Yeah he really does fit in, especially with if his palette is a little warmer and darker.
And because of MK Trilogy he even has extra special moves that could be used.
he has : Knife throw, knife slash (where he rotates the knifes), rolling attack, and upwards rolling attack.
Fatality 1 - Where he tears your heart out.
Fatality 2 - could be similar to MK3 where he shoots at you with his eye laser, that was cool.
Friendship - how about him posing with a can of cola while you hear
MMM KANO COLA! from that one mk clip

I just finished Kintaro btw, now only the 2nd endings of Smoke/Noob/Jade are left.

(and once those are done I'll write up their endings.
