Part 1 of Cobra Kai season 6 concluded with a significant disclosure on Mr. Miyagi and his relationship to the Sekai Taikai. Hidden in his dojo, Daniel La Russo found a trunk containing dried blood on both ends and a headband bearing the Sekai Taikai logo. Fans of Cobra Kai and Daniel's path as karate practitioners are left wondering what this startling revelation means for their paths going forward.
The Sekai Taikai headband found in Mr. Miyagi's trunk begs several issues. Although it doesn't prove Mr. Miyagi participated in the tournament, it definitely shows he connected to it. Co-showrunners of Cobra Kai, Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg, have confirmed that this reveal will have a major effect on Daniel heading into the Sekai Taikai. Daniel now finds himself realizing that the past of his mentor might not be as quiet as he assumed.
Daniel will surely start to doubt everything he knew about his mentor once the headband and newspaper clipping regarding a 1947 assault and robbery Mr. Miyagi was suspected of committing come to light. Particularly as Daniel tries to process this fresh information, this will probably strain his relationship with Johnny Lawrence.
Furthermore greatly influencing the dynamics of the Cobra Kai universe could be the disclosure of Mr. Miyagi's past. It could help to explain Mr. Miyagi's extreme privacy about his past and his refusal to let Daniel compete in contests. It could also help to explain Mr. Miyagi's rivalry with Master Kim Sun-Yung, who might have participated in the Sekai Taikai and the events of 1947.
A gripping story that might develop in Cobra Kai season 6 part 2 is the likelihood Mr. Miyagi was framed for the 1947 attack and robbery. It would give a chance for atonement and help to explain his covert past. This turn of events might also help to explain why Master Kim Sun-Yung is collaborating with Kreese to eliminate Miyagi-Do at the Sekai Taikai.
The dramatic and thrilling season 6 part 2 has been set up by Cobra Kai season 6 part 1. The disclosure of Mr. Miyagi's past guarantees to upset the equilibrium of power in the Cobra Kai world. Watching Daniel's path to know his mentor's past and the ramifications for the Sekai Taikai will be essential for any storyline.
