History Series / MortalKombatConquest

* AdaptionalBadass: Shadow Priests, [[spoiler: to the point of being able to kill most characters.]]

* ConspicuousCG: The teleportation effects and transformations are ''very'' conspicuous CG.

* CompositeCharacter: Qali combines elements of the two game characters, Jade and Tanya both of whom are Edenian. Like Jade, Qali is an Edenia who is the BlackBestFriend to Kitana and has known her since childhood. However, she ultimately shows Tanya's penchant for betraying people, even her friends, for survival. Unlike Tanya however, Qali is shown to regret her duplicity.

* MrFanservice: Shang Tsung.

* VillainOfTheWeek

* ObviousStuntDouble: A few examples, but the biggest is the stunt double they hired for Jaime Pressly as Mika. In addition to the obvious wig she's wearing, her face is even shown a few times.

* EverybodyHasLotsOfSex: Most dialogue between men and women tends to suggest they want only one thing. Even Kung Lao is implied to have lost an old relic in a woman's house, and the woman is very happy to see him again. Exceptions are Kitana (this takes place ''before'' she meets [[spoiler: Liu Kang]]), Scorpion, and Sub-Zero (though Scorpion could be implied to have a healthy sex life since he has a wife, [[spoiler: until Sub-Zero kills her]]).

* PayEvilUntoEvil: [[spoiler: After Scorpion's wife kills Sub-Zero's little sister, he freezes her to death.]]

* ConspicuousCGI: The teleportation effects and transformations are ''very'' conspicuous CGI.

* DownerEnding: [[spoiler:The show ends with Shao Kahn killing everyone]].

* BroughtDownToNormal: In the finale, [[spoiler:Shao Kahn bides his time and transports everyone to Outworld, causing Raiden to lose his powers, making him easy prey]].

* KillEmAll: [[spoiler: Shao Kahn literally kills every major character at the end of the season. Season 2 would have had [[DivineIntervention the Elder Gods intervening]] and hitting the ResetButton [[http://www.mksecrets.net/index.php?section=mkc&lang=eng&contentID=5900&title=Mortal-Kombat-Conquest-Ending-and-Story-Timeline]] , but the show was cancelled, so Shao Kahn pretty much wins.]]

* DiabolusExMachina: Shao Kahns hooded fighters [[spoiler: who kill all the other characters, with only Shao Kahn and Raiden left]].

The series is regarded as something of a cult classic. It was finally released on DVD in the US in March 2015 after originally being released elsewhere, and has an infamous ending that divides fans to this day.

%% Don't add HeyItsThatGuy here. It's already in the Trivia tab.

* SoBaditsGood: The show cares nothing for either the games or its own continuity, most of the characters that appear are about several hundred years too early and ALL of the characters from the game have their backstories and personalities[[note/]]Which mind you where developed better on an early 90'S FIGHTING GAME[[note]] butchered sans Shao Kahn and arguably Shang Tsung...''arguably'', the "heros" are greedy, stupid, hot tempered, selfish, violent, and often the villain’s plans only get as far as they do because the good guys are being blithering idiots, they very rarely learn anything and suffer AesopAmnesia almost OnceAnEpisode sometimes in the very episode that they learned whatever lesson they where suppose to, 9/10 the villains' plans are IdiotPlots, the absolutely absurd amount of effort put in to make EVERY women Stripperiffic and covered in makeup in a medieval-esq setting is more likely to trigger faceplams or FanDisService than anything else,[[One woman gained a SuperForm from an ancient Black Dragon and the form consisted of a black bra and short shorts[[note]] it uses some of the lowest cheapest tricks for drama this side of GameofThrones, the bee women... just the bee women, the acting is inconsistent across the board, and the action scenes[[note/]]as well as the writing[[note]] are vastly inferior to other action shows of the time like Hercules and Xena and Power Rangers, but damn is it fun to riff.

* ShipTease: Taja and Siro had quite a few little moments where they seemed like more than just friends.
