HeavenSent, I completely agree, Kitana is awesome!



I will get the classic, just because I love her so. I heard the males come with an extra fatality, so I'm hoping the girls do too.

This is random, but I hope when she takes her mask off she looks a little like sofia vergara, she's sooo beautiful!! I can't wait to see her unmasked!

Yeah except Sofia Vergara is kinda old. I would rather Kitana look like someone younger, like 19-24. The top half of Kitana's face looks very young, so I hope if she does have a maskless costume that the bottom half of her face looks as young as the top half.

As much as I love Kitana, I honestly think her MKvsDC hair sucked, especially in-game. I don't think I've ever seen hair as ugly as that in video games.

Her MK2011 hair is absolutely beautiful, it just needs a bit more tweaking regarding the animation.

As for her alternate, I would love to see a 100% assassin outfit, with a mask. I'd like it to be mainly black, with just touches of dark blue and silver. I'd love it if it were an update of the costume Talisa Soto had in the movies. I would love to see Kitana in skin tight pants + high boots. I'd do the hair MKDA style, that one was really cool.

Unfortunately, as her primary costume already has a mask and we know she's also gonna have her retro costume that features a mask, I'm afraid Kitana's alternate in MK2011 will be without a mask. Maybe they could remove the mask from her primary (even though I like the design of the mask) and make that costume the "princess costume", while give her an assassin costume for the alternate, with a mask and lots of clothes

Also, I'm hoping they add the classic fans (MK2-UMK3) to her retro costume, that would be a nice detail.

Anyway, I love her combos in MK2011. Love that the Pretty Kick special is back, it adds to her offensive side. I also LOVE HER VOICE in MK2011, spot on, so full of confidence!

Overall, I'm pleased with MK2011 Kitana. I'd give her 4 out of 5 stars (so far).

Rather than just her outfit be like Talisa Soto's, I'd like her whole face that way... 'cos seriously... that chick is DAMN hot >_< And that's coming from a gay man.

And not to rag on the hair some more, but come on!! It looks lovely in the render and acceptable when standing there, but seriously! it doesn't move in any conceivable way realistically. It bounces, it flops around. It's like it's still tied in bunches like in DA the way it moves. If they just did it that way or similar it'd be fine.
Also, i find the rendering of the hairs themselves funky. Because there's SOOO m uch of it... kinda looks like she needs to shampoo... which I suppose is hard in Outworld O.o

I'd prefer a more elaborate plait like Ms Soto's in the movie... Simple, gorgeous, and if exaggerated could certianly be both princessy and assassiny.

That is the last thing I would want to see. The costume from the movie is so freakin ugly. They need to just stick with the motif of updating the MK2-UMK3 leotards. I do not want to see Kitana, or any of the other assassin females in pants. For her alternate I would like to see something similar to her MKSM costume, the render one, not in game, or something like the purple costume from MKDA, except blue not purple. Kitana's hair does look awesome in 2011, the animation will be sufficiently tweaked and everything will be all good. For her alternate I wouldnt mind if they brought back her MKDA hair, or if they made it similar to what she already has but put it in a high ponytail. Definitely keep the high heels too.

I have my doubts about them actually fixing that big black furry tube attached to the back of Kitana's head. It's a little over a month and a half left and they're releasing game trailers with that monstrosity.

I don't understand why it's so hard to animate it. It's like they gave it JOINTS, instead of modeling individual strands as a continuously flexible thing and allowing them to move somewhat independently of the whole. Seriously, WTF NRS?

Well of course sofia when she was younger lol.

Okay, I just thought of something as I was posting in "The Jade thread." This is strictly speculation derived from canon facts. It is canon that Sindel killed herself after being forced to marry Shao Khan and Kitana was a baby. I was thinking, If Kitana was a baby, she does not remember these events since she thought Khan was her father for her whole life. What if When Sindel is resurrected this time, since she is in the 2011 game, Im assuming that story is going to remain the same but who knows, anyway, What if Kitana is pissed at Sindel for abandoning her? Like Jerrod was already murdered, Why would you just kill yourself and leave your baby girl with Shao Khan? Maybe Sindel knew Shao Khan would care for Kitana as his own daughter and train her to become a fighting/killing machine. But what if Sindel didnt know what Shao Khan would do with Kitana? Why would she just leave her baby with him? Maybe Kitana could stay loyal to Khan since he is the only parent she knows and Sindel is fighting to win back Kitana.

