Sato (Danny Kamekona) was a long time family friend. Back in the mid 90's, a couple years before he passed away, we'd frequently go to Hawaii Football and Baseball games. Danny was good friends with Pat (Mr. Miyagi) and would drive his vehicle to the games. He was super cool and low key, never had his nose in the air.

From KK2 to Cobra Kai Chozen went from super hateable to super lovable. I remember after I watched this at the theater in 86, I walked around 4th grade telling everyone they had insulted my honor. 😂

filmed on O'ahu in Hawai'i! fun fact: the girl on the bell tower that Daniel saved went on to win the title of Miss Hawai'i 1995...

The girl that rang the alarm bell saved Danial's auto group in Cobra Kai season 3, and yes, it's the same actress.

"Is there a jail in this town?" Yeah, I thought the same thing way back when I first saw this movie. I guess Chozen just picked himself up and slinked on home afterwards.

This is my favorite of the first three. I loved getting a deeper look at Miyagi's past and his roots. Plus, this story took everything Daniel learned in the first movie and put it into a real life conflict situation. This was not a tournament match, but a fight to the death. Upon my first time seeing this I was a pre-teen. Kumiko has always been my favorite of the first three leading ladies. This story also strengthened the idea even further for me that Daniel had become the son that Miyagi had lost.

One scene from KK2 that has stayed with me, which sadly isn't included in this video, was the scene with the dojo ad. I think it's great at showing Mr. Miyagi's mentality.

Yes, it's the same Kumiko in CK season 3. Plus the girl who Daniel saved is the same actress who is the lead salesperson for Doyona that returns the favor to Daniel and his business.

7:18 Daniel: This is the secret of your family's karate? Myagi: Hai Daniel: I don't get it... Miyagi: Practice... Later you will slap big island bully with it...

I think you only miss Johnny because you have watched Cobra Kai. Having watched all three movies when they came out (long before Cobra Kai), I can tell you, by movie 2, Johnny wasn't missed at all. I hate to tell you there is no Johnny in movie 3, but it is a very good movie for seeing a fall and rise of the Daniel character. I enjoyed the reaction; hope you do one for movie 3! :)

Wow, can’t believe you ladies have watch Cobra Kai before seeing the movies. Granted cobra Kai is doable without the movies but so much more so having seen the movies. Much more appreciation for who the legacy characters were, the call backs, Easter eggs, and some actual dialogue lifted and used in Cobra Kai. Hopefully you also watched Part 3 before season 5.

I loved the first movie and loved the beginning of this movie where Mr. Miyagi faces the other teacher and embarrasses him and quotes to Daniel about someone with no forgiveness in heart not living an optimum life or something to that effect. It has been awhile since I have seen the movie but that scene and statement has always stuck with me.

I like when "Daniel says I never had someone say they were going to kill me before. I like because "Daniel is tougher and had no rules. And I love the relationship between "Daniel and the girl. This is my favorite. Great video you two 🌺

Sato has the best voice ever YOY ARE COVERED!!!

The Karate Kid franchise really is one of those that withstood through all three movies.

Just a few points to clarify: The reason Chozen was so mad on that earlier scene was b/c Daniel found a weight Chozen was using to cheat the scales for the produce he was selling, so he could get away with charging more money; which was why the customers became angry at Chozen. Chozen was going so hard at Daniel b/c he was Mayagi's student, and he hated Myagi b/c of his uncle...so, it's understandable within the context of the story... When Sato was telling Myagi the village would be destroyed, he wasn't saying that was the condition if Myagi lost the fight; he was saying that's what he'd do if Myagi didn't show up to the fight; he was just trying to ensure Myagi would show. And when Sato was stuck under the beam and was talking trash to Myagi when Myagi's hand was raised in the chopping position, he thought Myagi was going to kill him; he didn't know Myagi was going to chop the beam and help him, so that's why he was mad; b/c with his mentality, he assumed that's what a person would do. lol. Also, no Johnny in part 3...and I think if you had watched the Karate Kid before watching Cobra Kai, you would likely deem Johnny as a meaner villain; he's not as bad as Chozen, but remember he pushed Daniel down a cliff while Daniel was on his bike; and remember how brutally he beat him up at that halloween dance until Myagi saved him... Johnny didn't seem as bad b/c Myagi made a deal with Cobra Kai not to attack Daniel while training for the tournament; if not for that, Johnny would have been terrorizing Daniel probably as bad as Chozen. Karate Kid came out 30 years before Cobra Kai and everyone thought Johnny was a complete dick; but then Cobra Kai came out and altered the public's perception, and we invested in Johnny's redemption story. Which is why people who watched Cobra Kai BEFORE the Karate Kid movie don't think Johnny was all that bad. But...he WAS. lol. he was actually on my short list of best villains. he was the perfect villain you want to see defeated... But he does have a really good redemption story in Cobra Kai, so I see why you and many others like him. Chozen has a good redemption story in Cobra Kai, as well. You probably should watch Karate Kid 3 before Cobra Kai seasons 4 & 5. KK3 is not nearly as good as the first two; the screenwriting took a major decline. But Terry Silver is another excellent villain; but the way they wrote him he was a bit over-the-top; had the writing been better, they would have toned him down a bit and he'd have been even more memorable. Mike Barnes is a good villain, as well. You should definitely watch even if you don't do a reaction video. Good to see you listen to the comments and watch this one; I was really curious to see your opinion since you liked the first one so much.

