Line 41:
** The player character is mostly composed of two separate sprites (the upper and lower bodies) to make the action more fluid. Occasionally, the two sprites merge when jumping, making the character really squat.
** The Evil Spirit Incarnate's wings detach from its body when it readies its scythe.
* [[That One Boss]]:
* [[That One Boss]]: The bosses of stages 3 and 4 of Metal Slug 6 are MUCH more durable and nasty than the first two bosses were. Both take ridiculous amounts of punishment and have nigh-unavoidable attacks. Expect to use a lot of credits.
** Allen O'Neal from ''Metal Slug'' and ''Metal Slug 2/X''. Yeah, this guy is extremely hard to defeat if you don't know how to predict his attacks. He can shot with his Machine Gun and if you try to move to the other side he just use a grenade towards you!
** Holy fark, the robot. First: You're moving to your right, constantly, which means it feels awkward reaching around and shooting at the robot, NOT TO MENTION THE CONTROLS AUTOMATICALLY FACE YOU TO THE RIGHT IF YOU TRY TO JUMP TO THE RIGHT TO DODGE SOMETHING. This means it WILL take forever to kill it. Secondly: IT KEEPS ATTACKING, ALMOST NON-STOP. And all of them are constant, even with the obvious pattern, so you'll be killed repeatedly.
** Sol Dae Rokker from ''Metal Slug 3''. Its only weak point is the small red jewel in its forehead and due to the boss moving constantly it can be quite difficult to shoot. The boss also levitates way above the player, meaning that you can't harm it with grenades. Most of its attacks aren't a big deal, but That One Attack where it spreads a flurry of yellow beams in random patterns is a nightmare to dodge, specially after the boss is enraged.
*** The "vulcan fix" skill is very useful here (hold down the shooting button to keep shooting in a fixed direction). Also, don't even try to take your time in defeating it, or it WILL [[Turns Red|GET PISSED]] and keep swinging his electrified arms reducing the safe zone to a ridiculous minimum!
** The Sandmarine from ''Metal Slug 5''. While most of its attacks are easy to avoid, when it submerges/emerges it will fire a bomb volley and make hell literally rain upon you. You need extremely good reflexes to avoid the bomb spam and don't get cornered by this monster.

** Crablops round two in ''Metal Slug XX''. While ''7'' was kind enough to lend you a Slug Armor to fight the boss, in ''XX'', it was changed to a Slugnoid - the only Slug that undergoes literal battle damage and more than likely will end up useless after a few seconds of battle, forcing you to fight Crablops stark naked. With the head spamming fireballs, plasma beams and restricting your movement with rocks, and the legs decreasing your maneuverable space by lauching bombs and acid worms, prepare for a hard battle. And that's not even taking into account when you get to the lift and Crablops [[Turns Red]].
** [[SNK Boss]]: You can count the final boss in ''Metal Slug 3D'' as a [[Final-Exam Boss]] because there are no powerups to collect, and you need fully-loaded weapons in order to defeat it.
* [[Ugly Cute]]: The Mars People. They're adorable, in a weird sorta way.
