Moon in season one: *laughs at Hawk for his cleft lip* Moon in season 2: "I don't want to date a bully"

I know the words “Hawk.. Fall in” meant way more than any apology

If Cobra Kai was a superhero series, Eli would have the perfect super villain origin.

That's what you get when you take a bullied shy guy, fill him with paranoid delusions and get him into the most badass karate dojo in town.

“Brothers dont look at sisters like that” “Depends on what part of the country you’re in” Lmao.

The hawk sound effect when he scores a point kills me.

Hawk: *"I am flipping the script"* Johhny: *"Nice cut G!"*

Being Demitri's friend is enough to drive anyone mad. Hawk's a legend

I love when Johnny yells “ QUIET” sounds like the teenage him 😂😂😂

Hawk is a legend. Best character in Cobra Kai. Hats off!

That's what I love about Eli in this show, they portray him to be this shy and weak individual so we develop an intense understanding of his later relentless nature. He's an antagonist that you can understand and relate to.

Hawk was bullied ruthlessly, everywhere he went before he got the Mohawk and got confidence, was everybody just making fun of his lip which was cruel. He probably tried to make friends and chat up girls before, and they just made fun of his lip. And Johnny making fun of him for that was the last straw for him, so he changed his look and gradually became more confident. Unfortunately, due to how Hawk was treated in his past, he now believes that if he isn't aggressive, no one will take him seriously. Miguel was only bullied by Kyler, and didn't have anything to really make fun of, so it wasn't as bad for him as it was for Hawk.

I see Hawk becoming Kreece's #1 Student.

I can totally imagine Hawk shouting "GET HIM A BODY BAG!" now.

“Brothers don’t look at their sisters like that” “Depends what part of the country you’re in” SWEET HOME ALABAMA

All that matters is that you become BADASS

Miguel and hawk both are badass!!!

The best parts though are where he still acts like a kid and not some insane crust punk. Like, "They don't know, I'll probably have to wear a T shirt until college...please don't tell them."

Robby is in no position to make fun of anyone’s hair.

"Nice cut bro" I love this man

Hawk: My doctor said I could be in the spectrum. Johnny: I don't know what any of that means but you better get out of it. The best sensei around.

All that Hawk has to do left is yell "Get him a body bag, yeahhh!!!!"

The scene where Eli tells his mom he will never have any friends and then cutting to him getting a tattoo is probably my favourite scene in the show

Hawk has one of the best written characters ever made.

Robbie has no business making fun of anyone's hair.

I lost it when he broke out the tattoo 😂. I have never been so blown away with a piece of nostalgia coupled with new ideas ever! This show is absolutely brilliant.

Eli: Doctors said I might be on the spectrum Johnny: I dunno what that is, but get off it pronto. HAHA, love johnny.

Cobra Kai Never Dies 🐍 Strike First 💪 Strike Hard 💥 No Mercy 👊

I love the hawk sound effects when they say "One point to Hawk" at 11:17

hawk is definitely cobra kai material, i see miguel and aisha applying what they've learned in combat but hawk pretty much lives the cobra kai philosophy, i see him being kresse's new right hand man after he finds a way to dethrone barnes

I like how the start of the story how Eli was the quiet kid at school. He joined Cobra Kai and left because he got sick of getting picked on by Johnny. Then He shows up the next day with a badass haircut and tattoo

Some people might see it as abusive and humiliating but Johnny wasn't making fun of anybody. He was toughening them up. Johnny has a point when he said that the real world is cruel and won't always act like how you want it to. People will make degrading comments about you and make fun of you. You can't have an emotional breakdown because of it. Otherwise, you are weak. That is what Johnny was trying to convey to his students in the first place. Nowadays generation gets easily upset and distraught whenever something doesn't go there way.

7:23 I like how Demetri is just allowed to tag along with all the major Cobra Kai students like it's nothing. At least it shows that the students haven't become too savage yet and still remember their other friends.

Hawk is the most tragic character on the show

Still can’t believe Hawk is the quiet kid

Hawk is the most badass character in the show

I like Eli's arc because it shows what is so great and complex about the show. Johnny is sometimes rough on the kids and he acts somewhat immature at times but he teaches his students some really good lessons. He teaches them discipline, confidence and assertiveness. These are all skills that really help in adulthood. Look how much he helps Eli by giving him self esteem.

I think Demetri is gonna be on Daniel's team. It would make sense because Demetri doesnt agree with Cobra Kai's terms. I can see Demetri Vs. Hawk happening next season

Closely looking at Eli's character I feel like him and Aisha are gonna have the biggest character archs in next season. The moment where Eli loses the fight against Demitri he gets permanent scars not only in the loss, but his understanding that he's not as strong as he's letting on to believe. Because he underestimated his opponent who wasn't his enemy to begin with it was his best friend. At the end of the season when Miguel falls over the railing the first person in the shot over his body is Hawk. Letting me further to believe that he's going to hold a deep resentment and hatred for himself for striking first, but without mercy. Leading to the fight ending so shockingly. Aisha on the other hand didn't get a moment at the end of the season to show any impact to the outcomes that followed between Miyagi Dojo or Cobra Kai so in shame for not being there to defend either of her friends she mistakenly follows Kreese's guidance becoming darker less merciful. And he saves both himself and her resulting in them joining Johnny with Daniel in fixing both Dojos philosophy into one. A balanced one.

Before I got into this show I had heard talk of a very extreme character called Hawk. When he made his first big entrance I was like ‘Wait... the quiet meek lip kid is Hawk??’ And he just continued to impress from there...

I love this kid and his character....the friggin back tatt had me rolling.

