So they took Sonya's turmoil of being weary of never-ending battles and gave it to Jax? Did they just forget who they were writing for? "WHAT AM I WRITING FOOORRR?!?!"
It's actually his "conveniently placed portals" ability that does it. Even outworld's best warrior is powerless not to stumble backwards into convenient portals.
Jax grandfather would still be alive if he took his metal pills shame this show didnt have the same writers from batman the animated series to make this better
12:58: Oh it gets even worse for you Raiden, afterwords you become a mortal and spend the rest of your life with Liu Kang where he gets to rewrite the universe however he sees fit. But if he didn't lose a fight to Kronika you just go poof and he gets to live with Katana. Oh and Phelous, not only did you make a cartoon Siro but you also gave Shao Kahn a cartoon Reiko? That's just precious.
Intros: Paper crumple, swinging a sword that disappears when the match starts, his charge getting murdered in the background when he isn't paying attention Come on Netherrealm. We have bee people and had Takeda (Who is no more) now we need the greatest Mortal Kombat kharacter.
Meanwhile Kronika is watching this show and plotting to destroy another timeline. Given her powers, that's probably a good reason why this will never be continued.

My god, this show is just exasperating with how awful it is. I don't think I have ever seen a show where people cared so little as Defenders of the Realm.
@@TommyDeonauthsArchives It is the most phoned in, uninspired garbage excused by "it's for kids" I have ever seen. How could anyone who worked on this show be happy about it? Days of animating, hours of voice over work, minutes of writing all spent on... this...
Jeez, are all the good guys secretly pacifists, or does Raiden only recruit people with egos so fragile that they'll immediately give up when faced with the slightest obstacle?
Someone please post a video of Nightwolf clicking the computer with the others just staring at him for ten hours. It would be my new favorite video on UA-cam.
It took me ten minutes to stop laughing when it was revealed that Shao Khan was watching Jax too. I couldn't even pay attention to what he was saying at that point I was laughing so hard. I almost expected him to repeat Sonya's lines.
Konquest had a way cooler Finale and did'nt introduce a Antrho Bird,seriously I saw episode 13 today and there is a humanoid bird who dose not belong in Mortal Kombat
@@duncananderson2113 yeah, repltillians, (reptile) centaurs, (motaro) four armed tigers (kintaro) insects (dvorah) are fine, but a bird? thats just crossing the line
TBH I would also want to get away from the endless fighting: every day they get into fistfights with random enemies in random places with nothing at stake and achieve nothing. It must be horribly stressful and boring.
if you think about it, it's the best way for khan to win the tournament. just bore the humans to death between the tournament to weaken their resolve. it's brilliant.
Never thought I'd defend Defenders of the Realm, but after being shackled to the wall like that for any great length of time anyone would be in a pretty sorry state. Probably not the ten minutes or so of captivity that Jax had to put up with, admittedly...
"I can't be chained against the wall without my metal arms". Now that I think about it isn't Jax in special forces? You'd think torture training would've been given so he wouldn't crack immediately. Or has he been chained up for months while Nightwolf showed the Kombat Krew his fresh memes on his computer?
It's interesting they have a female Ermac named Ruby, considering there were rumors of this character existing in MK2 and 3 prior to this show existing. and she basically became canon, but with the name Skarlet.
The "metal dick" like killed me. I wasnt paying much attention (listening to this while working), and then that happened. Now I need to explain to my colleague why i just spat water everywhere... Thanks, Phelan, lol
yeah, I can totally see that. They have a super computer able to locate random stuff going on somewhere without proper typing so they can get there in their planes in no time but cannot get urgent personal messages trough? or phone calls? Smoke signals? being in time to funerals by plane?
Boy, this show is really headed for the toilet. Also, *RHONDA* *ROUSEY!!!* THE MOST KATY PERRY MORTAL KOMBAT VOICE ACTOR!!! Who do you think I was gonna say?
