Rarely a show would make me want more and this is one of them. The second season finale was engaging and gripping, so much so that I was blown away by the level of its execution.
And this finale leaves so many open questions about what's gonna happen next. Cannot wait for the next season!
Holy moly.. what an explosive finale that turned out to be so much bigger and crazier than I deres dreaming as well as rounding up the season in perfect fashion!
This episode sees all the conflict that was build up EXPLODE in an epic clash between Miyagi DO and Cobra Kai at school as they all try to settle the beef they had wirh each other!
They fight was excellent! Amazing choeography and camerawork! Editing is great as well! Lots of long takes that makes it feel like one big organic fight with characters fighting simoutaniously!
The conclusion was shocking proving that the show is not affraid to go all out!
Johnny's arc as the tragic person who just wants do the right thing, but is held back by who he once was and all the bad Luck, is perfect! He takes all the fault and guilt! He becomes a realistic person with realistic flaws!
Overall an incredible finale to a great season! The characterwork on Johnny is the best part of it all and William is just amazing in the role!

Damn great episode, kinda unrealistic in some parts but still great. Shocing ending. That was a great cliffhanger. Cant wait to watch season 3 tonight .
Someone said you this episode makes the audience shocked and morally confused. That's true, but I also think that is the point. The bad blood accumulated among students of the two dojos, combined with the truly dangerous skills they acquired, was a recipe for bad things to happen. After a long timing training, the kids end up applying karate to personal feuds, romantic jealousy and settling of scores. Even with the most Myagi-like lessons, that will tend to lead to grave outcomes when all the tensions that escalated through the season climax in a chaotic confrontation between teens that don't know when to stop, are not aware of their own strenght, don't know how to use their skills responsibly, and control their emotions.
Both Johnny and Daniel will have to live now with the consequences of their actions. Unfortunately, that is a recipe for a season 3 that starts slowly, as people will need to find a new relationship with karate before going back to training. I hope they will pull it off, because after the awesome climax and all the cliffhangers, there will be protests outside youtube if there is no season 3.

Characters face off with their inner demons, they make choices about what kind of person they want to be.
This season focuses a lot in teen drama but at the end you understand that Miguel and Robby are reflections of our main characters Johnny and Daniel.
