Meanwhile, back in the Valley, Daniel (Macchio) closes 'Miyagi-Do' following a defeat to 'Cobra Kai' in a tournament.
The rivalry escalates as Daniel and Chozen (Yuji Okumoto) join forces to prevent Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith) from corrupting their students.

What is the plot of 'Cobra Kai' Season 6?
In the last episode of 'Cobra Kai' Season 5, Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith) is exposed for cheating at the tournament, causing his students to abandon him.
Now uncertain about their karate futures, they contemplate whether to join 'Miyagi-Do', 'Eagle Fang', or to leave karate altogether.
Kenny (Dallas Dupree Young), who turned from a nice nerd into a mean bully under Silver's influence, faces a tough decision.
Meanwhile, Chozen (Yuji Okumoto) is recovering from serious injuries after a fight and seeks comfort after confessing his feelings for Kumiko.
Two big unresolved issues remain: Kreese's (Martin Kove) escape from prison and his desire for revenge, possibly against Silver.
The upcoming Sekai Taikai international championships give Johnny (William Zabka), Daniel (Ralph Macchio), and their students a chance to show their karate skills worldwide, guided by Mr. Miyagi's teachings.
Season 6 will focus on the showdown at the Sekai Taikai tournament, where the characters' futures in karate will be decided.
