"Lets learn the funny egg practice" at 11:28 was actually the training method that Chozen was doing at Miyagi-do.

During Japan's Occupation of Korea(1901-1945), Korean arts like Taekkyeon were banned. So, a lot of Koreans had to learn arts like Shotokan and other styles of Karate which were brought back as Tang Soo Do, and the later divergent Taekwondo. That's how you got the Pyung Ahn series of forms. Pyung Ahn is just Pinan in Korean. "Naebojim" is really Naihanchin or Tekki. "Bal-Sek" is Bassai or Passai. If you remember in the original Karate Kid series, Miyagi-sensei mention "my ancestor, go fishing, have too much Sake, end up in China". And it's not just a movie story - Uechi Ryu, Goju Ryu, and to a lesser degree, my first style Shorin Ryu all refer back to China. Many Okinawans originally called Karate " To De" meaning "Tang (China) Hand. Funakoshi re-arranged and renamed Karate to make it famous for mainland Japan, who was fighting with China at the time(almost any karate historian, from the more youtube-friend Jesse Enkamp to the more solidly academic Patrick McCarthy, can confirm this). Tang Soo Do refers back to the Tang Hand. The REAL founders of Tang Soo Do included Won Kuk Lee, Hwang Kee, and Chun Sang Sup who studied under Funakoshi-sensei, Yoon Byung-In who studied under Shudokan founder Toyama Kanken, and Ro Byung Jik who studied Shotokan as well (can't find his teacher.) if you look at Dae Un's fighting style, it has kicks the flow into locks and throws which may suggest a Hapkido influence. Hapkido, again, is a collaborative effort that included the mix of Daito Ryu Aikijujutsu Choi Yong Sool learned from Takeda Sokaku with traditional Taekkyeon.

The magazine cover was Easter eggs to the show. Tung Soo Do, according to the show is the foundation of Cobra Kai style. The funny egg technique is that chosen was doing with the students.

I think its super cool that Anthony is proving himself an able member of the team, but not necessarily as a fighter. I love that they are letting him use his intellect in tandem with karate principles to solve problems. Shows a lot of character development even from last season.

So happy you’re coming out with these reactions so quickly.

As a aïkido trainee I want to thanks you for each time you recognize a technique as aikido technique.

6:52 Vintage Chozen when he was destroying Miyagi's place in Japan with the same weapon in KK2

"Let's learn the funny egg practice!" 😂

I was rolling my eyes with Chozen when they didn't know what Rei meant lol. One of the most basic things a Karateka will ever learn.

10:10 that's the flying kick Miyagi taught Julie in the Monastery in Next Karate Kid

This why yours are my favorite Cobra Kai reactions. Only through you could I learn that Sekai Taikai means World Championships. And a lot of what the Brochure says. Kudos!

I'm guessing the "let's learn the funny egg practice that protects everybody" is an Easter egg (literally) 🥚 about Chozen's lesson.

10:38 i knew you was going to cover this lol

If Yusuke is not in season 6 as a Miyagi descendant, we riot. Who's in?

HAHA i think the magazine has a bunch of easter eggs or foreshadowing for anyone who translates it!! judging especially from the egg protection part..which was what Chozen was teaching at Miyagi-do

Funny how that egg exercise was mentioned in the magazine Terry gave Kreese.

I love your comments and karate connections is like seeing a director cut’s version !

I love how Chozen kept giving them clues about sticking together.

3:15 Even Waku hates Kyler haha

Chosen is my favorite character. He trained the way I would want to be, the old way. You learn lessons other than just the martial arts.

That magazine feels like just a general martial arts magazine that Terry got really obsessed with.

Thank you! Loved the breakdown of the magazine cover.

7:39 thanks for teaching me how to break an egg sensei I can finally eat now 🙏

The Valley is supposed to have an unusually active karate culture in this universe.

soo that magazine cover at 11:34 is alot like the old karate / black belt magazines i used to read. the cover rads like . the articles that are inside. ( and the eggf practice is an easter egg! for what chozen just did)

The black guy is a real ufc mma fighter . His name is Tyron woodley

Whoa another one up so quickly! Also, can’t wait to start classes! I’m signing up.

Love this series!

I can't help but laugh at the way that Chozen is taking down the students. Also, at least Miguel and Sam are still talking. A year ago, she wanted nothing to do with him.

Would have loved to see reaction to ending but hey, gotta love crazy grandpa Naruto running at you like a nut! Terrifying

I’d love to hear your perspective on the Cobra Kai methodology. Kreese and Silver were taught their style in order to survive in a war. Do you think that’s a bad thing? And now Kreese is in prison, able to defend himself even as an old man (I know it is far-fetched, but the entire show is haha). In life or death situations, is Cobra Kai truly bad? When I watch this show, I find myself siding with their martial arts approach because they needed it, and they want to pass that knowledge on. Yes of course kids should not learn it, but… as long as it’s not used for bullying, I find it to be practical to help you survive if needed. I know the whole thing is silly, but I’d still love to hear your comments on that as a modern martial arts practitioner from Japan. Thanks! Keep up the great work on your videos.

Sensei Odell is actually a retired ufc champion, his name is Tyron woodley

The language on the magazine at the end seems more like an Easter egg than them trying to make sense with what was on it

That was Tyrone Woodley in that scene. A UFC fighter

I love your reaction because you were able to tell us what the magazine said.