I believe you two didn't fully grasp with the movie is that Japanese culture has respect for honor in the warrior lifestyle ingrained in it's national history. Even today family honor is highly upheld still. Sato's grudge was not really exaggerate as you would think, especially even more 40 years ago! Sato wasn't gonna destroy the village if he won, only if Mr Miyagi still didn't show up at 12am! Sato still couldn't wait any longer for his honor! Great reaction you 2! Can't wait for karate kid 3 Terry Silver is a blast!

Its so weird to see them all so young,.. I just got done watching the new season of cobra kai and felt like watching these all again 🙂 great video ❤

Funny how Chozen becomes my fav. character in season 5😃 Great reaction like usual 🙂

In season 3, the little girl Daniel saved is a big whig in a Japanese corporation and she offers to help Daniel with his car business. As well, Chozen "fights" Daniel and honks his nose and laughs.

Since you have both seen CK season 3... There was a point in that season, after Daniel returned from Okinawa, where Daniel takes Sam to the All Valley Tournament Arena, and showed her the very spot where he almost gave in to fear...He was not referring to KK1 or KK2 (which, obviously, took place in Okinawa, not the valley)... It was the brutal final match in KK3 he was referring to...

I love Cobra Kai , I love Sam and Tory,along with Hawk,Miguel,Johnny and Daniel when you really get to know them

One of my favorite childhood movies. #1 will always be a classic. Thank you for the ❤ reaction

One of my favorite movie franchises growing up that taught so many lessons

Both one and two have strong points for each of them, and it's hard to choose which is better. I love the "Mr Miyagi" back story in this along with Daniel's growth as a character. A lot of heart. The way the movie opens up right at the end of the first movie was a nice touch. By the way, the weights Chosen was using on his scales were bad, and meant to skew in his favor. Daniel exposed him as a cheater, which is why Chosen hated him so much. I loved Chosen in Cobra Kai, especially season 5, to see his turn around as a character is cool. Getting to see Daniel stand side by side with Johnny and Chosen in the show as friends, is great. You are both right. Daniel's girlfriend in this movie does make an appearance in the series, along with the girl Daniel saved. 3 is my least favorite of the movies, but it's where Terry Silver comes in, so there is that. Great reaction Ladies, I enjoyed it. You both are radiantly beautiful as always. Siskel and Ebert can't compare. Lol. 😎

Really like 1 and 2 but for some reason part 3 was the most rewatchable for me back in the day. Now cobra kai just nailed it all with the connections.

Wow! I loved your reaction for the first Karate Kid. I didn't know you were going to watch the sequel.

I like part 2 the best because it was literally life or death. Plus... you don't have to sit through finding out who Miyagi is, and Daniel getting to know him. All of that has been established (in part 1), so we can jump right into things in KK2. Also... both Miyagi and Daniel have personal conflicts (throughout the film), not just Daniel this time. And lastly, the beautiful Okinawa architecture, and scenery... although (this was actually filmed in Hawaii...lol).

I need to watch these movies again. It's been much too long since I've seen them. They're not only classics but just plain good stories. We're sorely lacking in good stories

I've been spending a lot of my time on KZfaq lately watching reaction videos, and I just happened to come across your Karate Kid I video followed by this one. Not bad reactions, ladies! Sato's actor, Danny Kamekona, was actually Polynesian (specifically, he was from Hawaii), but he still had Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and Irish(!) roots. Also, as you may know he, Pat Morita (Miyagi's actor) and Yukie's actress have since passed away. In fact, just about everyone that was in their fifties during the first two Karate Kid films are no longer with us.

Romy and Michelle! Wow that’s cool!

Hands down one of the greatest sequels in movie history and great soundtrack with "Glory of Love"

I love all the karate kid movies but the first one is definitely the best! Hope y’all watch part 3 before cobra Kai season 5. Also the little girl Daniel saved in storm is the same girl and actress from season three that saved his car dealership

Granted there really wasn’t screen time given for this, but Chozen’s redemption arc is almost as good as Johnny’s. The Cobra Kai creative team have done an incredible job in adding depth to those characters

Did you know? The scenes with Kreese, Johnny and Miyagi was meant to be the ending of KK1; but producers decided to use it for the sequel instead.

