![]() Anthony has tried to apologize, but Kenny continues to hold a grudge. The biggest remaining unresolved feud is between Kenny and Anthony LaRusso (Griffin Santopietro). As ridiculous as it seemed, it worked, and they found some common ground. And Miguel Diaz (Xolo Maridueña) and Robby Keene (Tanner Buchanan) finally had it out in a brutal big fight staged by Johnny in episode 5. Sam and Tory finally made their peace after Sam visited Tory’s home and got a better grasp of her situation. Time to Unbury the HatchetĪt the conclusion of season 5, we saw two of the biggest teen rivalries unite against Silver. Despite the growing list of scandals within the Cobra Kai dojos, their membership won’t wane. Following his unforgivable betrayal of Miyagi-do and Eagle Fang, there’s nowhere else for him to go. And then there’s Kyler Park (Joe Seo) who, like Tory and Kenny, has been with Cobra Kai dojo all the way through. Beyond Tory, will the season 5 sophomores, Kenny Payne (Dallas Dupree Young) and Devon Lee (Oona O’Brien), stay with Cobra Kai? They both made progress there. She’s a wild card.īut back to the Cobra Kai loyalists, Tory will likely remain loyal to Kreese as she had issues with Kim. ![]() We’re just beginning to learn her story, so there’s still lots of room for character growth. We’ve only seen a little of her childhood and know from her treatment of Tory that she’s a hard ass when it comes to teaching. With all the rest of the chaos of season 5, Sensei Kim’s character was only minimally developed. It sets up more conflict between Daniel and Cobra Kai. This is predicated on her not getting busted too, along with her squad of Korean senseis, as they fought to defend Silver’s mansion as well. Her main desire is to carry on her father’s Tang Soo Do teachings, and the best place to do that in the USA are through the Cobra Kai dojos. With the two founding senseis Kreese and Silver gone, who will remain loyal to the Cobra Kai dojo? It’ll fall upon the new sensei Kim Da-Eun (Alicia Hannah-Kim). Perhaps we haven’t heard the last from Silver yet. If cornered, he’ll attack with all he’s got.įor that matter, if Kreese can escape, why not Silver too? Unlike Kreese, Silver has the means to employ a good lawyer, so it’s not a given that he’s going to jail at all, despite all the chaos he has caused in season 5. He’s not beholden to playing “nice” anymore. Kreese on the run will be more dangerous than ever. Even though Stingray (Paul Walter Hauser) is coming clean about falsely accusing Kreese for the beating he got from Silver, a jail break is an entirely new offense. Nevertheless, Kreese will have to remain in hiding. Despite his evil ways, Kreese has become like a surrogate father to Nichols, so much so that he blocked Silver’s command to be merciless when fighting Sam LaRusso (Mary Mouser) at the end of season 4. Tory visited seeking more guidance from her sensei. Tory was the only one who visited Kreese in jail, aside from Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) and Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka) but they had ulterior motives. It’s likely that he’ll tap his most loyal student, Tory Nichols (Peyton List), for help while he’s on the run. As an escaped prisoner, he’ll be desperate. With Kreese back in the picture, there’s no telling what he might do. ![]() That will surely be a major plot point for next season. ![]() All the beloved main characters put aside their rivalries to vanquish Silver, so once he’s busted, they can all live happily ever after, right? But wait! Kreese escaped jail. This season’s finale was oddly parallel to last season’s finale, the villainous sensei gets taken away by the police, only this time it’s Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith) instead of John Kreese (Martin Kove). Season 5 kept up its breakneck pace (and we do mean breakneck – remember how season 2 ended). ![]()
