Resident Evil Fans Come Up With Leon One-Liners For Other Series

Resident Evil Requiem By Kenneth Shepard Published March 12, 2026 | Comments (0) | 𝕏 Copied! © Capcom / Kotaku Resident Evil fans love Leon Kennedy for his good looks, constant aura farming, and his inability to stop cracking wise-ass one-liners during even the most dire of circumstances. The ex-cop loves a well-timed pun or quip as he’s wrecking shop while fighting through the horrors. He brings a bit of levity to games that can be terrifying, and we appreciate that. But what if he brought that same jarring whimsy to other series? That’s the thought experiment Resident Evil fans are working through right now. In Resident Evil Requiem, Leon is pretty much an unstoppable force, capable of parrying literal rockets with a swing of his hatchet. So what’s stopping him from being plopped into any other universe and leaving a path of destruction in his wake, all while making innocent passersby groan at his puns? Only Capcom not signing whatever contracts it would take to put Leon in these series. Here are a few of my favorites. “Not very Super if you ask me, just Saiyan” https://t.co/ik6RQcrHrY — RESIDENT EVIL (@REBiohazardNews) March 12, 2026 “Sorry Dino, but we don’t need another Crisis.” *backflips* https://t.co/thyoD9eybx pic.twitter.com/alNUJcE1dh — The Photoshop Guy (@Photoshop_Gy) March 12, 2026 if these two fought you JUST KNOW Leon would kick his ass and then say some dumb shit like "Playtime's over" pic.twitter.com/CGv2T8FsPR — phisnom 🧪⚠️ (@phisnom) March 11, 2026 “I’m flattered, but I don’t think we’re gonna click.” pic.twitter.com/IzFsFZP5Gd — RESIDENT EVIL (@REBiohazardNews) March 11, 2026 “This hill is awfully Silent” *does a backflip* https://t.co/paWviQzSVj — Tangle #1 Fan 🤍🩶🤍 (CROSSWORLDS ERA) (@OhnimusP3767) March 11, 2026 *Leon sees a clicker*Leon: "You don't seem like a fungi."*Proceeds to suplex*Leon: "But maybe you're starting to grow on me." https://t.co/SutxV50Nfb — Nerbit (@Nerbit_13098) March 11, 2026 Shoot the knees + roundhouse “I heard you’re hungry.

What, no original ideas?" *GKFKCIFMFKDKVK* "Sorry pal, but no one copies me." pic.twitter.com/h52NVInlBM — DMuted (@MutedNotSuited) March 12, 2026 See Resident Evil fans, this is certainly a more fun use of the internet than tearing one another apart over who Leon may or may not be married to. Follow Leon’s lead and choose joy over hate, or puns over entertaining freaks who think that Leon is married to Sherry.
