Mortal Kombat: Defenders of the Realm/YMMV
- Non Sequitur Scene: At a point of Attack of the Scorpion, Sub-Zero faces a giant snake that has nothing to do with Scorpion's undead army. Justified because they are in Outworld, where danger is at each corner.
- Ensemble Darkhorse: People generally liked the version of Raiden in this show.
- Memetic Mutation: Jax was the fattest kid in school.
- Narm Charm: The animation is crappy, the dialog is sometimes stupid and there are lots of really weird things (portal closing device in a police baton?), but there is something charming about this cartoon.
- Too Good to Last: Ran only for a single 13-episode season, even though it might have been the plan.
- What Do You Mean It's for Kids?: Bet you would never think they could make a Saturday morning cartoon out of an ultraviolent video game series, huh.
