He's too much of a gentleman to have a one night stand with the Prez's daughter, too busy and always traveling to make her his steady girlfriend. Poor guy just can never catch a break. In between a rock and a hard place, with lots of hand lotion.
I just can't understand his hair color. Sometimes it's light brown. Sometimes it's dark brown and sometimes it's blonde. He dyes it? Nothing wrong with that, but makes one wonder what his natural hair color is.
@@pearljaime2 well, it seems like they can't decide whether Leon is a blonde or a light brunette. My guess is that he has dirty blonde hair. Either way, it's very common for blonde hair to change as you grow, getting darker.
Yeah, she's supposed to be 20 in the original RE4, but she acted and looked more like she was 16 or something. Granted, I'm not one of those outrage-chasers who thinks that's automatically skeevy or problematic, god forbid when I'M certainly a woman who naturally looks and acts ten years younger than she is. But I have to say, this is an improvement, especially since they kept the "balistics." I was worried, but then I saw her without the jacket and felt a sense of relief.
@@earl_Feather Hoo boy. That's a big question that doesn't have a small answer. If I had to sum it up as quickly as I could, I consider giving female characters in video games breast reductions (like Crystal Dynamics did to Lara Croft) to be ill-conceived attempts to un-sexualize fictional characters that instead just body shames IRL busty women. Chock it up to my history as a bisexual girl who loves big booba, has had lots of fun discussing anime/video game tiddy with guy-friends who also love big booba, and is flat-as-a-board but has coincidentally never dated a girl who wasn't smaller than a D-cup.
THANK YOU 🤝 The emotional intelligence, acting, and writing were TOP notch in the Remake. Down to littlest things that still said SO much. Prime example: Luis, in answering Leon, winces as he replies, “… Because it makes me feel BETTER.. Let’s leave it at that,” delivered with the look he has on his face. Not, “It makes me feel GOOD,” but, “better.” We can feel SO much back story in that line, how guilty, empathetic, and tormented he is about (what I imagine mostly unwittingly) giving birth to the NE-a Type Parasite, thus The Lisa Trevor & Nemesis Projects. And, I say unwitting because we know until Luis was replaced as the head researcher in Illuminados he was the one finding ways to get the plaga OUT of people. It wouldn’t shock me if Umbrella said, “Yeah! We need to develop this really hard to remove parasite that’s super effect at taking over its host. If we can engineer a parasite like that? We could also develop a cure that can handle not only that more dangerous parasite, but other less dangerous parasites like it in the world!” Think about how good he is at synthesizing a treatment for Las Plagas, and how fast he whips it up despite his now limited access and tool set. It’s one of those things where it’s not until you’re on the inside, and they’re like, “Come take a look at what your work gave birth to: this is Lisa Trevor, and since it’s going well? Phase two is this: meet this Mr. X style Tyrant that we’ll be giving the parasite that’s in Lisa Trevor. It’ll be the ULTIMATE weapon: the Nemesis Project.” You can feel the blood drain from Luis’ face. + Why else would he be on the run unless he bailed? If they’d have only made those changes (emotional intelligence, acting, and writing) then I would’ve been HERE for the remake, but god they gave me EVERYthing with this remake (even things I didn’t even know I needed: now that I have stealth kill Assassins Creed style + the ability to take cover + stealth around? All the other games feel broken 💀). Back to the emotional intelligence, acting, and writing? It’s even down to the littlest things with her: God, when Ashley gets too far from you the genuine guy wrench in her voice as pipes and squeaks out, “Don’t leave me!” Legit makes me frown SEVERELY and makes me feel sad. From there forward I avoided that at all cost. Everyone is a REAL person in this, and we feel we understand them so deeply. And it shows: from being forced to protect Ashley to the remake where she’s someone we want to protect (same goes for Luis 🥹😔).
Resident Evil has a history of that. In RE2, Sherry's 11-13 years old but acted like a 5 year old. In the remake, the developers made her ~7 years old, less naive and adorable.
I agree that New Ashley is way better however if I was kidnapped by an evil cult that injected a mind controlling worm into me and knowing it's slowly taking control, I would also be a crying baby as well.