This is my personal fave of the 3 KK movies. Love the location which it actually located in Okinawa which originated Karate. It's perfect for Karate goers at the time back in circa 1987.

The scene with Sato pinned under the board reminds me of Monty Python's Holy Grail. Chozen "Uncle's dead", Sato "I'm not dead yet". 🤣

KK2 was the first movie I saw in the theater without my parents when I was 14

Τhe Best ! These 2 Flicks were amazing classics,now you understand what the Hype of Cobra Kai series is about !

Nice I’ve been waiting for this since I saw your KK reaction. Also just a head up KK3 only has Johnny in the beginning recap like this movie. KK3 deals mostly with the Terry Silver situation so that should be the most relevant to the events of cobra Kai season 5.

This is defiantly an age thing. I'm 49 and these women are younger than me by a lot. It was seen as a bit old school in the 80's. But not shocking. But insulting someone's honor just once was a serious issue still in the 80's. But this was before most of the world had been touched by "Western" culture. But these women would have never seen that being born in the 90's.

Your reactions are awesome. These were some of my favorite movies growing up. I highly suggest watching Karate Kid 3 before season 5 of Cobra Kai. It will really help the season make sense and more enjoyable.

Thanks ladies. This was my jam back in the day i remember my dad my best friend and his dad all went to see this on day one . ( i was obsessed with this ) i prefer this one myself

I love this movie! you all did an excellent review and I really enjoyed hearing your opinions on the film

Fantastic reaction video angels 😇👩🏻‍🦰😇👩🏻 !!! I cannot decide which I like better 1 or 2. For me “Karate Kid II “ was even more impactful with the range of emotions that were emoted throughout the film. Much more serious and even more life lessons than the KK 1 had. “This not tournament, this is real !” As wise Mr. Miyagi eloquently put so well 😊 the romantic element was great as well. Both Daniel son and Mr. Miyagi got the girl 🥰💕👍🏻

Karate Kid II was a little derivative. It hit all the right beats, you just recognized the beats from the first movie. Still, the whole movie was very enjoyable.

Can't believe you all didn't spot Chozen right away. Hes balder now but still the same dude in Cobra Kai season 3.

Watching two beautiful ladies reacting to an amazing eighties sequel........this is nerd heaven 🤓.

Great movie. Strong follow up. Again excellent work Ladies ❤!

double L and reds :) are choppin part 2 .. awesome way to start the weekend😎

Ciao ladies. Just discovered your channel. Usually watch Dasha the Russian movie reviewer but I like both your styles-especially the 😍 real redhead. I'll watch more.

Tamlyn Tomota has been this along with being in The Joy Luck Club,The Good Doctor tv series,The Day After Tomorrow,The Tekken movie,the tv series Babylon 5,and many other projects,and my favorite the Teen Wolf tv series

you know...best thing about this movie...peter cetera...i said it...glory of love rocked out nineteen eighty six and also boston WRACKS

I like them both. The first one overall is my favorite. But part 2 is a great sequel to it. That one i seen in the theater.

Fun Fact Mortal Combats Character Scorpion's Outfit was modeled/based off of Chozen Final fight scene Outfit

15:55 No, what Sato was saying is that if Miyagi doesn't show up, then he will destroy the village. The deal was that regardless who wins the fight, the deed to the land will go to the village, therefore the village will be safe.

Alternate ending Daniel: Live or die man? Chozen: Live Daniel: WRONG! proceeds to snap chozen’s neck

How did y’all not watch all three karate kids before watching cobra Kai 😂 but alreast your catching up.

I cry every time I watch this ending!!! Yaah. I’m a big sissy!

Awesome videos, you ladies are also easy on the eyes.

I liked it better because I liked Miyagi more than Johnny, the Japanese girlfriend more than 1st one. Daniel telling Miyàgi about his Dad dying was better than him giving Daniel the car. And him breaking the ice with big money bet, pressure..Was better than the tournament, and his last fight was better than final vs Johnny. Plus the music was better too, PeterCetera, Glory of Love!

You missed the part where Miyagi says, "Win or lose, the title goes to the village."

The cops officially do not exist in the Karate Kid universe.

I’m now writing episode 3 now for my version of Cobra 🐍 Kai Season 7 where the 2010 remake characters crossover with them

Both Chozen and Kumiko appear in Cobra Kai season 3, and the little girl Daniel saves is the one that saves his business in season 3. You really should have watched The Karate Kid III before watching Cobra Kai seasons 4-5, as they are both tied very closely to that film.

Love watching your reactions! Makes the movie so much better! 😊

Fun fact he said the prop guy messed up an he punched out a real car window..that's what he said on Letterman

In the third part of Karate Kid, you'll meet the villain Terry Silver, who also appears in Cobra Kai, so it wouldn't be a bad idea to watch that one as well and complete the trilogy before going all the way to Cobra Kai.

