would you change anything from toryās introduction in season two to now in season 6? like her as a character and her depth as a whole? like what things would you take out or include?
one thing iād like to mention is i wouldnāt have tory and sams rivalry to be about miguel. that was lazy and rushed. iād probably have it start for another reason and built up to the school fight.
Hi, thank you for asking! This is a tough question. As I mentioned before I personally have almost no problems with the writing in the first two seasons. The set-up for rivalry between Tory and Sam at that beach party was pretty well executed in my opinion. Sam and Miguel's kiss seemed to be only the last straw that was added to already existing tension. But I agree that love triangles are a tired and uninspiring tool to create a rivalry.
My main problem is with season 6 mostly. And the changes I would like for Tory as a character would also imply changing the whole showās trajectory. It means a lot has to change which I will not go into. But the short answer is: 1. I would like to see Tory actually interacting with her family and her mother specifically much earlier in the series. It would be cool to explore that part of Toryās life.Ā
2. I wish that ācheatingā drama with Robby never happened. Cobra Kai writers love their love triangles. But what they actually have showed wasn't even a love triangle. It was a whole other situation that they wonāt even acknowledge in the show itself.
3. I would like Tory to open up more and to have time for self-reflection. If she and Robby actually havenāt stopped interacting with each other in that gap between part 1 and 2 that would be great. I always find it weird how Cobra Kai and Miyagi-do students completely stop all communication the moment they join the opposing dojo. Even if they used to be best friends prior to the whole karate war. It is just unrealistic.
In general I would like to see Tory operate under less dire circumstances that way maybe changes in her personality could happen more naturally.
saw a clip on yt of tory at that restaurant place hanging out w aisha and moon. sorry but i wish they expanded on a friendship with them both.
as in tory + moon. we only got a few clips of friendship between aisha + tory but that wouldāve been so nice to see as well
honestly i start wishing i didnāt see anything cs writers dropped the ball on so many things in this damn show, it pisses me off everytime.
itās actually really funny to me that i was under the impression that we would definitely, absolutely get flashbacks from when tory left MD, and when she got to barcelona and what happened in the middle of all that.
and we just didnāt. idk why i had trust in those damn writers from the beginning
they canāt do SHIT right !
also made it a point to show us her grief and how she dealt with mothers death in part 1, only for her not to discuss at all and not even mention her mum in part 2.. just lovelyš¤
Words cannot express how much I HATED this scene:
The "I wish you could celebrate with us" it's not cute, it's not nice, it's not what the writers think they were doing for that friendship.
This was condescending as hell.
And my worst nightmare coming true, which was CK losing and Tory looking longingly at MD cause they are the heroes/saints and if she just chose the right side she could've been happy with them, but she chose wrong and now she has to suffer even more cause she didn't learn her lesson that MD is right and CK is wrong.
THAT'S UTTER BULLSHIT.
She shouldn't feel bad she chose CK when said MD gave zero fucks about her (for MONTHS apparently), gave her spot to Hawk like it was nothing and were then telling her they would've been there for her if she asked/went to them.
That girl was grieving and left your dojo in tears, I don't think she needed to FUCKING ASK for you to be there for her.
do you ever start writing a comment on the internet and then think āoh what the fuck am i going on aboutā and delete it
miyagi-do kids: I donāt why Tory doesnāt belive that weād be there for her or that we care about her, itās not like we didnāt go after her when she needed us most or something
meanwhile with John Kreese: you are ALONE, NONE of your friends care enough about you, this is WAR and everyone is your ENEMY!
if only kwon and tory met in a different timeline. cs kwon would have LOVED no mercy tory. her season 2 and season 3 absolute menace to society self.
still pissed tory didnāt have a friendship w him or yoon š, anyway , idc itās CANON to me that they were friends, sue me. gonna pretend like kwon didnāt dislike her, and yoon and toryās friendship wasnāt short lived ! :)
also canon, that theyāre a trio too.. (in my mind)
best ck trio w zero screentime ofcš
šš quick rant because a certain side of the Cobra Kai fandom will apparently never stop pissing me off and this is like the only place where I haven't seen anyone post shit like this
I NEED THESE PEOPLE TO GET A LIFE AND GET SERIOUS FAST.... in what world do they think that this is in any way entertaining or a cool thing to post. This kind of "humor" says a lot about a person's maturity, which in this case is nonexistent.