At the end you can tell how Ashley's trying her hardest to bewitch Leon and dialing her flirtiness level up to 11. But cool as a cucumber he tries to keep it professional even though he likes her charming attitude 🙃
I thought that at first as well, but then as the video went on I realized that he was just setting some groundwork for the latter, more obvious flirting to show how it's a progression of Ashley developing feelings along the way.
seriously i don't understand how especially the scene at 1:22 is supposed to be flirtatious?? if any man on this planet actually considers that to be flirting i'm hopping off the nearest cliff like you cannot be that delusional
I have to agree. Granted, I didn't think there was anything wrong with Ashley in the original acting and looking younger than her age of 20. But comparing the two, I definitely see this Ashley as an improvement, like going from "good" to "great," ya know?

While there may still be feelings between Leon and Ada, I like that in the RE4 remake Leon is more realistic and focused on his mission of saving Ashley, not allowing himself to be manipulated by Ada a second time, even though she has helped him a lot.

I haven't been able to play the remake yet, but my friends who've played it tell me that while she's still a damsel in distress like you expect her to be (and like she rightly should be given the plot), she's more actively helpful and more of an equal partner with Leon during this adventure. Admittedly, I'm looking forward to seeing it, since the parts where you control Ashley were some of my favorites in the original RE4.
She can still be a nuisance if you fail to command her properly. Ashley was however never a bad character and most complaints people have seem to be a reflection of one’s own skills.
I think Capcom should come back with Ashley in RE9 as an agent. I can't believe they put in that line of her telling Leon she could be an agent in vain 3:52 or they could to replace Helena in a possible RE6 remake and put Ashley in her place. Helena was a very boring character.
They could make Helena be likable like they did with Ashley, since the devs are staying true to the original for the remakes, Helena will still be Leon’s partner, they aren't going to change that since Ashley can't be an agent anyways!
@@IssacDay it's not a probability to you that Ashely can be trained as an agent or summ? i mean, being the president's daughter she must Know at least self defense or summ

- couple of years in the future - Ada: so you don't like blondes? Leon: what? Ada: the president's daughter... She was flirting with you. Leon: SHE WAS???
Ashley: *Literally is the daughter of the president, she could provide Leon a stable wealthy life, he would not even have to work anymore* Ada: *Literally is an unreliable dangerous criminal, literally sticks a weapon up Leon's butt* Leon: *Still chooses Ada anyway* Cupid: *Is stupid* Love: *Is blind*
@Gid Gud Bro Bold of you to assume that she is human, not even Leon knows what she is even. However looks like that is exactly his plan: wait until she is retired so he can have a chance. 🤣🤣
@Gid Gud Bro I wonder how are they gonna remake Resident Evil 6 now since Leon still loved Ada enough to protect her from justice. I do not think Leon finally stopped being a dumb blonde for Ada, instead, I think that he finally learned how to "play hard to get", because he still did let Ada get away with anything that she wanted, if he did not still care about her, he very likely would have at least tried stopping her.
I wouldn't exactly call it desperately flirting, but she does subtly flirt with Leon several times. Especially when she suggests that they work as agents together, or that he be assigned to her personal detail. She clearly seems to have a desire to spend more time with him somehow, given those statements.
4:10 I thought in this scene Ashley was acting a little strange, like she knows something we don't. A Separate Ways DLC hasn't been announced yet but if there is one I think Ada might of come in and got Leon on the table and not Ashley. Ada might have also been the one to give her the map (the directions were written in red).
Ada saved her on the Verdugo fight when she is speaking to Wesker. Have you notice why Left Hand didnt combine with Salazar? Ada also said "She's lost no matter what."
No she don't. Remember that she's currently busy dealing with Saddler during this scene. And we all knew the outcome that she got captured right? Until Leon arrive & freed her in the final fight I do however, believe that Ada is the one that left behind the map. Somehow one way or another she's able to access the lab earlier (I mean she's the one that gave Leon the lab location) so it's kinda make sense.
1:10 I love this scene so much. I feel like Leon is speaking from his own experience, his heart you know. Like, he's scared as hell too, but he knows he have to do his job anyway. That's... kinda sad and, I don't know. I just love this man with my whole heart
@Sick Pencil That is him when he doesn't have his full memories restored by Tifa. Cloud real personality is more adorkable, he acts edgy because he is very socially awkward and inexperienced.
