I truly broke down crying during this scene

I honestly really like the comment that says they probably didn’t have to really act for this scene they were really crying.

Not just Ralph. Tamlyn befriended Nobu McArthy who played Yukie while shooting the movie. They became close friends. Sadly Nobu has passed. So both are remembering old friends.

The Miyagi Do fan group recently posted a picture of Pat with Ralph's family. Pat hugging Ralph's two kids and I immediately thought of this scene when in the letter Miyagi said Sam made him feel like her grandfather.

No kidding

I laughed so much when Kumiko read that and my immediate thought was: Mr Miyagi still had his very special humour in which he approached life.

A dying mans gotta do what a dying mans gotta do

Probably one of Daniel's car commercials.

@@cloudsmiles1 That's something Pat Morita would say as Mr. Miyagi

Even on his death bed Miyagi is still making jokes. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

i know right!!

Samantha: Tanme!! Mr. Miyagi: Hello Samantha-chan

Daniel: "What's tanme?" Kumiko: "Grandfather." Me: 😭😭😭😭

Very touching

In his grave says that he Passed away in 2013

He was thinking of Pat.

I've actually tweeted Ralph asking him if he was present when the letter was written (in real life) ? I can't help feeling that those were his real tears, his and Daniel's, because they had no idea what was written. Domo Arigato! #WaxOnWaxOff2021

yes tears came off even from my eyes. Kanashii - sadness

Mr Miyagi made Cobra kai/Karate Kid great again! Totally !

I can tell

Cried like a baby haha

Never cried on a movie before. But me being a karate kid fan. And having this show. Seeing this scene, fuck man. Didnt cry but got watery eyes. Also got chills with daniel on his way to tomi remembering okinawa in the taxi. Meeting kumiko, chozen. And kreese getting his fucking ass beat by johnny

I was fighting the tears back until the part that he revealed he lived long enough to meet Sam and that he felt like her grandfather. Then I lost it.

First time having tears out my eyes

@@jmanzew4146 same here 😆

Yes he truly love daniel. Left him everything

He truly treated Daniel like a son too.

Daniel Alva Baby You 😉😗 x xx love xx You have the Love too You 😉😂💘 Xx x and

And Daniel had a father after losing his own

And a granddaughter in little Samantha. (What a pity that Daniel's son took zero interest in karate.)

Actually in the third movie when Daniel left him for cobra Kai, he revealed that then and there

@@ZaNinjaYT I might need to rewatch that movie because I don’t remember Miyagi needing Daniel. Daniel was the one who came back to Miyagi because of his aggressive nature

BorgesProduction if you rewatch it, you can see miyagi crying because of Daniel leaving, I don’t remember full details, sorry for being vague, just rewatch it honestly

@@ZaNinjaYT facts he loves Daniel so much. His heart is empty without him

@@ressestevenson7309 Jonny also got hope from Miguel. Vice verse

Mr.miyagi is one in million a ture legend. I'm so glad he spent his final days with his family.

He's the goat

Never noticed that. Thnx.

Sam doesn’t deserve have grandfather like mr miyagi

@@tvalokibatman6563 yes she does dont be so harsh! Shes just hot headed like her Father!

I love the Mr. Miyagi love in the show. Really keeps his legend alive. Just reminds me of how good Pat Morita was in that role.

Totally agree. After a while, especially in superhero shows, dead characters stop having much of an effect on the characters that are still alive but here, Miyagi never stops having an effect on Daniel. Daniel brings Miyagi into every lesson he teaches and never forgets him

@@Sam-vk8xd while he suffered from Alcoholism, but the Miyagi role saved him from losing his career. Sadly, he lost the battle. We will never forget his influence as a wise mentor and father figure to our protagonist.

She was so hot in the ealry 2000's too...they did her hair accent dirty in the film doe

I know right she never got married because nobody ever saved her life during a duel she never forget about Daniel doing that for her risking his own life against Chozen to protect her honor.

They loved Pat in real life

It was also the fact that the Tamlyn Tomita was also filming with Nobu McCarthy another project when McCarthy passed away suddenly. I recall them being pretty close.

@@Octaslash08 They were just like Ralph was close to Pat

@@Octaslash08 she was with her when she died

They were thinking about Pat.

Probably the most touching shit I’ve ever seen. Had a 38 year old man shedding some tears. Pat has to be looking down smiling. The writers deserve some type of award for this.

Rest In Peace Mr Miyagi 😭😭😭😭😭

absolutely

@@dimitries language.

@@dimitries but I totally agree with you.

Fr. Talk about full circle

They basically mirrored that relationship with Johnny and Miguel in season 1. Johnny initially didn’t want anything to do with Miguel, but eventually came to care about him like a son, the same way Mr Miyagi did with Daniel.

Very good observation I had missed, thank you for pointing that out!

Mikez np. The writers are out of this world.

