Netflix is sharing a closer look at the last episodes of Cobra Kai. The show, which premiered in 2018, is a continuation of the Karate Kid franchise and follows the ongoing rivalry between legacy characters Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) and Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka), boasting a vast ensemble cast that includes many newcomers and legacy characters alike. The upcoming Cobra Kai season 6 part 3 will close out both the season and the series as a whole with five final episodes.
Netflix has now offered several new glimpses of Cobra Kai season 6 part 3. This includes three new first-look images from the final episodes. Two of the images show Daniel and Johnny in different one-on-one training sessions with students, presumably preparing for the continuation of the Sekai Taikai World Tournament. Another shows Tory Nichols (Peyton List) exercising on her own, out of uniform. See the images below:
The streaming service has also released a new sneak peek at season 6 part 3. It includes footage of the training scenes depicted in the new images, with voiceover narration teasing that the characters are preparing for the tournament, which has “an audience far greater than before.” The voiceover also teases that “the stakes have never been higher,” before the teaser reveals that the speaker is head of the Sekai Taikai, who says that he has arrived in the Valley in an attempt to prevent further drama with the tournament. Check out the video below:
What This Means For Cobra Kai
Season 6 Part 3 Raises The Stakes
This new teaser offers some vital context for the final episodes of the show. While there was some doubt as to whether the tournament would continue at all in the wake of the death of Kwon Jae-Sung (Brandon H. Lee), who was killed during a skirmish that broke out in the final episode of Cobra Kai season 6 part 2. The sneak peek has conclusively revealed that the tournament will continue, though there is an implication that some time has passed between the ending of part 2 and the premiere of part 3.
Another fight could stain the tournament’s reputation forever…
With the tournament back on track, it is true that the stakes have never been higher. The tournament in and of itself will prove to be a huge source of anxiety for the remaining Cobra Kai characters, as its outcome could determine their futures. However, the continued tensions between the participants have already turned deadly, meaning that another fight could stain the tournament’s reputation forever and that, at worst, more lives could very well be at risk.
Our Take On The Cobra Kai Sneak Peek
The Series Finale Seems Promising
What seems certain is that, in spite of the wishes expressed in the Cobra Kai sneak peek, the final rounds of the tournament will be chock-full of drama. The show’s tournament storylines tend to amplify the preexisting interpersonal tensions among the cast considerably, but with the series drawing to a close, they will likely ratchet up higher than ever before.
Cobra Kai season 6, part 3 premieres on Netflix on February 13.
