Daniel really did meet his match with Chozen

 Chozen was always kicking Daniel's butt in Karate Kid 2.

I wonder who would win if Chozen faced off against Johnny.

I thought Daniel had learned how to block a punch

 

Karate Kid 2 fight scene photos

This fight scene was a little of a disappointment I always thought.

I guess everything can't be the All Valley.

This was the 80's

Sensei Kreese throwing a kick

Well this is interesting. A photo taken during filming of the parking lot scene in Karate Kid 2 shows Sensei Kresse throwing a kick at Mr. Miyagi.

As we know it did not make it into the film, maybe the kick looked awkward in those tight jeans.

Training in Okinawa

Daniel, why the jeans? Are you cold?

You are in Okinawa, put on a pair of shorts for heaven's sake.

Cutest couple ever

 

The more and more I think about it the more upset I get that Daniel and Kumiko didn't stay together for Karate Kid 3.

 

I mean, look at these two! They look great together, they are a perfect couple.

 

They look much better together than Daniel and Ali did, or Daniel and that girl from KK 3. (I don't even remember the girl's name she was so un-memorable.)

 

I almost get teary-eyed when I think about these two together. An opportunity wasted for sure sadly.



What might have been

 

I wish these two stayed together, they could have made a much more interesting Karate Kid 3 by bringing Kumiko over to the US.

Is it just me or does Johnny's head look like it is detatched from his body? Also, notice Johnny's jacket, it is not the same one he wore in Karate Kid 1. The original jacket didn't have black trim.
