Why did Mr. Miyagi call him Daniel-San? If he was his student

>If he was his student shouldn't he have been Daniel-Kun or Danny-Chan?

both of those are terms used with close familiarity, -san is more respectful, no teacher, let alone someone as stiff as Mr Miyagi call anyone -kun.

Because in the 90s, much like now, no normal person gave a fuck about the Japs and their stupid fucking honorifics.

GET OUT REEEEEEE

Hmm... Daniel-chan has nice legs... Hmm.. . Daniel-chan has soft skin... Hmm... Daniel-chan has feminine penis... Hmm.. . Very tight, Daniel-chan.

But Miyagi came somewhat like family to Daniel by the end, wouldn't that honorific change?

Am I being baited?

Because he and his mother were clients at an apartment complex the worked at.

My bad, I remember seeing it in the early 90s, didn't realise it was mid 80s. Time is cruel man.

Best answer really.

This. And it also reveals the biggest error in the movie

The correct way for him would be call him Daniel-sama also for the fact he is a Jap foreigner in US and must respect the nationals.