This is the only RE game I've played, and as far as I'm concerned, after the game ends, Leon gets hired as her personal body guard, he teaches her self defense, he trains her to become an agent, and they end up together, happily ever after
As much we Leon stans want to agree with you. As long as he simping for Ada he cannot be considered a sigma. Sigmas don't simp. But the ending shows he's choose mission priority over her. So he is still half way.
I'm a give a hot take I like Leon and Ashley a lot together in this game way more than I do Leon and Ada because Leon and Ashley have actual chemistry while Leon and Adan this game have zero chemistry so I wouldn't be mad if he ends up with Ashley in this new timeline
Someday in the future, Leon is gonna wake up remembering Ashley hugged him after his parasite was removed and then he’ll think “HOLY SHIT, SHE WAS FLIRTING WITH ME THE WHOLE TIME!”😂😂
I don't know what it is with this girl, I had a genuine crush on her in the original and it didn't change in the remake. Probably also helped that she's REALLY well written in the new one.
I do like the new Ashley, but i have mixed feelings about some of the new dialogue writing and censorship of old lines. Why remove the line of Luis hitting on Ashely from the original?
@@zackfair6791 they talked about this at their panel at SacAnime (which is now viewable on TH-cam). Apparently Andre Pena tried to do the original line but he couldn't "pull it off".
You can't blame her. I mean, that agent Kennedy is prettier than every girlfriend I ever had. He is prettier than my sisters. He is probably prettier than the daughters I'll have someday. And behind all the looks, he is smart, gentle and manly as fuk.
Thing is, this game really did make me a shipper of Leon and Ashley, but that comes with the concession that they would absolutely have to play the long game to get there. Between Leon not being in a mental or professional state to even handle dating and him being so focused on her being his junior, he's just not where someone should be in their life to be serious about their dating life. That said, the game didn't outright confirm nothing could happen when he turned down her request at the end, since Ashley could still put the word in anyway or the President goes full father mode and assigns Leon to Ashley since he knows Leon can protect her.
I don’t wanna go on a tangent abt why they are genuinely a good duo but i totally am. This change in Ashley’s character is so much more respectful and soft. The original ashley paints her to be the stereotypical rich girl who tries to remain independent. This version of Ashley still considers others including herself but instead of wanting to be independent, it is more so she doesn’t want to be burdensome. She felt guilt and remorse for Luis, she didnt want Leon getting hurt for her, she considered Ada’s stance with Leon and what Ada was able to accomplish by encouraging her to take action. I know everyone hates the concept of princess-knight dynamic in video games, especially with how overdone it has been in the past, but this game shows the considerations of both Leon and Ashley. Leon didn’t just see this mission as a mission. He saw this as a way to change how the conclusion to Raccoon City ended with. He wanted an excuse to escape what ended up happening to him in the 6th game. In the first game, Leon had the choice to look at Ashley’s photo even though she’s very well known and easy to point out in a foreign country, but he chooses to. He conditioned himself to see her as not just a priority but a person. A person who could consider him a hero that wouldn’t make him reflect on his trauma from 1998. It hurts me to see the way people see this as a duo/couple. The two are obviously in different yet similar crisis situations of their life, and yet they both manage to use one another to distract themselves and keep faith. Sometimes I wonder if Leon didn’t become a violent alcoholic in the 6th game if he took the offer to be Ashley’s security. He would have more reasons to not throw his life into alcohol and have someone as kind and considerate and bright as the sunshine, like Ashley, by his side. And Ashley would have more reasons to feel protected as well as connected to someone as strong and confident and caring as Leon by her side
You should try that wrecking ball scene. Leon catches Ashley from the very high container. She says different flirt words when you try it each different time.
Here me out, I would love CAPCOM to remake RE5 to complete the remake trilogy. While pursuring the development of RE9 i wanted them to consider 'remade' the whole RE6 story focusing on Ada backstory, remove Helena and replace with Ashley. Jake has no place in the story, please feature Sherry with Claire instead. Tie the story which is linked with RE7-9 so you can complete the 9 series of RE. Then you can move forward, i love to see the next gen of RE series after completion of 9 original story.
