Poll: Mortal Kombat Ninjas or Naruto Ninjas?

[Madara XIII]

SORRY FOR A REPOST, but I couldn't get the poll to work on the last one so please bear with me.


Well hello my fellow escapists.
Me and my friend were having a brief discussion while playing MK9.
Who has better ninjas? (In the sense of Ninjas actually acting like Ninjas)
Naruto or Mortal Kombat?


Mortal Kombat Ninja line up:
* Scorpion
* Sub-Zero (Bi-han, older brother)
* Sub-Zero (Tundra, younger brother)
* Cyber Sub-Zero
* Cyrax (Human and Cyber)
* Sektor (Human and Cyber)
* Smoke (Human and Cyber)
* Rain
* Noob Saibot
* Ermac
* Reptile
* Kitana
* Mileena
* Jade
* And last but not least.....DAN FORDEN!!!..TOASY!!!

Vs.

The entire cast of the anime, Naruto


In Short: Basically choose which title do you think has the better Ninjas, why and name your personal favorite out of all the characters.

Me: Personally I think that Mortal Kombat has better ninjas than Naruto, mostly due to the fact that they serve their purpose as assassins and actually implement stealth and a believable ninja code.

My all time favorite Ninja out of the Mortal Kombat series is Ermac

Why? Because he's a freaking PSYCHIC NINJA!! On top of that, he's comprised of multiple souls. Speaking in the 3rd person has never been so badass. Good luck topping that XD
Plus I beast with him in the New Mortal Kombat

Genuine ninjas... but children or "ninjas" but murderous adults. Tough call. If the Naruto ninjas, specifically the main idjits, got their shit together, I'd put my money on them, but since they are absolutely 100% children and act accordingly, I think Sub-Zero and Scorpion would make short work of them.

I voted for Naruto in the poll because they don't lose or die very often, unlike the MK ninjas.

...you know what? Tough call!

Real ninjas don't wear orange jumpsuits!
They wear bright yellow and gut their opponents while yelling. "GET OVER HERE"!!!

 

[jacobschndr]

MK Ninjas have the will to kill. Those teenage kid ninjas are too...well..."kiddish".

Although, it would be cool to see Scorpion cut one of them in half, rip his mask/face off, and set their upper body on fire while still in the air. Just to watch the rest of the "kiddy" Ninjas think "Screw this, I don"t wanna be a ninja anymore!" HAHA!

Damn, that made me laugh. You have a fine point.

Have you ever seen a fatality?
If so, then you know exactly why Mortal Kombat would win.

Also, Cyrax isn't really a ninja anymore, he's more like a robot predator thing.

 

[Drakmeire]

Screaming in an obnoxious way is never something a ninja should do.
Mortal Kombat ninjas win.
Naruto is my most hated anime. When I tell people I like anime they ALWAYS ask if I like Naruto.

 

[Drakmeire]

Am I the only one who thinks the MK ninjas would be massacred by the ninja's in the Naruto series?

MK ninjas may have fatalities and a few special moves, but that really doesn't compete with this guy:

Spoiler: Hatake Kakashi

or this guy:

Spoiler: Pain

or this guy:

Spoiler: Shikamaru

or this thing:

Spoiler: Kyuubi

Any and all MK characters would get pwnd by these 4 alone.

this brings up the biggest problem with Naruto. WHY ISN'T THE SHOW ABOUT THESE GUYS!?!?!
they are more interesting, less annoying, and have more opportunities for their characters to be developed. Why do we stick with useless Token chick, Unlikable designated hero and God-Mode Sue?
but no, half of them show up, get developed and then killed by the author's pet character.
ok rant over.

Well both him and Sektor give you the option of picking their human forms after you unlock their costumes.

Either way still ninjas.

Or my favorite "United we stand, divided we Conquer!"

 

[Dirty Hipsters]

I'd go with the ninjas that don't wear obnoxiously bright colors despite the fact that they're supposed to be stealthy.

...wait.

Ah, I just rented MK9 this sunday, so I haven't unlocked any alternate costumes yet.
Kind of off-topic, but am I the only one who finds Scorpion's fatalities as the coolest ones?

Take a look for yourself

good one but the reason they wear flashy clothing is so they can't tell your a ninja if all the ninjas wore black hen it would be even more obvious. other than that the only problem is the headbands that pretty much say: I LIVE IN THE LEAF VILLAGE WHERE ALL OF MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS ARE.

In all honesty, I really think the Naruto ninjas would mop the floor with the Mortal Kombat ninjas. First, the MK ninjas would need to get in close to do any real damage. Tenten could pick them off at a distance before that ever happened, along with Temari, Gaara, Shino and Kankuro. If they did get in close, then they'd have to rely solely on their normal combat skills. If it was a straight up fight, no ninpo, then odds are good the MK ninjas would beat most of the Naruto ones. However, that's not going to happen. Rock Lee can move fast enough that the Sharingan has trouble keeping up with him, let alone a normal human eye. Neji and Hinata can shut your body down with simple taps, Sakura can punch through a human if she felt like it, and Kiba and his dog would have no problem using Tunneling Fang to shred them. Shikamaru could simply paralyze them while others went to town on the MK ninjas. Despite what you may think of Naruto himself, by the time the second half of the series starts, he's a force to be reckoned with. Not to mention that, while MK was fighting all his clones, he'd find an opening. Sai can create pretty much anything with his ink as well.
Throw in the adult ninjas--and even the evil ninjas--and the contest is over. The adults have no problem killing people, especially the evil ones. Kakashi crushed the heart of Kakazu, then crushed it again when the man was clearly defeated and no longer a threat. If you base the decision solely on ability, the MK ninjas are toast.

Now, if you're going by coolness, not annoying, and sheer gore, then yes, the MK ninjas win.

You may have noticed that I failed to mention Sasuke. That's because he'd die instantly because he'd be too busy being angry at the world.

Nah, I find them pretty cool considering his Nether Gates one has you thinking with Portals

 

[SD-Fiend]

...wait.

actually if all the ninjas wore black all the time in a ninja village they would be less stealthy and easy to pick out

 

[ShockValue]

I'm going to go with the Mortal Kombat guys here >.>

I think Sub Zeros are better. Can't beat finishing off opponents with their own skull. Noobs are pretty cool too >.< Though I haven't played it much myself so I haven't even seen all of Scorpions.

There's a difference between wearing black, and wearing something that makes you blend in.
