@adrienachilles No, Ruby is supposed to be Jade, hence why she helps Jax in the end. If she was based on Tanya then she wouldn't have betrayed Shao Kahn at all.
@HyperGnomeXD ...Because Ed Boon and John Tobias (The creators of the 'Mortal Kombat' series) didn't have much of anything to do with this cartoon--It was made by the same people behind the Mortal Kombat movies, Threshold Entertainment. Boon and Tobias based Tanya off of Ruby in this cartoon after the fact...
Scorpion isn't an ice ninja, he's a fucking hell-spawned demon-spectre, WTF!?
To mikekilla85: ZOMG, that's so sweet! *T.T* Yeah, Sub-Zero needs a love, and it's up to me and my MK Mary Sue to serve that purpose!! Ha-ha....Wish fulfillment. XDD
damn they made sub zero,ermac,smoke,cyrax,sector,scorpion and rain all lame. They don't use their power correctly expect for sub zero and scorpion. The others never use their powers or they make some fake shit. and man they made rain into such a wuss. He has power over the rain and thunder and lighting just like in the game. Ermac is suppose to used telekinesis and he suppose to dead body with a bunch souls in it. They messed up big time.
...Ruby is a combination of Jade and Tanya. She is like Jade in that her and Kitana were old friends, yet she is like (Or rather, Midway's inspiration for)Tanya due to her betraying her realm, and reasoning that she 'Chose not to be on the losing side.'
She is based on Jade, Jade did betray Kitana and faught alongside Shao Khan just as Kitana did once. After Kitana learned the truth thats when she switched sides. Eventually Jade did return to Kitana's side. I'm guessing they couldn't use "jade" so used "ruby" another stone with a feminine name instead. Tonya was never kitana's bestfriend!
@Jasonisthedon ...That's...What I've been saying this entire time.
And show me where I said Tanya was Kitana's best friend? I said that Ruby was based on Jade AND Tanya for DIFFERENT REASONS--Jade--Close friend of Kitana, and Tanya--Betrayal of Kitana. You completely misunderstood and misread what I said and was trying to make a point that was already made...
No you said "Ruby was a combination of jade and Tanya" I'm just pointing out that she isn't she is a complete clone of Jade renamed ruby! I'm not trying to argue I just was making a point that she wasn't a combination. Also, most of Khan's army are with him because "they don't want to be on the losing team" AKA killed for rebelling against him. Thats why Shang tsung and Quan chi and everyone else faught on his side. Thats not a good reason for saying she is part Tanya cause she said that.
@Jasonisthedon ...And once again, you're not making sense, yet trying to make a point. Ruby isn't a 'Complete Clone of Jade renamed Ruby' because Jade has never betrayed Kitana (Or, by extension, Edenia, which is what Tanya did). The whole point of me saying Ruby is a combination of Jade and Tanya is what I've pointed out NUMEROUS times.
In addition, Boon and Tobias based Tanya off of Ruby; her betrayal, skin tone, and the 'Losing Team' quote are all hallmarks of Tanya's character...
"Jade has never betrayed Kitana" get a life! She was one of the Assasins sent to capture Kitana. You are the one who makes no sense. and if you want to get technical Tanya served Shinnok not Khan.
@Jasonisthedon ...You're telling me to 'Get a life,' yet you're the one who sought my original comment out, replied numerous times, and on top of that, don't even know what the fuck you're talking about?
LMAO
You're the one who needs to 'Get a Life.' As for Jade, are you retarded? Yeah, Jade and Reptile were sent to apprehend Kitana, but she joined Kitana/Turned against Kahn. Why do you think she's Kitana's General now?
Duh.
And the Tanya comment is, again, so stupid I won't even respond.
How can you not see the betrayal in Jade going against the forces of good and seeking out Kitana to capture her. A blind person could see that. I stated, Eventually Jade returned to Kitana's side right after Kitana faught reptile and was weakened. Jade had her chance but instead helped her escape just as Ruby did here when they were weakened! Jade is her general because she redeemed herself and proved a worthy ally. Tanya was apart of the shinnok era not Khan.
@Jasonisthedon ...So now you're saying that Ruby is ONLY based on Jade solely because she 'betrayed' Kitana when she stayed w/Kahn after Kitana rebelled and escaped?
