How to unlock the 100 Back Attacks achievement in Blue Dragon - Definitive Guide
Pretty self-explanatory, just get 100 back attacks. This is easiest to do with enemies that run away from you. Also, you can flee and repeat on the same monster if you need to grind this out.

Just wait till a monster turns its back on you and rush to him and press X to get a back attack.
Rinse and repeat 100 times and you got it

Both other solutions here give a good way to grind out this achievement on its own. In my experience playing through the game, I noticed there's a shit load of grinding to get to levels, so I tried to simplify and make more efficient the methods in place.
When you are going for the max all character levels at 99 achievement, and you are most undoubtedly doing the "Golden Poo Snake" method of gaining over 1k xp per quick battle, you might as well knock this achievement off while you are at it.
The Golden Poo Snakes lunge quite a fair distandce towards you if you leave yourself idle before them for a split second or two. This leaves them extremely vulnerable to running around behind them and initiating an attack from behind. They even have a more simplistic attack where they just swing their weapon at you, leaving them vulnerable as well, but for a smaller window. I found that the initial boredom of levelling to 99 evaporated as I was working towards two (seven if you count shadow levels to 99) achievements at the same time. (Initial, because you'll have to initiate more than 100 battles if you want to max out your character levels.)
So this is my suggestion, kill two birds with one stone, and don't find yourself running around with stink on after you've beaten the game, trying to catch pathetic little creatures as they run away.

Good idea. I'm working on the Golden Poo grind now and this does make it a little more exciting.

Don't forget, you're also working on the 1000000 gold achievement, and the five max all classes, so what is that... 10 for classes, 1 for xp, 1 for gold, 1 for back attacks... 13 achievements.

Okay this is the first and best chance.
After you pull the chains near the end of disc 1 you eventually make it inside the flying ship. You start in the room with the elevator. Save first then go to the next room. Kill everyone in clockwise order. Which means you'll leave the last alarm enemy by the chest for last.
These creatures have a laser beam that catches you. When it spins away walk up and hit it. Then Flee, Zola has a high agilty so she usually has the best chance to flee. The creature is stuck up against the tresure chance so as long as you dont move, press x till you hit him in the back again. His pinned and now you can grind away by fleeing and hitting him for back attack. do this 100 times.
If you do not have the flee achievement you'll get it here too.
