Remember first when 'Cobra Kai' was released, and people lost their calm as this was the first time that? In the history of cinema, it was happening for the first time that even the spin-off series would have the OG cast of the actual movie which the series is 'inspired' from. As the season released and they rose to fame, they had a sense of pressure to live up to the expectation of its audience who helped them receive numerous awards and nominations. The third season was nominated for Outstanding Comedy Series at the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards.

Cobra Kai is a martial arts comedy-drama television series and a sequel to the original 'The Karate Kid' films by Robert Mark Kamen. The series was created by Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, and Hayden Schlossberg, and is distributed by Sony Pictures Television. In August 2021, ahead of the fourth season premiere, the series was renewed for a fifth season, which is set to premiere on September 9, 2022. The fourth season had a positive response from critics. As of January 27, 2022, it holds a 95% approval rating, with an average score of 7.90 out of 10 based on 37 reviews. Rotten Tomatoes' critical consensus reads: 'Cobra Kai still delights in the fourth season that mines great fun from shifting alliances, chiefly the uneasy truce between Johnny Lawrence and Daniel LaRusso.'

Over the course of the series, the 'Cobra Kai' creative team has gradually built a substantial bond between Tory and Kreese. Peyton List, who plays Tory Nichols on the Netflix series, confers how Kreese's internment will negatively impact Tory in an exclusive interview with Screen Rant. The actress also speaks of the concrete relationship between the two, highlighting the fact that her character does not have much guidance, and how it takes a major toll on her. 

Peyton says, "I love my relationship with Kreese and getting to act with Marty. But I think Kreese is a parental figure to Tory, and she doesn’t really have much guidance. So, for him to be locked up and to be away, it takes a major toll on her and it’s probably one of the hardest things she’s ever been through."

I guess only time will tell how the situation plays out this season however there is a piece of good news as well, In season 5, Sean Kanan will reprise his role as Mike Barnes from 'The Karate Kid III'. In addition to Kanan returning, Alicia Hannah-Kim will be joining the cast as Kim Da-Eun. Dallas Dupree Young, who joined the show in season four as Kenny Payne, has been upgraded to a series regular. It all builds to an exciting Cobra Kai season 5, which premieres Friday, September 9, 2022, on Netflix.