At the end Ashley's holding on to the sides of the jet ski when she totally could have wrapped her arms around Leon's midsection and laid her head against his shoulder
Ah okay 😆 I'm autistic so I sometimes struggle with reading body language. If you don't mind, could you please explain what it is about her posture that says 'kiss me' rather than 'I'm just leaning against this fence to take some of the weight off my feet.'
@@cyborgsofuranus5382 Well for one thing, her being backed up to the edge of the platform means she isn't giving herself a "way out". For another, the posture of her arms is fairly open. This all says that she feels safe with Leon. That's pretty much all you need to know as far as the body language goes. As for the verbal language, she's talking about her and Leon doing things together in the future, as if she's expecting something. When he changes the subject she says "you're no fun", like she didn't get what she was expecting. One of the best pieces of dating advice I ever heard was "if you feel like you can kiss her, you could have kissed her ten minutes ago."
I find it funny how in the OG scene of her asking him on the jet ski if he wants to be apart of her detail she says "When we get back do you wanna work over time?"
Most of these aren't even flirting, Ashley is very very cute in this remake but most of the time she is mostly worried about her own wellbeing and the only other person willing to protect her.
Idk why she think she got a shot after seeing Ada... especially the Post Ada did while on the helicopter. Whoever animated that scene knew exactly what the players wanted to see.
Leon in that thumbnail is looking like "She looks good and easy so after this I'll see if she's really down for the get down". 😂.
He caught a peek as she looked at the explosions in the distance. Then he started thinking about him exploding later that day.
You mean her?
No way f**
"Luis was right, President Graham did equipped her with ballistics"
she has her ballistics in the thumbnail
7 years later
Leon wakes up frantically in the middle of the night yelling: "SHE WAS FLIRTING WITH ME"
"Doc, I need you to send me back in time ASAP!"
"Why is that?"
"national security"
That is the EXACT oblivious life I lead. Damn, put er there Leon 🤝

Leon: SHE WAS???
Perfect. 7 minutes is all I can spare to watch this video.
I understood that reference!
RE5 reference
Remake 5, Albert.
I fucking love this reference
Damn, you are gonna miss that 48 seconds.
Every girl wants a piece of Leon
Even I want a piece of Leon!
The piece between Leon's legs
Every man too
I know I do😭💀
@@srmelancia3523 why are you GAY?!
Ashley: We're a team, right?"
Leon: I need to get you home safe first.
10 years later...
Leon: WAIT A FREAKING MINUTE.
Leon: She was FLIRTING, WASN'T SHE ? 🤯🤯😧🧐
Leon is high key rizzing up these chicks since RE2 remake. OG Leon was more subtle but Remake Leon is smooth
Remake Leon got that rizz buff
"Ashley Desperately Flirting With Leon For 7 Minutes" and it's just at the start Leon comforting Ashley bc she's scared.. I- ya'll..
*Ashley sneezes*
Flirting.
Took Ashley 18 years to climb down a ladder
Ashley W
She did it eventually, well done Ashley 😉👍.
"I thought you were gonna die! *hug*"
"OK."
Ashley: *Literally is the daughter of the president, she could provide Leon a stable wealthy life, he would not even have to work anymore*
Ada: *Literally is an unreliable dangerous criminal, literally sticks a weapon up Leon's butt*
Leon: *Still chooses Ada anyway*
Cupid: *Is stupid*
Love: *Is blind*
@Gid Gud Bro
Leon, the good guy: *Aged like milk*
Ada, the bad b####: *Aged like whine*
@Gid Gud Bro
Bold of you to assume that she is human, not even Leon knows what she is even.
However looks like that is exactly his plan: wait until she is retired so he can have a chance. 🤣🤣
@Gid Gud Bro
I wonder how are they gonna remake Resident Evil 6 now since Leon still loved Ada enough to protect her from justice.
I do not think Leon finally stopped being a dumb blonde for Ada, instead, I think that he finally learned how to "play hard to get", because he still did let Ada get away with anything that she wanted, if he did not still care about her, he very likely would have at least tried stopping her.
@@ws16-19 yeah agree....I think Ada is gonna change and become different
Not to mention that aside from the "wealth" Ashley is a good girl.
Ashley: My parents arent home
Leon: Lets go find them
Chris: NO! LEOON! REMEMBER THE BLOODLINE!
