Summary
Even Robby and Miguel aren’t ready for the threatCobra Kaihas set up for season 6. In the Cobra Kai season 6 trailer, having little knowledge of what they’ll be up against at the Sekai Taikai appears to be a source of tension for Johnny and Daniel. But while they may not be fully aware of what’s coming, the show itself hasn’t shied away from teasing the season’s villains. As the trailer has all but confirmed, their principal rivals in the Sekai Taikai will be a dojo run by John Kreese and Kim Dae-Eun.
Despite Kreese becoming a fugitive and Kim seeing her plan fall apart inCobra Kaiseason 5’s ending, both characters will be back in play when the show returns. From the looks of things, they too will have students competing in the Sekai Taikai inCobra Kaiseason 6. And from the looks of things, not a single one of them will be returning character. But while this leaves a great deal to the imagination, it’s already become clear that at least one of Kreese’s students is going to be a serious problem forJohnny and Daniel’s dojo.
Cobra Kai Hints One Of Kreese’s Students Is Stronger Than Everyone In Johnny & Daniel’s Dojo
Kreese’s New Student May Be His Best Yet
That threat will come in the form of the unnamed character seen smirking in theCobra Kaiseason 6 trailer. Toward the end of the trailer, the character executes a double kick in the air, allowing him to hit two opponents at once. This is an impressive feat, one that’s normally seen in kung fu movies, but notCobra Kai.Moves like this are understood to be above the skill level of the show’s teenage characters. It’s fair to say, based on what’s been shown so far, that Miguel, Robby, Sam, or Tory are capable of pulling off this technique, or at least not as skillfully as the villain in question.
The decision to show a character demonstrating moves outside the wheelhouse ofCobra Kai’smain characters makes the case that this new villain is currently better than they are. Granted, a couple of karate moves aren’t enough to offer a full assessment of his capabilities, but if it’s any indication of his talents, none of the characters are ready for such an adversary. Of course, that’s not to say that they won’t beat him inCobra Kaiseason 6’s ending. Rather, it’s just unlikely that they would win if they fought right away.Getting to a point where any of them is on his level could take a full season of intense trainingfrom all their senseis.
Cobra Kai’s New Character Could Be The Final Villain For Johnny & Daniel’s Students
Kreese’s New Student Could Be In The Final Round Of The Sekai Taikai
The way in which the trailer props up this new character positions him to hold an important role inCobra Kaiseason 6. If he really is the strongest fighter Kreese and Kim have at their disposal during the Sekai Taikai, then it stands to reason that he’ll be the last opponent standing at the end of the tournament - assuming, of course, that at least one of Johnny and Daniel’s students make it that far. If that’s the case, a showdown between Robby, Sam, Miguel, or Tory against this mystery villain could be the final round of the tournament and the battle that officially namesCobra Kai’sstrongest teenage fighter.