Sam's friend makes fun of Eli. Then choses him later as Hawk. Revenge is sweet.

Lol! I just realized his fake id had "Walter Hawkman" on it: 9:21

I miss Aisha, Miguel and Hawk friendship 🥺

Hawk is the mvp, now he just needs to understand the flaw in Cobra Kai' third rule and adjust

Hawk is my favorite character

Turning his moon tattoo in to a reaper scythe was a great touch

Eli’s progression to Hawk was so god damn fire I felt like a proud father.

The new generation needs Johnny Lawrence.

Hawk is badasss. But he's just too wild. If he toned down his energy a little bit, he'll a perfect character.

I love hawk even when he is a jack ass I hope crease doesn’t make his character evil

“Brothers don’t look at there sisters like that” “In some parts of the country they do” Sweet home Alabama

He looks like romanatwood

I bet Hawk will be Kreese's underling.

If Hawk didn't kicked Robby's back he could won.

Of all the characters and all the transformations, even the original characters of Daniel and Johnny, it’s Eli to Hawk that fascinates me the most from a psychological perspective. He goes from the persecuted and bullied and morphs into what he used to hate and detest-an asshole. He lost his kindness and his tenderness in exchange for bravado and rage. No one tells him that he can stay true to who he is in his heart and still be kind AND be a badass at the same time. The actor playing him is phenomenal. Right down to the nuance of his head tilt and how it changes. His transformation, for me, is the most dramatic, tragic, and exhilarating of all the characters.

Hawks recovery from the chest kick to the counter flying elbow looked badass

I definitely liked his transformation. I think in season two Hawk will fully embrace the darkside and Kreese or Barnes may become his new Sensei.

"The Dr. Says i might be on the spectrum." "I don't know what that is, but get off it pronto!" 🤔🤔🤔😂😂 I do not mean any disrespect to anyone who is autistic. But that was hilarious!!!

10:46 The combination of the smoothness and the badassery...pretty nice

Johnny(King Karate) is the man! He literally transformed all these prissy kids almost to the level of the old school CK practically overnight..

I like how this shows that the ones that are bullied often become bullies later in life.

He said I'm a plastic surgeon, I fix lips... I'm dead....

Even Miguel looked annoyed at Hawk for cheating when he got off the mat. You'd think he'd be the first to cheer that Robbie had been injured.

This cast choice was amazing

I like lip's bad ass transformation into hawk - it's a kind of revenge.

“What do you get when you mix a mentally ill loner with a society that abandons him and treats him like trash? You get what you deserve” -Joker

This is literally how villains are born Every Villain has a back story Literally every Villain.

I hope they put that hawks cry sound effect in the background whenever Hawk does something cool in Season 2

Miguel is not bad he just need to know when to take it easy. Hawk is not bad either he just need to chill sometimes.

This series shows how hard Karate actually is to learn because you need to learn how to defend yourself as well as control yourself. Once you know how to defend yourself you need to know not to be overconfident. You need to control yourself and that's how you will truly succeed.

“I’m not gonna say names, but a mother came to me of a kid crying because of them making fun of their face deforming!” Yea didn’t have to say a *NAME*

All that's left is for him to get a pet Hawk. Transformation Complete.

One of my favorite characters! His transformation is inspiring. A change of mindset can change your path. Badass!!!

The writers wrote his character really well, the actor played him even better, he’s basically gone from playing an insecure introvert to basically the exact opposite.

I like that Dimitri instantly accepts Miguel as a friend by saying “I’d kill both of you just to have her spit in my face” it’s of course a strange way of putting it but to me it means he sees them as a trio already

Hawk is pretty much Dutch, but with better hair

He's a plastic surgeon. He fixes lips.

Looking back Demitri actually really picked on Eli when they were both nerds. Could of been a reason why he hated Demitri so much

''who the hell did that'' lol litterly just looks away and acts normal lmaooooo I was dying.

Hahahahaha Eli: 'The...doctor says I could be on the spectrum...' Johnny: 'I don't know what that is, but get off it. Pronto.'

This Kid is awesome!! when kids flip the script, chances are they will succeed in adulthood.

Hawk has had one of the best developments of the series along with tory

Wow!!! What a transformation!!!! To say that Eli and Hawk are like Night and Day is a massive understatement.

Hawk!!! Flip the script!

I like Hawk.. he is a badass.. I hate Robbie lol.. #TeamCobraKai

Hawk and Miguel are homies, they literally beat anyone, they are badass.

Eli went from being nerdy to becoming rebellious real quick.

Hawk wasn’t a nerd. In the story he was borederline slow. Would be nice to see more of the story focus on the students vs the past group. I like the Cobra Kai for taking the kids the other class would not.

I love Hawk. I hope Demetri has his transformation soon too.

He's probably a really deep character, but I can't take him seriously with that hair. Or how he flexes his tattoo with his scrawny shoulders

Kyler: "It's the kid with the lip! I thought he moved!" Hawk: "Didn't move, got reborn. You won't be so fortunate..."

This dude is awesome, one of the shows best and entertaining characters.

He flipped the script. So many people should take a page out of Hawk’s book.

"Leaving early to fix that stupid haircut?"😂😂😂Says the guy with the Dora the Explorer Haircut

"It's the kid right there!" Gets me everytime lol

"Prepare to face the fury of the hawk"

No lie, Hawk's haircut is lit.

Johnny apparently is Jesus: 1) 04:19 Johnny cured his autism! 2) Have you noticed Hawk's lip scar has gotten smaller since training under Johnny? 3) Previously, Miguel had asthma; he hasn't had any symptoms since Johnny slapped the asthma pump out of his hand.

Eli is lowkey one of my fav characters.