"When are you gonna fix the faucet?" "After." "After what?" "After AFTER!"

Stuff like this show and the Creed movies are how you continue a cinematic legacy. (Looking at you, Star Wars sequel trilogy.)

@@thelevisullivan Thankfully Jon Faveru and Dave Filoni are setting that right.

Mario Lopez said he would never ever do a reboot/continuation of saved by the bell but after watching cobra Kai, he changed his mind. He told NBC that if they could pull it off the way cobra Kai has, he would absolutely sign on

@@thelevisullivan the problem with the new Star Wars movies is that the directors, writers and producers thought they were too good for fan service. But you can’t to wrong with fan service. If they prioritized fan service, the movies would have turned out so differently.

Let’s hope Netflix doesn’t fuck it up

Now he can have a heart to heart talk with Anthony.

And let's not forget Mr. Sato 😭😭😭

@@vgg31 I was gonna say the same thing

I remember hearing that Tamblyn was close to Nobu in the same way.

@@vgg31 is he alive still

@@mikoduterte6702 no

No it isn’t......This wasn’t any acting, from anyone. We all miss Mr.Miyagi especially Daniel-San

@@undecidedcow3398 Completely agree....This wasn't "acting", i think they totally forgot they where "acting" or shooting a take.... This is as REAL as it gets....

But did Daniel open a can of worms, ? In their scenes you could tell she still loved him

@@wookieeMan06 she definitely still loved him.

@@rayraygunner That was clear especially when he asked her about having a family and she said that many had tried to court her but none had fought to the death for her, if that was not a wink it must have been a gigantic spot light on his face.

@MrDeadhead83 It's purely platonic. Daniel would not ever cheat on Amanda.

@@texasrockshillcountry6574 you could tell it was more platonic

I thought miyagi was the perfect man who knew everything

@@theaveragejoe7966 he was, that man was perfect, even when drunk :)

@@theaveragejoe7966 miyagi himself said “nobody perfect”

It makes sense because they were both really close friends.

Very well said

relax lol

@@00tuoyo hey it's ok to Express emotions i felt exactly the same way, I guarantee that 99.9% of these heavy emotional comments are from lifelong fans who grew up in the 80s me being one of them. It's like an extension of our childhood

Real shit, my face had streams down it, haven't cried this hard excluding being drunk and stoned since I lost someone close to me, had to run to the bathroom cause I had to "take a shit" but that's when I broke down, everyone tears up during some movie and show scenes but this hit the hardest

Plus, Nobu McCarthy (Aunt Yukie) had a similar background to Tamlyn Tomita (Kumiko) in real life so she became a close friend and mentor to her after the second movie so Tamlyn wasn't just getting emotional for Pat, she was getting emotional for Nobu as well.

@@00tuoyo aaah here comes the edgelord ... Expressed ur opinion?? Had enough???

Amen to that.

Amen

Amen

Pat lives in the lessons we carry on and pass on to others.

Yesssss. Left him everything

Yes also Julie Pierce his student/daughter.

You’re forgetting another one. Friend. He was also a friend.

Karate cousin, as Daniel put it.

I’m 28 and never grew up with KK. But i watched the first two on Netflix last summer. Just when I felt done, this show instantly hooked me which I didn’t expect to happen

I'm so glad that Chozen found redemption, too! He had some fun at Daniel's expense pretending at first to be the same old nasty Chozen, but that just made it more heartwarming when he revealed that he has changed and become a man that Miyagi and Sato are proud of.

A lot of shows try to build on older shows. But COBRA KAI is the first one in a long time to do it RIGHT. And it's great that so many of the original actors step into their roles, it's as if they never left them, but they grow and develop naturally as people can.

Yes, just like silver and kreese

Tanmee is Japanese for grandfather.

Yes! (I only wish they would have had Daniel tell Sam about that, it would have made the fight with Tory after his picture fell hit deeper.)

@@Rhi28 agreed much more passionate the fight would have been..

@@andrewcolinwilson1 We've had this discussion many times. Tanmee is Uchinaaguchi for grandfather. uchinaaguchi != japanese. It is not a dialect, it is a language.

@@illogicalmethod Yes but, do you remember when I showed you the book I own on the country that Tamlyn Tomita and your family came from? That part of that country where Tamlyn Tomita and your family came from is mentioned in that book. www.amazon.com/Japan-Enchantment-World-Carol-Greene/dp/0516027697

Facts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

An 88 year old Pat Morita wouldn’t be so bad

@@braintyp8959 I would have liked to see him scold Daniel after the reveal that Johnny is Robbie’s dad

Age and sickness don't mix very well my dear friend 😔

But I think he would still be so proud of his friend as well as the new generation he would probably be proud of us as well in a big way

He was 88😅

I had tears-

i guess my chi is weak :-(

I don't get the words at all so I guess my chi is weak

Facts

You maybe right about that.

