I respect:

*dun dun dun*

Bo Rai' Cho, 'cause he's fat.
Ashrah, for not buying her clothes from Whoresville USA.
Li Mei, for her heroism (up until her ending anyway) and wearing purple.
Kira, for being a redhead who fights with twin daggers (like one of my chars...personality is way different)
Nightwolf, for being my manly man.

Sub-Zero cause he's a grand master, and being a former martial artist myself, I have to respect them.

I respect Raiden now. he's gone past his Ideals that all humans are worth saving and is now looking out for only those who deserve to live, and rightfully punishing those who put earth in harms way.

I would go with Shujinko for now. He does have a good story but it was very poorly told in MKD's Konquest. Bo Rai Cho would have been first but I just can't stand all that farting.

Baraka
Mileena
Jade
Tanya
Sub Zero

...wow.what he said!!!!

I respect scorpion cuz he never gives up on finding quan chi( i know that hes already been lookin for him in pretty much all the mk games but its awesome that he's still at it!)And also sub-zero cuz of the way he beat all those tarkatas in his ending and for having the courage wear that really really REALLY ugly alternate costume!

i respect scorpion the most beacuse he is cool with nice moves and he is a ninja

sub zero

DAIROU: After Darrius tricked him into killing, he was taken into jail. Then, he still had the hope and determination to keep in good spirits and finally got out of jail. He didn't even turn completely chaotic in retaliation to what "the Seidan Guards" did to him. He kept his composeure, and went through a lot. I respect him for that.

JADE: Always remaining loyal to her Queen. She could have take the easy route and stuck with Kahn in MK3, but she didnt. Then, when she appeared in MKD, she again didnt take the easy route and helped to rescue Kitana. Also, her hatred for Tanya shows that she has a lot of loyalty to her realm - a trait I respect.

That, plus they're just cool characters

Sub-Zero
Scorpion
Li Mei
Jade
Mileena
Kira
Havik
Ermac
Noob-Smoke
Ashrah
Hotaru

I respect only 4 characters that I will only ever respect

Liu Kang
Scorpion
Kenshi
Sub-Zero

I'm going to say that I most respect Goro, he seems to me to be the most noble of all the warriors, though he did serve Shang Tsung. I also really like Onaga's way of thinking, even if I don't condone the actions they led to.

well id have to say NIGHTWOLF because he helped shu junko the most id say

Scorpion, Noob, Smoke, Ermac, .... the way of the Ninja is the only way.~

Bo Rai Cho out of anybody.

Born in the realm of outworld that is in constant turmoil, he chooses to go to earthrealm and train combatants to put an end to the evil emperor Shao Kahn. He is the man that trained Liu Kang before the original mk, and has since trained many warriors to the present spot.

He also could have easily entered the tournament and surpassed many, but he choose not to because the victory would favor outworld.

I respect Scorpion the most because he has the most reponsiblity in being the Elder Gods' champion.

Havik

he doesnt desolve his caracter in groups or anything, he is about promting his own objectives, he looks at the key elements of MK as beautiful.

BLOOD, Bones, PAIN!

definitly shujinko i mean hes a great fighter who has stuck with his quest for the supposed freedom of earthrealm well into old age and took time to train with Bo`rai cho,Subzero,Baraka,Scorpion and find the kamidogus AND master techniecs from all people he trained with and thats why i respect Sujinko

hmm would hav to be ermac he helps jinko and anyways i respect him for turning good

I respect Lui Kang because he was always my favorite character.He was the hero that everyone looked up to.Im still mad that Liu Kang died in MKDA but im happy that hes still in the MK series.

Kenshi

I respect raiden for killing himself to try and save earthrealm, and for killing shujinko as anyone that puts earthrealm in danger is an enemy.

Me too.

And I also respect Shujinko, since he spent his entire life trying to help the elder gods and save the realms, and in the end he was deceived. Kind of sad.
