Enjoyed the brief talk at the end from I believe Cobra Kai (show) creators cameo, talking about making a Back to the Future spinoff.

It is interesting how they turned Miyagi-do and Cobra Kai into a yin-yang thing. Johnny acknowledges that following strictly Cobra Kai maxims like "No Mercy" turns you into an asshole--but the solution rather than being to get rid of No Mercy is to recognize that there's a time and place for No Mercy. Which really isn't No after all, but who's quibbling. And from the other side Daniel finally gets the rest of the story on Miyagi's jewelry robbery, and gets the message that even his Defense-Only mentor understood there was a time and place for Striking Hard, like when someone has stolen a family heirloom from your dead wife. I do note that at the end the Miyagi-do logo has regressed back to what it was in earlier seasons, presumably since the eagle flew off to do his thing down the road.}}

Comment from late May having rewatched the last few episodes: So Johnny's... new angle on the tenets of Cobra Kai makes it less of an asshole stance, but the one thing that I don't think really fits in is his mocking of students. He talks about how Cobra Kai is a way to fight back so the world doesn't walk all over you, but how does making fun of a kid's glasses and telling them to change their style closer to his preferences fit in with that? If the student just said "Eat shit, sensei!" would that also be considered a win in the Cobra Kai style?}}
