The wait is about to end as the much anticipated Season 5 of Cobra Kai is around the corner. The martial arts comedy-drama series is the sequel to Robert Mark Kamen’s infamous film thread, titled The Karate Kid. Cobra Kai talks about Johnny Lawrence, a part-time handyman who, in 1984’s All-Valley Karate Tournament, was defeated by Daniel LaRusso. The story incorporates a number of other characters along its way and gains momentum around the relationships and conflicts that root back to Johnny and Daniel’s past rivalry and their stubbornness to let it go. Cobra Kai is created by Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, and Hayden Schlossberg. Keep reading to know more about the fifth season of the show.
