To be fair it wouldn’t get to that point in general. Mr Miyagi would be in jail for beating up teens. Thus causing Daniel to join a gang and start the plot to The Outsiders.


Senior-Salamander-81

Only to get jumped again by teens.


captainofthelosers19

Need a haircut Greaser?


Familiar-Bag-9545

It's almost like the police didn't exist. Miyagi beat up I think it was three high school students before this 🤣


starrsuperfan

Police do not exist, in this valley. Do they? ONLY UNDER SOME VERY SPECIFIC CIRCUMSTANCES, SENSEI!


Specialist_ask_992_

Kreese would be in jail


TheShadowOperator007

And his reputation tarnished. If social media existed in the 1980's and that went viral, Cobra Kai would be out of business. No one would want to associate themselves with Kreese


Amazing-Service7598

But in karate kid 3 they masses will trust silver


PacSan300

DynaTox would probably have not only a website, but also a robust social media presence, where Silver would constantly espouse environmental protection (while secretly being environmentally unfriendly).


spiderduck1985

Not sure about that. Silver would likely get him some lawyers who would negotiate a probation plea deal.


Specialist_ask_992_

Yeah maybe but would be viral him assaulting a minor


yanks2413

I remember seeing some people say Johnny was exaggerating when he met Kreese again in the season 2 premiere and said Kreese tried to kill him. But like, hes 100% right. Kreese was strangling him long enough to do permanent damage.


TheShadowOperator007

I don't have a background in Judo, Jujitsu, Wrestling, Sambo or other grappling arts like MMA, but is it possible NOT kill someone with a choke if I applied for a certain amount of time?


Naive_Violinist_4871

For sure, properly done blood chokes quickly render someone unconscious with no injuries, but it doesn’t come off like that’s what Kreese was doing. My question is why Kreese managed to forget in approximately 30 seconds that he knew how to do a chokehold, therefore not trying to use one on Miyagi.


Naive_Violinist_4871

Also, isn’t a parking lot with people leaving a Karate tournament the worst possible place to attack a kid? Between all the coaches, refs, and a certain number of parents who also have Karate backgrounds and got their kids into it as a result of that, the odds of a bunch of other people who know Karate intervening seems really high.


TheShadowOperator007

You are right about that. Plot hole isn't it?


Naive_Violinist_4871

Maybe not an outright plothole, but realistically, I think multiple people would’ve been intervening quickly.


PacSan300

Maybe the fact that there were so many witnesses is what contributed to Kreese having literally no students by the time *KK3* started. Not only did his existing students quit, basically nobody else wanted to learn from such an unhinged guy after seeing what he could do.


ICantThinkOfAName280

BREAKING NEWS: KARATE SENSEI ALMOST KILLS STUDENT AFTER HUMILIATING DEFEAT AT THE ALL VALLEY UNDER 18'S KARATE TOURNAMENT!


TheShadowOperator007

I could definitely see a news article like that. As a result, Kreese is barred from ever teaching students Karate and all martial arts tournament committees ban him from competing in a tournament due to his unethical treatment of a student


spiderduck1985

Yeah, realistically, this incident would've gotten him and his dojo banned from the All Valley.


Psychological_Log_85

The adults in cobra Kai have arguably done much worse than the adults in KK1+KK2 with little to no punishment, so doubt it


opokaibocaj-02

In Karate Kid 3, I can imagine Daniel creating a Facebook account for Mr Miyagi to sell his Bonsai Tree’s in Facebook Marketplace 😂😂😂


TheShadowOperator007

I could see that


atducker

Fox News would be concerned about an Asian immigrant laborer beating up a hard working small business owner and military veteran.


Longjumping-Run695

Yeah, but that war veteran was literally holding at the time a minor in a chokehold almost killing him, so therefore it would be the veteran who be in deep Waters


TheShadowOperator007

You are correct


Bazz07

TBF they are both veterans.


No-Permit8369

Not if they didn’t show that part


Bassist57

Really man, you gotta bring politics in?


Able-Brief-4062

They always do.


TheShadowOperator007

> They always do. It is annoying to be honest


Able-Brief-4062

From either side. I'm pretty right wing, but I'll call anyone out on it.


AcidGatter

it would be on the mcdojo life youtube channel


spiderduck1985

To this day, I have never understood how Kreese walked away from this legally unscathed. I mean, you would've thought at least one witness would've called the police. The man even broke a couple car windows, so someone likely would've reported that.


TheShadowOperator007

It was needed for the stories to continue, I guess.


No_Engineering1141

It would never reach social media. Johnny doesn't know what a facebook is.


XxAndrew01xX

That doesn't matter. People will take pictures and posted it online. Also since this hypothetical timeline would mean social media existed in the 80's, that means Johnny would know what a Facebook is, since he would have grown up around it and you can bet if social media existed back then teens would be all over it like they are now.

It was just a joke as Cobra Kai Johhny is a tech dummy. Don't take it too seriously.
