whatever do you mean?

Also this book made me realize how close Aya looks to Cloud. It's obvious since Parasite Eve famously spun off from FF7's development. And to tie this into Resident Evil, Kenichi Iwao was scenario writer for Resident Evil 1. When he joined Square, he told the interviewer he was a big fan of the Parasite Eve novel. Square then took their abortive FF7 draft idea of a New York city blond haired detective and combined it with the Parasite Eve liscense.

It's a WEIRD ass adaption since it's not an adaption of the novel, but a sequel that changes so much it might as well be an original title. Kenichi Iwao then went on to direct Parasite Eve 2 with a draft storyline of his Resident Evil 2 sequel idea. Which I think would have been a totally kick ass sequel idea.
