In terms of the sensei's fighting, I honestly see Chozen beating either Johnny or Daniel 3 times out of 5. The man is a beast and he never stopped consistently practicing karate, unlike the other two, and this is coming from a big Johhny Lawrence fan.

Johnny literally didn’t train in karate for 30 years and is even to Daniel who got future training from Mr. Miyagi. There’s a reason Kreese keeps saying Johnny was his best student. Plot had Johnny lose in KK1 but he has the same skills he did back then now but is older. Johnny countered the pressure point moves so that’s not going to be a key role playing move here. Barnes didn’t train in 30 or so years either and was holding his own against Chozen until it was stopped by Daniel.

@@the_nikster1 Idk I understand her trauma but it just seems Tory has a LOOOT on her plate than Sam imo. Which is why I'm glad they had the scene of Sam going into Tory's home in this season I believe? Because she had an understanding of her situation, something she didn't necessarily take into account before. Yes, she created her trauma, and mental trauma sucks, but I think it kind of made her more of a douche in the end towards both Robbie and Miguel to an extent. And yeah, just because you're going through a lot of stuff, that doesn't give you the right to be a bully to others, but it's understandable why that route was taken

@@themoviecritic1092 oh definitely. going through shit never gives you an excuse to hurt others, and I’ve never excused Sam’s actions. she did some shitty things too; I just always felt like everyone was so quick to excuse Tory’s bad behavior just because she has a shitty home life, as if Sam can control her upbringing. it’s not her fault she comes from money and imo it’s never a good idea to compare people’s trauma. trauma is trauma and it affects you whether you’re privileged or not.

Here is a neat thing I just noticed. Last season, Cobra kai practiced countering Miyagi-do's defense. Sam was hit with a double kick that anticipates the first block. This season, Terry Silver had the Cobras practice the move a lot. We actually see Tory and Devon practicing it while talking about the potential for the Sekai Taikai to be able to pay for college. Here: 11:38 we see Devon-Lee use the move, but now, Miyagi-do has increased their defense thanks to Chozen. so the move is now ineffective.

I dont think Johnny and Daniel will permanently form one dojo. I think it will end with them separating, but on good terms. They'll teach their own philosophies, and use the others sometimes. They'll still work together, train the others dojo every now and then. Theyll still be rivals and compete, but do so as friends. I think that would be a fitting ending. Daniel leads Miyagi-Do, and Johnny shows that cobra kai can be a great dojo with an actual good sensei

He also is one of the few who have trained the longest, behind like Sam and Miguel. Total bullshit that he lost this fight

So many people whine and cry about Kenny beating Hawk, which is just hilarious. First of all, it's clearly spelled out why. Hawk doesn't take Kenny seriously, the bad calls by the ref through Hawk off, and Kenny did a purposely potentially lethal move. People also cry that Kenny is too good already. And yet have no problem with Miguel becoming a master fighter in one season or being able to fight just as good after he broke his back not that long ago.
