Cobra Kai Fans Aren't Happy This Character Isn't Coming Back

Rating: 4.3; Vote: 3

Cobra Kai about to drop its third season, and there are a ton of storylines carrying over not just from last season's finale, but also from the first season's too. But while most of the members of the Cobra Kai dojo are returning for season 3, there's one character who will be absent: Aisha Robinson, played by Nichole Brown, Sam LaRusso's friend who joins the Cobra Kai dojo to escape being bullied. To get it out of the way: No, Aisha isn't the first character on Cobra Kai to vanish for an entire season. Characters like Kyler, Yasmine, and Daniel LaRusso's cousin Louie all disappeared after season 1. However, in all three cases, those characters are coming back for Cobra Kai season 3. There's a chance Aisha will return to Cobra Kai sometime in the future, but right now, fans are unhappy at the fact that she won't be in the new season of their favorite show. Cobra Kai is a show whose success is rooted in its audience's acceptance that a high school could suddenly break out into a martial arts war. The second season of Cobra Kai concludes with just that: The students of Miyagi-Do Karate and the students of Cobra Kai have an all-out brawl. Sam fights Tory, Hawk fights Demetri, and Robby knocks Miguel down a flight of steps. Aisha had already separated herself from these kinds of shenanigans before the dojo-versus-dojo battle broke out, and she's gone from the Cobra Kai dojo once John Kreese takes over. Effectively, Aisha seems a little too mature to keep getting involved with a generations-long battle between rival dojos. As it happens, that's exactly why fans are so bummed that Aisha isn't coming back for season 3 she simply seems more like a mature human being than the rest of the teens (and adults) around her. On Reddit, one Cobra Kai fan wrote, Just finished Cobra Kai and found out Aisha's character isn't going to be in season 3. Aisha was honestly the best character in the show and especially the best female character. She was the only two dimensional female character, she struggled with self esteem issues in season one and became a good fighter and stood up for herself. There are, effectively, only two other lead teenage female characters on Cobra Kai: Sam and Tory. Though both characters do have their own separate arcs, the ongoing conflict between the two young women is over Miguel. In other words, a lot of Sam and Tory's stories boil down to fighting over a boy. Aisha's story is more about where she fits in this conflict between her friends and the two dojos, and many fans wanted to see where her narrative would go in season 3. Sadly, that's not going to happen. On the flip side, not everyone was surprised to see Aisha depart. Another Reddit user wrote, I love Aisha, but you could kind of see it coming. Her character got pushed into the background more and more. She didn't even really have a substantial plotline in season 2 like the other characters did. That same Redditor also asked another interesting question: Also did anyone notice Aisha didn't have a Miyagi-Do counterpart? Maybe that had to do with it the decision not to bring her back in season 3. It seems that the reality of the situation is this: There are an awful lot of conflicts to resolve in Cobra Kai season 3, and without already having a specific ongoing plot to deal with, Aisha could be seen as temporarily unnecessary. In fact, her mature presence could even hasten conflict resolution. Additionally, since Netflix has already greenlit Cobra Kai is for a fourth season, it's unlikely that every problem from season 2 will be resolved by the end of season 3. Still, unless something changes, Aisha's absence also means the absence of any recurring Black female characters on Cobra Kai. In an interview with TVLine, Cobra Kai co-executive producers and co-showrunners Jon Hurwitz and Josh Heald addressed Aisha's absence from the show's upcoming third season both signaling that she likely won't be gone forever. Hurwitz said, Certain characters we loved in season 1 didn't appear at all in season 2, like Kyler, Yasmine and Louie. Before the season, we told Nichole the same thing we told those actors that just because a character doesn't appear for a period of time doesn't mean they've left the universe, that they can't return again. We love that character, and perhaps we'll see her again one day. Heald then added, We have a long story left to tell. We tend to look at the show in a very long view, where entrances and exits are impactful and important. Sometimes people need to exit to make their [re-entry] a little bit different and bigger. It seems likely fans will continue talking about Aisha's absence from Cobra Kai season 3 in the coming months. Whether or not that talk will yield Aisha's return for season 4 is anyone's guess.

A lot of people didn't like Sam's and Demetri's character, but for me it's Aisha. I know she was bullied, and I would have liked her, but her character is just annoying, she gets mad for no reason. I can see why the writers couldn't think on how to continue her story, because she already reached her goal. She became tough and more confident, but also more agressive, I'm not saying that other characters that were in Cobra Kai didn't become agressive, I just didn't like the way she portrayed her character.

I m a fan and I m not mad but I will say that I enjoyed Aisha. She was an overweight nerd with a secret strength and as someone just like her I clicked with her character. Not only that she was a founding member of Cobra Kai and I was sad that they sidelined her story to pursue other stories like Tori s and Hawks. It s gonna be sad for her not to be there and of course I ll miss her but the show will go on

I think she could of been done really well still and have some good parts. Im not Mad that shes gone, just disappointed. While the story is yes about Johnny, the spirit of Karate Kid and Cobra Kai was about teaching lessons, not just to the kids in the show but to the viewer. They could of gotten some pretty good story short story stuff out of her still. But oh well

Only reoccurring black female on Cobra Kai.
Seriously? She has lighter skin than me. This is not an important part of her description as a character or person. Why highlight and include it?
I applaud the creators for writing her out of the show for being uninteresting and poorly acted, instead of keeping her in for the sake of inclusion.

I could care less. Her character was so cringy every time she delivered her lines or acted tough. She must of been some famous person's kid to have gotten that role. Dropping her from the show wouldn't make a difference and doesn't interrupt the story line. Hopefully she doesn't make a return

im glad she is out and hope she never comes back. Also dont want to see vids like this again. only 1 or 2 people want her to stay in the show. more people dont care that she is gone so vids should only be about what most people want. tired of catering towards the few and the negative

Whose not happy? She's not what makes the show. While I don't dislike her character, she's not amazing either. Her and Sam could be argued as the weakest characters. Tori is the best female character. She has more depth. Of course I hope she comes back in a later season.

I just hope they don't break out in to song and dance secnes and there is a nice balance between the old story and new. Not really here for the kids but love the stuff between LaRusso and Lawrence. I think they could have carried this show on their own but I get new fans.

alisha is good character and i will miss her, but i d rather have a consice cast with characters that actually need the writing and screen time, rather than cramming in a bunch of half baked characters just for the sake of it
reply

Juanpi
Yeah I don't care. She was good in S1 but there are a lot of characters with more important stories than her's. For example Dimitri, he wasn't very important in S1 but he stepped up in S2 and they can continue his story