Leon: NO WAY FAG
Everytime I see Leon helping someone or being a good person. It makes me think his mum is very proud of who she raised. A strong, and caring young man
His mother died when he was like a kid since his family was connected to crime
His mother raised him right before she died, @@lys3037.
@@lys3037yeah he was orphaned at a very young age
I wouldn't exactly call it desperately flirting, but she does subtly flirt with Leon several times. Especially when she suggests that they work as agents together, or that he be assigned to her personal detail. She clearly seems to have a desire to spend more time with him somehow, given those statements.
The thumbnail making it look like Leon's looking directly at Ashley's "ballistics"☠️
4:10 I thought in this scene Ashley was acting a little strange, like she knows something we don't. A Separate Ways DLC hasn't been announced yet but if there is one I think Ada might of come in and got Leon on the table and not Ashley. Ada might have also been the one to give her the map (the directions were written in red).
i didn't think of that, she did act suspicious
Ada saved her on the Verdugo fight when she is speaking to Wesker. Have you notice why Left Hand didnt combine with Salazar?
Ada also said "She's lost no matter what."
No she don't. Remember that she's currently busy dealing with Saddler during this scene. And we all knew the outcome that she got captured right? Until Leon arrive & freed her in the final fight
I do however, believe that Ada is the one that left behind the map. Somehow one way or another she's able to access the lab earlier (I mean she's the one that gave Leon the lab location) so it's kinda make sense.
I think the map was Ada's but maybe she lost it or something? Then Ashley found it while trying to save Leon
Ada got captured by saddler on this scene, but im impressive how Ashley is strong enough to carry Leon to the bed 💀
So happy they improved the dialog between them a lot for the remake
OG Ashley: Who are Yoy?
Remake Ashley: I'm You, But not Annoying and actually helpful
1:10
I love this scene so much. I feel like Leon is speaking from his own experience, his heart you know. Like, he's scared as hell too, but he knows he have to do his job anyway. That's... kinda sad and, I don't know. I just love this man with my whole heart
ashley: youd look pretty dashing
leon: "begins RIPPING OFF THE ARMOR AND PUTTING IT ON"
Everybody was flirting with Leon in this game; Ashley, Ada, Krauser and I don’t blame them, he’s so handsome it hurts
So many people compare Leon's luck with women to Dante but he is more Cloud's category of chick magnet
Lucky? Falling in love for Ada Wong is like a tragedy.
@Sick Pencil That is him when he doesn't have his full memories restored by Tifa. Cloud real personality is more adorkable, he acts edgy because he is very socially awkward and inexperienced.
@@hamizanyunos1502exactly
“Too bad. I think you’d look pretty dashing.”
Do you now, Ashley 😏 🤭
“Is that a compliment?”
“Take it however you want.”
I’M SQUEALING
they be riding that jetski straight into the horizon without knowing how far is the next island. The jetski be havin' an unlimited gas 🤣
I imagine he probably called in a chopper or something
Not to be the "Acktualy" guy but they're on an isolated island and Leon and Ada went there using a motorboat so Leon knows the way back.
Ashley: why don't you and i put in some overtime
Leon: sorry im paid salary
"Seven minutes... Seven minutes is all I can spare to flirt with you"
-Ashley probably
Leon seems a bit tougher since Chris constantly asking him to continue Redfield bloodline.
That meme needs to die, its old. Come up with new material.
@@GameFap NWF
This is the only RE game I've played, and as far as I'm concerned, after the game ends, Leon gets hired as her personal body guard, he teaches her self defense, he trains her to become an agent, and they end up together, happily ever after
lmao this is my headcanon too. i don't care what kinda movie or game they tie in, this is what happened
god Ashley is so fkn cute i love her so much
Leon the ultimate sigma
no
indeed
As much we Leon stans want to agree with you. As long as he simping for Ada he cannot be considered a sigma. Sigmas don't simp. But the ending shows he's choose mission priority over her. So he is still half way.
@@kid9096 Wow, you took the words right out of my mouth, dude.
Leon is too good for that alpha beta shit
1:26 😢 I felt Ashley cryin, couldn't handle herself when she's in controlled, but she cant afford to lose him more 🥰.
2005 me: I fucking hate Ashley!
2023 me: I fucking NEED Ashley!
5:00 that smile bro. That smile is life.