Sure Nightwolf, just sit there at the computer dinking around while one of your teammates and friends is having a emotional goodbye, don't try and take the mood seriously or anything.
To the show's credit (from what clips Phelous is using) the farewell for Jax is pretty well done. If this show was better written and didn't happen near the end of the season only to be undone it'd have more of an impact.
Here's a "Phelous Phun Phact" that wasn't mentioned. John Vernon is the voice of Shao Kahn on this show, EXCEPT for this episode where he's voiced by Michael Des Barres who voiced Kano.
One more episode to go! I'm going to miss all of the dramatic story telling. Like Night wolf being charged for stalking his peers, Stryker forcing Sonja to play nurse without pay, and Jax having to part with his true love, his Metal Arms.💪🏾🏋🏾♂️🤳🏾
Ah Phelous, once again your great videos and riffs on MK subject matter have saved me from another dull, long, work day. When everyone hears me laughing I always show them your MK videos. Thanks again for the great content.
Maybe Jax and Ruby made up and she's Jax's off-screen dead wife in X and 11, so Jaqci picked up the ninja gear from her mom. Also 11's ending sucked, I love when everything I do in a story doesn't actually matter.
You know, it would have made more sense of Ruby had allowed herself to be kidnapped, let Jax try to save her, and keep the con going while he was captured. That at least would have been a surprise reveal later on. So many shows feel they need to blow the big reveal because the audience is too stupid to figure things out later on, but it just makes things lose suspense. The recent Shanarra show did the same thing, ruining the surprise of the Changeling being the king’s dog. In the book, this was a huge reveal and a big character moment for the king to find out that his best friend, his dog, was a mortal enemy who had been secretly listening in to his every conversation.
Not gonna lie, I legit burst out laughing when it cut to Shao Kahn *also* being a creepy perv and checking out that Jax on Ruby action.
So they took Sonya's turmoil of being weary of never-ending battles and gave it to Jax? Did they just forget who they were writing for?
"WHAT AM I WRITING FOOORRR?!?!"
Same thing happened with *cough* Resident Evil Vendetta *cough* *cough* with Leon
Trevin Grayek “I should have been the one to fill your dark soul with liiiiiiiggggggghhhhhhtttt!”
I cant quit the endless fighting without my metal arms.
X: KOMBAT TIME!!!
Listen Phelous, you're funny and all, but i can't keep watching your MK videos.
I am just tired of all the endless fighting.
With all the contextless fight scenes, I’m surprised Phelous himself just end the review series here and give up on being an MK fan.
*Stares in silence. Then forgets how you feel later. *
Oh don’t be such a Blubber Butt.
@@HeilRay
*Crumbles Paper*
THAT'S IT!
OW! MY METAL ARMS!
raiden: nnoooooo. we aren’t doing that *again.*
The reason Stryker isn't in MK11 is because his 'knock out three Shokan with a single blow' move is just too OP.
It's actually his "conveniently placed portals" ability that does it. Even outworld's best warrior is powerless not to stumble backwards into convenient portals.
Elusively Inept Also Kronika would’ve turned into a toddler by accident if she brought Stryker back to life.
He was actually pretty good in the games tbh
Stryker is the Yamcha of MK.
Is he in past games?
I've heard Nightwolf will be added to MK11, can't wait to see his amazing typing skills in action.
His knowledge of technology is so great that he only needs one key to reach true salvation
In one of his fatalities, he clicks on the nose of his opponent until their head explodes.
He hacked NRS to add himself on The roster
His intro is him typing
He has a One Button Fatality when he is on his computer, he is just too damn OP....BUTTONALITY!!!
What does Nightwolf do while he watches Jax bang on the computer?
Nightwolf repeatedly taps the Insert key.
*slow cap*
@@arw1985 *slow tap*
“Insert! Insert! INSERRRRRRT!!!”
I'm going to miss Typedwolf.
The Jax show is the most popular reality show in all the realms!
