    What do you think it's in store for Miguel in Cobra Kai Season 6?

      Hopefully Like in Season 5 his back is stronger than ever. I hope he doesn’t hurt it again. I want him to get training from Chozen. I hope he learns the offensive Style of Miyagi Doo. And miyagi do secrets, I hope Dainel trains him too in whatever he knows possibly Kata and other techniques we don’t know of. I hope he gets training from Mike Too. I think he will learn all these and become the best fighter on their side.

      I believe Anything in S6 is possible fr, they could Literally go any route and we wouldn't expect it, but what I Expect and think is in S6 most likely is that Anthony And Kenny will be top 5 eventually and I believe someone will be taught the secrets and/or full arsenal of Daniel and Chozen or something similar to it, like Miguel or Tory learning the different ways of defense by Chozen.

    I love this video man! Miguel is such an underrated character in the show who is misunderstood a lot of times because of his injury and how that physically and mentally affected him shortly after, people say in previous seasons like seasons 1 and 2 that Miguel was better in those seasons because they took place before his injury and now people call him "nerfed" because he cannot fight like how he previously did or handles certain situations emotionally when it came to Johnny as a father figure, finding his actual father and Sam breaking up with him. But people don't realize that through his injury, we saw growth and maturity in his overall character, recovering from his injury to further learning and balancing his skills in Myagi-Do, and making amends with Robby. Miguel has proven to be the heart of this show since the first season, seeing his arcs from seasons 1 to 5 has been such a treat to watch and I'm pumped to see how they conclude his character in the final season.
    Ik to some I was "yapping" but that was genuinely my overall analysis on his character

    Miguel losing the captain placement match automatically opens room for him to be the hero of S6 and get his redemption moment.
    I think this season is where Dani realizes how the old style of Miyagi-do can not compete with the evolution of Kreeeses Cobra Kai anymore. It's looking like the OG Cobra Kai members on our side will have to tap into their Cobra Kai bag again if they want to compete with the new guys and the anger of Tory and Kenny. We are finally getting Prime Cobra Kai Miguel again this season.