Fr she's so cute it hurts
@@inkubator320did someone shot you?
@@Eggeeri did
@@shinloud.7392W
little girly has no chance as soon as she heard Ada's footstep....
I'm a give a hot take I like Leon and Ashley a lot together in this game way more than I do Leon and Ada because Leon and Ashley have actual chemistry while Leon and Adan this game have zero chemistry so I wouldn't be mad if he ends up with Ashley in this new timeline
the fact that, the lady couldn't reach leon after, I'm making my own fan fiction, leon hit
Someday in the future, Leon is gonna wake up remembering Ashley hugged him after his parasite was removed and then he’ll think “HOLY SHIT, SHE WAS FLIRTING WITH ME THE WHOLE TIME!”😂😂
I don't know what it is with this girl, I had a genuine crush on her in the original and it didn't change in the remake. Probably also helped that she's REALLY well written in the new one.
I do like the new Ashley, but i have mixed feelings about some of the new dialogue writing and censorship of old lines. Why remove the line of Luis hitting on Ashely from the original?
@@zackfair6791 Western tolerance. Capcom would be attacked by Twitboys and other social media because of "sexual harassment".
@@zackfair6791he wasn't flirting with Ashley,he made a comment about her body,2 different things.
@@zackfair6791 they talked about this at their panel at SacAnime (which is now viewable on TH-cam). Apparently Andre Pena tried to do the original line but he couldn't "pull it off".
She's sexy as fuck, who can blame you?
0:20 Yeah, "no way" he landed that softly.
2:31 in and I’ve heard no desperate flirting sir I have been deceived 🤣
I'd like to see a new RE with Ashley coming back for whatever reason (maybe secret agent like Sherry ?) but it's unlikely to happen :(
I want this so bad. Just give us a real reason to bring her back.
desperately? O_o lol you all reach, she was just being nice... the only time she did flirt with him was at the end
The Rizz is strong within Leon
Rizzident Evil 4
me missing hints, just to realize 3 years later:
Ashley: "Wanna sleep with me? "
Leon: "im not too tired at the moment"
Also leon five years later : "oh she was flirting with me?"
the way that leon ignored hunigun is so horrible he was like: shut the fuck up im driving
😂😂😂😂😂
You can't blame her. I mean, that agent Kennedy is prettier than every girlfriend I ever had. He is prettier than my sisters. He is probably prettier than the daughters I'll have someday. And behind all the looks, he is smart, gentle and manly as fuk.
5:17 This, they could have made Leon said "She is part of me that I couldnt let go"
@Gid Gud Bro right! And I need more leon ashley screen
@Gid Gud Bro "this time, it has to be different"
@@GiddygoodgidgudYou make a lot of good points. I’m obviously onboard with the Leon/Ashley train.
He not want answer to her bc he not want Ashley know between Ada and Leon. Just both know each other only.

-i thought you were gonna die...🥺🥺
-*Okay*
Oh my god her smile when Leon was cured, SHE NEEDS TO BE PROTECTED AT ALL COSTS
Ashley's father the president of the united states requested Leon to continue the Graham bloodline.
I enjoy the dynamic between them so much! Games these days really like to give you a nice female companion to keep you company and protect them huh.
They did remove the little flirt moments of Leon and Honnigan at the end *sad*
Leon 5 yrs later while chilling
"Wait a dang minute" ahh scene
I feel like he might’ve picked up on it and even indulged if he didn’t go through Raccoon City
Leon is chased by lovely girls but he only chases Ada.
Thing is, this game really did make me a shipper of Leon and Ashley, but that comes with the concession that they would absolutely have to play the long game to get there. Between Leon not being in a mental or professional state to even handle dating and him being so focused on her being his junior, he's just not where someone should be in their life to be serious about their dating life. That said, the game didn't outright confirm nothing could happen when he turned down her request at the end, since Ashley could still put the word in anyway or the President goes full father mode and assigns Leon to Ashley since he knows Leon can protect her.
I don’t wanna go on a tangent abt why they are genuinely a good duo but i totally am.
This change in Ashley’s character is so much more respectful and soft. The original ashley paints her to be the stereotypical rich girl who tries to remain independent. This version of Ashley still considers others including herself but instead of wanting to be independent, it is more so she doesn’t want to be burdensome. She felt guilt and remorse for Luis, she didnt want Leon getting hurt for her, she considered Ada’s stance with Leon and what Ada was able to accomplish by encouraging her to take action.
