Why Daniel Larusso is STILL A BULLY in Cobra Kai Season 6

Daniel has been disappointing as a character so far in Season 6. I expected more understanding and maturity from Miyagi's Number 1 disciple.

Miyagi's ghost be like: "Daniel-san I am not God please stop worshipping me"

[mightguy]

If Mr Miyagi was alive he would be tired of Daniel glazing him 💀

[djafshin]

In cobra kai: Strike first, strike hard, no mercy

In miyagi-do: glaze first, glaze hard, no mercy

[paulevans]

“This man has spent his whole life glazing Miyagi” truer words have been been spoken lol

[kevinasare]

Throughout the show, most times it wasn’t a bad thing he respects Miyagi but S6 it felt WAY WAY too excessive.

The worst part about Daniel is that he tried to put Johnny out of business in multiple ways: Raising the rent and offering free Karate to target Cobra Kai students. Then Johnny teams up with Daniel and Daniel has the gall to have Johnny there as a full-time teacher and he refuses to pay him for it. That pissed me off

[Mars-xcns]

LaRusso treated Johnny with disrespect the first time he saw him decades later.
Mike, Chozen and Johnny all grew up.
Daniel is entitled

[dakotaloven]

Not to mention the SECOND Daniel learned about Miguel he immediately tried to steal him from Johnny as a student

[Smksemksnss]

Daniel treating Miyagi like he's God or smth
Miyagism

[jasonwilliams]

My opinion of Daniel is getting worse as the seasons drag on. He's petulant and childish. He wants the whole thing to be Miyagi do and nothing else. Johnny has to concede to his way of doing things and nothing from him. A partnership is not a one way street and apparently his wife gets that.

I swear Daniel’s whole character in season 6 is glazing Miyagi

[Minetic]

It’s crazy how Johnny is more Miygai Do and Danny is more Cobra Kai now

[GarroshTV]

What even more speaks for Johnnys Development is when Daniel Punches him after getting called out, Johnny just stands there, unphased, not striking back.

[jwilliams]

You would think after Johnny helped Sam fight in the tournament, Daniel would’ve changed by now.
Johnny literally gave up what he built from Eagle fang and Daniel still complained about his techniques.

[anthonychaboude]

Johnny: Goes from a near homeless drunk to a responsible father and loving husband and wise mentor.

Daniel: “MIyAGi WOuLdN’t LiEeee”

[scott]

Larusso is too worried about saying the right thing and projecting the “right” image instead of taking the action to get the right result.

[__-eonu]

**Miyagi doesn't believe in pointless wins in tournaments** Daniel: WE MUST WIN THE SEKAI TAKAI FOR MR MIYAGI

[benl.]

Daniel is such a naive immature person.

The problem is that the show treats Miyagi and Cobra Kai like black and white. Miyagi-do must represent good, and Cobra Kai MUST represent bad.

Both Johnny and Daniel's character arc should've been to outgrow their young selves. Johnny went through this development beautifully, but Daniel is still stuck as a student who follows the word of his sensei to a tee. He should've outgrew the Miyagi-Do seasons ago.

With season 6 showing Miyagi having a dark side, I'm glad they're finally writing the show this way. But damn I feel like they're writing him in circles.

“Daniel-san, u must stop glazing miyagi, Hai!”

[MVangelmx]

It’s like Daniel it’s allergic to giving Johnny any type of credit, jeez.
