Warning: This article contains spoilers for Cobra Kai Season 6
Cobra Kai, the critically acclaimed Netflix series, is currently in the middle of its sixth season, which is also set to be its last. The series took an innovative approach to its final season’s release format, with Part 1 consisting of five episodes released on July 18 earlier this year, Part 2 just premiering on November 15, 2024, and Part 3 scheduled to premiere in February next year. But before that, co-creator Hayden Schlossberg raised expectations among fans with a promising update.
Ahead of the series’ conclusion, Schlossberg sat down for an interview with TV Insider, where he revealed that the final part of Cobra Kai’s Season 6 will end on a high note. He intends to tie up all loose ends and brings all character arcs to a close. He mentioned:
“If you’ve seen the middle five, you’ve seen amazing next-level martial arts that ended in complete chaos and no resolution. And the last five will end in resolution. There is no big cliffhanger at the end of the last five episodes. This is where all the questions get answered. All the characters reach their full arcs. All the mysteries get solved. And you’re still going to see next-level martial arts — and some unexpected twists and turns — but it’s really designed to be an exciting, thrilling, and fulfilling conclusion to this six-season journey that we’ve all been on.”
While Schlossberg did tease that the final part will “really hit you hard,” he also added that the conclusion will “be really fun.” Cobra Kai features an ensemble cast, consisting of Ralph Macchio and William Zabka, who reprise their iconic roles as Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence from the original Karate Kid movies. The series also stars Courtney Henggeler as Amanda LaRusso, Xolo Maridueña as Miguel Diaz, Tanner Buchanan as Robby Keene, Mary Mouser as Samantha LaRusso, and more. Returning Karate Kid actors also include Martin Kove as John Kreese alongside Thomas Ian Griffith as the villainous Terry Silver.
