Warning: spoilers ahead for Cobra Kai Season 6, part 2!Cobra Kai Season 6, Part 2 ended with a line that makes perfect sense, but should realistically have been said much sooner than it was. Despite being a new addition to the cast of Cobra Kai Season 6 Part 2 Carston Norgaard’s Gunther Braun is given the responsibility of wrapping up the second batch of episodes in the show’s final season. Although this would be an honor under certain circumstances, Gunther’s role is far from being someone who summarizes a positive series of events.
Cobra KaiSekai Taikai has been the main focus of Karate Kid final season of the spinoff show. While it initially seemed like the tournament was coming to an imminent end, a sudden brawl that led to the shocking death of Brandon H. Lee’s Kwon Jae-Sung quickly brought the proceedings to a halt. While Gunther finally gave the order to “Cut off the power“, Much more damage had already been done than just the loss of a competitor.
Cobra Kai’s Sektai Taikai fight was broadcast for an oddly long period of time
Someone other than Gunther could have given the order to stop the transmission
Sektai Taikai is an internationally broadcast eventtherefore it is seen by many more people than those physically present. Therefore, countless spectators witnessed the massive brawl breaking out, as well as Gunter being temporarily taken out of commission by the disgraced Russian sensei. While the tournament may have started out as a traditional gathering of potential Karate champions, the event has since evolved into a much more commercialized event with shiny and impressive branding. So, it doesn’t make sense that violence continues to be shot and broadcast.
It shouldn’t have taken Kwon’s death and Gunther’s leadership for the film crew to stop documenting the chaos.
Although Gunther was unconscious for most of the sceneThere was certainly someone else who could have given the order to cease transmitting the signal around the world. Seeing the Sekai Taikai spiral out of control in a whirlwind of feet and fists would be poison to the tournament’s business partners and the tournament’s overall reputation. It shouldn’t have taken Kwon’s death and Gunther’s leadership for the film crew to stop documenting the chaos, though it at least makes sense why such a moment would be so troubling.
Why Cobra Kai Season 6 Allowed the Fight to Continue to Be Shown on TV
Cobra Kai has other main characters still in the USA
With almost all major Cobra Kai character in Barcelona, ​​there was very little to do for those left behind in California. Sekai Taikai was a comprehensive eventand the program only made brief visits home during events such as Miguel’s mother’s illness and attempts to get Kenny to come and join Miyagi-do abroad. Therefore, certain compromises had to be made to make a greater effort to include established characters in Cobra Kai Season 6, part 2.
One of these concessions was to allow the fight to be broadcast in full. While it doesn’t make much sense, it at least allowed those still in the United States to witness everything unfold as it happened. Fortunately, it also offers something a little more to the violence. Being so far from the action, watching the Cobra Kai the characters support their Miyagi-do teammates and family members in the midst of a fight, highlighting the helplessness they must have felt.