That may be somewhat true, but you're still wrong for the simple fact that THERE WAS NEVER ANY ANIMOSITY between Kitana and Jade like there was between Kitana and Ruby (i.e. No one was called or considered a 'Traitor').
If anything, according to your 'logic,' Kitana would be the traitor, not Jade, which still makes you wrong.
Edenia(outworld) rightfully belongs to Kitana. Khan took it by killing her father and adopting her. Therefore, Kitana could not be a traitor if it belongs to her in the first place. Kitana and Jade both learned this but Jade helped Khan not Kitana, thats the betrayal! Ruby's skin color, cunningness, being Kitana's Close friend, helping Khan defeat the earth warriors, and deciding to help Kitana in her time of need is why I say she is a clone of Jade. Not to mention the names are similar.
@Jasonisthedon ...Kitana's Background Story is common knowledge to even casual MK fans, so that was unnecessary to repeat.
As for the 'Skin color' and 'Cunningness' you mentioned, those are traits that BOTH Jade and Tanya share (Moreso Tanya, since Jade looks simply Tanned), which brings us back to what I said in the first place: Ruby is a combination of Jade and Tanya (Though moreso an inspiration for Tanya, since Boon & Tobias took the template for Ruby and made Tanya).
Since her story is common knowledge why feel it neccessary to say by my logic Kitana is a traitor. i'm talking about the full package not 2 traits they both happen to possess. Jade "cunningness" is based on sex appeal not blatant lies like Tanya. Which is what Ruby used to seduce Jax. Tanya simply lies. Jade is clearly dark skinned not tanned. 10/10 traits ruby displays Jade does also. Not just being dark skinned and deceitful.
@Jasonisthedon Jade's 'Cunningness' is her entire character--She's a Ninja (Obviously)/Assassin, Spy, and Army General. John Vogel, the Lead Artist (If I'm not mistaken) since Tobias' departure even said that Jade was a Spy/'James Bond-like character' on the MK Deception Bonus Disc. Therefore, Jade's 'Cunningness' isn't based on sex appeal. And since you brought it up trying to make a point, both character's exude sex appeal; Tanya's MK4 Ending is a clear example of this.
in Tanya's MK4 ending the only reason Lui Kang followed her is because she LIED and said Kitana was there or something. I don't remember the ending exactly but it had nothing to do with her sex appeal. As opposed to Jade's ending which is all about sex appeal. Also in mk2 where her and Kitana debuted. It was stated her "beauty and skill" made her a deadly opponent. I never seen anything about Tanya's beauty. We can agree to disagree. My perspective Ruby is Jade.
@Jasonisthedon None of Jade's 3 endings exude any kind of 'Sex Appeal.' If you're referring to her Deception ending, there's nothing sexy about feigning capture by, then throwing TARKATAN Essence on, Tanya.
And nearly all MK females (With the exception of Ashrah, Kira, Sheeva, & Sindel) are portrayed as beautiful, skilled, and sexy (i.e. pandering to MK's primary audience). Where exactly was any background information on Jade stated before UMK3, because I've never read that about her...
@pirate772009 I have played it. She doesn't have any sort of accent, and I certainly don't think she's black, but her ethnicity can't be pinpointed, since she's Edenian. I personally think she looks Middle Eastern, but since she lives in a fictional planet, there are several factors that are missing. Ex, since they descend from Gods, do other races exist in their world? How much does their equivalent of a sun play a factor? Is she any of the other character's Edenian ethnicity? you got the idea.
@pirate772009 Yeah. I saw the first half-hour of that movie and wanted to gouge my eyes out. There really is no right answer I guess. But there are certainly many heated and overly serious conversations about it online. They're kind of entertaining to read, actually :)
@Tlokienfan well if you look at MK and MK2 most of the character designs are based off of Middle eastern Asian, just look at the outfits for kitana,mileena,mk2 shang tsung. or kabal. and even the san desert levels. this are all based off of middle eastern asian designs and looks. mid east is asian as well! and many of the mk characters had tans like middle easterns!
Ruby has more similarites to Tanya than anyone. Jade doesn't betray anyone, but Tanya betrays more people in the entire Kombat universe than even Kano and Shang Tsung combined.
how the fuck do u not now ermac hes like the coolst mortal kombat character exept in this show they make him sound and look like a gay french man wen really ermac is a warrior composed of souls since this b4 they made him that he sould b a do without qustion WICKED STRONG warriormage not a gay french men
