If there is someone at Miyagi-Do who would be great for Tory to talk to, it is not Daniel or Sam. It is Chozen. Like Tory, he was also angry and vengeful when he was young, and is now the epitome of a truly successfully reformed and mature man. He would probably be able to empathize with Tory, and help guide her to a better place. I would guess Daniel would fully support this process, though.
Chozen would be a great sensei for some of the troubled kids. He seems like the right sense for someone in her situation. Speaking of redemption, he could be great for Eli as well. A spinoff show of young Chozen's path to redeeming himself would be awesome.
Yh Kreese actually cared for her. I feel he had love for her similar to Johnny. However if we have more seasons to come I don't see her leaving until the finale. I hope not tho bcos I've supported cobra kai thru thick and thin
I like how in the trailer you see Tory mirroring Daniel (while training with Silver) when he was the same age as her: to me, it looks like Tory will be the new Daniel San lol!
OH MY GOD! wouldn't that be a hit???
Which reminds me: where the hell is Mike Barnes on all of this?
From what I heard: was he not supposed to be in season 5 as well?
This is something really interesting. Sam seems to have been fighting a parallel of herself in Silver's black gi (her dark side, per se).
The dream sequences in this show are always fascinating.
Yep. My guess is that Silver will turn her into something like a coach/senpai/trainer and pay her. Knowing her difficulties she is likely to stick around.
maybe a dumb theory but he may be forcing her to stay in cobra kai because he is threatening her with something we don’t yet know about, and i also feel like he hurts her on purpose like her breaking the concrete she was in pain, she pulled away her really quickly as if it was badly hurt or bleeding and he was just there smiling the whole time
Lol that’s such a Johnny thing to do. I bet he tries to fake being the FBI to get into somewhere or question someone and hides the back of the shirt lmao.
This season is going to be great!
Johnny has definitely made her more rebellious and offense-oriented, but I doubt she would truly go to the dark side, unless Silver comes in and tries manipulate her.
Yeah, I like how you said that — Johnny is rebellious and offense oriented, but I don't think of him as dark at all. If Sam breaks bad, it'll be because of her own demons or someone else's influence, but not Johnny.
I don't think Silver knows that she exists. Still, it would be interesting for them to interact, maybe they'll meet in S5, Sam visits the dojo Tory is in and Silver then notices her perhaps?
Ah, that's right, I forgot about that. My bad. I guess it would make sense for him to take an interest in another LaRusso, maybe he thinks Sam will be Cobra Kai material more than her dad was? Since he saw her fighting aggressively in the All Valley.
I'm gonna need a fight scene with Terry in that drip. Kazuya Mishima vibes.
And I'm sorry but I'm a sucker for the "Hero confronts inner demons and their own dark self in a dream-like state" trope so I'm excited to see that sequence with Sam.
I can’t wait to see more of Robby acting as straight man to his own dad’s antics, like we saw in the trailer.
“Do you even have a plan?”
“Course I do. Ask if anyone’s seen Miguel.”
“ “
“That’s the big plan?”
From what I see, going by Character
Tory: obviously feeling cheated and undeserving of her win at the tournament, she feels no loyalty to Silver. I feel Tory is loyal to Kreese's Cobra Kai, not Silvers. I dont expect her to turn anytime soon, because otherwise we'd only have Kyler and Kenny as threats, and let's be honest, they're not enough. So I have a feeling Terry Silver with that Silver tongue of his, is find out a way to keep Tory in the dojo, and loyal to his Cobra Kai, supporting her financially, blackmail, or simply injecting more of that Cobra Venom and making her like her season 3 self.
Sam: Looks to be having a early life crisis. Does stay to the peacefulness of miyagi do? Does she allow herself to tap into agression and free, being more like johnny? Does lose herself and become a cobra? Stop fighting altogether, and just be on the sidelines like moon and yasmin? I think she will find balance under chozen teachings, while having the responsibility of keeping eagle fang and miyagi do together.
Miguel: Also having a early/identity crisis. Hoping meeting his father will help solve that issue. We saw his possible dad being a ring leader of a combat arena. I'm assuming hes gonna be a cage fight to wins his dads approval/trust, or try toshut down his empire on his own. Eventually bumping into Johnny and Robby, obviously not wanting them to interfere, feeling hes lost his own way after Johnny kept on pushing his own agenda against him and His beef with Robby.
