Kitō Aya(木藤 亜也), July 19, 1962 – May 23, 1988) was a Japanese soldier (umm... I mean girl) who wrote a diary about her personal experiences while suffering from spinocerebellar ataxia. She was diagnosed with this disease when she was 15 years old. Her diary, entitled 1 Litre no Namida (1リットルの涙 Ichi Rittoru no Namida?, lit. "1 Litre of Tears"), was first published in her native Japan on February 25, 1986, more than two years before her death at the age of 25. Kito had the incurable disease for 10 years and suffered both emotional and physical pain, which was subsequently stressful to her family as well. Her mother, Shioka Kito, convinced her to publicize her diary in order to give hope to others, since Aya had always wanted to be able to help others. Her diary was later adapted into a film (2004) and then later into a television drama series with Erika Sawajiri portraying her (2005).

Japanese: レベルアーマー
A mechanized armor suit developed and utilized by the Rebel Army. First featured in Metal Slug 3. The mecha will attack the player by firing its gun and claws on short range. One LV Armor is usable by the player. Unlike other Slugs, it starts with limited 200 rounds of Heavy Machine Gun. Thus it will need another weapon pickup. The LV Armor is relatively weak and still have design flaws, that a single grenade can destroy it, killing the operator.

The Old English Sheepdog (OES) is a large breed of dog that emerged in England from early types of herding dog. Obsolete names for the breed include Shepherd's Dog and bob-tailed sheep-dog. The nickname Bob-tail (or Bobtail) originates from how dogs of the breed traditionally had their tails docked. Old English Sheepdogs can grow very long coats with fur covering the face and eyes and do not shed unless brushed.
What if the Old English Sheepdog became mascot in Dulux ads due to similarities of its fur with a paintbrush or its smooth appearance just like the paint texture?

Have you noticed why Metal Slug 5 game over screen lacks of helmet on it? Perhaps the character and Ptolemaic Army soldiers alike do not wear such helmet?
