My distaste with season 5, and this show as a whole, boils down to the fact that the writers have gone all in on the idea that the only true Character that is allowed to exist in this story is Johnny, and nearly all the others are just malleable dolls for the writers to move around and play with as they see fit to advance the story in a direction that will make Johnny the Ultimate Winner Of Everything.
And I hear the criticisms already of “but Johnny’s the protagonist! Obviously every other character is ultimately going to serve his story.” But Walter White is the protagonist of Breaking Bad and Jimmy McGill is the protagonist of Better Call Saul and Kendall Roy is arguably the protagonist of Succession. And obviously it’s unfair to compare shows of that caliber to Cobra Kai, but do you see my point? In all of the above, the characters that orbit the protagonist are fully fleshed out people, equally complex and just as motivated by their own desires and history and traumas as the protagonist is. And yet still, ultimately, their characters do end up serving the protagonist’s arc, and the story as a whole. Because that’s what good writing is.
But increasingly, all the other characters in Cobra Kai have stopped behaving like actual people—especially the ones that pose any challenge for Johnny. Their feelings get stamped down in favor of removing Johnny’s obstacles towards happiness, which only winds up reducing Johnny’s own character in complexity and likability.
I watch Cobra Kai now and I don’t find any of these characters believable, maybe Johnny most of all, because the writers steadfastly refuse to let him face any real serious consequence for his actions. Instead, they have everyone falling over themselves to forgive him, repeatedly giving him a do over—a chance to right his wrongs without ever ever fully acknowledging the hurt and pain he’s caused. This season, quite literally in the form of a new baby. And if that’s the story they want to tell, well fine. It’s their story to tell. But they can’t keep pretending like this is a redemption story, that there’s anything deeper beneath the surface of this show than just being about a guy who does karate and kicks ass and gets the girl and defeats the Big Bad of the week. This is not a story about trauma, Johnny’s or anyone else’s. It’s really not about anything at all anymore.
#cobra kai season 5#s5 spoilers#throwing in a baby is maybe the cheapest trick in the book when it comes to writing#its so so so so so so so so so stupid#and the fact that robby AND miguel aren’t allowed to have conflicted enotions about this—theyre happy for him and were supposed to see that#signals character growth#thats just so beyond#your deadbeat dad suddenly having a new kid is hard. youre allowed to FEEL thing about that#and being inextricably tied to the kid who almost killed you? thats also hard#they threw in a baby as a cheap and easy way to get all these characters on the same page#and its lazy and boring not to mention spits in the face of everything this show originally claimed to be about#not to mention the idea that carmen would WANT to have a baby with a chronic alcoholic who shes been dating for less than a year#who she’s barely even KNOWN for a year#but what are women if not baby factories right? :)#but whatever!#and the thing is. daniel this season was the kost believable character of them all. because his actions DO have consequences. again and#again and again he is challenged with the consequences of his actions#and forced to examine whether hes making the right choices#but johnny NEVER is#and in the process theyre trying to retcon and reframe the mistakes he HAS made over the past 4 seasons#as trying to be something less severe than they were#you don’t have to water down the deoth of johnnys flaws to make him a likable character!#in fact doing that just literally makes him unlikeable#and it doesnt evade me that daniels writing being at its best happens to coincide with thebseason where he poses zero challenge to johnny#but whatever!!! its fine its fine its fine#ck negativity

Prompt: 30 More Years
Pairing: Hawkmetri
***
“Okay, but no West Valley prom will ever be as insane as 2019.”
Mr. Williams looks up from his lunch to see the chemistry teacher smirking at him.
“Elaborate.”
“Gay kid with a purple mohawk stole the prom king crown from some douchebag. Then he and his date—super lanky dude in a glitter suit—roundhouse-kicked the fucker offstage. Huge karate fight broke out.”
“No way.”
“Yes way.” The chemistry teacher grins maniacally. “And you know what else?”
“What?”
“That gay mohawk kid...was me.”
“Honey!” A tall, flustered CompSci teacher walks into the lounge. “Are you tormenting the new guy?”
***
Inspired by @soe-leo’s addition to the Hawkmetri prom ask I did like...a million years ago XD I just think Hawk and Demetri deserve to nab the prom king and queen crowns for themselves and have it fade into West Valley High urban legend for decades to come <3

Imma say something,
And here me out.
Please
Burt and Nathaniel need more screen time.
Also, they need to be "redeemed" for the way they treated Kenny in S4. Burt has been there since S1 and Nate, S2. Why doesn't it makes sense that they get more lines.
Edwin has been there since S1 also and he doesn't even have a line. Not once ever. You problem have no clue who I speak of.
Tumblr media
THIS DUDE RIGHT HERE.
Another person who need at least one conversation, Abe
Tumblr media
One of the people who left for Miyagi do, the first time.
All I beg is that the writers pay attention to the characters who have been there since forever. Ofc I know that not all characters can be in the storyline but they can at least have a damn line or two.

okay, someone needs to tell me very honestly if season 5 of cobra kai is worth watching? I've seen a lot of posts and gifsets and don't really care if you spoil anything to me, just tell me, is it worth it?
for context: I've loved season 1 and 2, thought season 3 had a weak start but absolutely LOVED the payoff at the end, found season 4 absolutely horrible with too many characters, too many contrivances and too little character moments. also, I got the feeling that Johnny was reduced to "big dumb guy, look how stupid he is ha ha." which really made me uncomfortable when watching.
I am a huge fan of the OG cast but like all the kids as well, though my main focus is on the older generation.
should I watch season 5? someone tell me, please!

just binged season 5 of cobra kai and i really liked it!! it finally gives Daniel his flowers and i love seeing everyone working together <3 Chozen was everything! he was so fun while still adding an emotional and thematic element to the story and i’m glad Daniel had him there. all the kids arcs seemed a little bit rushed but were good overall and i really feel for Sam and Tory. Carmen and Amanda are so lovely and hot - I’m glad Amanda had stuff to do this season but give Carmen more plot!! The baby storyline wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be but she deserves so much better. Jessica is back!! and she’s Amanda’s cousin!! a really fanservice-y but sweet addition. Terry’s such a great villain and so fun to root against. skipped through a few cringe parts but I’m really happy with it overall. it had some fun scenes (the adults partying scene and Mike’s bits for example), some emotional moments, and highlighted Daniel really well.

Cobra Kai Season 5 drops Friday
I will be tagging all spoilers/thoughts related to the new season as "Cobra Kai season 5 spoilers" and/or "Cobra Kai spoilers", so that I don't spoil it for anyone. Block those tags, please, unless you wish to be spoiled.
Also. Since I am being courteous to others by tagging my spoilers, I expect the same. If anyone spoils this season for me, I WILL be unfollowing or blocking, depending on how upset I am. I was spoiled a few times last season, and I let a lot of shit slide because I was new to the fandom and didn't want to make any enemies, but I won't put up with it this time around. It takes only a few seconds to tag your spoilers. Please keep in mind that not everyone is able to binge watch the show, and some of us don't want to. I plan to watch slowly this time, maybe stretch it out over the weekend. Whenever I binge watch, I feel like I'm doing a chore, and that takes all the fun out of it.
Again, if you don't tag your spoilers, that's fine, I certainly can't make you, BUT I will either block you or unfollow you. I'm not trying to be a bitch, but that's very disrespectful.