Shame it only lasted 13 episodes.
Nightwolf got Jax porno show if you want to watch that.
Don't worry, season 2 is coming. But the show transitions to battles.
I used to watch this back to back with Cooking with Scorpion.
4:07 when Phelous's edits are actually more entertaining than what's going on in the show.
13 years later, and Mortal Komedy jokes and references are still just as funny.
Mortal Komedy is timeless!
Raiden should've said "I'm gonna miss you too GIRLFRIEND"
This makes Jax's ending in Mortal Kombat 4 look like high art...
Better than his Mortal Kombat 11 ending.
I don't remember Reiko being in this episode, but I'm certain Siro was in it. Probably the Mandela Effect.
Plot twist :
Nerdwolf is double-crossing the Kombat Krew, he's the one opening portal for Shao Khan and send them there.
Jax grandfather would still be alive if he took his metal pills
shame this show didnt have the same writers from batman the animated series to make this better
Um, wrong thread
To be fair, this show did a writer from BTAS. Albeit one who wrote a few of the early episodes of Season 1.
"Jax goes back to his grandfather's shack who really loved living on the edge. Coincidentally he died falling off a cliff." 😀😀
Ruby pushed him
Nightwolf gets drafted by Old Man and Wabu in their killing spree.
The world isn’t ready,,
Waabu and old man better be dlc in mk11
Jax couldn't see those cameras Nightwolf set up without his metal eyes.
12:58: Oh it gets even worse for you Raiden, afterwords you become a mortal and spend the rest of your life with Liu Kang where he gets to rewrite the universe however he sees fit. But if he didn't lose a fight to Kronika you just go poof and he gets to live with Katana.
Oh and Phelous, not only did you make a cartoon Siro but you also gave Shao Kahn a cartoon Reiko? That's just precious.
Better yet, Cartoon Siro ends the episode!
Or Legacy version of Raiden where he gets sent to a looney bin and gets a lobotomy.
Still waiting for the SIRO DLC for Mortal Kombat 11.
I want to see his crumple-paper-fataility-frienship intro.

SIRO THE GREATEST MORTAL KOMBAT DLC CHARACTER!
"Ruby's talent for seduction is surpassed only by her talent for betrayal." Uh. And if you truly believe that, shouldn't you be concerned Shao Khan?
Conquest Shao Khan would have killed her.
Meanwhile Kronika is watching this show and plotting to destroy another timeline.
Given her powers, that's probably a good reason why this will never be continued.
She prefers Richard Epcar over Clancy Brown anyway.
@@BigEOT3 Plot Twist: Kronika is actually Sonya from The Journey Begins universe.
This episode has made NSA perv Nightwolf my favorite version of the character!
Thanks for giving me a good idea to name Nightwolf “NSA Perv” When his DLC comes out
Guess it’s cheaper than tv packages.

"Who isn't watching Ruby Jaxing Jax off?" There's so many jokes in this that I was too dorky to make back when I was watching this show :D
Nightwolf left the cave!? Does that mean Keeva (Kiba?) was manning the computer and calling out portal openings
So they just got a bunch of barks, howls and growls then when she’d call out for something.
I’d like to believe they are.
Keeva the greatest Mortal Kombat character!
Siro: Aw wha?
Silent hill 2 ending crossover?
I will never get tired of Nightwolf hitting that one keyboard key
The comedic timing is amazing.
Advanced hacking.
Nightwolf: We've got a rip!
Mitch Buchannon, pushing Stryker out of the way: MYYYYY SAAAAVE!
Stryker, squeeling like Eddie: EEEEEEEEeeeee! This is Sonia's fault!
This would have been a good time to have the spinoff, MK Defenders of the Realms Nights
Anyone reading the mitch bucannon part in allison voice?
How much you want to bet Raiden stayed behind so he could check out Nightwolf's browser history.
