It could work just like the college football industry.

Thoughts?

Ask yourself this. Is college football an honest endeavor? Does it promote the values that kendo intends to promote? The answer to that question will show you whether this is really a dream that should be pursued.

Kendo would be ruined by commercialization and popularization. This is not pessimism, it's simply realizing that human greed will prevail. Once a thing becomes popular, it attracts those with money and once that happens, it attracts those with low morals.
None of us want to be a part of that.
