I found this summary for issue #2 of the Mortal Kombat X comic on ComiXology
"As Takeda continues to train and study the ways of the Shirai Ryu, Raiden pays Scorpion a visit... and a dangerous new threat emerges"
I was wondering if anyone on here knows who this character Takeda is?

Apparently a former Lin Kuei ninja that formed the Shirai Ryu? http://mortalkombat.wikia.com/wiki/Takeda Although he apparently died long ago, and I don't see why someone who founded the clan would be studying it's ways. So his role will likely be different in the comics. Very nice find.

Well, if we can have two different Kung Lao, why not two differents Takeda?

As Mr. Sloan always says, there is no "I" in team, but there is an "I" in pie. And there's an "I" in meat pie. Anagram of meat is team... I don't know what he's talking about.

Imo, Scorpion is rebuilding the clan.

Would be nice to see Scorpion do something other than be a puppet for Quan-Chi

I remember him from MKC. He got stung by the scorpion in the cage if I remember correctly. http://mortalkombat.wikia.com/wiki/Takeda

I'm guessing Scorpion's attempting to rebuild his clan and Takeda will be his protégé, probably the darker skinned fellow we saw not too long ago. I wonder if he will be a playable character in the game...

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Takeda became Tremor. Tremor was lin kuei before he joined the black dragon same as Takeda. Hmmm...

Good point, they do share that. Maybe they could retcon Tremor's past a little bit, have his real name be Takeda, leave the Lin Kuei but instead of going to the Black Dragon he ends up connecting with Scorpion and adopts the name Tremor as a code name or something lol

Be the best way to do an origins. Look at Skarlet in MK9. Imho this would be useful way of getting him into the canon. And if scorpion does plan to hunt down quan chi. Tremor could be a good ally in his fight against him since kano pretty much used Tremor for similar reasons in mksf to stop jax and sonya from going into the portal. Hmmm. This could be perfect setup for Tremor imho.

Whatever the case may be, is it safe to say the name "Takeda" is a nod to MKC?

Agreed, I think that would be work pretty well. I definitely would not mind seeing something like that happen.

Takeda and Forrest Fox (the black shirai ryu guy) aren't the same person. Here's the synopsis for #3
"After horrifically disfiguring himself and massacring the rest of the Shirai Ryu, Fox, possessed by an unknown force, implores Takeda to finish Scorpion or suffer the same fate as the rest of his clan!"

I see, sounds pretty interesting. Not a fan of the name but him being possessed and disfiguring himself sounds kind of cool lol
Hopefully him and/or this Takeda guy will make an in-game appearance.

I'm so excited for this comic, it's ridiculous. It'll be nice to have something with a backbone for MKX's story as well as something to thicken the plot. Just like the olden days. Didn't Deception have a comic? At least, a very short one? Or was that just some form of an art book?
Isn't Scorpion hunting Raiden down in comic #1? Apparently neither of them kill each other. Maybe Scorpion learns the truth before the game story comes into play. Raiden paying a visit to Scorpion could mean he intends to fight him or he intends to recruit him

Unless something else happens after 9 that would give Raiden a reason to want to fight him im assuming its for recruiting reasons, or possibly to tell Scorpion the truth about Quan Chi and his dickish ways.
