Fans are already wanting a third series

The official synopsis for the show reads: "Cobra Kai takes place 30 years after the events of the 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament, where a now successful Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) struggles to maintain balance in his life without the guidance of Mr. Miyagi, and must face his previous adversary, down-and-out Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka), who seeks redemption by reopening the infamous Cobra Kai karate dojo."

The new episodes have provided some welcomed nostalgia for plenty of Netflix fans too. Thanks to the show being a spin-off of the Karate Kid, and Netflix dropping both films on the platform, plenty are loving the throwback content. One person wrote: "Nostalgia galore! I remember watching the Karate Kid as a reward in grade school (getting to skip my last two periods of the day) Then countless times after that. Cobra Kai is hands down the most enjoyable series I have watch in years".
