Totally agreed, this cannot be pre mk1! If this takeda is going to found the shirai ryu and he's just ten years old, it means he needs to be at least 25 when he does so (however, the shirai Ryu is already there on the comic), the events of mk1 were many years after the creation of the shirai Ryu, at least 10 years, but kenshi's appearance on the comic is almost the same as the one of mk9... so if we assume kenshi's age on the comic was 30, adding the additional 25 years needed for the creation of the shirai Ryu by takeda that commander thinks, that means kenshi's age on mk9 must be around 55 years, when it's clear that's not the case..... so, commander, you are totally wrong.... not only considering kenshi's age, but Sonya's age too.... if you're right, and Sonya was working 15 years ago but she has that young look on mk9, simply it cannot be....Heres why we are all so confused:
We see the events in MK1 through And MKA as cannon when they obviously aren't anymore .It seems like they are picking a couple of events from the old MK's adding them to the story.
WE NEED TO FORGET ABOUT EVERYTHING WE KNEW THAT HAPPENED IN THE FRANCHISE PRIOR TO MK9 .
"I AM the flashing lights and special effects."
Returning to topic, I loved the comic, and that could be an amazing explanation for the resurrection of the earthrealm warriors like kung Lao (because this is post mk9).... however, this contradicts quan chi's intro, if there was a netherrealm war and so many people got their freedom, why does quan chi still has an army with the fallen earthrealm warriors? And it was already stated for example that Kitana remains dead..... that is really really contradictory!
