Cobra Kai is reaching its conclusion. The Karate Kid spin-off kicked its way into our hearts and reminded us of why we fell in love with the 80s classic in the first place. The Netflix series (formally a YouTube Original) is returning for its sixth and final season after the legendary battle between Cobra Kai, Eagle Fang, and Miyagi Do. As Johnny and Daniel try to move forward, they are constantly haunted by ghosts of their past. Now, they must work together and defeat Cobra Kai once and for all. The final season of Cobra Kai will bring an end to the Miyagiverse in epic fashion. Here’s everything you need to know about season 6.
Is Season 6 the Final Season of Cobra Kai?
Cobra Kai was renewed for its sixth season, and the creative team soon released a letter to fans explaining that the next season would be the show’s last.
Here’s what they had to say:
While this may be a bittersweet day for the fandom, the Miyagiverse has never been stronger.

The next season of Cobra Kai has yet to have a release date. The series is set to start production in May of this year, meaning we might get the show in the fall or winter this year at the earliest. As it stands, we should expect a 2024 release for Cobra Kai season 6. Who Are the Cast of Cobra Kai?The Cobra Kai cast is one of the most enormous assembled casts ever put on television. It features legacy actors from the Karate Kid movies and a slew of series original characters. The heads of the snake are William Zabka and Ralph Macchio, who reprise their roles as Johnny Lawrence and Daniel LaRusso, respectively. Martin Kove (John Kreese), Thomas Ian Griffith (Terry Silver), Sean Kanan (Mike Barnes), and Yuji Okumoto (Chozen Toguchi) also make their return from The Karate Kid trilogy.
The next generation of karate kids are led by the talented Xolo Maridueña (Miguel Diaz), Mary Mouser (Samantha LaRusso), Tanner Buchanan (Robby Keene), Jacob Bertrand (Eli “Hawk” Moskowitz), Peyton List (Tory Nichols), Gianni DeCenzo (Demetri), Dallas Dupree Young (Kenny Payne), Joe Seo (Kyler Park), and Griffin Santopietro (Anthony LaRusso).

What is Cobra Kai Season 6 About?
Set after the events of The Karate Kid trilogy, Cobra Kai follows Johnny Lawrence as he tries to turn his life around. To do so, he returns to his roots and trains Miguel Diaz, the first student in the new Cobra Kai. The return of Cobra Kai ignites a fire under Daniel, as his high school bully and a source of his trauma have come back to haunt him, leading to him starting his own dojo. Five seasons later, Daniel and Johnny put aside their differences to take down the revamped Cobra Kai under Terry Silver. After defeating Silver, LaRusso and Lawrence’s dojo will compete in the Sekai Taikai, the pinnacle of competitive karate. There is a power vacuum now that Silver is gone. With Kreese out of prison, Mike Barnes in the fold, and sensei Kim (Alicia Hannah-Kim) now the de facto leader of Cobra Kai, things are sure to get tense.
The final season of Cobra Kia a many plot lines to wrap up. Johnny and Carmen are expecting a baby, Robby is still trying to help Kenny, and Miyagi-Do and Eagle Fang are entering the biggest karate tournament in the world. There’s a lot to cover, but this wouldn’t be the first time the series had to juggle multiple storylines. Here’s hoping the show sticks the landing.
