**Maria Slime** (マリア・スライム, *Maria Suraimu*?) is a Space Slime and was a top member of Drakken Joe's Organization.

## Appearance

In her true form, Maria is a tiny blue slime with large eyes and a small blob on the top of her head. In the anime, she is instead green.

Maria normally takes on a human form, which is a young human woman of average height with a curvy figure, green eyes, and long, dark purple hair, notably having a strand sticking up. Her attire consists of a black and pink, skin-tight shoulderless spacesuit with detached sleeves that are primarily black with white forearms and light pink bands between colors. She also wears and a white hairband with pink cross stripes.

## Personality

Maria is rather laid back and carefree, unlike Drakken's other subordinates, often casually licking on lollipops during meetings.
She is rather tough during her guard duty, blocking Spider's path with her leg, warning him not to disturb Drakken during a meeting, and telling him to come back later, though, she doesn't put much effort into stopping him. She does not tolerate people touching her, especially Spider, who she finds creepy.

She is a capable actor, being able to fool Sister into feeling sympathy for her while under the bot's captivity. Tricking her to let her guard down while Seth and Diego take over the Edens Zero and disable the Four Shining Stars.

## Synopsis

### Digitalis arc

Maria stands guard outside as Drakken has a "meeting" with a debtor, stopping Spider from passing when he comes to inform her boss about his run-in and humiliation against the crew of the Edens Zero and tells him to come back later. She retorts how creepy he is as usual and retracts her leg after he touches her. She lets him pass through, reminding him that Drakken is busy.

She enters the room after Murray is dragged away, noting how they have no choice but to find a new planet after the disaster on Guilst. She leans on the side of Drakken's seat during his meeting with Spider, remarking that she heard the name Edens Zero before and Drakken's assistant informs them that it is the Warship of the Demon King. She chuckles as her boss pokes fun at the fantasy story gimmick. Maria then watches as Drakken orders Seth to shoot Spider for dropping his name to the Edens Zero crew and coming here after being defeated. She tells the hacker about Seth's fast drawing speed that he doesn't realize that he's been shot and watches as his body falls to his side.

### Sun Jewel arc

Maria sits next to Drakken Joe on the couch as the Dark Alchemist had the Satellite Blaze hacked and taken control from Kurenai as an interest on her loan to him. After taking control of Sattelite Blaze, Maria asks if they're going to use it to find the Edens Zero, but is surprised when Drakken says that he's not after all the trouble to get it. However, she is told that they don't need to find it as, by coincidence, the ship is nearby. She is shown the ship and is surprised that it looks like that. She asks her boss how they're going to steal it, which he simply answers by hand-to-hand combat and that they're going in now.

Maria is later seen watching the Edens Zero through the window calmly telling her crewmates it is a hologram.

### Belial Gore arc

#### World No. 29

Maria, Seth, and Diego break into the Edens Zero after changing the Ether shields into gas and the ship's metal hull into paper. They exit their ship and she taunts the crew about Drakken's Alchemy breaking their ship. Maria answers Seth that they kill the crew when they find them and she is warned by Diego not to break anything that looks valuable.

After infiltrating the Edens Zero, Maria and her companions confronted Witch Regret and were defeated by her. Maria was taken captive for interrogation by Sister Ivry after Diego and Seth had initiated self-destruct. Under interrogation, Maria revealed her true form of a Space Slime and had a conversation with Sister Ivry who sympathizes with her.

When Diego and Seth, who faked their deaths earlier, managed to take over the Edens Zero from within, Maria returned to her human shape, took down Mosco Versa-0 and chided the bound Sister for being careless. She comments that Sister Ivry cannot move anymore due to Seth disabling the Four Shining Stars.

#### World No. 30

After infiltrating the Edens Zero, Maria and her companions were once again defeated by Witch Regret. But this time, Rebecca warned her fellow crewmates about their attempts to fool them with their defeat and take over the ship from within like in they did in World No. 29 and thwarted them, much to their shock.
