Eri Kasamoto

Template:CharacterInfoboxEri Kasamoto (エリ・カサモト, Template:Furigana Template:Furigana Kasamoto Eri) is a character from the Metal Slug series of shoot'em up games. During the character select screen in the newest Metal Slug pachislot, she is given the logo "Eri Hell's Fireworks" with a caricature herself ready to pull down the lever for a pile of dynamite. Her nickname in the same game is "Bomber girl from Memphis".

She is voiced by Susanna Fera.

Story

Eri was an infant abandoned at a church entrance. Her name comes from the piece of paper clasped in her tiny hands. Once she figured out the ways of the world, she decided to leave the sanctuary of the church and taste the forbidden fruit of the real world. Little is known about her youth that point. Her invigorating, tom-boy personality and keen fighting sense helped her become leader of a gang of street kids. She was recruited for military service when her abilities caught the attention of the Intelligence Agency. As a top agent, who received a special education for the gifted in espionage, Eri made her name known in countless missions.

But Eri, sickened by the succession of assassinations and conspiracies that consumed her conscience, applied for transfer to the special forces squad, Sparrows. Such a request which would normally not have received a second thought was specially approved in light of her record and indispensable abilities. Eri subsequently assumed the post of demolitions expert in Sparrows. She took the nickname, "Memphis Bombshell," and demonstrated her advanced abilities by putting a premature end to Morden's second coup.

Like Tarma, she was in another mission at the time of Metal Slug 4.

Personality

She was once a lonesome girl before she joined Marco's unit. She apparently is brightening up since then. Eri is known for being crafty and an ace in pyrotechnics.

Fighting Style

She was trained in hand-to-hand combat by the military, and is an expert at pyrotechnics.
