    i like how Johnny is a low- key history buff or at the very least learns and does research on things he aquires. Could have easily written if off and he just wanted this baddass sword and Kenshi tells him its importance, instead its he wanted a badass sword that comes with this aweseome historical backstory with it.

      He’s a nerd for things he’s passionate about, like Goku and the one brain cell he has fully dedicated to combat theory.
      I dig it, he probably picked a lot of that up from what little education he cared about and likely continued with his various senseis that helped mold him into the genuine martial genius he became at such a young age. I don’t even really think he needs some hammy Elder God blood mcguffin glow-up, just reason enough to shake off his goofiness and fight like his life and the lives of his short list of genuine loved ones are at stake.

    @Anthonymous 6 місяців тому +5

    I have no clue if this is a hot or cold take, but I truly believe that M1K Johnny is his BEST, most definitive version ever. He starts out as a big star who's down on his luck right before becoming one of Earthrealm's champions, and demonstrates how he can still handle his own in fights even bore Liu Kang shows up to train him. And as the story progresses, he eventually starts to learn humility, being selfless. and to care for his new friends/companions. All of this and more even BEFORE he ever meets Sonya in this New Era! Which makes me wonder how he'll continue to be handled as this new storyline progresses (hopefully) now that he's evolved so much and reached a farther point in personal development before Sonya was even brought into the picture, which is usually the point where he would start his journey.
