paulvdb February 13 Share February 13 Quote While their students plam for life after karate, Daniel and Johnny clash over reviving the Sekai Taikai. Kreese reconsiders his guiding principles.

jah1986 February 13 Share February 13 Nice first episode of the final six (?). I did not think Kim was going to kill her grandfather. Does Kreese even know where to start to be a decent human being? I didn't mind not too much emphasis on the kids. I wonder if Kim will find Yoon before the tournament starts again. And just where will Daniel and Johnny choose to have the tournament completed at? I have no memory of Anoush's girlfriend/wife, but I liked her. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151873-s06e11-into-the-fire/#findComment-8580154

I think it was another Star Wars homage, Luke finding a Vadar in the cave, but was shocked that she did have to end grandfather to be worthy of running the dojang. The detectives on all those K-Dramas would figure out the murder. I guess legally Kreese still held the rights to "Cobra Kai". He made it clear he would take them back into the Sekai Tekai before grandfather Kim said so also. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151873-s06e11-into-the-fire/#findComment-8580222
Kel Varnsen February 15 Share February 15 This show has gotten so crazy that it's probably good they aren't trying to draw it out much more. Like how did Kreese get a knife that killed a kid back? And why is Robby surprised that he doesn't have a ton of options after high school. He is a teen with a record and we never got much indication that he was into school. Plus it's not like trade school is a bad thing. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151873-s06e11-into-the-fire/#findComment-8581315

With the guidance counselor saying you are not coming out of the Valley as a professional fighter I thought that athlete was the pre scene plan Robby put forward. If anything, his surprise being that he had two born again parents with their new partners with him. And then the model for the vocational training brochures could have been a post All- Valley loss Johnny Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151873-s06e11-into-the-fire/#findComment-8581329
bettername2come February 15 Share February 15 I love Louie being all offended when Anoush says Daniel was the one who flipped Kwon over. "What is he a pancake?" It's not a good sign when you lose the moral high ground to Louie. I like how he was tracking that Daniel wasn't all right. Daniel and Johnny arguing about the Sekai Tekai was a good example of how far they've come since season 1. Just Johnny calling him Daniel instead of LaRusso and saying please was a lot. And his complaining to Carmen after was so much more calm and mature. And then later when he bring Silver, "Do you trust me?" "That's a loaded question, but yeah." It was nice seeing them side by side in that confrontation. Aw, Johnny trusts him too. Kinda nice to see the real daughter and the fictional daughter interacting. It seemed weird Anthony wasn't at the dealership party. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151873-s06e11-into-the-fire/#findComment-8581331
tennisgurl February 19 Share February 19 Of course we have to keep the tournament going, what would we do if we couldn't do extremely dramatic karate tournaments! I didn't see Kim killing her grandfather, but I suppose that was the only way she was ever going to be allowed to be in charge. I am so glad that Daniel and Johnny didn't let Silver get between them again, even when Johnny was clearly unhappy with Daniels attitude towards the tournament he tried to actually talk to him like an adult and they managed to actually avoid getting super offended by each other or escalating.

Virtual February 19 Share February 19 I think the show established ever since Season 2 that Kreese didn't know how to be a good person if he tried. His conversation with Johnny at the shelter in S2, his conversations with the therapist in jail in S5 and his talk with Kim in this episode all indicate that. I think we all knew that Daniel wasn't going to stay out of the karate game for good. Especially when Johnny and his kids wanted him to continue.

DoctorAtomic February 23 Share February 23 All right. I have to travel next week so I'm knocking out the series today. Surprised that Kreese actually said it was his fault. He actually seems remorseful. And I'm surprised that the tournament was cancelled. The way this show goes, I didn't think a death would have met much more than a blink of an eye. Of course, I don't think for a second that they're not going to put it back on. Which didn't last more than 5 minutes. I'm impressed with Johnny's introspection. And having I guess we're getting a lot of set up because this episode is dragging for me. I can totally understand Sam wanting to get away for a while. UCLA is a good college though. Not as good as Berkeley. Maybe go there. I almost forgot that Amanda is the MVP of the series. We got a Kill Bill ending though! That was exciting!

He had a hard life, not totally his fault, some was. He's turned himself around, and I think it's fair to say karate helped. He's more of an adult than you're typical college freshman. You've got trade school. Community colleges offer a range of professional certifications. There's plenty of skilled jobs that don't require a 4 year degree that he's qualified for. I feel like they knocked his characterization down. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151873-s06e11-into-the-fire/#findComment-8588770

Which didn't last more than 5 minutes. Some major speculation here. Perhaps back in 1948 when Mr. Miyagi killed a fighter the Sekai Taikai was a minor, in America underground fighting thing. Soldiers like Kreese and Silver's Captain and Chuck Norris were at least 5 years away from Master Kim and Tang Soo Do/Cobra Kai with some soldiers on occupation duty on Okinawa and in Japan. And he was travelling on a fake passport running from an assault and robbery charges. Eventually the statue of limitations would go into effect. By the time Silver got a dojo qualified the Sekai Taikai, with karate the number one sport in the Valley, was more civilized and being streamed with sponsorships. In the no bad publicity department Kwon's death turned a minor amateur kid's karate championship broadcast into something worthy of ESPN's attention.

Dobian February 25 Share February 25 This show is back to its shameless stealing of old movie tropes, as Kim kills the Pai Mei guy from Kill Bill with the ripoff of the five point palm exploding heart technique, also from Kill Bill.