I never knew about egg in hand trick until you mentioned it !

Bro chozens a cool guy. And how he loves his sais

COBRA KAI NEVER DIES ILL ALWAYS BE COBRA KAI

Cobra Kai never DIES!!!!!!!!

also, like below, SO very happy you are publishing these so quickly. :) i finished 9 by Saturday night and watched 10 Sunday Morning. Feels great to watch the highlights with you so quickly.

Sometimes Netflix translations are incorrect at times.

3:19 ROFL i died when he said that... Kyler will always be acting like this into his 30's

Cobra Kai for Life

in one of the episodes in cobra kai season 5,you can see cobra kai doing a pattern from taekwondo called koryo

Great vid!

The strike looked like a ridgehand, you're pretty much striking with the base of your wrist

Squishing an egg is hard depending on how you do it. The way Chozen did it is not hard, but in a vertical way is really hard.

I study Tang Soo Do, Taekwondo and MMA. I noticed that here, in America, they call almost every, if not every martial arts.... "Karate"

I think the magazine is supposed to be an Easter egg or the trivia from the show not necessarily about Karate in general

Chozen is my favorite character I hope he's around forever

I suppose Devon is the definition of Engle Fang

9:45 I listened again, he indeed said "礼", the subtitle was wrong.

8:01 American professional mixed martial artist Tyron woodley also Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson can be seen in the background he is a karate and mix martial artist champion

You don't need the thumb trick to break an egg with your hand...I learned pretty quickly that an egg isn''t very hard to squeeze til bursting....

10.23 Tyrone Woodley mix martial artist, ex UFC champion. heck of an athlete.

@ 1:10 that is a throat strike from a form or poomsae Koryo(Korea) 1st degree Blackbelt I urge you to look for it here on youtube Very complex form

is mans watching this at 2x speed?

They are. All in a way different forms of karate

The actor might've used something hard hidden in his palm to crack the egg, idk though

200 japanese characters, WHOLE magazine is probably in Japanese, (in theory), but for TV, they put WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP on the cover .... Hilarious !! :D

1:49 That's interesting. Is that only in Japan or other Asian countries? I've always seen that in many Chinese food restaurants here in America.

So I don't think the sekai taikai is a karate tournament I think it might be a Martial arts tournament and that's why it's talking about and showing different martial arts like tang soo do and aikido

Isn't there a Yugioh card called, Neko Mane King? And the monster is a Cat in that exact Pose?

youre great

Very cool Sensi

It's pretty interesting how "karate" has become an umbrella term for various Asian martial arts. In the US there are a fair amount of schools that are called "karate dojos" but the curriculum has nothing to do with Japanese/Okinawan karate. Instead, they focus more on martial acrobatics and "modern forms". I'm not sure who's influence lead this all to happen, but I think it's pretty weird it all ended up like this.

I think the "magazine" was intended to have some fun "Easter Eggs" rather than be a realistic (fake) magazine: The origins of Teng Su Do (I am spelling that wrong) and "the fun egg game" are references to this season. While I get your perspective they probably needed another native speaker to give it a once-over, as compared to the typical Western show, it shows at least some effort. (The average Western show, if they need a fictional Japanese magazine cover, will either have something an intern ran through Google translate, or, even worse, English words printed using a "fortune cookie" font (a font for English letters that looks "Asian"). (And TBF, English writing I've seen on some anime has much the same problem unless the localization team was very on the ball.)

If you hadn't done it already, it would be very interesting to know how many real karate masters were lost on Okinawa during WWII. I seen some were said to have gone abroad, but it's said many were last in WWII. It'd be good to know the facts.

That is a lot of contradiction, indeed. The way it was written and placed looks like they just found the words through translation, common quote generator and random pics. Sekai Taikai is basically WKF now though.

👍

Nice

squeezing an egg from the top and the bottom is hard, the sides it's not that bad

I love ❤️💪🏻 CHOZEN 💪🏻❤️

Here’s an idea maybe don’t announce your attack plan for an enemy to hear.

Damm dude after you ridicularize the karate magazine I subscribbed and became your fan, I realized how much laugh I can do watching USA writting japanese by watching your review.

Well we can't really watch i5 because are not putting right

❤

Is it frustrating how quickly they depict these students learning functional karate?

The Maneki Neko has two variations, a right hand and a left hand moving, right? One for good luck and one for bad luck, am I right? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I think that that black sensei a prof boxer is but im not sure

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥‼️‼️‼️‼️

No he definitely said hai

11:43 That looks like a magazine, so it would make sense, and on top it looks like it says 10,000FP which looks like it's the cost of the magazine or something.. I dunno what FP is. It's definitely not yen. But all the writing is Japanese.. Typical Hollywood stuff :)

Its not hard to squeeze an egg?

learn what characters say in their foreign language please make a list of all of the Japanese or Okinawan phrases or sentences that they use in the show is what I find funny they have English captions that are readable apparently Korean words that are readable nothing for Okinawan or Japanese but we can read you have tic tok

The egg traing is no different than training with a mouth full of water which helps you to control your breathing. No disrespect I don't agree with so of the stuff you say but in other ways you are very knowledgeable. What rank are you I've asked a few times

Chuck norris tang soo do is better and american Patriot terry silver is bad evil for kids😅

It's called a spear hand. There's a spear technic in Japan's karate. What rank are you

First😊❤️

RIP Sensei John Kreese 🙏
