SPOILERS TOTAL. You've been warned.
601: Episode name 2024 July 18
(First watched 2024-07-18) After the way the last season ended, a good breather. At the end of last season, they basically... won. Silver is in jail. Kreese is a fugitive. Miyagi-do / Eagle Fang are on good terms. Not everybody loved each other, but nobody wanting to kill each other.
Johnny funny as ever. Developing a training exercise about out of the frying pan and into the fire: "I'm also gonna need a frying pan."
I guess Johnny really was just squatting that building used for Eagle Fang training, as we see it demolished in this episode. That plus the students' attempt to make a name and logo for "Miyagi Fang" brought the combination of their dojos to a head again, with neither side really wanting to give up what their name meant to them (or make Mr. Miyagi look like a vampire). In the end everyone is mature enough to decide there are more important things than the name, but Johnny's concession is a bit stronger. Paraphrased: Eagle Fang was really just a continuation of Cobra Kai, so to him it would be more acceptable to merge into Miyagi-do and continue a legacy that doesn't include Kreese. Adding the eagle to the bonsai tree on their logo is a great little touch.
Most unexpected thing: Stingray deciding HE can restart Cobra Kai like Johnny did before, but training a bunch of little kids. I hope he comes up with a better name for that thing, because otherwise that's kind of a cute concept.
And Kreese... has gone overseas to try and start up Cobra Kai again.
The flow of time is really affecting the characters, as expected. Especially Kenny. A few seasons back (less than a year in-universe) he was introduced as someone small who ended up able to take on people much larger than him, but by now he's taller than Robby.
The stuff with Kenny and his brother turned out pretty interesting. At first I thought Robby was coming on too hard. He'd said what he had to say, Kenny and his brother told him to leave them alone, and... he didn't. But the way he and his friends handled themselves in the ensuing fight, not going as hard on Kenny as they could've, impressed his brother enough to make him think maybe they WOULD be a positive influence.
At one point Daniel says that after the Sekai Taikai he intends to stop being a full-time sensei. I wonder quite what he means by this. For one thing, as is he's already splitting time between that role and managing car dealerships, so it's already not exactly full time. But what lessened role is he thinking? He thought it was important for the kids of the Valley to see an alternative to Cobra Kai. Does that no longer matter without the imminent presence of something like Cobra Kai? Or does he trust people like Johnny (who at this point in the episode is still Eagle Fang) to be that more permanent positive presence?