first of all, calling Peyton List (and generally judging other people for the way they look) a 5/10 is wild and objectively wrong... and even if she wasn't absolutely gorgeous I hope these people posting this shit never find love because Robby clearly didn't choose (not that there even was a choice to make) Tory for her looks. Zara's actress, Rayna Vallandingham, is also super beautiful and from what I've seen seems like a nice person who I'm glad got this opportunity to be in ck, but the character in itself is a jealous bitch and otherwise insufferable, and let's not forget the fact that she literally SA'd Robby. Plus before or after that they didn't spend any real time together... why the fuck would Robby choose her over the girl that he actually knows and loves????
secondly, Sam really doesn't look that different in season 6 than she did in the previous ones. And she certainly doesn't look any worse. If anything Mary Mouser looks even more beautiful now. Only childish people care this much about another person's weight. Calling her "Ham" wasn't funny when it first started, it's not funny now, just like none of the jokes regarding the way she looks are. There's seriously something wrong with these people and they're way too obsessive about bullying this girl who has done literally nothing to them because I can't see a single post about Sam/Mary without someone bullying her in the comments
It's okay to dislike a character but bringing the actor's looks into it is disgusting and immature. They are real people with real feelings!!!! I can't believe that people can actually write that shit about someone else and feel good about themselves afterwards
These people are literally driving me insane, this is like the third post in a span of a few weeks that I've made about this topic.... can they fucking grow up and realize their "jokes" aren't funny in the slightest

when you go to leave kudos on a fic but the āyouāve already left kudos here :)ā message comes up and you donāt remember reading the fic:
john kreese will see a blonde teenager with an absent father and anger issues and say is anyone gonna manipulate and abuse that. then not wait for an answer.
Looks like weāre in the same boat.
[PART II]
Tory Nichols | 6.10
Thanks to you for starting the fight.
And you for finishing it.
[PART I]
i remember seeing this lil clip from inside the dojo on netflix. wonder whats happening in it. possibly scene from part 3 iām guessing cs obviously this wasnāt shown in part 2.
perhaps training (?)
Robby won't let his girlfriend's slander slide & Tory won't let her boyfriend's slander slide.
Seeing too many people shitting on Tory for something bad that happens to their favorite character ("Robby had it bad but it's always poor Tory!" "People are hating on Sam, why aren't they hating on Tory!" "There aren't consequences for her actions!" *cough on probation, criminal record, her trophy taken away, cough* where're Hawk's consequences btw).
You don't HAVE TO drag a female character just to complain about fans/writers being shitty to another character. It's not a requirement. You can always not do that.
FELIX MALLARD & ANTONIA GENTRY in season 2 episode 2 of ginny and georgia
school spirits was so funny for doing a plot in one episode about how mad two of maddies friends were that she didn't tell them simon could see her & having it be resolved w maddie saying "i'm sorry i kept it a secret, i'll never do it again & i'll tell all the other ghosts right away" only for the ghosts to be like "well, hang on a minute. i know we were pissed you kept it from us, but maybe lying really is the answer here. just don't do it to me"
Robby Keene and Tory Nicols
Cobra kai
Season 5
Episode 10
well.. lmao i love this image. johnny is there for everyone elseās child but not his own flesh and blood.
after six seasons, johnny lawrence still the worst fuckin father ever. jesus christ. just tragic.
The reason not so many people ship keenry is because we've seen so little of them.
After the prom all we've seen them do is stare at each other, miscommunicate and fight beside each other.
I get this is an action packed show, but a scene of them just doing normal boyfriend - girlfriend stuff, confiding in each other about their trauma, would go a long way.
It's not just about feeding the fans, is about selling your idea in the first place
literally so obsessed with the entire aquarium sequence. the tory and robby scene + devon and tory means so much to me.
āweāre keeping toryās brother in the background to focus on more important thingsā the important things being the shitty johnny and daniel rivalry thatās been dragging on for six seasons straight
tory really watched her mum die in front of her, few months/ weeks later her teammate died in front of her???
GIVE HER A BREAK!
atp she needs a damn blunt cs wtf !!
school spirits season 2 when ??? i need my maddie nears back to me with immediate effect š
went through the hashtag and thereās barely a fandom on here?? show needs more recognition, like amazing story, amazing actors COME ONNN.
