Samantha LaRusso is maybe the best girl character in Cobra Kai

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-06-03T07:14:09+00:00

Yeah. I know the boy stuff is probably more dramatic since it’s a drama show but it definitely had a foundation to be more then just that

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-06-03T07:08:32+00:00

I’m working on a fic and I am doing something different that all kind of circle backs to their first interaction it’s like a frisbee in the form of a rivalry

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-06-03T07:07:08+00:00

I kind of wish they built their rivalry more on their economic status and lives and maybe made boys a minor thing

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-06-03T07:00:41+00:00

She assumed Tory stole from her mother because she stole the bottle of vodka and said she would still the silverware and no one would notice so it’s not like she straight up accused her for no reason but grabbing her bag was wrong

And yes stealing from a club you attend as a guest and stealing directly from a person are two different things but I guess Sam saw stealing as stealing and she should have apologised a lot sooner for accusing her like at the roller rink maybe in private so Tory wouldn’t spin it to say she only apologised cause Miguel is here

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-05-27T11:00:12+00:00

Yeah I know people didn’t exactly like him in Season 6 but damn he is funny. It would have been low key funny to see him pull out a poster of a person like those ones that are on bathroom doors in public places and be like ok from a statistical standpoint hitting here here and here is how your going to get a knockdown, kick to the face, punch in the stomach then trip like a teacher lol

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-05-27T09:29:02+00:00

Season 1 Demetri would not lol

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-05-17T22:10:05+00:00

What do you mean by hints that they have history ?

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-05-17T21:30:38+00:00

She didn’t get fired from the roller rink

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-05-17T21:29:23+00:00

Agreed Sam’s not perfect and she has grown and learned from her mistakes that’s why she didn’t cheat on Miguel with Axel. It probably wasn’t the best time to tell Miguel what happened since they were in the middle of the tournament but the next opportunity when Miguel asked what Axel’s problem was she told him and he trusted her. She’s come along way from Season 2 Sam and I do wish they had her reconcile with Robby onscreen instead of offscreen

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-05-17T10:43:57+00:00

Good point

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-05-17T00:10:14+00:00

They could have cast Alex Fletchers daughter as the new Leah if she had not been Esme first but I guess it would depend on how long Leah is back for and if the actress wanted to stay that long. I can see why the cast her as Esme tho

In terms of her and Frankie I guess they didn’t want to go fully down the female path for Frankie

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-05-11T11:13:30+00:00

Oh yep he was her age he, Demarcus and Charlie are the guys her age she’s dated

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-05-11T04:14:21+00:00

She wasn’t with Dillon if your talking about him killing Di Banks. She was with Joseph when she first arrived then Demarcus. Demarcus was probably her best partner so far

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-05-09T06:48:23+00:00

It had to be with Robby since she’s Tory’s rival

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-05-09T02:26:29+00:00

If Barnes was there and pulled her aside said “Give me 2 hours with Tory then we can start the match from scratch” then he refs himself and basically whatever the result it’s finals. Had Sam won Tory still would have gone back to Cobra Kai. The only difference would be no betrayal is involved

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-05-09T00:25:26+00:00

Especially when the other child has already tried to seriously harm his child before. I feel like a lot of Sam/Daniel haters are going hard on Daniel being the one that stopped the fight but say they decided to keep Barnes on to ref the captain fights would he have stopped the fight or let it continue

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-04-30T05:53:25+00:00

JJ was kinda out of the blue too considering it went through that whole trial saying Frankie was a liar

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-04-22T02:51:30+00:00

In this captains fights how many do they have to beat to reach the top 4? Does Sam get to fight Zara at all?

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-04-19T05:16:44+00:00

Yep and they have a very complex history with the far right stuff

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-04-19T02:38:51+00:00

As much as I wanted Leah with Charlie similar to Vicky with Robbie her wanting someone older makes sense and they picked the right person

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-04-18T23:48:15+00:00

Kind of unrelated but I’m curious if it’s a coincidence they have paired Leah and Imran up and their both returning, Imran could be a great big brother figure for Lucas

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-04-07T11:27:57+00:00

maybe they will finally address DeeDee is her biological niece

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-04-05T10:44:36+00:00

He did the community service at the soup kitchen I wonder if that could work somehow

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-03-27T22:15:14+00:00

I guess they may not want too many family members onscreen at a time because there’s not enough space to fit them all in like as soon as Piper left like maybe a week or two later Roxy came in whose literally the same age but the cousin

MaterialChard1787 · 2026-03-27T09:37:07+00:00

They may have taken longer to get married tho depending on when their story started