@Stefano Pavone One tribal actress calls herself Pocahontas

Props to them for having heavily implied torture in this one. It was almost like it was based on a dark and violent canon or something.
My god, this show is just exasperating with how awful it is.
I don't think I have ever seen a show where people cared so little as Defenders of the Realm.
Even Konquest was better than Defenders of the Realm! And that's saying something considering the glaring flaws of Konquest.
@@TommyDeonauthsArchives It is the most phoned in, uninspired garbage excused by "it's for kids" I have ever seen. How could anyone who worked on this show be happy about it? Days of animating, hours of voice over work, minutes of writing all spent on... this...
There bad in different ways Tommy. Also I've seen worse.
Jeez, are all the good guys secretly pacifists, or does Raiden only recruit people with egos so fragile that they'll immediately give up when faced with the slightest obstacle?
Probably the later, with a touch of weiner baby. I've seen Pacifists/antiviolent people stand up to assholes.
@@trevingrayek791 true, pacifist doesn't mean the person won't fight if they have to.
I really liked Olivia d'Abo voicing Sonya. She's done quite good VA work.
If I recall, she did a bit of work in a DCAU Justice League episode or two.
It was wise for Jax to use the lamp, it's the most evil creature from Hell after all.
He’ll put sewage in their tap water and draw on the wall with crayon
Jax can't divulge information without his metal arms, all his lines are written there.
Someone please post a video of Nightwolf clicking the computer with the others just staring at him for ten hours.
It would be my new favorite video on UA-cam.
I’m actually going to be kind of sad once this series is over. I really enjoyed how poorly written this show was XD
It's sad to think it's almost over. I don't know what I'll miss more: Nightwolf's keyboard pecking -or Stryker's worthlessness.-
I'll miss Sonya's hair that looks like melted cheese.
I'll miss Jax and his metal arms.
Another MK Defenders episode?! To quote Quan Chi: "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhh!!!"
HUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!
It took me ten minutes to stop laughing when it was revealed that Shao Khan was watching Jax too. I couldn't even pay attention to what he was saying at that point I was laughing so hard. I almost expected him to repeat Sonya's lines.
I now kinda wanna see Phelous review the time travel shenanigans of the new games honestly. Mostly just to hear him do funny voices for everyone.
He should make a mortal combat abridged series
MK11 Sonya already sounds funny, just not ha ha funny.

I'm gonna miss MK content from phelous when this is done...
Missed opportunity for an "Ermac & Me" joke. Hell, "Mac & Me" was even mentioned! You owe us for this, Phelous! I demand a new Halloweenie appearance!
7:55 - Well, we do learn that Ermac never skips leg day!
I'm bored...what time is it?

Never change Phelous.
If his father and grandfather were both also named Jackson, that makes him naming his daughter Jackie even worse!
Do I sense a potential MK11 review in the future?
"Go back to the 90's."
I watch the playlist for this over and over. Thank you for making this series so funny, Phelan!
I think any hope for this series to be any good was *abandoned* from the first episode.
Also nice “dab” at MK11's Sonya during the comparison to D’abo
Boy, this show is really headed for the toilet.
Also, *RHONDA* *ROUSEY!!!* THE MOST KATY PERRY MORTAL KOMBAT VOICE ACTOR!!!
Who do you think I was gonna say?
The still shot of Ermac pinning Ruby to the wall with his leg looks more like she's helping him stretch.
I really wish Stryker was in MK 11, but I guess he need to get away from the violence.
Or he was afraid that Kollector would sell his guns on EBay.
5:25 [cue of Lupin the Third theme]
JACKSON THE THIIIIIIIIIRD!
And yeah. They leave Ruby to be killed by Ermac. So... a good episode?
You remember continuity better than the show.
he remembers it better than most games do, lol.

Look, Phelous, these videos of yours usually make me laugh, but...
I need to get away from this endless fighting and sort out my life...
