Cobra Kai Season 6 trailer hints at return of major Karate Kid villain

It opens with Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) and Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka) discussing the stiff competition they will face as they prepare their students for the Sekai Taikai tournament.

The pair disagree over their training style, with Daniel telling Johnny: “We have no idea what we’re dealing with.” The trailer then cuts to a militant team of students led by Kreese, and it looks like he means business.

But this isn’t the only Karate Kid callback. The final sequence of the Cobra Kai Season 6 Part 1 trailer shows Chozen Toguchi and Daniel discovering what could potentially be the key to their victory: Mr. Miyagi’s buried secrets.

“When we open, anything is possible,” Chozen said. He and Daniel open the box, although no one knows what’s inside.

And that’s just one of the many reasons fans are excited, with one writing: “Miyagi secrets? Miguel vs. Robby? Sam vs. Tory? Crazy trailer.”

Another said: “Honestly this is an incredible achievement, to be able to turn a classic trilogy into a successful show, combining the storylines of the original films with a contemporary touch to the art of Karate! Cobra Kai is back , baby!”

“Cobra Kai is just the best show ever, I need a tissue for this final season, this trailer is incredible,” added a third.

Cobra Kai Season 6 Part 1 releases on Netflix on July 18. Until then, check out all the new TV shows coming to streaming this month.
