Thinking about going back to Kendo as well. but need to find a good school and ofc, financially I need to be able to do it.

Karate, huh? Heard the style is a lot about rooting yourself to the ground when you have to, and very strike-centric... or at least it seemed that way to me. Could be different, dunno, but it seems hard, external, explosive, and rooted.
... Okay, well there are many styles too, and I probably shouldn't be basing my opinion on YouTube kata demonstrations. ^^
Kendo too, I see. Katana are cool and all, but hey, can't find any koryu where I am. I tried Kendo before, but the instructors... didn't mesh well with me, I think. I'm more about the strategy right now, but they were centering more around the strike and the form of the strike, so I didn't really feel I was putting any thought into anything. That, and the fact that I couldn't really communicate with one of them very well... despite both of us being native English speakers. Maybe I just found the wrong dojo. Dunno.
Maybe sometime, I'll have a look around my area to see what's around. I was thinking about doing something different (for me) like Thai Boxing, don't think I'll have any trouble finding that, but we'll see. I've gone a little too long without some form of martial art, and I'm getting a little antsy.

Well, late, but hey there and welcome.
Chihaya and Haruka fan? Great!
Also, an RPG/Shooter fan? Huh, what kind of shooters? Also, I'm partial to the AT-4. RPG's are nice, but there's better alternatives, unless you're poor.

No idea what that means. So I'll just smile and nod ^^

Ah, it was a joke. A joke.
You said you liked RPG's and shooters, so I joked about rocket launchers, since RPG stands for both Role-Playing Game and Rocket-Propelled Grenade.
That didn't work out so well.
