "Hey, hey, Paula. I'm the hundred and eighth president; your comments don't mean anything to me." No, her name's not Paula. |

In Bliss Stage, your character must make an exit either by dying for real at 7 Trauma... or in a slightly less deadly manner when you go over 108 points of Bliss. This is a deliberate use of the trope: Word of God says it's a deliberate reference to the 108 Buddhist temptations. He also intended to print only 108 copies of Ignition Stage, for the same reason. | |

While a majority of the Vaults in the Fallout universe had sinister ulterior motives resulting in plenty of terror, Fallout 3 notably included Vault 108, which was assigned an Overseer expected to die of cancer within 40 months with no directives for succession or assigning positions of power, and given a main power supply intended to malfunction 18 years before the Vault was to be opened, a backup power supply that was insufficient, an overstocked armory, and no entertainment recordings. It also had a cloning lab which churned out hostile clones that murdered non-cloned residents. It was definitely intended to be one of the more chaotic Vault experiments. The male player character of Fallout 4 is a veteran who served in the 108th Infantry Regiment during the Sino-American war. |

The Death Note manga was deliberately paced so as to have 108 chapters, which has led to some fan complaints about the resultant slow pace of the second arc. Similarly, Fullmetal Alchemist ended at chapter 108, but it was longer overall because each chapter is about twice as long as a chapter of Death Note (since FMA's chapters are published monthly, rather than weekly). |

In Muhyo and Roji Ebisu attempts do to "Maneuver 108", which involves surrounding the scene of a haunting with a "barrier" of spiritual-energy infused "needles". Unfortunately he runs out of energy before he can finish the barrier and decides to set it off anyway. At first it seems to work but it soon fails, causing Ebisu to be fired. It should be noted that Ebisu's ruthless, greedy, and ambitious (male) boss wears a miko-style outfit. | |

The Elder Scrolls uses it prominently with several variations. To note: 108 itself - A number commonly associated with Akatosh, the chief deity of the Nine Divines pantheon. 1+0+8 - Essentially 9, a recurring Arc Number for the series, usually expressed in the form of 1+8. There are 9 Divines in the Imperial religion, comprising 8 conventional gods and 1 human who became a god. There are traditionally 9 provinces in the Cyrodiilic Empire (Cyrodiil itself and 8 others), and 9 districts and principal cities in the provinces of Skyrim and Cyrodiil (both the capital plus 8 others). The Amulet of Kings has 8 small jewels and 1 large jewel. There are eight 'Towers' sustaining the barriers between the realms, and one 'zeroth stone' that is the origin of their power. Even the universe itself is said to be shaped like a wheel with 8 spokes, the '+1' being the solid line made when viewed on it's side. 1008 - the very first and longest lasting Dragon Break, a type Time Crash with Cosmic Retcon like effects associated with the aforementioned Akatosh, lasted precisely 1008 years. How could they tell how much time passed despite time being non-linear during that period? They used the cycles of Nirn's two moons, which are said to be the "flesh divinity" (i.e. the sundered, rotting corpse) of the dead creator god and was thus unaffected, to tell how much time had passed. 100008 - See also "O Aka! I beg you one hundred thousand and eight times!" from the Alduddaggas. |

Zoro from One Piece has an attack called 108 Pondo Hou. It translates to "108 Pound Cannon", but with the kanji used, it can mean "108 Phoenixes of Passion and Desire". This and several other attacks with similar names are ironic as he is an atheist. The number 108 appearing here is not "coincidental" or cosmic though, Zoro himself says when first executing the "36 Pound Cannon" with only one sword that it represents 36 earthly desires. It basically foreshadows the "108 Pound Cannon" since Zoro is THE 3 sword style swordsman. The fallen monk Urouge has a bounty of 108,000,000 Berries at the time of his introduction. |

Pokémon: Spiritomb is listed as number 108 in the Sinnoh Pokédex, weighs 108 kg, is said to have been formed by 108 spirits, and its base Defense and Special Defense are both 108. In Ruby and Sapphire, the Ghost Ship S.S. Cactus is found on Route 108. In the remakes, Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Spiritomb is found in the S.S. Cactus's replacement, Sea Mauville, still on Route 108. In Pokémon GO, the Field Research for Spiritomb has 108 all over — whether in 10s, 8s, or the full number. |

This is the weight Vicki Vale gives when being rescued by the Dark Knight in Batman (1989). Significant because she's lying (temptation?), which results in there being too much weight for the extension gun to lift them both so that Batman has to fall back to the ground so she can escape - and he gets shot in his (bulletproof) chest armor and is nearly killed as a result. | |

As mentioned above, Suikoden, loosely based on the classic Chinese novel Water Margin. Each game in the series contains 108 recruitable characters, counting the hero but not counting any Guest Star Party Members. Generally speaking, having all 108 in Suikoden leads to someone being able to survive certain death, or recovering from it somehow. |

In Ōkami, the extremely difficult to obtain string of beads is made up of 100 stray beads and 8 power orbs. Given the large amounts of Japanese symbolism in the game, this is unsurprising. Also, the bell on Orochi's back is said to ring 108 times, once for each desire (temptation?) of that year's human sacrifice. | |

In Shadow Hearts: Covenant, the Big Bad explicitly say that The Very Definitely Final Dungeon will toll the bell a 108 times before unleashing its power. Yuri and co. will always get there in time, even after exiting to do some sidequests for Infinity Plus One Weapons and Armours. | |

Muramasa: The Demon Blade has 108 collectible swords. Quite appropriate to the plot and bosses, also. And King Enma, the Lord of Hell, is stated to have 108 children, with Rajyaki being the youngest. | |

Touhou manga spin-off Inaba of the Moon, Inaba of the Earth once had a chapter where Reisen needed to borrow a book from Patchoulli for her master. Much to her horror, the "book" was actually comprised of 72 Heaven volumes and 36 Earth volumes, totalling to a whopping 108 volumes that Reisen needed to carry all the way back home. | |
