I don't think any of MK9's arcade endings were even canon if I remember right, so I definitely wouldn't jump to the conclusion that any of MKX's would be, much as I'd love for Ermac's, Mileena's, Kenshi's, and such to be canon.

And yeah, Shujinko going on assaults stealing souls like that seemed out of character. Or... maybe he had still being aging faster than we realized after touching the waters of the Chaosrealm, so he needed to do that to keep living. Then again, we never saw him train under someone like Shang Tsung to learn how to steal souls, so it still doesn't quite add up. I dunno. Would've been funny though if Damashi (Onaga's avatar) approached Cassie, telling her why she needs to collect the rest of the kamidogu after what she did to Shujinko.
