"I'm too old for this shit."
Leon, you're...you're not...
"BACK IN MY DAY you had to stop moving before you could shoot anybody! And we liked it!"
Leon you're like 35 you're not old.
"MY LUMBEGO!!"
They should make him act old and frail in cutscenes and then the moment you can play him you’re just suplexing dudes again like it’s nothing with no explanation
Old men in Japanese media are super capable until the writers finally decide to reserve them as comedy relief.
My argument is based on guys on Joseph Joestar and most of the cast in Yakuza.
Leon came back because he heard rumors Grace had better hair than him.
(the rumors were true, my god, look at that hair, I am jealous of a videogame character)
Even as a kid I was like ????? Because I'm pretty sure he was younger than my parents when I first played. Frankly, I just headcanon him into his 50s. Like he should be.
