COBRA KAI SEASON 3: GREATER AND MORE AMBITIOUS

Hey guys what is up welcome back to my blog I’m so thankful that you guys took the time out of your day to read my blog post. Hope you all are safe from the COVID-19. I was waiting for this for the longest time so I was the most excited when this came out. This post contains MAJOR SPOILERS for season 1 and 2 and MINOR SPOILERS for season 3 so please beware.

The story needless to say is amazing, amazing, amazing. It picks up right where we left off with Miguel in a coma now because of his fall, Robby on the run from the law, Tory expelled and Sam dealing with the trauma from her fight with Tory. Johnny on one hand has gone down a rabbit hole and has been ruining his life while Daniel is trying to track down and help Robby while also trying to make sure that Karate itself isn’t painted as an enemy in the eyes of the public. John Kreese is the one doing the best from them all as he now has a dojo and students that are looking to get stronger from their embarrassment at the school fight. There is a lot lot to do and believe me it becomes a wild ride with one thing after another.

So one thing that you guys already know from the trailer is that Miguel wakes up and he wakes up in the most badass way possible which is by Johnny Lawrence’s motivation. The scene is basically a fight at the All Valley Tournament in his head and Miguel keeps seeing himself lose against an opponent that is until Johnny gets into his room after doing some crazy stuff and motivates him to keep fighting because he is a champ. That scene will bring tears to your eyes mainly because it switched from some extremely funny stuff to something very hard hitting. I cried literally so don’t judge yourself if you do. One thing leads to another and then you see Johnny helping Miguel recover from his injuries and nurse him back to full strength so that he can do karate again and needless to say there are some real father and son or Sensei and Student bonding scenes in there.

Now Robby as you know is in Juvie, don’t attack me guys it was shown in the trailer and I warned you for spoilers. Now Robby has it tough as he learns that life on the inside is tough and he feels disconnected from everyone who is on the outside because he believes that everyone is helping Miguel and not him. He goes through some really bad stuff but he had badass moments of his own and the fights that he is in are really good so you should be ready. Also, he’ll be teaming up with someone very unlikely for season 4.

The rest of Cobra Kai and Miyagi Do isn’t doing too well either as Sam struggles with the fear from the fight and Tory from dealing with life. Hawk’s mental condition starts detoriating as he struggles to prove himself as a champ again and Demetri who’s popularity is on the rise after the fight also deals with struggles of his own. New characters join in and stuff gets even crazier than before because people start losing their way and find it too. Sam with the rest of Miyagi Do stops following the ‘Karate is for defense only’ rule as Cobra Kai starts getting more violent and violent. There’s school politics involved with the usual scuffles that take place.

The fights are beautifully choreographed and I don’t say anything about dialogue delivery very often but the way they are given in this show I knew I had to mention them. Every word expressed emotions that the characters were going through at the time. And speaking of emotional there are some very emotional Miyagi moments that people will recognize from the old movies. Those were seriously the best. The characters new motivations are well gives into even Kreese’s whose past we see and the struggles of the characters are so real even Daniel and Johnny have their own problems besides their dojos.

In the end the show gives out the message that Karate isn’t the enemy. Miguel proves that too because Karate saved him and destroyed him yet he didn’t hate Karate and instead wanted to get back into it. The lessons are pretty clear, “You won’t always know who the good guys are.”, “There isn’t always one side to the story.” And “Anyone can build strength but it’s the mentality to use it that’s hard to build.” The ending of the show is beautiful and badass with an even better fight than the school one with new techniques and alliances and might I say season 4 is about to be lit. Why ? That’s what you’ll find out when you watch the show.

So that is it for this post guys hope you got some value from this.  Thank you guys for reading to the end hit me up on Instagram, Twitter and LinkedIn with your thoughts and if you have any ideas which I should write about. Stay safe from the COVID-19. Thank you again and I’ll see you all next week.
