Narrative
Decades after their 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament match, middle-aged Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence find themselves back as martial arts rivals. The crew behind Cobra Kai searched through the studio’s vaults and found a ton of never-before-seen clips, which they were able to introduce into the series via flashbacks.

Many believe that Miyagi’s name on his headstone is a recurring error, as in Karate Kid 4 (1994) his name is listed as Keisuke, but it was actually shown on a sign held by Chozen in Karate Kid 2 (1986) to be Nariyoshi. This means that The Next Karate Kid changed his name, while Cobra Kai kept his original name.
However, another interesting fact is that the name given in The Karate Kid Part II is not his original first name
Miyagi. In The Karate Kid (1984), Miyagi’s first name is briefly seen as Hideo on Miyagi’s dog tag attached to the keys to the 1948 Ford that Daniel was given for his birthday.

The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon: Anthony Mackie/Ralph Macchio/Kiry Shabazz (2018) I remember watching the Karate Kid movies as a kid, and I can’t express how impressed and amazed I was by the level of quality of this series. It truly embodies the legacy of the rivalry, but also brings the spirit of the movies back to life on an unprecedented level.
Amazing work on YouTube!
I can’t wait to see what they do in Season 2.
