[@mmg1800]

I love William Zabka, he is so natural.

[@Sweetish_Jeff_]

Marysol MG He and so many in this cast deserve Emmy nominations.

[@OG_Fernando]

@@Sweetish_Jeff_ He got robbed last year!

[@CuddleBuddee]

Kreese got him when he started talking about second chances and doing it right...something Johnny himself had just accomplished. Struck home. Hence the change of heart on letting Kreese back in.

[@infinity_sh4816]

Yeah that’s what I thought too xD, Johnny got a second chance and he is changing him self for the better and he also saw kreese in the same position so he decides to give him a second chance and help him but of course kreese doesn’t really want to change haha

[@XRos28]

Did you notice the picture of the man next to Mr Miyagi that Daniel hung up in the Dojo? His name is REALLY Mr Miyagi from Okinawa and he is the one that invented the Okinawan Gogo-Ryu Karate system that they are practicing at Miyagi-Do.

[@XRos28]

Does Daniel even realise he's literally setting up a romance between his daughter and his arch enemy's son?

[@theproblem9938]

yeah lol i was thinking the same thing

[@thegalacticgalaxy2078]

Then poor Robby got into a rebound relationship without even noticing it until it was too late

[@BamBam-3886]

[@thegalacticgalaxy2078]

@@BamBam-3886 yeah. I prefer Sam and Miguel but Robby didn’t deserve to get played like that.

[@BamBam-3886]

@@thegalacticgalaxy2078 the only thing i hate about what happened is that Robby is still getting punished. He doesn't his dad anymore because he puts Miguel first over everything, Daniel lied and betrayed him when Robby looked up to him as a father figure, Sam lied and used him when Robby has shown how much he loves her and protected her and then Miguel instantly starts getting back with her

[@adamromero]

One of the things I love about this show is that the flashbacks are the original movies with the same actors but younger, thats as good as it gets! The exception being the recast young Johnny scenes.

[@Sweetish_Jeff_]

atom The kid who they cast as young Johnny looks more like William Zabka than the actor who plays Robbie.

[@saber26ful]

Jay Emm seriously Robbie looks nothing like Johnny

[@66RainySuper]

So funny that Johnny painted the Challenger and put a Pioneer cassette player in the car straight from the 80’s

[@santiagomunez3633]

So he can play His AC DC cassette! 🤘

@@santiagomunez3633 don't forget he also low key loves Speedwagon. Lol

[@chronocross85]

Cobra Kai reactions are the reason why I started following you guys

[@therealmfbtl]

I honestly loved the complete non-reaction you both had when the "side dab" moment happened. I think my reaction was an insta-face palm.

[@mcgilj1]

Wasn't the face palm reaction implied and intended?

[@leenoone5659]

You will both love this season. I watched your breaking bad. Stranger things. Reactions aswell

[@tracybillingsley2648]

This Season is even better than the first. I can't wait to see how you guys like it. Keep up the phenomenal work.

[@BanditoBurrito]

I love Cobrai Kai. Love how Johnny and Kreese are completely disgusted by how kids are now lmao. Always funny.

[@JDY-11]

Ep 1 & 2 were good slow builders. 3-10 are all FANTASTIC for me. Looking forward to Ep 3 tomorrow 😁

[@ismaelperez2912]

The one that shocked me the most was 10 just like season 1 episode 10 got me

[@jcastrowhite08]

Ismael Perez 2x10 had me messed up for like a couple days. That hurt

[@kellylee6844]

No the cement truck scene is not possible BUT it's cobra kai so we let that one side 😊

[@alvexok5523]

Yeah, nobody would be able to make it spin from the inside like that. It was obviously spinning from the mixer actually being switched on when we saw it spinning from the outside of the truck. And the inside shots were obviously not really inside the mixer, they were inside some kind of little tunnel that can spin, like those spinning tubes you can run inside of on playgrounds, this one filled with wet cement to make it look like the mixer.

[@ZenShroud1]

@@alvexok5523 Also, you don't want wet concrete on your skin for too long lol.

[@abeartheycallFozzy]

And you dont mix it by hand without at least a dust mask. A lot of kids took a year off their life that day.

[@FitPatton]

John Kreese resembles Hoggle from Labyrinth? Bwahahahahaha 😂😂😂😂

[@jamesedjones]

Defeat! Does not exist - in this labyrinth!

