I have no idea where you get this elitism from Kendo is a way of life. Stop being ignorant and at least inform yourself. It's kinda useless to try and discuss with people who don't even know the sport.
btw: Your first sentence is a 1a troll post.

This is getting a bit out of hand, Shauni's post should've calmed you down, so let's look again.

I don't understand why people get all uptight about animes when they don't do [insert my favorite past time here] perfectly.
Then you go from saying it is 'awful' to it being 'ok' The whole "plot" is centered around Kendo. It's not "merely a vehicle". They should just have named it differently, some imaginary sport would have been ok. But if they use the names and stuff, they should do it right. Otherwise they will insult the people who devoted a significant part of their life to this sport. ? Lucky Star is kinda ok, Bamboo Blade is awful. K-On insults all guitar players, Saki insults all mahjong players, Cross Game insults all baseball players, Ippo insults all boxers etc. Don't be so uptight.
Wangster bashed k-on too, but at least he wasn't so elitist about knowing music.

Football. Read Eyeshield 21 (Not watch, the anime's a lot worse). It follows the rules while doing a lot of improbable plays, and is still ****ing awesome.
Spice and Wolf was good. Railgun's decent though I'd prefer a sequel to Index rather than a spinoff. Starting Black Lagoon and Haibane Renmei.
And if you can't tell, I think Index is better than Railgun at the moment.

Railgun is better than Index, I'll take fillers over overcondensed arcs any day, at least until it gets to Naruto or Rurouni Kenshin levels. If JC staff go on to do vol 7~12 by cutting out 50% of each vol like they did season 1, I'll throw a fit.

so is [insert sport here] , but I guess it's kinda useless to try and discuss with people who don't even know the sport.
Your posts imply that Kendo is somehow 1 step above other sports, but you don't bother to explain why. You attack Bamboo Blade on the grounds that it doesn't do justice to kendo, but the point isn't to do justice to kendo is it? The point is to use kendo to advance the plot. Anyways I'll just end it here.
Just finished Neon Genesis Evangelion. Not sure I understood what was going on 100% of the time though :/

You should watch The End of Evangellion (movie) if you haven't yet. It really pulls the whole series together a lot better than the last few episodes of the Evangellion TV series did.

I actually just finished it. Didn't do much in pulling it together though.
god shinji is such a douchecanoe

Why? The first movie is just like rewatching the first episode, why would it make him feel better?

So, I'll admit that when I choose to watch an anime, it is often based on the amount of fan service, because I'm a massive pervert. I had heard Needless did a decent job, so I watched the first episode before TSL started, and I genuinely think it will hold my interest if it keeps up.

2 episodes into Texhnolyze and the lack of dialogue + random gunfights make no sense to me ;_;

Texhnolyze is brutally slow.

There's a subbed camrip floating out there. It's not the greatest quality, but it gets the job done. If that's not your style, I guess you could always wait for the DVD to be released. It shouldn't be too long now, I'd imagine.

I checked out Eyeshield 21 and although I didn't like it I wish other studios would try and work on another football related anime. Something geared towards realism.
They have a billion baseball series, I just want to see a company do football the right way.
