I stopped this when the kid fell, should I pick it back up?

I'm kind of backlogged. The two new marvel movies, Hawkeye, Bebop, Witcher starts next week...

Absolutely. It's still a very fun series with the perfect blend of 80's campiness in today's world.

Season 4 is out now. 10 episodes.

[Akiyama]

Just binged the entire season

It was so fucking good.

Didn't like all aspects, namely the kids still being kids and thus immune to the lessons they have learned several times at this point, but still a great season. Training montage in episode 5 was probably the best one I've ever seen, scooter part had me cheering.

I enjoyed it, especially the last couple of episodes. They're quickly running into the "CW" problem though where these "kids" are now looking like grown ass adults acting as teenagers. I can suspend my disbelief while watching it, just humorous though.

[Tomiko]

Really enjoyed the season. Some issues as mentioned above, but just minor complaints.

Overall thoughts:

Spoiler: show

Really excited to see what happens next season with the leadership changes. I wonder if he'll bring in Barnes (guy Daniel beat in KK3).

I was hoping for a bit more with the Tory-Sam thing. Just something like Tory trying to talk to her (again) afterwards. I like seeing Robby and Tory realizing how they've been acting and now on the verge of their redemption arcs.

I'm a bit glad Kenny finally beat up iPad LaRusso. I haven't cared for his character the entire time. But this will probably be the new feud now that Tory-Sam is wrapping up. If so, I don't want to see him "win" when he started the shit with Kenny.

I like the new girl recruits, esp debate girl. (I'm terrible with the new names lol)

The Carrie Underwood thing was weird. I was really hoping for a Julie (Next Karate Kid) cameo though.

I don't really care for the high school kids acting and behaving as college kids thing.. prom ep was giving major paedo vibes and threw off the feel of the series.
When are they gonna get better choreography for the fights and training? It's weird because i don't know if it's on purpose or just a lack of care.

I thought the action was pretty solid, and the prom bit felt very like.. 11th/12th grade prom-ish to me. But yeah, the growth spurts from S1 to now are pretty wild, Haha.

Life goals: to be so successful that I can put work aside to focus on my karate rivalries.

priorities are important

One thing irked me is that none of these schools have any kind of ranking? wtf. I see white belts on everyone then black belts of everyone then they have someone who is training for years fight agains somone who trained for a few months in the tornament? WTF is this lol. I know who the show is targeted towards and it really doesnt matter but it just irked me being in tornaments myself when I was younger.

[Rhyis.]

i never noticed until robby started teaching classes in a white belt, at which point yeah that just looks wrong

[Delayed]

I think the white to black belt thing is a deliberate throw back to the movie. Couldn't compete unless you were a black belt...
But the timing is thrown off, i don't think very much time has gone on at all...a year at most?

It bothers me too. Mostly because I know how difficult it is to get a black belt. And some of these kids can barely punch and kick correctly

The new girl trained for a few months, she even said that after losing. She def cant have a black belt lol. Yet they matched her up against somone whos been training for years?

Didnt hate the show just nit picking.