    While he is not the best written & best developed of the teens, Miguel is mainly my favorite character because of his relatability, kind heart, fun personality, charm, charisma, & by far the best acted character of the teens. As a fighter, he's a Bad-@$$ & personally, I think he is the Best Fighter Of The Teens despite no longer being the Underdog. He's a Former Underog who remained a Bad-@$$ Top-Dog who is able to balance CK & MD in a similart fashion to Robby, whom he is equal to (I give the slight edge to Miggy) I love his relationship with Johnny as it mirrors Johnny & Kreese while also being The CK/EF interpretation/reconstruction of Daniel & Miyagi. Much like Robby, Miguel hybrids & emulates from both Daniel (personality) & Johnny (his primary parralel journey wise & in spirit). Miguel definilty works as the redeemed Johnny 2.0/Daniel In CK reconstruction. I also love his relationship with Sam (as VERY flawed as it is) as his chemistry with Sam is wholesome & at times heartfelt. They defintely pay homage to the chemistry Daniel & Ali have while being the redeemed version of Johnny & Ali when it comes to the stability of their relationship. My main negative with Miguel is that he is a bit entitiled, lacks some empathy, & hasnt taken FULL accountability in terms of his actions when it comes to his rivalry with Robby & him being stagnant in terms of growth for the last 2 recent seasons. But overall, despite the criticisms in regards to Miguels flaws is valid, he is overly villified in the most unesscary ways possible. They have 1 final season to give Miguel the most bad-@$$ way to end on in terms of his Johnny 2.0 Ex-Degenerate Arc.
    Hes not an irredeemable sadistic @$$hole who will never grow as many pesstmistic & terribly cynical fans on here are spewing out in their own bitter & pathetic drivel. S6 has gotta have Miguel escape Johnny's Shadow (while still keeping their relationship), have him take accountability in all his past actions, have him fight for something bigger than himself, & have him step up as a Boyfriend to Sam. Miguel's Character Arc should end with him giving it his all in the ST & taking a Honorable a loss like a True Bad-@$$ in The ST (like Vegeta in The Tournament Of Power) like a Champ while potentially winning sponsors to safeguard his future when it comes to his education & college. Miguel was always meant to be better than Johnny back in 84 & it would be a nice for him to take a Humble Loss while also gifting Robby the Trophy like Johnny did for Daniel along with supporting/rooting for his girl Sam if she wins The Female-Division as redemption for not being there for his Bae in S4. Plus, it would be super satisfying for Miguel to pay homage to Daniel in KK2 by facing a returning Hector in a real-life death battle in a similar fashion to that of Daniel VS Chozen while defending his family & loved ones in a final showdown after Robby wins The ST. I'll still very proud of my boy Miguel if he doesnt win as narratively Robby makes the most sense to win. Miguel will always be Bad-@$$ regardless. Regardless both boys (Miguel & Robby) are great characters & as people. At this point, its just a petty d\*\*k measuring contest. The criticisms regarding Miguel's lack of growth & accountability in the recent season is valid as I as a Miguel Fan has called him out in certain things & Miguel fans for being overly bias & unreasonable but some Miguel haters take it to the extreme to vilify him in the most unesscary way. Doesn't Matter If it's trolling, it still came out of bitterness & malice. There are users that claim that they don't hate Miguel & accuses his fans for not wanting him to grow or change (I do obviously) but the comments prove otherwise as they villify him disproportionately & unreasonably to the point that it feels like a hateboner. Miguel deserves to be criticized on alot of things including Johnny but villifying is petty bitterness. He does lack empathy sometimes, is a bit entitled, & is a bit protected by the writers I'll admitt but it doesn't mean he's this irredeemable malicious abuser as some says he is & neither is Johnny (though I do criticize his treatment & lack of effort when it comes to Robby). Both Miguel & Robby ain't perfect, sinless, or saints by any means. They are just flawed good kids.
    If people actually think Miguel is worse or irredeemable that he is like his father or the worst version of Johnny, then they are high as hell. Miguel, at his worst, is a Flawed But Honorable Anti-Hero Typical Arch-Rival like Vegeta. Miguel definitely deserves sympathy but cutting him slack for how he is with Robby & his relationship issues is on him. We can't always coddle him. In conclusion, At his best, Miguel is a flawed bad-@$$ good hearted Protagonist/Deuteragonist but he needs to step up & take more accountability because he is not innocent nor a Saint when it comes to the conflicts in this show.Its reasons like "Miguel is a Gaslighting Abuser" is why I left the subreddit. I feel bad for the amount of former redditors who joined the discord because of the amount of brain-cells they lost hearing some Bitter Fans drivel. Miguel does have alot of negative tendencies (Gaslighting included) but that should not define who he can be now. I too am a bit underwhelmed by the lack of character development from both Miguel & Johnny since S3. Hell, I even call out Miguel & Johnny fans for being heavilly bias. Robby Fans do have valid criticisms & to a degree, I understand, empathize, & respect their views. But there are some (alot) that have a severe warped view of Miguel that is often times disproportionate & unreasonable. So don't let them get to you. Let's just hope Miguel WILL develop in the final-season. To quote Daniel in S1 "He's not a Monster. He's just a guy with alot of demons". Miguel does deserve to be criticized but not overly vilified.
    Miguel's character arc & purpose is more about being a better man than Johnny was, him not following under the shadow/footsteps of Johnny's past behaviors as a teen, & balancing his love life with Sam in which Johnny failed with Ali. Another is Miguel also playing a major part in giving Johnny purpose & a roadmap to his redemption. Yes, Miguel & Johnny are essentially Daniel & Miyagi to one another but its very apparent that Miguel's Character Arc is being a redeemed Johnny. In terms of "Main Teen Character" Miguel, Robby, & Sam share that title equally. Miguel is merely advertised as "The One Main Teen" but its clear, he shares that with Sam & Robby as a Trio. Miguel's Character doesnt depend on a Tournament Victory either as shown in S4. Miguel has already proven that he has redeemed himself & is already a Champ by heart by beating his injuries in S3 & fighting like honorable bad-@$$ compared to 1x10 going forward. Both Miguel & Robby are equally not dependent of the tournament win & both are deserving of it. By the end of this Miguel's Real Trophy is Sam. With both boys parrelleling elements of Daniel, one of them is getting that girl at the end & the other, the final tournament trophy & I dont think 1 is getting both. Im justs saying, its more preferable for the 2 characters who emulates elements of Daniel to have a Half/Half & Win/Win for both boys. Miguel's Trophy is Sam as his Ali (something Daniel & Johnny never achieved) & Robby getting The Tournament Win as a parrelel reverse of his father & homage to Daniel. Both Different versions of the Karate-Kids getting a win. Sam is considered to be this generation's Ali & Miguel did what Daniel & Johnny couldnt as a fusion of both men.

      LMAO this is the first time I've seen the Cobra Kai subreddit's vilification of Miguel be called out on another platform. I was initially intrigued by the different perspectives and rightful criticism of the fan favorites.
      However the rants started to drift away from criticism and became biased rants while overanalyzing negative traits and making him out to be this narcissistic gaslighter with no redemptive qualities.
      It's mostly Miguel but Johnny and Hawk often get the same treatment while Robby and Tory are put on pedestals ironically enough.

      @@TheIndulging I love Both Miguel & Robby as characters. Im mainly Non-Bias when it comes to Miguel being my favorite character as Miguel's past actions in S1 & 2 not being addressed & the lack of accountability when it came to Miguel starting thr rivalry with Robby & escalating the school-fight. But I hate that he is overly villified & downplayed as a character as a result of this to the point that some believe him to be either a stagnant Gary-Stu or a Gaslightet who was never meant to grow as a character despite all evidence to the contrary that he has grown (though it couldve been illustrated better). Miguel has flaws that are admittedly overlooked & should be callled out upon. Miguel is a good hearted character who deserved to be criticized to a degree but not sadistically villified & same goes for Robby.

    I think it would be best if Robbie wins the Sakai Takai tournament. Bc Robbie has been in Johnny's shadow, probably his whole life. Especially since he decided to learn karate, enter and failed on two occasions to win the all valley. What better way to step out of your father's shadow then to win a tournament your father never competed in?

    Julie is 3 inches taller. Julie appears to me to be in much better physical condition. Sam would have to drop weight to be in Julie’s weight class thus negating her power advantage or Julie adding pounds to fight up in Sam’s weight class thus giving Julie height and power advantage. I’m going with Julie.

    I think Miguel won't win the sekai tekai because I think he will fight something even more worth than a trophy which is his family as I have theory that his father will come back and more cause chaos for his family which will probably force Miguel out of the tournament which will probably create lessons that you can use karate for much greater things instead of winning tournament's