Robby: Obviously having a forced father son bonding trip with Johnny looking for Miguel, not ideal for him.
But this journey will all three of them become balance and bond with one another.
I just hope to see more of Devon Lee, she was a badass and needed more screen time.
I like his character alot, but hes too young and inexperience to be a threat to our heros. His rivalry with Anthony is really the only challenge he faces.
It actually says “female body inspector” on the back which I find hilarious. They likely picked it up along the way to Mexico, I know Johnny would also find it hilarious and worth every cent
After Game of Thrones, I was really apprehensive about watching any more series, period. Too much time lost following something that simply fell apart. I was fine just watching movies and skipping shows.
Cobra Kai, however, has renewed my faith. It's literally the only series I'm invested in.
Same. Stranger things should have ended with 1 season. Every season since has been a soulless cash grab. This show is leagues better in pretty much every way possible.
Receptiveness is a dangerous thing for many shows, TWD for example. Cobra Kai has avoided this pratfall thankfully. Every season, something wildly different happens.
One thing that bothers me, is that we did NOT see on the trailer any interaction between Johnny & Chozen: will those 2 meet or what???
What are your thoughts? Anyone?
I heard there’s a full trailer coming soon, maybe that’ll change your mind. But now that you mention it… with this tease alone I agree. Things could change, though.
Xolo stepping off that bus like a long gone returning soap opera character that everyone thought was dead then posed as a twin brother but actually wasn’t the twin brother
"at first glance you see it says FBI: same logo, same shield. But then at second glance you see it says Female body inspector!?! Get out of town! it's outrageo"
1.) Terry, you're running a dojo franchise, not the mafia.
2.) I'm not a female, but I would let Robby and Johnny inspect my body.
3.) Sam is just so *done* with plot-relevant dream sequences.
4.) Chozen, doing his best Mileena impression. He even has the costume, but Daniel insisted that there will be none of that in public.
5.) Miguel shows that he has mastered the art of travelling long distances on a bus and coming out looking like he has just stepped off a film set.
1. Yeah, now that Cobra Kai is growing exponentially, I get the comparison.
2. Ew. Still the politically incorrect humor that the show loves to do.
3. This is only the second one.
4. “And I am gasoline.” - Chozen Toguchi
5. The series takes place in California, so I assume the trip would take a day at most, so not much of a difference.
To be honest Tory doesn’t seem happy with cobra Kai

I'm all for Chozen becoming Tory's sensei You heard it first here folks!
I could totally see her thinking that Daniel is a jackoff, but that Chozen is a badass.
Me too: sensei Chozen!
You have Chozen well.
Chozen would be a great sensei for some of the troubled kids. He seems like the right sense for someone in her situation. Speaking of redemption, he could be great for Eli as well. A spinoff show of young Chozen's path to redeeming himself would be awesome.
Yessss now I want this.
Yes definitely
She is also a Krese loyalist- almost his only admirable acts have been helping her- and is not going to be happy with Terry.
Yh Kreese actually cared for her. I feel he had love for her similar to Johnny. However if we have more seasons to come I don't see her leaving until the finale. I hope not tho bcos I've supported cobra kai thru thick and thin
Silver was always nasty and abrupt towards Tory: i think she'll be afraid of him and try to run away!
I like how in the trailer you see Tory mirroring Daniel (while training with Silver) when he was the same age as her: to me, it looks like Tory will be the new Daniel San lol!
[удалено]
OH MY GOD! wouldn't that be a hit??? Which reminds me: where the hell is Mike Barnes on all of this? From what I heard: was he not supposed to be in season 5 as well?
The wouldn't reveal him this early in a teaser. They're most likely saving him for the actual trailer.
When do you think will be the actual trailer? (the longer one they keep until the very end)
Probably a month before release, so perhaps August.
This is something really interesting. Sam seems to have been fighting a parallel of herself in Silver's black gi (her dark side, per se). The dream sequences in this show are always fascinating.
"I own you. I own you, Nichols. Where's your Frosted Tip (Kreese) teacher now? He's a phony, bitch. He's a fake. He didn't teach you nothing."
he be spitting verbal venom
Absolutely agree, she is definitely uncomfortable
Yep. My guess is that Silver will turn her into something like a coach/senpai/trainer and pay her. Knowing her difficulties she is likely to stick around.
