    The dad might follow him, because, of course, he needs his son to take over the business. I suppose, as an alternative, Daniel and Johnny may need Kreese to lead them through a South American jungle (where he obviously ran black ops before) to rescue Miguel from his father’s drug kingpin mansion. Just trying to imagine the most 1980s type storyline I can imagine based on what we’ve been given.

    That would probably work better. Though it'd be less Karate Kid and more Rambo/Commando at that point. :lol

    Is Cobra Kai going to culminate with some bullied kid pulling a gun on one of these karate assholes and pulling the trigger? The more this keeps escalating, the more I think that this is the natural end point.

    The blue mats are the entire reason for the renewed interest in the All Valley Karate tournament.

    Finaaaaaly binged Season 4, some random thoughts (being vague to avoid spoilers)...

    - Sam is a jerk but then you realize, she had PTSD because she had been assaulted and terrorized. Glad they didn't just gloss it over and make her try to befriend Tory.
    - Tory, Eli and Robby had my favorite arcs. I got a little caught up with the feels during Tory's last conversation with Mrs. LaRusso.
    - It was a good outcome of the tournament!
    - Danny and Johnny are eternally stuck in the "character growth gets reset" cycle. But what can you do. Their conflict drives the series, so it's necessary.
    - Terry Silver's arc was good too. He's a psycho till the day he dies.
    - Is Kreese Darth Vader? We'll see. I like that the show gives bad guys second chances but also plays with our expectations.

    - Please wrap it up in season 5. There's only so many romances, conflict triangles and growth resets that you can make with the same small cast of characters.

    I feel like 5 should be it. Im fairly certain Robbie will be out of Cobra Kai by first or secpnd episode followed by Tory.

    The true villain of Cobra Kai was Samantha Larruso all along...

    It all started when she and her friends crashed into Johnny's car.

    Netflix better not cancel cobra Kai without ending the series properly.

    Now I’m worried Daniel will become the villain that Barney alleged like Luke cage.