I wrote an essay in college regarding this same thing, however it was titled "Every child needs a Mr. Miyagi."

he's still here. i kid you not, everytime i wax my car, its wax on wax off. everytime i paint, UP! DOWN! or LEFT! RIGHT!, everytime i sand something, right circle, left circle. and most importantly, always look eye.

I especially lost it when she read "Samantha makes me feels like I'm her Tanme/ Grandfather."

@@darylsfan9680 me too

Yeh, Kreese and Silver can go suck it!

"The ones that love us never really leave us."

I waited over a month after finally catching up on the show. And I won’t forget New Years Day night watching this scene

I have been waiting to see Daniel and Kumiko together again for over 30 years. 😀

Totally agree with you

I think kumiko would have been a great wife to Daniel but glad they are still friends

If she was the wife, we probably wouldn’t get a scene like this lol

True Soul Mates

Dont change the past

I've cried twice. I grew up watching these movies.

I once heard someone say, "A man who does not or never cries is just 'a man,' but a man who can cry and show emotion is 'a human.'" It's OK to cry, mate...cheers! 👍

The best part is he doesn’t say “I feel like Sam’s grandfather” he says “Sam MAKES me feel like her grandfather” Sam must have really loved him

I know right. She was the only Japanese-American celebrity in KK2 who was from Japan.

She looks so gorgeous

@@andrewcolinwilson1 the guy who played Sato was also Japanese, i forget his name, he also did the moves for Shredder in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies back in the day.

@@Jeymez Except the guy who played Sato was born in Hawaii and his name is Danny Kamekona.

@@andrewcolinwilson1 i don't know where he was from, you could be right about Hawaii, but i never said he was from Japan, however he is Japanese though. maybe his parents moved to Hawaii before he was born, there were alot of Japanese that moved to Hawaii after WW2. the girl who played Kumiko is also Japanese American.

@@Badass1974 that too

@@mahad813 well that too

I love the show even more

who would have thought reaching out to the fans works while spitting on the legacy and call the fans scum when they don't like it does not.

🖐

Me 🙋🏽‍♂️

😭😭😭

JEEESUS.... HAVENT CRIED SO LOUD FOR AGES

Yo

As Miyagi would say: your journey to find balance has already begun.

I didn’t expect it

It’ll probably happen in season 6 for the finale. Robby will be the one who takes down Cobra Kai for good.

@@mickyhermit4437 I hope it happens in season 4 or at least in 5

@@arafhamid1785 Same, but I suspect it will at the earliest be the end of season 4.

Thank God, I wasn't the only one who made that connection!!!

Me too but why isn't she wearing her kimono in this scene?

i call bs on that born in 93 and i balled like a baby during this scene. for ive watched all the karate kid films as a kid and i grew up on em just as much you 80s kids.

@@cedricbauman9537 ditto, born the same year and karate kid was one of the earliest films i saw, and even after not seeing the movies for years, watching throwback scenes like these just made me tear up without noticing cuz i was immersed by the emotion.

I was born in 1996 and my first introduction to the Karate Kid franchise was in 2000🤗

I really think Mr. Miyagi is the most likeable character I've ever seen on screen. I can't think of anyone that tops him.

@@darkengine5931 I can't either.

@@shadowspidey7327 When I was a kid watching KK for the first time back in the 80s, I thought he was still a lovable character that I wanted in my family but kind of cheesy. I was kind of a hothead obsessed with ego and popularity and I lacked a father figure growing up. I think I was more Cobra Kai in thinking if you'll forgive my geeky reference. I thought the Miyagi way was only suited for fiction as a way to gain respect. In real life, I thought acting that way will get you teased and bullied; I thought you either fight back eagerly like a man and build that reputation as someone not to be messed with or submit like a coward and build that reputation of an easy target. Miyagi always favored something in between which I thought wasn't very manly until many years later. Now I think he epitomizes the idea of manliness as I see it. I would like to become more like Miyagi now as a former hothead and a show-off. The one other character that I think comes close to an ideal I'd like to strive towards is Captain Picard from Star Trek: TNG days. I didn't watch much Star Trek growing up but I binged on TNG in my 30s and I found the way Picard behaves very wise and well-balanced... badass if needed, fighting if necessary, but without seeking to fight or show off. Stoic without being too boring or robotic... that sort of stuff.

@@darkengine5931 Star Trek next generation is great made a sequel to it too called Star Trek Picard.

As Miyagi has said "the roots are strong so the tree will survive"

Facts!

@Lila Kiki "The Next Karate Kid" does not exist in this dojo. Seriously though, that movie sucked and does not deserve to form part of the Karate Kid franchise. Even the 2010 remake is more passable.

She never said that.

@@iloveutubesince3207 Exactly!!! The ONLY reason I watch clips from that thing is if they have Mr. Miyagi in them!!!