ermac also was a by mistake charicter in the first mortal kombat game a bug was a erorr that made a red ninja and his name was ermac 5 ermac stands for erorr macro
Friggin worst show ever. The voice actors didn't make sense. Subby sounded like a little girl. Liu kang sounds like a surfer. And wth is Nightwolf a frickin computer genius??!?
WTH? How did Jax all of a sudden have his Metal Arms? When he was chained up in Part 1, he didn't have them. lol
Nah, liquidzero5--Ruby is much more like Tanya than Jade. This is evidenced by her dark skin, her betrayal of her realm, and her comment to Kitana during their fight that she "(Ruby)Simply chose to be on the winning side (Shao Kahn's)." All of this is exactly like Tanya in the games.
You could even theorize that Ruby was the inspiration for Tanya.
That was funny! Jax and Sonya at the end and then the black and white horse start rubbing up against each other, I guess signifying Jax and Sonya's relationship.
Jade didn't betray Kitana in any 'version' of the series--The closest possibility is Jade's appearance in MK Annihilation, and even then, no relationship between her and Kitana is ever stated.
...And this Ruby chick is reminding me even more of Tanya, especially during her fight with Kitana and what she tells her. The only difference is that Ruby actally had a change of heart. This episode definitely could've inspired Midway to create Tanya, though...
Kitana, Jade, and Mileena all served Shao Kahn during that time (MK2)--Therefore, Jade wasn't a traitor. If anything, Kitana would be considered the 'traitor,' due to her secretly plotting against Kahn.
However, some people may use the argument about Jade being sent to hunt Kitana down in the MK3-Trilogy 'series' as a possible sign of betrayal, but Jade does eventually side with Kitana, so really, they never betrayed each other...
Well, you are right. Jade betrayed Shao Kahn by siding with Kitana. She defeated Reptile and with Kitana they defeated Sheeva to reach Sindel which led to her return to Outworld and discovery of Shokan's punishment at the hands of Shao Kahn.
what the hell are you talking about? Have you even played UMK3? Jade and Kitana were the closest of childhood friends. Then Kitana became a rebel against Kahn, Jade joined Kahn, teamed up with Reptile to hunt Kitana, then turned on Reptile to help Kitana once again.
Oh, and btw, in Deception, Jade joins up with Sindel not only to take out Tanya, but because her best friend was in danger.
ruby? RUBY?, oh come on!, that could so easily be tanya, she's black, she's a person from outworld who betrayed kitana and works for shao khan? they could have added in so many actual characters but they insist on making up new ones! WHY???
deffo dude, I thought the same thing- all these random characters can be jarring as well- I mean ok... they forgot: Mileena, Tanya, maybe even Jade, Johnny Cage *somehow*, Kung Lao, etc... *-) instead they make Stryker a priority :S
@jaiho88 This show predates MK4 so Tanya wasn't created yet. I was disappointed that Johnny Cage, Kung Lao, Sindel, Mileena and Jade did not make an appearance. My guess is that they were hoping to have a second season and could introduce them then.
I don't think they created Tanya when this was made. Also I don't think shes black, but she aint white either. Though it is pretty amazing that they didn't make it Jade though.
except Jade was the one who basically had this storyline (except replace Ermac with Reptile, and get rid of that Jax relationship). Tanya wasn't even made yet... and even then, she never turned back to the good side. She was always a straight up traitor to Edenia. JADE at least rejoined with Kitana after fighting for Kahn.
Well yeah, I know all of that. I was just saying that, due to the (glaring) similarities between Ruby and Jade & Tanya, that it's not too farfetched to assume that Ruby was an inspiration for Midway to create Tanya...
Ed Boon was really close to this shows production, but Ruby has far more similarities to Jade. I mean hell, they're names are even valuable gems...well...a gem and a metal, but still.
@gonksmack This predates Tanya's appearance in MK4. Boon probably used Ruby as a template to make Tanya in 4. They used Jade's MK3 story where she [and Reptile] are to hunt down Kitana. It wasn't until her ending that she turned on Kahn to side with Kitana.