[@nightgarden26]

You guys are hard on Daniel...he was like a son to Mr Miyagi...Daniel is trying to carry on his legacy...his face should be on the wall one day....and who knows...maybe if the balance works out...Johnny's face could be there too

[@NikkiStevenReact]

nightgarden26 I have been hard on Daniel since the very first season. He let success and money go to his head. Feels like he’s balancing things out. Him and Johnny will absolutely be teaming up. -S

[@Okkotsu86275]

@@NikkiStevenReact But why.

[@p.p3152]

@@NikkiStevenReact the success and money wasn’t the issue with Daniel, it was cobra Kai, he may have a bad history with Johnny but when they first met, he repaired his car without even realising his daughter was part of the destruction, the rivalry restarted because Johnny reopened Cobra Kai, which put Daniel on edge, he thought that cobra Kai would corrupt the kids of the valley, which he was kinda right about, the kids had no honour in the all valley, and when Kreese returned and stole Cobra Kai, Daniel’s fears were more true than ever. Daniel has a bad history with cobra Kai and he wants to avoid that repeating with others, Johnny’s not a bad guy and he’s always trying to do the right thing, but so is Daniel, he might judge Johnny at times but that’s because he struggles to shake off those times when Johnny hurt him back in high school

[@genrejohn84]

The guy that Robbies mom brought home is DJ from the Walking Dead. Reformed Savior who's head was on a pike.

[@shizaanimations7634]

As a person who is Gen Z, like the kids in Cobra Kai, I can say with complete confidence that I have no fucking clue what a snake-do is and I have a good feeling none of the cast did either before that one scene

[@ZeZeMichael]

I'd rather have a parent that isn't there but is constantly trying to be vs a parent who is always there but is constantly trying to get away.

[@jonp5338]

Johnny got the car Daniel gave him repainted. The Twitter and Instagram info was pretty cool. The call backs aren’t forced and Pat Morita’s daughter was involved with the series

[@jonahhex9620]

He repainted the car Daniel Larusso gave him with Cobra Kai black and yellow. My Mom was the same way. But I was 8 to 12 years old when she’d disappear for a week at a time

[@williamfarmer578]

Oh man i haven't watched this season yet. I really REALLY enjoyed the first, being a child of the 80's. Gonna have to start watching it so i can Watch these.

[@ChrisC11291980]

You guys ever see the Grumpy Old Men movies? In this show, Ralph Macchio and William Zabka remind me of those two guys.

This season is great. I hope you guys will like Vikings, dont read anything on wikipedia on Ragnar or other historical figures featured in Vikings. Actual history was greatest spoiler for me when watching it.

TGIF #TeamMiguel

[@SCP.343]

To me, the way Mr Miyagi dissed Kreese feels like a smaller scale version of Superman Vs The Elite.

[@refreshrejoice5176]

Mr. Miyagi is the best character i feel ya

[@53knight]

Loved your Star Wars talk. It was very good. I expressed my view of the current SW movies. I was catching some hate from the new fans. So it was good to see a fellow fan that gets the spirit of Luke and who he is at his core.

[@abelcastro4813]

Umm why couldn’t Daniel be on the wall exactly? And who deserves to be on it then? Daniel is literally the only heir to Miyagi Do Karate so by default alone he’s going to have his picture next to Miyagi

[@valentinogal781]

Yay!!! you guys are back.

[@darthroden]

Am I the only one who thinks of Aang and Zuko doing the Dancing Dragon thing during the balance scene?

[@larrywoods8805]

Thanks for the update... My friends!!!!!

[@lieutenantdan7807]

The balance thing on the water looks like a record from above

[@Eivor85]

Kreese actually does look like a taller Hoggle from Labyrinth 😂 Best 80's fantasy movie for a kid along with Willow

[@HamillDavid]

The little dude from the Labyrinth 😂😂 ringer,I think the knuckle comment was just a jab like you couldn’t even hit a little old man standing right in front of you 😂

[@bradn6310]

The music during the training montage, I'll bet was inspired a little from the music from Kickboxer with Van Damme. 😁😍

[@mcgilj1]

It's the same car.. Johnny just couldn't resist painting it and "tagging" it with the Cobra Kai logo. Lol

[@katemaloney4296]

Johnny: When Charlie Manson isnt available to fill in as a father figure, just call on Sensei Kreese instead! Daniel: When God isn't available to fill in as a father figure, just call on Mr. Miyagi instead!
