The Next Karate Kid should be canon by virtue of having Michael Ironside as the villain.

Is The Next Karate Kid referenced in Cobra Kai at all? I know that 1-3 each are referenced to in one form or another, but what about that one? Haven't seen the series yet but I wanted to watch and refresh on the movies before I started it, but willing to skip the 4th if it isn't relevant in the slightest.

I've only seen it once like 20 years ago but to my knowledge it has not been referenced

No it hasn't been referenced yet. Watch it anyway, the movie is fine.

Pat Morita nearly got let go from Happy Days for being a Japanese-American playing a Chinese character. To keep his position, Pat came up with a backstory about Arnold having a Japanese father and a Chinese mother.

I guess that backstory is now canon for Mr. Miyagi as well.
