When I was playing the ching chong level in Gex: Enter the Gecko I kept getting the strongest flashback of this show, but all I could remember was elements of this intro and that in one of the episodes Daniel takes the girl to the fair and she gets chili on her chin from a chili dog, and he has a flashback to when he took another girl to the fair and the same thing happened.

Vulcan nerve pinch followed by a playful tweak of the nose. Surely, Pat Morita's potential is truly realized in animation.

Well, of course they're going to blow up your battleship if you paint a target on it.
The best part of this show was the incredibly contrived ways the magic pagoda escaped their grasp at the end of each episode. One time a whale swallowed it.

That's an awful lot of thumbs up signs.
Also: KARATE KID (doo-doo-de-doo-doo-doo-de-doot-doot!)
Was this one of those CBS one-season wonders?

eatenmyeyes NBC. I think it came in the same batch as Saved by the Bell and Captain N.

Mr Miyagi swinging like Tarzan. A small 87 Chevy Nova capable of flight. Daniel-san surfing a nuclear torpedo.

I like the little dance Daniel did on the torpedo.

Mock all you want, I know what I was expecting from the phrase "Karate Kid: The Animated Series," but that shit looks TIGHT.
Especially compared to other knee-jerk licenses and the animation quality of, say, anything to come out of Ruby Spears.

What is the sick fascination with world travel that all these shows have?

I love the completely unnecessary flip at :25. And that I remembered the theme music note for note.

Man, all this shit happened between Daniel going to Okinawa and coming back to the US? That's crazy.

I have never seen any Karate Kid movies, but I have seen this intro to the cartoon at least once. The "Karate Kid!" repetition is the only thing I know about Karate Kid, besides something about cobras and waxing cars.
-1 for my troubled, un-Karate Kid'd past. +4 for...well, I dunno.
