so, I had a bit of insomnia last night and binge the second half of season 1. Were we supposed to care who won that final match? One character they had turned a little bit into a jerk and the other character literally had no character whatsoever... just seemed like a Jonathan Brandeis wannabe, with no arc or anything interesting about him. I get that they were... I guess... proxies for Johnny and Daniel, but if Daniel was self-aware at all, wouldn't he see how many disastrous things happened to Johnny because of him since the show began? His daughter was involved in a hit and run on Johnny's car, he then got Johnny's rent doubled for no reason, his cousin then attacked Johnny and blew up his car and as far as Johnny knew, from all appearances, Daniel was teaching his son karate.
