The character of the President is introduced and his deep friendship with Leon established in quick cut flashbacks in the same scene that begins as he is already shambling towards Leon moments before he's killed. Just amazing writing 
How many first families is Leon personal acquaintances with? He's chummy with whomever Ashley's dad was who was POTUS in 2004 as well as the zombie president in office during 2013. I guess he works for the Secret Service so he gets invited to all their barbecues
I love that to make sure audiences understood she was in fact the same Sherry from RE2 they made her have the exact same hairstyle as an adult as she did as an 8-year-old
Her personality and status as a super special agent gives me extreme Rebecca Chambers vibes
What always confused me about RE6 is how, when Sherry meets Leon, she's like, "oh! He saved me from Raccoon City!" But in the canon version of RE2... Claire did that. Sherry is found by and taken care of, by Claire. Not Leon. She barely has any kind of relationship with him.
And I don't get why. Because Leon... Kind of has zero personality. He's just a walking Twink haircut, that shoots guns.
Claire, in RE2, is looking for her brother. So we know she cares about family. So I makes sense that she finds, and takes care of Sherry, and gets wrapped up in the family drama of Sherry's abusive parents being the zombie scientists, etc. That's so much more interesting then "will Leon and Ada fuck?"
So why does RE canon, after 2, continue to sideline Claire's relationship with Sherry, in favor of Leon???
I mean, Leon does meet Sherry at the end of the Claire A/Leon B and they leave Raccoon City together. I assume they talked and got to know each other before Sherry was left with the appropriate authorities and that they kept in touch.
In the original RE4, he has plenty of personality. He's a snarky himbo. It's not a very deep personality, but it's there. Then in RE6 he's like a Tom Cruise character or something
I don't think Sherry is even brought up after 2 in any game besides 6. Technically Leon and Claire are at game appearance parity- Leon has 4 and 6, Claire has Code Veronica and Revelations 2
I suppose that's fair about Leon. But it's still Claire who she develops a relationship with, over the course of the game. I just wanna see more of that ¯_ (ツ) _/¯
They really did my girls dirty. Claire just gets side games, and Sherry only shows back up in RE6, and is referenced in some extraneous content. I think Claire is also in a few of the shitty RE movies?
But Sherry in RE6 is... Honestly really boring. She becomes a cop, and is just kinda the sidekick to an equally boring edglord.
It would've probably ended up looking exactly like Leon's and Sherry's interactions in 6
I think Code Veronica is a main game even if it doesn't really get treated that way these days. I still wanna see Capcom try to tackle all the goofy and dated shit in that game
Every Resident Evil main character is a cop, soldier or agent outside of Claire, Billy, Jake and Ethan so her chances to become one were pretty high. Also, Jake Muller is easily the lamest character in the franchise and it's painful how clearly Capcom thought he was cool
