Under injuries that would put a lesser teenager down and out, Daniel returns to the mat and dances around on his injured leg to get two points on Johnny before the [[ArrogantKungFuGuy Cobra Kai]] gets one on him.

Added Awesome entry.
Added DiffLines:
* The scene where Miyagi beats up Daniel's bullies when they were about to really injure him in a potentially permanent or even fatal way. He makes quick work out of younger, trained karate students like the OldMaster that he was!
* The scene where Miyagi demonstrates the usefulness of WaxOnWaxOff. The expression of confusion on Daniel's face slowly transitioning first to shock then to enlightened awe as Miyagi throws blow after blow at him and he defends himself without even realizing he's doing it tells the entire story.
* Ali [[TheDogBitesBack punching Johnny]] for forcibly kissing her to spite a nearby Danny does feel a bit cathartic, considering the wedge it nearly puts the couple through.
* The "You're the Best" sequence, where Daniel shows everyone, especially the Cobra Kais, that the former punching bag is now kicking ass.
* The final fight scene. Under injuries that would put a lesser teenager down and out, Daniel returns to the mat and dances around on his injured leg to get two points on Johnny before the [[ArrogantKungFuGuy Cobra Kai]] gets one on him. Then, even after Johnny has viciously targeted his previous knee injury, he remains in the fight. And when Daniel executes a perfect Crane Kick and wins the tournament, it is one of the most triumphant moments in 80s film. Even the MemeticMutation that has rendered it comical can't diminish its awesomeness.
* Even though Ralph Macchio himself has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rt49zJwOJtE disclaimed]] and confirmed what many fans believe--the Crane Kick is an AwesomeButImpractical move that would never work in a real-life fight--Lyoto Machida showed that it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTiJ7A1DLV0 was more realistic]] [[RealityIsUnrealistic than you'd think]] if it's done [[BoringButPractical quickly and with feints]] against even one of the great MMA and UFC legends, Randy Couture. So as long as you don't ''telegraph'' the move and/or the opponent doesn't see it coming, you're good to go.
* The scene where Miyagi demonstrates the usefulness of WaxOnWaxOff. The expression of confusion on Daniel's face slowly transitioning first to shock then to enlightened awe as Miyagi throws blow after blow at him and he defends himself without even realizing he's doing it tells the entire story.
* Ali [[TheDogBitesBack punching Johnny]] for forcibly kissing her to spite a nearby Danny does feel a bit cathartic, considering the wedge it nearly puts the couple through.
