Nostalgia is immune to curves but not time: it can survive the rush of the roller coaster of life and, nevertheless, die over one of its curves. When no one expected, the spirit of Mr. Miyagi of … Pat Morita, the teacher who taught Ralph Macchio to kick the crane at the end of the eighties movie ‘Karate Kid: The moment of truth’, rose thirty -four years later in the series ‘Cobra Kai’, that Netflix incorporated into its catalog after the success of its debut on YouTube and that it opens next week the last batch of episodes. Not even the series of an end after six seasons is fought with Kimonos.
Shark: He agonizes nostalgia but still does not die the Miyagiverse, eye, because there will be a movie with Macchio and Jackie Chan in cinemas in May. It is already known, the money is able to perpetuate the rales of a farewell to unsuspected limits, stretching the age of its protagonists, Peter breads with the syndrome of ‘When leaving class’, repeating plots to the absurd and, along the way, on the road, losing the acid humor that served as comic relief to a series that is quite white. The rusting trick to the original cast cannot do everything and ‘Cobra Kai’ has experienced its ups and downs throughout the six seasons.
The value of discipline and perseverance, the importance of not giving up, from the effort and small goals … the same philosophy of the 1984 film is in ‘Cobra Kai’, which also knew how to uncheck the pure pastiche to become The redemption trip of Johnny Lawrence, villain of the original film that, already in the first season of the series, becomes the exemplary antihero, representing the twist to a franchise that moved in absolute terms, the good against Evil, but admitted more nuances.
GIVE Wax, polish wax
The dynamics, otherwise, perpetuates the same simplicity as that of the Karate saga. Give wax and polish wax. The engine of the series is still the rivalries, first between Daniel Larusso (Macchio) and Lawrence (William Zabka) and, once the enmity between the two protagonists, renews them and expands them. Thus, ‘Cobra Kai’ entered fully into an arms race for looking for new rivalries, increasing The ‘Dojos’ against Silver and his lethal fist on the Sekai Taikai of this final install The great title is disputed. It is already known, union is strength.
«We planned this end, but we could not have planned how many instruments we will touch in the symphony of the end. We had our heads with Johnny and Daniel, and a bit of Miguel and a little Robbie and Sam at the beginning of the series. Now, there are 40 characters of which we are already in love with those who want to give them the right end, ”said Jon Hurwitz, one of its creators, on the ‘Screen Rant’ portal. But it is time to close cycle.
