Cobra Kai Season Five – What’s Next?

Thirty four years after events of the 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament, a down-and-out Johnny Lawrence seeks redemption by reopening the infamous Cobra Kai dojo, reigniting his rivalry with a now successful Daniel LaRusso.

How Many Episodes Of Cobra Kai Have Aired?

The bad: The 10 episodes of Cobra Kai Season Four have already come and gone. Now, the good: not only has the streamer has announced that Cobra Kai will return for a fifth season, but its creators are out and about teasing the future of the show. Here’s everything we know about Cobra Kai Season Five so far.

If you’re a Cobra Kai superfan, you know that the creators behind the series run a tight production schedule, never letting much more than a year pass between seasons since their debut. Season Five will be no different. This content is imported from Twitter.

As we wrote in our deep-dive on the Season Four finale, the plot going forward isn’t too hard to guess. We’re going to see another The Karate Kid II-esque road trip, only with Johnny and Miguel instead of Daniel and Mr. Miyagi. (Does Miguel’s dad know karate?

So in season five, you see that Miguel is out there, searching for his father. You’ve seen at the end of season four, that his father doesn’t know that he exists. So you’ll have to wait to find out what that journey is for Miguel going forward.

That’s how Cobra Kai goes. What about the future of Cobra Kai beyond its fifth season? The trio of producers behind the series have long teased spinoffs set in the Karate Kid world, which they’ve dubbed the Miyagi-verse.

How Many Children Does Daniel Have?

Ahh how the mighty have fallen. Is it because he has everything he ever wanted and seems out of touch as a result? Is it because he’s raised two spoiled and bratty children?

Let’s dig a little deeper on why Cobra Kai Daniel can’t help but put off fans who once loved him so. Exhibit A: He’s Got it All Let’s take inventory for a sec, friends. Daniel has a successful business, is a local celebrity, has a lovely wife, Amanda (Courtney Henggeler) (who is by far the best LaRusso of the bunch), a seemingly-great family (more on this later), and fancy house — basically, he didn’t need to get back into the karate world, he just did it to mess with Johnny.

He ain’t that bullied lil’ kid from New Jersey anymore. Even when Johnny is immature, he’s trying his best in his own weird way, and doesn’t try to hide the fact that he struggles with being vulnerable or acting like the bigger man. Daniel, however, presents himself as this enlightened and accepting figure, what with his breathing exercises and bonsai trees and koi pond, and yet he routinely fails to be the bigger man with Johnny.

Ahem. He gets back into karate for the express purpose of destroying Cobra Kai and ruining Johnny’s life even more than it already has been (which is saying something, because when we meet the guy, he’s an alcoholic deadbeat dad who doesn’t know how to use the Internet). It was totally messed up of Tory to you know, nearly kill Sam in that school fight (where were the teachers by the way?!

Kill it, if you have to.” I think that Daniel LaRusso should take his advice, because wow, you’d have thought HE was the one who lost the big 1984 All-Valley tournament for how stuck he is in the past. Also the way Daniel went back to Okinawa last season seemingly for the express purpose of flirting with an old flame was weird, right?

He’d probably pummel Daniel for the way he’s been acting throughout this series and for making a dojo that’s basically just a Miyagi Museum.

How Many Years After The Events Of The 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament Does Cobra Kai Take Place?

COBRA KAI takes place over 30 years after the events of the 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament with the continuation of the inescapable conflict between Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) and Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka). Season 4 finds the Miyagi-Do and Eagle Fang dojos joining forces to take down Cobra Kai at the All Valley Under 18 Karate Tournament… and whoever loses must hang up their gi. As Samantha and Miguel try to maintain the dojo alliance and Robby goes all in at Cobra Kai, the fate of the Valley has never been more precarious.

Can Daniel and Johnny bury their decades-long hatchet to defeat Kreese? Or will Cobra Kai become the face of karate in the Valley?
