Could Dutch appear at the end of Cobra Kai? A Karate Kid character needs to return to the franchise in Cobra Kai season 6 for the Kreese arc to have a proper ending. Slowly but surely, the series utilized nearly every character still relevant to Daniel and Miyagi's story in the films.
But not everyone has been brought back yet. The window for the return of characters from the Karate Kid trilogy is closing. It has been confirmed that Season 6 is going to be the final chapter of Cobra Kai . As such, the series will need to wrap up the stories of several of the franchise's main characters, which includes Kreese (Martin Kove).Karate enthusiasts all over the world had to use their wax-on-wax-off abilities this year to wipe away their tears. The news that the upcoming sixth season of Cobra Kai will be the show’s last hit fans like a crane kick to the nose. After all, Cobra Kai is by far one of the best action series currently on air, and there has certainly been a lot of teasing about future seasons and new expansions to the so-called Miyagiverse. The story of the rivalry-turned-contentious-friendship between Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio), Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka), and their pupils seems full of endless possibilities. A lot has happened so far in the fight between the Miyagi-Do and the Cobra Kai dojos, and a lot could still happen if the show was renewed for just a few more seasons. Or, well, maybe not.
Look, let’s get one thing out of the way: Cobra Kai isn’t by any means a boring show. The Karate Kid sequel series is funny, emotional, and full of amazing fights and captivating characters. But, at the same time, Cobra Kai is strangely uneventful. Its flashy, eye-catching action scenes often feel like a distraction from the fact that nothing actually happens in the story. This doesn’t make Cobra Kai a bad show. Heck, we would watch Daniel and Johnny fight over a slice of pizza if that was all the series had to offer! But perhaps it’s time to face the fact that, plot-wise, we’re much closer to that slice of pizza than we would like to believe.
Oh, do you doubt me? Then join me in a little memory exercise. What was the basic plot of Seasons 1 and 2 of Cobra Kai? Johnny Lawrence brings back the Cobra Kai dojo, consequently resurrecting his beef with his teenage opponent Daniel LaRusso. Now with the roles reversed — Cobra Kai is the place for the bullied and the underdogs — Lawrence and LaRusso’s dojos face off against one another, and little by little Johnny realizes that the things he learned back when he was on Cobra Kai weren’t exactly right. In Season 2, he briefly teams up with Daniel to fend off Kreese (Martin Kove), who has slowly taken over his dojo.
Okay, now let’s move to Season 3 of Cobra Kai. What happens? Cobra Kai and Miyagi-Do continue their fight for which dojo shall rule the Valley. Under Kreese’s influence, Cobra Kai becomes the evil dojo once more, and Johnny and Daniel team up. In Season 4, they split once again, and Johnny founds the Eagle Fang dojo. Under Terry’s (Thomas Ian Griffith) influence, Cobra Kai becomes basically a fascist militia, and Kreese is kicked out of the dojo and framed for assault. In Season 5, Cobra Kai and Miyagi-Do are yet again fighting for control over the Valley, and, in the last episode, Johnny and Daniel join forces once more to combat a greater evil.
