Cobra Kai: Daniel Visits Johnny's Dojo (Ralph Macchio, William Zabka)

[@mariorave78]

That's what Daniel does different then Mr Miyagi. Daniel goes by himself and jumps into conclusions while Mr Miyagi took a young Daniel with him and settled the agreement of the tournament, giving Daniel a chance to build respect with the Cobra Kais, but not tried to close it down. He only confronted Kreese when the fight was inevitable (when he was choking a young Johnny). Daniel should have brought Kyler with him to discuss the matter

Unfortunately Daniel suffers from what most parents suffers from -My little angel can do no wrong-itis. Johnny just has a reputation for being a bully. The one time Johnny is right, Daniel is not gonna believe him. The writing on this show is awesome. They took 2 facets of each character and turned them on themselves. Great show.

[@anthonymcneil1542]

Daniel doesn't realise that Johnny saving Miguel from Kyler and his friends was the equivalent of Mr Miyagi saving him from Johnny and his friends on Halloween night in the first film

[@jamingrythm584]

Well obviously, that's the point

[@KDawg92801]

I wonder why Johnny didn’t point that out

[@teslagod7221]

No it's not. Miguel had very different situation, he was really badly bullied by those jerks. While daniel kept instigating trouble with johnny. On the beach, johnny never wants to fight daniel, kept urging him to back off, but daniel kept pushing it. Then, daniel bullied johnny while he's on the toilet, so johnny counter attacked... What movie did you watched, it was very far from what happened to Miguel...

Both weren't right. Daniel wasn't calm about the whole thing and didn't question his motives. Meanwhile Johnny clearly had spite with Daniel and worded it in a way that makes him seem horrible. Both were also arrogant. Johnny was right about Sam's friends, Daniel was right to get involved since Johnny still would've accepted Kreese to join back.

[@WORLD8NSH5KNIGHT1]

Daniel annoyed me here. As a victim of bullying himself he should have backed Johnny in standing up to the gang. Instead he let his personal history and the naive sympathy for the gang being 'just teenagers' get in the way. Laruso is fundamentally a good guy but he 'shoots from the hip' too much - reaching conclusions before knowing the facts. Miyagi was more thoughtful.

Daniel came in guns blazing with accusations because like most parents, he didn’t want to believe his child was capable of bad behavior. Sam told A story not THE story. Johnny knew Daniel was wrong and since Daniel came in guns blazing with accusations, Johnny made Daniel look foolish by completing the story and criticizing his parenting. Daniel shoulda gotten the whole story first.

And that's very Johnny, he knew that Daniel was being a fool for putting a foot on his dojo with blazing guns, of course he wouldn't miss a chance on making him look more of a fool and egging him into a fight.

Ugh I used to HATE Daniel in the earlier seasons, he was such a hypocrite. Mr. Miyagi literally did the same thing to defend Daniel and he has the GALL to judge Johnny.