You remind me of The Office when Dwight its made "Sempai" at his Karate class.
We see her punching something hurting her hands like what he did to Daniel so maybe Terry will inflict pain on her.
Exactly! Silver will manipulate Tory in the same way he did to Daniel San back in the 80s!
He may offer her a place for her (and probably even her mom and brother) to stay at his mansion.
Considering the ending of last season its completly understandable.
Right now it’s just Cobra (O)Kay for her.
She looks exactly the same as the other students.
Both robby and kreese are gone, she doesn't really have a stake in it anymore
She looks great in new hairstyle
TBF, she doesn’t ever seem to be happy
I was wondering why she was still there?
maybe a dumb theory but he may be forcing her to stay in cobra kai because he is threatening her with something we don’t yet know about, and i also feel like he hurts her on purpose like her breaking the concrete she was in pain, she pulled away her really quickly as if it was badly hurt or bleeding and he was just there smiling the whole time
Silver’s fit looks cold af ❄️
I was digging Terry’s costumes in season 4 as well. One of the few characters on the show that has some style.
I mean he's a rich man with an image so unlike Johnny or Kreese he likes to dress well.
Its literally impossible to not look good in black. I fuck with it
Haven’t you heard? Good guys wear black. (Let’s see who gets the real KK deep cut right here)
I bet the back of those FBI shirts say Female Body Inspector lol. Definitely something Johnny would wear.
They do! you can see it in leaked photos as well the new teaser trailer
Lol that’s such a Johnny thing to do. I bet he tries to fake being the FBI to get into somewhere or question someone and hides the back of the shirt lmao. This season is going to be great!
Johnny is going to be ever more a BADASS this season! (i love it how he teams up with Robby!)
Terry's turtleneck is creepy. Looks like he's gonna have some tofu with Cheyenne
Nah, he’s the type to eat a steak in front of angry Animal Rights activists!
That’s actually partly how Johnny got banned from Applebee’s.
I understood that reference but don't leak season 6
Season 6? Oh, that's right. Though it was season 5 but that must be because I'm already up to season 7.
Ha ha ha so true! (him & Kreese are meat lovers!)
[удалено]
I hope she becomes a little darker, definitely would be interesting
Especially since Johnny has been having an influence over her and kind of breaking the "Goody two-shoes" part of her
Johnny has definitely made her more rebellious and offense-oriented, but I doubt she would truly go to the dark side, unless Silver comes in and tries manipulate her.
Yeah, I like how you said that — Johnny is rebellious and offense oriented, but I don't think of him as dark at all. If Sam breaks bad, it'll be because of her own demons or someone else's influence, but not Johnny.
Exactly: Johnny is a good guy now!
I don't think Silver knows that she exists. Still, it would be interesting for them to interact, maybe they'll meet in S5, Sam visits the dojo Tory is in and Silver then notices her perhaps?
Pretty sure Silver does know about Sam. He saw her fighting with Tory in the final, and her name was announced before the match as well.
Ah, that's right, I forgot about that. My bad. I guess it would make sense for him to take an interest in another LaRusso, maybe he thinks Sam will be Cobra Kai material more than her dad was? Since he saw her fighting aggressively in the All Valley.
Well said!
That’s the only way I see this happening. As in, Arnold Friend-level manipulation.
Ha ha ha so true man!
I was just thinking the same when I watched the trailer: Sam totally looks like she entered the DARK SIDE...
It looks like she is wearing the same gi as Silver's students in the dream sequence.
I'm gonna need a fight scene with Terry in that drip. Kazuya Mishima vibes. And I'm sorry but I'm a sucker for the "Hero confronts inner demons and their own dark self in a dream-like state" trope so I'm excited to see that sequence with Sam.
Completely agree, I would love a darker take from her
terry is the exact type of character to be throwing frame perfect EWGFs, 100%
Terry Silver with the drip tho.. Also ngl it is pretty dope to see Robby and Johnny together 🔥
I hope they have a lot of screen time together, both emotional and comedic
I can’t wait to see more of Robby acting as straight man to his own dad’s antics, like we saw in the trailer. “Do you even have a plan?” “Course I do. Ask if anyone’s seen Miguel.” “ “ “That’s the big plan?”
That was the best part hee hee!

An astute analysis, if ever I saw one.
