“Cobra Kai” is coming to an end, and this month, the Season 6 Part 3 episodes will be dropping on Netflix on February 13. Ahead of that, the streaming giant has unleashed a final trailer (see below) highlighting that last batch of stories within the heightened and rich universe of martial arts schools.
First launched in 1984 with the original “Karate Kid,” the franchise has seen its setting move from California to Okinawa, China, and New York City. The streaming series is spun off those movies and focuses on a group of kids seeking martial arts mentors, some good and some straight-up bullies. There is still also conflict between returning characters Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) and Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka).

Despite the series endings, this won’t be the end of the “Karate Kid” universe as a crossover film, “Karate Kid: Legends,” is set to be released on May 30 by Sony Pictures. That film will see Jackie Chan, Ben Wang, and longtime franchise star Macchio in the leading roles.
