The Karate Kid pt.II (1986) dir. John G. Avildsen

[kathrahender]

People seriously need to know and understand the difference between "people-who-don't-like-each-other-at-first to lovers" "rivals to lovers" and "enemies to lovers" because they're not the same at all.

People-who-don't-like-each-other-at-first to lovers is exactly that. People who don't get along too well who eventually become lovers. There's not a rivalry between them, much less hostility (like in the enemies-to-lovers). If you like ships where the two characters disagree on some things (and that's all the tension they have) or "A" character of them flirts with the "B" character, and "B" ignores "A" or gets annoyed- until they fall in love- you don't like rivals-to-lovers nor enemies-to-lovers. You like this trope and this is nothing like the other two.

Rivals-to-lovers is the trope where two characters are rivals. They don't like each other, and both of the characters, "A" and "B", probably want to show they're the best at something. They probably hate each other, but they're not actively hurting each other because yes. And they also don't have the same hostility enemies have. They compete with each other, sure, but most of the times they don't act like enemies would. If you like ships where the two characters have tension and they don't like each other, but not enough to kill them, hurt them, or something like that, then the trope you like is rivals-to-lovers. Not enemies-to-lovers.

And finally, enemies-to-lovers. An enemy is a person who is actively opposed or hostile to someone or something. Therefore, the two characters are probably in opposite sides, in a war or something similar. They hate each other, they want to see the other hurt, and they probably want to hurt the other themselves. They want to make them suffer because they're not in the same side, and they don't think the same. They don't have the same morality, that's why they fight against each other. But sometimes, their hostility can turn into something else. Something that makes them be lovers. So if you like ships where two enemies, who actively hate each other and try to kill each other, become lovers, you like enemies-to-lovers.

To put examples:

"People-who-don't-like-each-other to lovers" ships: Hanleia. Jilly. Yes, people. They're not rivals nor enemies. So stop saying the ship is enemies-to-lovers because that's not true.

"Rivals-to-lovers" ships: Klance, Jeith/Jaith, Icemav, Lawrusso (I mentioned fanon ships because now I can't remember canon rivals-to-lovers ships). They surely don't like each other (some of them just at the beginning, because later they became friends) but they don't hate each other like an enemy would.

"Enemies-to-lovers" ships: Darklina, Reylo, Kalluzeb, Catradora. These are enemies-to-lovers ships because they were in opposite sides. And they actively hurt them, not in a "Let's see who's the best" way but in a "I want to will you" way. So yeah- they're enemies, not rivals or something else. These ships are actual enemies to lovers ships.

Daniel singing and dancing in the bathrobe. Reblog if you agree

[jtophat]

Sometimes I’ll obsess over a fic and then check and see that it really never got that popular. Like, it may not even have twenty kudos on it or something. And it’s so surprising because it’s so good and I spend so long thinking about where the story may be going or hoping that it updates again soon and it means so much to me

So if you ever write a fic and it doesn’t get many kudos or comments just know that there is a very real chance that it still has managed to take over my life and every time I see that it updated my day automatically gets better and I appreciate you so much for that

[chicken-wayng]

So they already incorporated The Karate Kid movies 1-3.

[daydreams-and-honeybees]

Thinking about my favorite type of character: repressed teen girl whose pure unfiltered rage could level an entire fucking city and was maybe called ‘overemotional’ or ‘annoying’ at some point

I loved my friend. He went away from me. There's nothing more to say. The poem ends, Soft as it began,— I loved my friend.

Ralph Macchio as Daniel Larusso THE KARATE KID TRILOGY (1984-1989) COBRA KAI (2018)

+ Poem by Langston Hughes

[cinemabuffoon]

Every time I remember that Ralph Macchio was 22-27 when filming the karate kid trilogy i feel like I'm being gaslit

[redsamuraiii]

M R M I Y A G I - A Karate Kid Prequel

One week to the season finale of Cobra Kai and I happened to listen to a song by Fort Minor called Kenji, which is about Japanese-American living in an internment camp during World War 2 and how many like him overcame adversity and survived the war.

It got me reminded of Mr Miyagi who served in the 442nd Regiment in Europe to fight the NAZI. In The Next Karate Kid (1994), he was shown going to Arlington National Cemetery for a commendation for Japanese-Americans who fought in the 442nd.

I thought it would be great if they could do a prequel story of a younger Miyagi, with Yukie, Sato and his wife he met in America, who later died during child birth, and what he went through from the time he went to war in Europe to the time where he first met Daniel.

Poor Miyagi got his heart broken throughout the trilogy.

Part I, he remembers his wife and unborn child who died in internment camp while he was at war in Europe.

Part 2, he remembers his first love, Yukie and his father, whom he felt he had wronged for leaving them behind.

Part 3, he remembers the good boy, Daniel whom he’s afraid of losing (to Terry), after all he had lost in his lifetime.

Miyagi to me, is the true hero of the franchise. 

How often do we meet someone who had gone through so much pain, loss and suffering, being betrayed, discriminated and belittled but faced them with grace, patience and dignity?

He did not let his tragic past turn him into a bitter and angry person that blames the world, wallowing in self-pity. He rise above the storm becoming a better person and helping others.