I know everyone hates the concept of princess-knight dynamic in video games, especially with how overdone it has been in the past, but this game shows the considerations of both Leon and Ashley.
Leon didn’t just see this mission as a mission. He saw this as a way to change how the conclusion to Raccoon City ended with. He wanted an excuse to escape what ended up happening to him in the 6th game.
In the first game, Leon had the choice to look at Ashley’s photo even though she’s very well known and easy to point out in a foreign country, but he chooses to. He conditioned himself to see her as not just a priority but a person. A person who could consider him a hero that wouldn’t make him reflect on his trauma from 1998.
It hurts me to see the way people see this as a duo/couple. The two are obviously in different yet similar crisis situations of their life, and yet they both manage to use one another to distract themselves and keep faith.
Sometimes I wonder if Leon didn’t become a violent alcoholic in the 6th game if he took the offer to be Ashley’s security. He would have more reasons to not throw his life into alcohol and have someone as kind and considerate and bright as the sunshine, like Ashley, by his side. And Ashley would have more reasons to feel protected as well as connected to someone as strong and confident and caring as Leon by her side
wow bro- totally a lot of paragraphs 😂 but im on board with you
Leon dodging hints from Ashley left, right and center.
You should try that wrecking ball scene. Leon catches Ashley from the very high container. She says different flirt words when you try it each different time.
Ashley: Leon I’m so wet
Leon: I have a few towels
I meann can you really blame Ashley tho?😫
Original: forced to protect Ashley
Renake:must protect Ashley 💀
Here me out, I would love CAPCOM to remake RE5 to complete the remake trilogy. While pursuring the development of RE9 i wanted them to consider 'remade' the whole RE6 story focusing on Ada backstory, remove Helena and replace with Ashley. Jake has no place in the story, please feature Sherry with Claire instead. Tie the story which is linked with RE7-9 so you can complete the 9 series of RE.
Then you can move forward, i love to see the next gen of RE series after completion of 9 original story.
And resident evil 6 too
At the end Ashley's holding on to the sides of the jet ski when she totally could have wrapped her arms around Leon's midsection and laid her head against his shoulder
3:45 Guys, take note: this is "I want you to kiss me" body language.
(I could smack Leon for not taking the shot.)
I legitimately don't know if you're being serious, and now you've made me question everything xD
@@cyborgsofuranus5382 100% serious.
Ah okay 😆 I'm autistic so I sometimes struggle with reading body language. If you don't mind, could you please explain what it is about her posture that says 'kiss me' rather than 'I'm just leaning against this fence to take some of the weight off my feet.'
@@cyborgsofuranus5382 Well for one thing, her being backed up to the edge of the platform means she isn't giving herself a "way out". For another, the posture of her arms is fairly open. This all says that she feels safe with Leon. That's pretty much all you need to know as far as the body language goes. As for the verbal language, she's talking about her and Leon doing things together in the future, as if she's expecting something. When he changes the subject she says "you're no fun", like she didn't get what she was expecting.
One of the best pieces of dating advice I ever heard was "if you feel like you can kiss her, you could have kissed her ten minutes ago."
That's good to know, and when you put it like that it makes a perfect sense. Thanks for taking the time to explain 😊
I find it funny how in the OG scene of her asking him on the jet ski if he wants to be apart of her detail she says "When we get back do you wanna work over time?"
You are the one he wants - Leon White,2023
i did fell in love remake ashley her personality so much better and sweeter
3:56
Yeah, protect US, that's what you whant for sure madam 😂
Most of these aren't even flirting, Ashley is very very cute in this remake but most of the time she is mostly worried about her own wellbeing and the only other person willing to protect her.
Leon is immune to Las Plagas because he's already caught yellow fever
Im just gonna say it. I hope they banged when they got back to the states. Cuz lets be honest, they BOTH needed it after that whole ordeal.
Idk why she think she got a shot after seeing Ada... especially the Post Ada did while on the helicopter. Whoever animated that scene knew exactly what the players wanted to see.
What do you mean by 'Post Ada'? and what do you mean by what the players wanted to see?
