Johnny Lawrence may have come a long way in Cobra Kai, but he is just as much a jerk as he was in Karate Kid - and that's precisely how he should be.
Cobra Kai brought back the Karate Kid antagonist, Johnny Lawrence, and turned him into the series lead—but going into the sixth and final season, his character still hasn't been redeemed of his past misdeeds. Back in the days that he and Daniel LaRusso were in high school, Johnny could be an outright jerk, and his violence could have done major damage if it wasn't for Mr. Miyagi.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Redemption has been the theme of Cobra Kai, and over its five seasons, several old bad guys have come back to make amends. The likes of Chozen Toguchi and Mike Barnes proved that they were entirely different people than they were back in the days of the Karate Kid movies. The same can be said about Johnny in some ways, but overall, Daniel's old rival is still the same as he always has been.
That isn't to say that Johnny hasn't grown throughout Cobra Kai. In season 1, he drank too much, didn't take the time to be there for his son, and didn't hold back from bullying strangers. Going into season 6, Johnny is a successful business owner, has control of his temper, and is ready to be a father to his new baby and Robby and Miguel.
Why Cobra Kai Was Right To Make Johnny An Anti-Hero The Karate Kid movies established Daniel as the "good" kid and Johnny as the villain. Mr. Miyagi was the moral sensei who always had the right answer with his abundance of wisdom, and John Kreese was nothing but a bully. However, Cobra Kai turned this upside down by repeating the Karate Kid formula but placed Johnny in the position of the wise sensei.
The character that changed the most in Cobra Kai was really Daniel LaRusso. Johnny is just as much a jerk as he ever was, but Daniel's perspective of him has changed. Daniel, much like the audience, has become increasingly aware of Johnny's desire to protect others, and to help the next generation. His approach may sometimes be questionable, but Daniel has seen how good things can come from Johnny's intentions, and has also seen how much he has grown over the years.
