edit- oops, I misread your post. There's a connection, it's just unknown. I imagine a spy or something similar.
ignore previous statement below but I'm leaving it for those that still think they're the same person.
this is a snippet from another thread with the same idea:reiko is kahn

here is your answer:
I swear people never read fight night...
from the MK team.

[22:45] The_Purple_Bunny asks: 'Guys, to possibly clear once and for all, what is the official statement on Reiko. Is he Shao Kahn, or not?'
[22:45] no he is not shao kahn, but he is associated with him

Does anyone need it any more clearer?
The gb mk4 was not written by the team but by the people who ported it.
Most of the team in previous interviews admit the mk4 ending was basically a joke and to start rumors.
Hopefully this topic will die.



in other words:NO, they are not the same

i dont think reiko is related 2 kahn b/c kahn is not a human, hes some other unknown race, and it looks like reiko is human so i dont think so, but u never no

First of all, it's Shao KAHN people. Not Shao Khan. Jesus.
And zippo, what makes you think Reiko's so human? Shiny blue eyes? Teleportation? I'd say that's pretty unhuman.
People, please, please, just drop the damn Reiko subject. Like the MK Team said, he was just some joke character. Nothing to be taken seriously. Just forget about him. please.

BTW, wrong forum.

Ohhhhhhh!!! Ok.

So, doing bicycle kicks in the air, throwing fireballs, having ice powers, coming back from the dead with a flaming skull for a head, having smoke come out from your body, firing a red lazer from your eye, falling on your butt cheeks and shaking the floor, thus hurting your opponent, throwing sonic waves/blasts, being able to fire raw energy from something that helps you breathe, and being able to clap loud enough to make someone fall back... is all humanly possible right? Ah, ok. Just had to clarify that.

lol

See, you get it perfectly .
And besides, Reiko has the eyes thing going on, lol.
As Zenty said, just drop Reiko, the dev team said he was a dumb character anyway (lol, criticizing their own creations), so we should just forget about him.

ok so hes not human...but it dosent look like hes from kahns race

actually one person(thread starter) only spelled it that way up to your post. It wasn't that big of a deal.

Yeah, but he spelled it two times, meaning he meant to spell it that way.
But it's not Khan, it's Kahn. It pisses me off to the extreme.
