Cobra Kai: Why Chozen Is Terry Silver's Real Season 5 Enemy
Warning: SPOILERS for Cobra Kai Season 4.
InCobra Kai season 5, it could be Chozen Toguchi (Yuji Okumoto) who poses the biggest threat to Terry Silver's (Thomas Ian Griffith) plan to takeover karate in the San Fernando Valley. Silver ended Cobra Kai season 4 with the total victory that eluded him in The Karate Kid Part III: Not only did Cobra Kai win the All Valley Grand Championship, with Tory Nichols (Peyton List) become the first-ever girls' All Valley Champion (thanks to Terry bribing the ref), but Silver framed John Kreese (Martin Kove) for attempted murder so that the ponytailed mastermind now completely controls Cobra Kai. In retaliation, Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) asked Chozen to come to America and join his fight against Terry Silver's Cobra Kai.
Chozen and Terry Silver were LaRusso's enemies inThe Karate Kid Part II and Part III, respectively. Chozen hated Daniel-san on sight when he and Mr. Miyagi (Noriyuki «Pat» Morita) visited Okinawa in 1985, but Chozen was also taught Miyagi-Do karate by his rich uncle, Sato Toguchi (Danny Kamakona). Yet Sato moved past his lifelong grudge with Mr. Miyagi while Chozen lost his honor when he challenged Daniel to a fight to the death and lost. When LaRusso and Miyagi returned to the United States, Terry Silver was waiting for them. At the behest of Kreese, his old Vietnam war buddy, the cocaine-addicted millionaire exacted an insane scheme inThe Karate Kid Part III to force Daniel to defend his All Valley championship. LaRusso ultimately beat Cobra Kai once again and Silver's dreams of taking control of karate in the Valley went up in smoke — until he finally won 34 years later in Cobra Kai season 4.
