Exactly. Just like Jade, she's tanned. She's not black. Jax is black. Morph...Darrius is black. Tanya and Jade are not black. And you know what, be thankful they're not black. Given MK's sensitivity to other cultures, if either of them were black they'd stop being a character and start being a caricature, probably saying things you'd hear on the Jerry Springer show.


Right on Brother!

The problem with Tanya is that she's very dark; That could mean she's either Latino or Black. Again, in MKD, she's nowhere near as dark as she was in MK4; Her face and skin color resemble a woman of caucasian decent, not Latin or Black.

Many don't care b/c Tanya is not that popular of a character. But if they suddently changes Jax from black to white, or Liu Kang from Chinese to white, etc., many would be disappointed by this.

As was said earlier, it ruins the feeling of continuity in the MK series.
