(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. | (First watched 2024-07-18) After the way the last season ended, a good breather.

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? | At one point Daniel says that after the Sekai Taikai he intends to stop being a full-time sensei.

(First watched 2024-07-19) When they started doing flashbacks with young Kreese, back in [[Cobra Kai Season 3|season 3]] I think, I didn't expect they'd just never stop. | (First watched 2024-07-19) When they started doing flashbacks with young Kreese, back in [[Cobra Kai Season 3|season 3]] I think, I didn't expect they'd just never stop. | ||

After Kyler both being the initial bully for Miguel and friends, and then being part of the "Kreese asshole" wave of Cobra Kai a few seasons later, it's strange to see them fighting alongside each other. But letting bygones be bygones is a pretty common theme of this show, so at least they didn't have to wait 30 years. | After Kyler both being the initial bully for Miguel and friends, and then being part of the "Kreese asshole" wave of Cobra Kai a few seasons later, it's strange to see them fighting alongside each other.

(First watched 2024-07-20) Johnny dumb idea #500: use a slumber party to reignite tensions between Sam and Tory. As these things go it ended up working sideways. Apparently they'd been kind of walking on eggshells not wanting to return things to the previous status quo, but since Johnny pushed the issue they ended up more properly apologizing to each other and moving past that, so they can train with each other properly. | |||
This new Miyagi stuff... I wonder what will come of it. Really there is a pretty big gap in what we know of him between his time in the military in the 1940s and him building the home now used as a dojo. | |||
For people so excited about the Sekai Taikai, the students seem awfully uninformed about it. Like, I doubt that "six member team" thing was new for this year. Clearly entire dojos full of people couldn't be entering a world championship. From a show standpoint it also makes obvious sense to have fewer characters to focus on from what's become a very extended roster. Anyway, given the events of the series up to now I'm guessing the most likely team of six will be: Miguel, Robby, Hawk, Kenny, Sam, Tory. We'll see. Among the cast considered "starring", that would only leave out Demetri. | |||