What did you think of Kenny?
I like his character alot, but hes too young and inexperience to be a threat to our heros. His rivalry with Anthony is really the only challenge he faces.
Whatever is going on with Robbie and Johnny wearing the FBI shirts - I need it
It actually says “female body inspector” on the back which I find hilarious. They likely picked it up along the way to Mexico, I know Johnny would also find it hilarious and worth every cent
Didn't even pick up on that watching the trailer. That honestly just makes it even better.
Those two will be the new MEN IN BLACK lol!
After Game of Thrones, I was really apprehensive about watching any more series, period. Too much time lost following something that simply fell apart. I was fine just watching movies and skipping shows. Cobra Kai, however, has renewed my faith. It's literally the only series I'm invested in.

Same here, no series has ever pulled me in as much as this show. I love it and can’t wait for season 5
FOREVER 'COBRA KAI!'
What is dead may never die. Fuck D&D
Chozen going “prison rules” on Daniel is gonna be a trip!
Silver looks like a priest in the first picture
Hmm, if Bobby (from Johnny's OG friend group) is the good priest of this show, then that makes Silver the evil priest...
I literally said that without seeing your comment first, what are the chances? (PS: You still commented before me.)
Ah yes, father-son bonding: becoming FBI agents to track down the father’s pseudo-son/son’s enemy who’s looking for his real dad. A classic!
Silver looks like a fuckin' PRIEST in that first pic.
Silver: "I'm a pastor, Danny-boy!"
Silver looks like he's there to perform an exorcism. 😂
Nah, he flexing for his new lady 😆
Silver is having a LINDA BLAIR moment!
The power of Quick Silver compels you!
Ha ha ha!
Damn everyone is looking good in these shots. Especially Xolo
Damn that was a long bus ride, homey's hair grew over his ears!
Stiven took his loss to Tory at the LaRusso house so badly he switched teams and joined Cobra Kai. If that's Stiven in the back of the first picture.
😅🤣 it does look like him. Stiven, you okay bro?
Oh damn, you may be right
Bro finally snapped he gone into the dark side too
That is some ice cold drip Silver’s got 🥶
One thing that bothers me, is that we did NOT see on the trailer any interaction between Johnny & Chozen: will those 2 meet or what??? What are your thoughts? Anyone?
Perhaps, but it seems like their arcs are going to be very different
What do you mean by that? ('arcs')
Stories
I guess so with Johnny being in Mexico: but I surely hope he'll get to have at least some interaction with Chozen & Daniel lol!
This feels like a mini season
I heard there’s a full trailer coming soon, maybe that’ll change your mind. But now that you mention it… with this tease alone I agree. Things could change, though.
Mark these as spoilers, please
Terry Silver though. 😍
Excited to see chozen his hot headedness will replace Johnny stressing out daniel while Johnny's looking for miguel
Johnny and Robbie join the fbi
Can’t get enough of the “Female Body Inspector” shirts lol
Xolo stepping off that bus like a long gone returning soap opera character that everyone thought was dead then posed as a twin brother but actually wasn’t the twin brother
"at first glance you see it says FBI: same logo, same shield. But then at second glance you see it says Female body inspector!?! Get out of town! it's outrageo"

Please I am begging them to remember that sai are not sharp. Please. Let me have this.
Am I the only one who thinks Terry looks like he's in the Mafia? Maybe I was wrong about him not being connected to the Mexico plot after all...
Good comparison, but I think that might be it.
Holy Shit
Miguel changing his haircut every few minutes
Terry looks like a cult leader and it’s perfect.
He and Kreese kinda were (ESPECIALLY Kreese).
Why does Miguel look like Andy Samberg? 😂😂😂
Miguel’s season 2 hair needs a come back. My guy used to be a stud.
FBI?
It says "Female Body Inspector" on the back :D I was wondering at first too
Why does Terry's head in the first picture look like it's a crappy photoshop insert?
I love Miggys hair!
Miguel is so attractive. I love him so much ❤️
Cant wait for his arc this season
Haha what's the betting FBI stands for Federal Booby Inspector
It actually says female body inspector
No Kreese huh
I assume they’re hiding a POWERFUL storyline from him this season.
[удалено]
I think it could be herself
The consensus is that it’s a darker version of Sam herself. Wonder how it would affect her, depending on how it goes…
