So, is the consensus that of the 4 Karate "kids" (Daniel, Johnny from part I, Chozen from part II and Barnes from III) that Daniel ends up actually being the least successful?

In the short amount of time that passed between Daniel moving to CA and winning the tourney Johnny committed the following crimes:

Battery
Sexual battery
Drugging on school grounds

On the OT and MSB, this qualifies him as a tPOS. Safe to say he ended up really fricking up his life too much for even daddy's lawyers to fix.

How would Chozen have done well? The only person that liked him gave him one big huge Okinawan middle finger.

Barnes was already successful. Trust me.... You don't have full page ads in karate magazines without a high degree of success.

At the end of the day, Sato forgave him.

For one thing, he was born again on that forgiveness kick so he can't be all lovey dovey with the guy that he fantasized about killing for 40 years and then tell his nephew "Oh, but none of this applies to you..."

For another, Chozen was his only heir so Okinawan honor probably dictated he get the company so outsiders wouldn't.

If nothing else, Chozen was a born hustler (rigging the weights, gambling, karate skills) so he could have made something happen.
