What is Cobra Kai was or had a Musical? Well, this is what I think a couple of the songs in Season 1 would be like.
As someone who views the beginning of the show as both Johnny and Daniel being the main characters, the first song of the hypothetical musical should definitely be a duet between them. However, since the show was known for being 'The Johnny Spinoff' in it's earlier seasons, I think it's fitting that Daniel's POV comes first, an upbeat, piano and ukulele heavy section with generally happy themes. About 75% through Daniel's section, it transitions to a commercial for his autoshop where he sings about his great deals and awesome ethical code and it's all going gre-
And then the TV shuts off and we see Johnny's reflection in the screen. We get a bitter, guitar-heavy section of Johnny ranting about how his life has gone completely downhill ever since that one tournament. It goes until the chorus kicks in, where Daniel and Johnny sing their sections together and it ends with the lines, "And it's all uphill/downhill...from here." Obviously the song would be called From Here.
Next, I'm thinking a Miguel and Johnny duet of Miguel trying to convince Johnny to teach him karate after he saved him from Kyler. Think if My Superhero Movie (TTGTTM) and The Other Side (TGS) had a lovechild. Miguel starts singing about how he can make him strong and then Johnny cuts in about how karate ruined his life and that Miguel is better off just not drawing attention to himself. It ends with Johnny yelling at Miguel to fuck off and Miguel does, well, fuck off. The song would be called What You Could Make Me.
The next song is admittedly somewhat odd to place here but it's a Demetri solo called Under The Radar, basically about how it's better for social outcasts like them to stick to themselves and while he could yearn for something bigger, he finds that time better spent studying for MIT, building models, basically nerd stuff. I'm not entirely sure what it would sound like, but I think it would have some Daft Punk style tech motifs. I also just think it would be funny if Demetri was the first character to get a solo. It shouldn't be more than a minute and a half long though.
Next is a Kyler Villain Song (that sentence feels so wrong to type). It's basically the inverse of Under The Radar where it's basically Kyler just bragging about being tough and popular and saying how nerds like Miguel can't even hope to step up to gods like him. Just Kyler riding an ego high for two minutes. I'd call it Hopeless.
Then, a Miguel solo. It would take place after Carmen forbids him from training with Johnny. It'd be similar to How Far I'll Go except with Spanish guitars and drums. It'd definitely have aspects of What You Could Make Me, Hopeless, and Under the Radar in there. It'd be called Break The Cycle and the chorus would always start with 'If I could break the cycle' until the last one where it's 'When I break the cycle'.
The next song is a song for my glorious ki-Robby, I mean Robby. It would take place when Johnny goes to confront him at his mom's house when he's hanging out with his scumbag friends. It's basically an alternative rock song about how Johnny blew his chance to actually be a father to him so he better not pretend to care now. It would be similar to Hell is Forever from Hazbin Hotel, especially with Robby's friends providing background vocals and how it would end with Robby literally throwing Johnny out of the apartment. This song would be called Second Chances Don't Exist.
The next song takes place when Daniel visits Miyagi's grave, where he considers Amanda's words about being an asshole for raising the rent. It's about how much Cobra Kai's hurt him but he's lost himself in his trauma and shit like that. I guess it can be called I've Lost Myself or something like that. Honestly, not to sure on that name so consider it a placeholder.
Next up, a Hawk solo. This song is, and I'm not joking, just Let It Go from Frozen. It's about Eli's transition into Hawk, starting with him lamenting about his status and vulnerability before resolving to make a change and become a different version of himself, craft a new persona, spread his wings and become The Hawk. I'd call it Flip The Script.
Up next is a song about Daniel training Robby through the unconventional ways of Mister Miyagi, think Warrior of the Mind from Epic The Musical except less intense and with some flutes and drums. It would be Daniel heavy but Robby would have a few lines about how all this training sucks and he feels like it's just a way to make him do chores. That is until he sees the progress he's made thanks to the training and the final chorus is a full on duet between the two. Idk what this song would be called so feel free to suggest any names.
Then, definitely a love duet between Miguel and Sam, I don't actually have an example to compare it to so this section will be short as hell. I don't have a name for it either lmao.
Next, you know that scene in the junkyard of Johnny training the new Cobras? Turning it into a song. It would be if You've Got The Touch and Make A Man Out Of You did a fusion dance, and it would most likely be a Johnny solo. It would also be an inverse of the Daniel-Robby song from earlier. I'd call it something like Pain is Progress. (Not very sure on this name either).
The season would end with a reprise of From Here, with Daniel and Johnny both thinking about their respective victories and losses in the tournament, Daniel reassuring Robby that his second place trophy while Johnny laments about having misled his students and driven his son further away. The reprise would end with Kreese literally appearing in the dojo and singing the last line. Alright, so, since I don't want this to be too long and Cobra Kai is a VERY long series, I'm going to do one of these for each season. And they split Season 6 into parts for some reason, each part will have it's own post. @queen-cobra now you can stop RUSHING ME (jkjk)
Moon: It's pride month, Sam, you know what that means. Sam: Huh, what- Sam: Do you want us to do like, gay karate-what?
