uh hi!!
so, i’m currently refreshing all of my social media accounts as i’m trying to... well, refresh. revamp. restart. whatever. and, first off, i’m no longer posting my art here— this is now a personal blog. and i’ll be posting art on xkeengs instead.
“isn’t that your url now?” it was my url for this blog. but if you look closely i’ve removed the “s”. so now it’s just. xkeeng. woo.
so uh, if you’re following me for art, i’d like to once again direct you to xkeengs dot tumblr dot cum
okay byeee
cobra kai spent six seasons emphasising that there was a difference between cobra kai while johnny was in charge and cobra kai while kreese, silver or the two together were in charge, including demonstrating that johnny realised early on that kreese's mentality doesn't work (and was something he was constantly unlearning), that cobra kai needed to change and taught his students to be tough but merciful and honourable while he was running cobra kai (in s2 btw which most people like to erase) and helping people and showcasing that kreese was teaching (and treating) his students that they were soldiers in a war and other teenagers were the enemy who needed to be destroyed at all cost and it was this, not cobra kai but kreese's teachings (and his approach to "no mercy") specifically that was always going to end up getting someone killed one day and that's exactly what happened and it was what finally woke him up to what he's actually been doing, what he's been teaching and how poisonous, destructive and harmful it is and that's also what finally made him realise that johnny was right, that cobra kai needed to change because kreese's mindset, that teaching doesn't work and it never did and how badly he screwed everything up because he couldn't accept or handle what johnny wanted cobra kai to be.
no offence because i really don't mean this in a mean way but, did people hear miguel say he was going to pay axel back for what happened to robby and then just fast-forward through the rest of that miguel & johnny scene? because johnny literally tells him that he can't go into a fight with anger in his heart and wanting revenge because if he does, he's going to lose and that the reason daniel won was because he fought to honour everything he learnt which miguel in turn says that's what he's going to do, he's going to fight to honour everything johnny taught him before johnny tells him he has to fight for himself as well and how far he's come.
just thinking about the fact that johnny was down 0-2 during his fight with wolf, same as he was with daniel in '84 and how after a little encouragement from daniel, he was able to focus and quickly made up those points and won the fight. like, it's interesting to look at this now when you remember that kreese's entire reasoning for forcing him to fight dirty was that there was no way for him to come back from being down 0-2.
no offence but i don't know how people watched all six seasons of cobra kai and completely missed the fact that the show has been telling you repeatedly that there is a big difference between cobra kai when johnny was in charge and cobra kai when kreese and/or silver were in charge.
something something robby vs axel was actually the boys semi finals. it wasn't the finals and if cobra kai hadn't nominated a replacement for kwon than there wouldn't have been a boys finals at all. the fight would've been over and regardless of whether it was robby or axel who won the semi's, technically, they would've been the boys champion by default. neither of them would've actually had that title because they earned it and fought for it. they would've had it solely because kwon was dead and there was no one for them to face off against in order to win the finals.
there's actually something to be said about the way the stans talk about both sam & robby as characters and the fact that so many of them act like their characters are literally defined by whether or not they win a children's karate tournament, whether or not they win a trophy to the point where they cannot even conceive the possibility that they could be so much more than that and that they might not be defined by karate.
