There’s a perfectly heterosexual explanation for this I swear…
Mr. Miyagi crying “land of free, home of brave, but doctor no come” will never not haunt me
Something something about how in trying so hard to replicate Mr. Miyagi Daniel actually became the antithesis of everything Mr. Miyagi stood for
“I could fix him” “I could make him worse” well I could form a predatory homoerotic mentorship with his protégé’s teenage karate rival as an act of psychological warfare for him
“I cant talk right now im doing hot girl shit”
*cries over a karate sopa opera*
Kreese, when the ck writers decide to give him a redemption arc in s6
still not over the fact that in the very little time robby and johnny spent together when he was a kid, johnny still managed to impress upon robby just how much he hated daniel larusso. like all i can imagine is johnny drunk off his ass and ranting about his homoerotic high school karate rival everytime a larusso autos commercial comes on, and 4 year-old robby is just sitting there like 👁👄👁
every interaction between Johnny and Robby in S3 be like:
“my child is completely fine” your child is obsessed with a karate soap opera because of the vulnerable discussions of childhood trauma and the strong thematic emphasis on found families
how that one specific part of the fandom sounds talking about johnny 👀👀👀
robby has anger issues because in 2010 he had a bowl cut and hes never recovered from the trauma