Funniest thing is if you gave Sabrina a space potion she probably could move the star to make it arrive at Jupiter again
u go up to a girl who u bullied/helped to bully for years and think she’s rejecting you as a friend when really you just weren’t the person she wanted to see at that exact moment but in general she thinks ur alright and u ask her is there anything i can do to change ur mind about hating me forever and ever…? and she asks you ‘can you realign the stars?’ and you think wow. what a sick metaphor for asking me if i could turn back time and not have played a hand in her childhood trauma. i will say no and leave in tears. but no. marinette’s ACTUALLY asking if sabrina knows how to reschedule a star’s arrival at Jupiter because of its astrological significance and how that could positively affect her romantic relationship with adrien I Love This Show
Yeah, he doesn’t do much, though
What if the Ladybug wielder could speak things into existence? Like, say a previous Ladybug made up the word "platypus" and all of a sudden semi-aquatic egg-laying mammals popped up in the world?
I mean, if she needs a platypus, she probably could get one.
I let it go long, I let you stray too far
Now I know, now I know, now I know exactly what you are
Na-na-na-na-na-na, a motherfucker
Na-na-na-na-na-na, a motherfucker
I don't think you meant to hurt me
'Cause I don't think it meant a thing at all
At all, at all, at all
At all, at all, at all
At all, at all, to you
Na na na, na na, na
The motherfucker
Na na na, na na, na
The motherfucker
I never saw your scars
I never knew your pain
Now I know, now I know
Now I know we’ll never be the same
But I, I keep on waiting
Waiting to miss you less than I do
And I do, oh, I do, yes I still do miss you
But maybe it's all on me
Dismissing every sigh and every glance and every turn
No, no, no, he's a motherfucker
Maybe there's something here for us to glean
For you to teach and me to try and learn
No, no, no, he's a motherfucker
'Cause you may never change, but I can’t help but yearn
What if I’d been by your side?
What if I’d noticed the signs?
What if we just don’t align?
All this what if, what if, what if, what if, what if, what if
Why, why, why, why why why, makes me BURN!
I don't think you meant to hurt me
'Cause I don't think it meant a thing at all!
Well, did it?
No, not at all
At all, at all, at all
Didn't mean a, didn't mean a
At all, at all, at all
Didn't mean a, didn't mean a
At all, at all to you
Na na na, na na, na
The motherfucker
Na na na, na na, na
The motherfucker
Na na na, na na, na
The motherfucker...
hits demetri with the caramelldansen beam
(the base I used is below the cut)
I've always had the headcanon that Miguel and Robby have the Cain and Abel instinct turned up to 11 until somebody tries something with either of them, then it's a temporary alliance to bully the mf who built up the stones to do that
Miguel : Robby you suck
Some random : yeah you suck!
Miguel : kys??? Who tf was talking to you??? I’ll kill you??? That’s my best friend ???? My literal brother????
I ain’t even know that girl had a name😭
my writer's intuition for the binary bros ending is currently defined by an unstoppable force (the maria storyline is leading to demetri going back to spain with her instead of MIT to show "growth") meeting an immovable object (demetri + eli are going to end up in the same place for the spin-off potential). i fear the promo hug can pretty easily slot into either of those scenarios.
SHADOW WIZARD MONEY GANG🗣️‼️ WE LOVE POLYAMORY👏🤑🔥🔥🔥🔥
anyway adrien marinette nino and alya all kiss each other
You see the vision 🤝

➤ Storming Dove: Storming Dove is Aurore's sentimonster, and it's replacing Stormy Weather. It's a large bird with brown feathers, some white feathers, and a spiked beak. This bird controls the weather and can speak, as most sentimonsters will in this AU. The name is a play on the Mourning Dove, which is a type of bird. I congratulated myself after coming up with that.
➤ Pigeon Lord: Another bird-based sentimonster because I was too proud of Storming Dove to change it. This sentimonster is analogous to Mr.Pigeon and he has the same powers. The difference is that he is shirtless, muscled, and has a pigeon head. Some of Pigeon Lord's pigeons have special abilities such as coating themselves in flames, sharp teeth, and super strength. Honestly, I feel like the writers of the show were simply having fun when they came up with Mr. Pigeon, so I'm gonna make this crazier.
➤ The Chronicle: The Chronicle is replacing The Evillustrator. It's a sentient floating sketchbook that can create anything it wants. It can create anything, but it can only exist 30 seconds. Didn't really want to make it too overpowered so that it's able to be defeated. Nathaniel helps defeat it by throwing water on it, since that's a weakness all books have.
➤ Bodybuilder: Kim's sentimonster, replacing Dark Cupid. I felt like this fit Kim more than Dark Cupid due to his athleticism. It looks a lot like a human but has steel skin, slick red hair, and a sleeve-less jumpsuit with Dark Cupid's color scheme. Obviously, it has super strength and super jumps. It can also release beams from it's eyes that have the same effect as Dark Cupid's arrows.
➤ Eyebrarian: Gabriel's sentimonster, replacing the Collector. This sentimonster was modeled after what Gabriel thinks of Natalie. It has three eyes and the third eye can emit light, causing whatever gets hit by it to disappear and become a drawing in a book that it holds. It has enhanced agility, making it hard to hit.
