Yuri Kozukata (不来方夕莉) is a character from the Fatal Frame series. She is the central protagonist of the fifth game in the series, Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water.
Origin
Yuri is the central protagonist of Maiden of Black Water, the fifth main entry in the Fatal Frame franchise. She's a 19-year-old woman who survived a car accident that killed her whole family; because of the accident, she developed a "Sixth Sense." This ability allows her to see ghosts. Throughout the game, she helps the other protagonists in solving strange cases around Mt. Hikami, a notoriously haunted location in the outskirts of Japan. Yuri is led to Mt. Hikami by her sixth sense and travels around the area and back, taking photographs of spirits with her Camera Obscura, a specialized camera that can take photographs and exorcise ghosts.
While the Camera Obscura's crosshair is based on the one that appears on the Wii U's GamePad or on the screen (depending on the set control scheme) and the ghostly wails are loosely based on the sound effects ghosts play when damaged in Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water, the grainy effects and inverted colors seem to only be referencing her home series's status as a camera-oriented horror game.
Interestingly, the image in the background image is taken from the game's prologue drop, specifically the image displayed before the drop begins.
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
As an Assist Trophy
| “ | The protagonist of the Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water game is now an assist trophy. If she gets you with her Camera Obscura you'll be paralyzed for a short time, so watch out! | ” |
| —Super Smash Blog, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Official Site | ||
Yuri appears as an Assist Trophy in Ultimate. When summoned, she says "なに？" (What?) and aims her Camera Obscura at fighters and takes a picture; the flash momentarily stuns any fighters caught within the Viewfinder, leaving them vulnerable, and inflicts them poison damage, even after she disappears. If a fighter is within the Viewfinder, they can avoid the Camera Obscura's effects by shielding during the camera flash. Yuri disappears after taking three photographs. She cannot appear on 3D Land, Big Blue, Brinstar, Corneria, Dream Land GB, Frigate Orpheon, Golden Plains, Midgar, Minecraft World, Mushroomy Kingdom, Mute City SNES, Onett, Pac-Land, Rainbow Cruise, Spiral Mountain, Venom, WarioWare, Inc., and Wii Fit Studio.
Spirit
Yuri appears as one of the game's collectible spirits. In her Spirit Battle, she appears as an Assist Trophy while Zelda acts as her puppet fighter.
Yuri also appears as a hostile Assist Trophy in the Spirit Battles for Reporter & Wrestler, where she fills in the role of the Reporter; Mio & Mayu Amakura, due to being from the Fatal Frame series; and Toy-Con VR Goggles, with her Camera Obscura's Viewfinder representing the goggles.

Trivia
- Yuri's appearance in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate marks the first time a character from the horror genre appears in some capacity outside of being a trophy.
- Yuri is the first Assist Trophy from a non-playable universe to hail from a game with a D (17+) rating from the CERO, an M (Mature) rating from the ESRB, and an 18+ rating from PEGI.
- Despite Maiden of Black Water receiving an English dub, Yuri is only voiced in Japanese in Ultimate, with her using recycled voice clips from the Japanese version of Maiden of Black Water.
- This makes her one of six characters to have a known English voice actor yet not be voiced in English in Ultimate, with the others being Mewtwo, Takamaru, Luminary, Cloud Strife, and Sephiroth.
- She is also one of the four Assist Trophies to speak Japanese in all versions of Ultimate, the others being Takamaru, Sablé Prince, and Akira.
- She is also the only one of those four to be female and unable to be defeated.
- Interestingly, both voice actors credited for providing the ghostly wails accompanying Yuri's attacks played a role in Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water but the wails themselves seem to be original.
- Yuri is the second major character to be wholly owned by Nintendo but to hail from a third-party universe, after Dr. Wright. In her case, Nintendo published Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water, but Fatal Frame as a franchise was created and is owned by Koei Tecmo. The reverse is true for Geno.