Ruby has more similarites to Tanya than anyone. Jade doesn't betray anyone, but Tanya betrays more people in the entire Kombat universe than even Kano and Shang Tsung combined.

ruby is like jade in mk3, but I KNOW MOVIE AND GAMES STORY LINES ARE SEPERATE AND NOT THE SAME!
liquidzero5 4 years ago
WTH? How did Jax all of a sudden have his Metal Arms? When he was chained up in Part 1, he didn't have them. lol
Nah, liquidzero5--Ruby is much more like Tanya than Jade. This is evidenced by her dark skin, her betrayal of her realm, and her comment to Kitana during their fight that she "(Ruby)Simply chose to be on the winning side (Shao Kahn's)." All of this is exactly like Tanya in the games.
You could even theorize that Ruby was the inspiration for Tanya.

That was funny! Jax and Sonya at the end and then the black and white horse start rubbing up against each other, I guess signifying Jax and Sonya's relationship.

A lot of people betrayed Kitana... Jade, Tanya, Ruby, Qali... the list goes on and on.
Dmr2hn1 5 years ago
What does that say about Kitana? lol!
suryavajra 5 years ago
Jade didn't betray Kitana in any 'version' of the series--The closest possibility is Jade's appearance in MK Annihilation, and even then, no relationship between her and Kitana is ever stated.
...And this Ruby chick is reminding me even more of Tanya, especially during her fight with Kitana and what she tells her. The only difference is that Ruby actally had a change of heart. This episode definitely could've inspired Midway to create Tanya, though...
Entropy161 5 years ago
But Jade served Shao Kahn through MK2. Isn't that betraying Kitana?
Dmr2hn1 5 years ago
Kitana, Jade, and Mileena all served Shao Kahn during that time (MK2)--Therefore, Jade wasn't a traitor. If anything, Kitana would be considered the 'traitor,' due to her secretly plotting against Kahn.
However, some people may use the argument about Jade being sent to hunt Kitana down in the MK3-Trilogy 'series' as a possible sign of betrayal, but Jade does eventually side with Kitana, so really, they never betrayed each other...
Entropy161 5 years ago
Well, you are right. Jade betrayed Shao Kahn by siding with Kitana. She defeated Reptile and with Kitana they defeated Sheeva to reach Sindel which led to her return to Outworld and discovery of Shokan's punishment at the hands of Shao Kahn.
Dmr2hn1 5 years ago
what the hell are you talking about? Have you even played UMK3? Jade and Kitana were the closest of childhood friends. Then Kitana became a rebel against Kahn, Jade joined Kahn, teamed up with Reptile to hunt Kitana, then turned on Reptile to help Kitana once again.
Oh, and btw, in Deception, Jade joins up with Sindel not only to take out Tanya, but because her best friend was in danger.

ruby? RUBY?, oh come on!, that could so easily be tanya, she's black, she's a person from outworld who betrayed kitana and works for shao khan? they could have added in so many actual characters but they insist on making up new ones! WHY???
still its a great show.

Nathriel 5 years ago
deffo dude, I thought the same thing- all these random characters can be jarring as well- I mean ok... they forgot: Mileena, Tanya, maybe even Jade, Johnny Cage *somehow*, Kung Lao, etc... *-) instead they make Stryker a priority :S
jaiho88 5 years ago
@jaiho88 This show predates MK4 so Tanya wasn't created yet. I was disappointed that Johnny Cage, Kung Lao, Sindel, Mileena and Jade did not make an appearance. My guess is that they were hoping to have a second season and could introduce them then.
IrishKyokushin 1 year ago
I don't think they created Tanya when this was made. Also I don't think shes black, but she aint white either. Though it is pretty amazing that they didn't make it Jade though.
Agent47rulz 5 years ago
except Jade was the one who basically had this storyline (except replace Ermac with Reptile, and get rid of that Jax relationship). Tanya wasn't even made yet... and even then, she never turned back to the good side. She was always a straight up traitor to Edenia. JADE at least rejoined with Kitana after fighting for Kahn.
Shaanyboi 4 years ago
Well yeah, I know all of that. I was just saying that, due to the (glaring) similarities between Ruby and Jade & Tanya, that it's not too farfetched to assume that Ruby was an inspiration for Midway to create Tanya...
Entropy161 4 years ago
...I also love how Ruby looks and sounds like Halle Berry. Hillarious...
Entropy161 4 years ago
maybe
Ed Boon was really close to this shows production, but Ruby has far more similarities to Jade. I mean hell, they're names are even valuable gems...well...a gem and a metal, but still.
Shaanyboi 4 years ago
@gonksmack This predates Tanya's appearance in MK4. Boon probably used Ruby as a template to make Tanya in 4. They used Jade's MK3 story where she [and Reptile] are to hunt down Kitana. It wasn't until her ending that she turned on Kahn to side with Kitana.

Sonya and Jax like each other in this series it's all to obvious! And I like it! I don't like Johny Cage anyway
WWEASS 5 years ago
Well Sonya and Jax have always been close friends anyway. So not really in love, jut very "close" friends I'd say.
DriedGooshies 5 years ago
Well since Johnny Cage isn't in this show, they made Sonya secretly in love with Jax.