Gotta hurry and watch number 3 before reviewing Cobra Kai Season 5

The thing about the orients is that especially at that time the woman has really no say so if she was patroved to Soto and she did not marry him then the repercussions was that she was probably disowned by her family. Also with honor there honor is a serious thing and it can last up until the day you die. To Soto everything he was doing he was trying to get back his honor and by giving yaki 3 days to mourn was his sign of respect for his teacher because he didn't have respect for his teacher he will have killed or tried to kill miyagi right then and there. She was basically the ruler of the village because of how rich he was in a sense he owned the village it's about the same way as you look at the head of like a mafia or a big time gang that runs that area you talk back to them you pay the consequences.

I think you misunderstood the terms of Miyagi and Sato's fight. If Miyagi FIGHTS Satos, Sato must pass the title to the land to the village. Miyagi doesn't have to win, he just has to fight. Sato threatens to destroy the village if and only if Miyagi backs out of the fight. Of course, by now, you know the point is academic

My wife is what they call "Kabocha Atama"...'Potato Head..it's Japanese slang for a farmer girl. She could have replanted that entire crop in about 3 seconds....lol

This reaction made me want to watch KK again. Will you be reviewing all the cobra kai episodes?

I’m just here for the cute reactions.😍

Two of my favourite reactors.

13:22 I always find it sad how that cute woman in purple gets crushed. :(

"The Happytime Murders" w/Melissa McCarthy (SNL).

Good thing you folks watched Karate Kid 2, before watching Season 5. But I would also suggest watching Karate Kid 3, before watching Season 5 also, since it involves Karate Kid 2 and 3. But I liked Karate Kid 3 the most out of the Karate Kid movies, and a bit of The Next Karate Kid too, the one with the lady.

Yuji Okumoto was a fox!

This is my favorite one

Speculation: When Miyagi brought in the condition that the village be saved no matter who wins the fight with Sato, I believe Miyagi would've just let Sato kill him. After all, he already got what he wanted out of it, & he'd been trying to resolve the matter peacefully. When it became clear Sato wouldn't entertain an amicable resolution, Miyagi decided his life was a small price to pay for the village.

Daniel is the Steve Roger of Marital Arts films. LANGUAGE!!!

That guy is Chozen at the end that Daniel won

I like them both equally. 5 stars for both. The difference between the two for me was that KK1 was more of a realistic true story type of thing, whereas KK2 was way more of a ‘80s over the top fantasy film. I didn’t get to see karate kid 1 in the theater, but I did for the 2nd. KK2 came out in the summer of ‘86, so I would’ve been 10 going on 11 and I loved it. I had some of the toys and everything. I still remember some of the trailers and tv spots for the film. One of them if I’m not mistaken was of Pat Morita in the lobby of a theater eating popcorn and talking about KK2 and advertising the film. I been trying to find it on KZfaq to no avail. Have you guys seen Gremlins yet? If you haven’t, BOY ARE YOU GIRLS IN FOR A TREAT! What can I say, another excellent reaction from you fine girls. 🍿🎥🎞🎬📽👍

Karate Kid 3 is probably the weakest out of the first 3 Karate Kid movies but received praise for the actor who played Terry Silver (one of villains in the movie). Even though the movie might be a little weak compared to the first 2 you should probably watch it before watching the 4th and 5th seasons of Cobra Kai. A lot of the plot from seasons 4 and 5 mainly evolves around Karate Kid 3.

I hope you saw part III as well before this season. The Terry Silver stuff would make more sense.

This my favorite of the original 4 films.

10:32 What he broke was a fake weight. Farmers now knew that they were being ripped off...

I have always thought Karate Kid 2 was a little bit better than the first one, but thinking about it now, I think there are both equally as good. Just to let you know, Karate Kid 3 is not very good at all, but you will want to watch it anyway as it will be important to follow Cobra Kai.

This is so good and really funny

The are both so fine, but Natalie is a 12 out of 10. My goodness

watching this now 💛

Daniel broke the weight because he knew they were ripping them people off when he picked up the weight and said what is this he knew what they were doing that’s why the weight broke like that so easily

It’s a good movie 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Yes thats her season 3

Great movie I like next sequel the best and it is the key movie for season 5 of Cobra Kai. Fyi The scene in the start of the movie in the parking lot was suppose to be in the first movie but they moved to the this movie.

KK3 is the last one you need to watch really. I guess if you're a completist, part 4 is a one time watch.

11:19 There in Japan, that shits no joke

I basically agree with y'alls rankings. Great movie, but not quite as good as the first. But the first one is so good the sequel really never had a chance to top it, there weren't any flaws in it to correct so how do you make something better?
