The end is near, "Cobra Kai" fans: yes, that means the end of waiting for new episodes to appear - the martial arts-focused Netflix hit is set to return to the streamer on Thursday, July 18, but also the series itself It's also the end. Say goodbye to Daniel Larusso (Ralph Macchio), Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka), and the dojo fighters as the blockbuster's sixth and final season comes to a close.

And "Cobra Kai" viewers can now get a sneak peek at the first part of that farewell thanks to an official new trailer released by Netflix on Monday, July 1. 3]

"We've been through a lot to get here, but we're finally on the same page," says Daniel, who plays Makio, at the beginning of the two-minute video.

"We may have hit our stride in the Valley, but now we have to be ready for whatever the world throws at us."

And that means the world karate tournament, aka "Sekai Taikai," where the students will fight "the best opponents in the world." Johnny seems to use some rather unorthodox training methods to prepare the karate practitioners, such as throwing beer bottles at them to test their speed and balance. 'Our strength is that we teach both styles equally. Don't lose that balance," he reminds his former rivals.

The trailer also gives longtime fans of the Miyagi series an update on the two original characters in the Karate Kid film franchise. First, John Cleese (Martin Cove) returns. He is now a Shihan at a rival dojo. We last saw this antagonist at the end of "Cobra Kai" Season 5, when he cleverly faked his own death using melted jelly and escaped from prison wearing a doctor's outfit and a security badge stolen from a social worker. In the trailer, Cleese tells his students that "only through pain does a champion reveal himself," and it is clear that he is ready to throw it all out on the mat in the dojo.

The new footage also features a surprising cameo: Mr. Miyagi (played by Pat Morita in the original "Karate Kid" film). But Daniel and Chozen Toguchi (Yuji Okumoto) discover a box from their former mentor, hidden under Miyagi Michi's floor. There is a reason why Miyagi-San buried the secret." When we open it, anything is possible." One of Netflix's biggest shows, "Cobra Kai," will conclude on July 18 with the first part of Season 6. Part 2 will follow on November 28, with the final five parts to be announced in 2025, making it the first three-part series on Netflix.
