Johnny has our favourite redemption story of the series, showing that even though he doesn't always get it right (maybe an understatement), his heart is really in the right place. We know that in previous seasons, Johnny goes from a round-the-clock hater of Daniel's success, to teaching Miguel and starting Cobra Kai, to eventually losing his dojo to Kreese and his evil ways. Season three sees a new Johnny: one who has learned from his past mistakes, and is seeing that Kreese's merciless mentality only causes inner turmoil in the long run.
At the start of season three, Johnny is feeling sorry for himself and turning to lots of beer, desperately trying to see coma-stricken Miguel at the hospital. As he tries to help Miguel wake up from the coma and eventually teach him how to walk again through unconventional tactics (fire, questionable magazines, and a Twisted Sister concert), even stealing a statue to fund his surgery, Johnny also tries to rebuild his relationship with his son Robby, which is still rocky to say the least.
This character fully evolves throughout the season, getting closer to Daniel and understanding his perspective, and seeing how similar their mentalities are as they go on missions to find Robby and defeat Kreese. He starts his own dojo, Eagle Fang, joining forces with Daniel and Miyagi-Do, and continues to change, even finding possible love with Miguel's mom Carmen and his old flame Ali (learning how to use Facebook along the way). Although Johnny still can't recover his relationship with son Robby by the end of the season (knocking him out at Cobra Kai probably won't help) it's safe to say Johnny ends up on the good side after all, fully rejecting Kreese's way of life.
