According to some viewers, the show ran its course years ago and has gone on for too long.
To the extent that this show had a bad stretch, Id point to season three.
Its only recently that Ive started feeling impatient, which really just meansCobra Kaiis ending at the right time.
Sure, thats simplifying things a bit.
The actual Sekai Taikai scenes also manage to be very engaging despite the ultimate outcome seeming all but guaranteed.
Miguel has some anger in him, a drive to pay Axel back for snapping Robbys leg.
But as Johnny reminds him before the big day, thats how he lost against Daniel back in 1984.
How the tables turn!
The girls final is first, with Zara surging ahead early on after successfully getting in Torys head.
Even here on Torys turf, Zara has more fans in the audience, which is pretty wild.
She instantly cools down, and their kiss inspires a huge cheer from the audience.
but his and no fuckin mercy line is suitably invigorating.
Her final, decisive move is to repeat hertooth kickfrom earlier in the tournament, this time on Zara.
At least he doesnt have some personal turmoil hanging over his head like he has in the past.
Going in with a good attitude, Miguel starts off well.
), with one particularly strong knockdown smashing Miguels head to the floor.
but this is truly a new level.
They actually urge Axel to break Miguels spine while hes pivoting, playing on his previous spine injury.
Isnt this a below-18 competition?
And Axel doesnt let it get in his head.
He quickly returns the sentiment and quits, hopefully ensuring himself many years of peace.
Hes our hero, an underdog ripe for redemption.
RIP, Terry Silver!
On that note, Silver wouldve died of cancer soon anyway.
Not sure about Kreese, though.
Would he have gone off to live a monkish existence somewhere?
Johnny is training Tory and Miguel awfully hard if theyre competing the next day, isnt he?
In general, the timeline here feels a bit compressed and confusing.
Did Daniel manage to get the old Cobra Kai studio back the same day Johnny announced the switch?
And Sam is already accepted to the Okinawa program, seemingly only days after telling Tory about it?
I was quite moved by Tory thanking the LaRussos for the kindness they showed her after all her mistakes.