Do you think the writers mistook "Outworld" for a term meaning "Any WORLD that is OUTside of Earthrealm?"
possibly
raiden: you see, imparr was merged with outworold, so what i said was true from a certain point of view
Here's a "Phelous Phun Phact" that wasn't mentioned. John Vernon is the voice of Shao Kahn on this show, EXCEPT for this episode where he's voiced by Michael Des Barres who voiced Kano.
Phelous should review the MK games' story modes. He could make an entire series about them, from Shaolin Monks, to MK 11, and everything in between.
‘The Jax attacks is backs!’
Only Phelous would reference a blooper from his own show
One more episode to go! I'm going to miss all of the dramatic story telling. Like Night wolf being charged for stalking his peers, Stryker forcing Sonja to play nurse without pay, and Jax having to part with his true love, his Metal Arms.💪🏾🏋🏾♂️🤳🏾
8:27 Scene interrupting Kitana!
In honor of those videos, I named one of Raiden's MK11 sets "God of Useless".
Don't you know, Phelous, Raiden has to first consult with the Elder Gods in order to use his powers.
So... Nightwolf is secretly the one opening the portals to hide the fact that he's a cyber creeper? 😂🤣
Don't blame fun, Jax. It was Night Wolf's fault for taking up the telephone line to be on AoL 24/7.
You missed out on a perfectly good "NATIONALITY" joke when Ermac threatened to make Ruby Finnish.
Ah Phelous, once again your great videos and riffs on MK subject matter have saved me from another dull, long, work day. When everyone hears me laughing I always show them your MK videos. Thanks again for the great content.
I call bullshit on Stryker beating three shokans with one hit.
Nightwolf is big brother, man
Maybe Jax and Ruby made up and she's Jax's off-screen dead wife in X and 11, so Jaqci picked up the ninja gear from her mom. Also 11's ending sucked, I love when everything I do in a story doesn't actually matter.
jax and ruby, ruby and jax
The "Nightwolf Typing" jokes never get old, and this one had the best yet.
So, did Nightwolf just watch Jacqui Briggs get conceived?
Man who HASN'T betrayed Kitana?
In the movie jade betrayed her
This review is hilariously epic !! Comic Gold !! One of your best, Phelous !!
So this is the part where Ermac rips out Jax's arms... oh' wait, that would be continuity and we can't have that. 🙃
Well that was MK9
Wait is Ruby just Jade with a different color
Pretty much.
Can you imagine Jade having a romance of out nowhere with a character we've never seen her interacting with before?
**cough*"

Yay! Phelous mentioned Finland.
I dreamed about you last night. You were collecting Care Bears plushies, and you were my brother. That's not creepy, is it?
Depends. Did you have cameras set up?
Should it be surprising Nightwolf is stalking Jax ? I mean, he had footage of Smoke's backstory in a previous episode...
Yeah but at least Smoke was with the bad guys at the time so it made some sense for NW to spy on them. Here, this is arguably worse.
2:02 wow this show has raiko in the series I never would of guessed that now Shaokahn wouldn’t be lonely anymore
Animated Reiko! Oh man add the rest and we can have MK Conquest the animated series.
13:35 Is this mortal Kombat or dragon ball z ? 🤣
Didn't realize ninjas could use Red Kamehameha 🤣
If I recall, that's a Kamehameha x10. LOL
and on the next episode.... the grand finale of the MK cartoon!
Jax's grandfather fell off a cliff?! It's dramatic irony. When Jax was throwing Jarek off that cliff, he was thinking of his grandfather.
Somewhere on the other side of that cliff, Heihachi was throwing his son off too.
0:45 Stryker did a Strike on those Shokahn lol
9:37 I think the bigger question is why Jax's grandpa has a Bolivian flag hanging up on his wall.
Nightwolf better be like this when his dlc comes out
You know, it would have made more sense of Ruby had allowed herself to be kidnapped, let Jax try to save her, and keep the con going while he was captured. That at least would have been a surprise reveal later on.
