As Netflix unveiled the trailer for the first part of Cobra Kai‘s final season, fans are bracing for an unparalleled ride. Slated to start streaming on July 18, the upcoming episodes promise intense drama and nostalgia. The sixth and concluding season will be segmented into two parts, with the second batch dropping on November 28, 2024.
The Journey to Sekai Taikai
The storyline pivots as Cobra Kai dojo meets its demise in the Valley, clearing the path for the grand stage of karate’s world championships—Sekai Taikai. Returning sensei Johnny Lawrence, played by William Zabka, rallies his students for this ambitious venture.

The creators Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, and Hayden Schlossberg steer this final season under their production company Counterbalance Entertainment. Executive producers also include Hollywood heavyweights Will Smith and James Lassiter, ensuring that each episode maintains top-tier storytelling.