I thought about that too. I would think that she maybe tried to have Kitana smuggled out of Edenia, but was a failed attempt. Or she wasn't in her right mind when she killed herself. I hope the new game explains more what happened at this point in time.

lol kitana would look very pretty if she looked like that lol hmmmm do u think she will have a different fan design in her alternate!!?? that would be great!!

That would be awesome! Hopefully she does

^I would actually really like for this or something similar to happen.

well yeah, you wrote it lol

The concept is cool, but looks too much S&M for my tastes. The style could definately do the infamous vampire huntress, Blood Rayne proud if it was red


The blue in the outfit should stay put, with or without high heels and should reveal just enough to keep us, her loyal fans drooling.

Masked and unmasked should be an alternative for her as a Princess.

"Nuff said..... Peace !

Kitana my lovely delicious Princess looks absolutely amazing! This is my second favorite look for her! My favorite is still her MK 2 and UMK3 look!

I love her MK2 look. People say it's too simple, but it's so iconic and does its job. Though, I do love this rendition a lot more. It just seems to have more culture attached to it. There's a little assassin, but it's mostly princess. I think people have a problem with that because early Kitana was always more assassin than princess, but I love it. It's an aspect of Kitana we really didn't see too much of during Kahn's rule.

@skyboy Exactly people always get so touchy when it comes to Kitana and her early days ugh! It's liker yeah so what she was a assassin that's what made her interesting hello! Even tho her being Princess is also interesting! But her MK 2 look was indeed Iconic! :)

See, I always found her UMK3 look wayyyy more iconic than her MKII look. MKII dated itself extremely quickly I find. It was just sooooo plainjane. Obviously because of the technical limitations, but seriously, the criss crossing on their UMK3 outfits was sweeeeeeeet. Made quite an impression on my fashion tastes I must say.

I love the costume, I just HATED the bun to no end lol. If she had her hair down, or a ponytail with some bangs, I think I would have loved that design a lot more. With MK2, my little second grade mind love everything about her lol. She's plain compared to her later renditions, but it'll always have a spot in my heart :) Whipping her hair and them fans back and fourth!

*respect for skyboy plummets with the willow smith reference* -_-
Teehee I tease, I tease.


Why do you hate the bun so much? Is it the bun itself, or just how it makes the front of their faces look? Do you like the retro ninja version for MK9? With the chopstick in it?

I always loved the bun (again, it was my first Kitana/Mileena costume so I'm biased) so I just don't get people's beef with it. I think it'd look better with some of the front left out so she had a fringe though, like, less of a really tight formal bun and more loose.


I did like her MK2 hair from the comic books she and mileena had. They looked damn sexy in those.

I hated that Willow song at first too, but she's such a cute girl and the song has a good meaning to it lol. I got an overdose of 'D'awww'!!

I don't know, I just never liked the bun. I associate it too much with old ladies and librarians I guess. When her hair is down, it looks sexy to me. Her face looks too round when it's in the bun, though I must admit I do like the classic look in this game. But I also feel Kitana would be better suited for a sleek ponytail, like Lady Deathstrike in X-Men 2. That would look amazing on Kitana. she looked good in MK vs DC, but I think it should be even sleeker with the bangs...

Shudder. Willow Smith. I HATE 12 year olds with pop songs. Especially when they're riding on their parents success. That Greyson Chance kid I can forgive 'cos he wrote it and got fame by himself, but Willow Smith (and the other Smith kid).... eugh.

And all the homos facebook statusing it >_< (obviously a homo myself mind)






I can see why the bun is a bit librariany. But I always found librarians sexy ;) (I'm referring to porn style librarians where they are minxs inside their dowdy appearance)


Hmm a high ponytail would be good, but I think a plait or thick braid would be good too. Excepting Jade's alternate none of them have had braids before. Maybe like Princess Leia's gold bikini hairstyle but with blue holding it together not gold?

The Librarian look can be sexy, but it plays along the lines of "I'm innocent until proven guilty... which will be later ;)". I think Kitana is well aware that she's sexy and doesn't down play it. But a plait would be phenomenal on her, I'd love to see it...

I think MK2 is the best one, like ever. I can see that UMK3 would be your favorite because it was the first one you played, but imo, MK2 will always be the most classic MK game.
