Evangelion and Japanese Sword Exhibit

Evangelion is a very popular Japanese animation made in the 90’s. (When talking about a certain decade, we put "the" first) Even today many people, including grown-ups, are crazy about it. (It might sound more natural to say, "A lot of people are still crazy about it today, even grown-ups.")

I and a friend of mine A Friend and I (When you talk about another person and you, you always put "I" or "me" after the other person or people.) went to the exhibition; (Again, it might be more natural to say, "I went to the exhibition with a friend.") craft men and swordsmiths reproduced the swords using used by Evangelion’s characters. We’re not a big fan big fans (because there are two of you, we use the plural--this is even hard for native English speakers sometimes!) of this anime, though the illustration is beautiful though. (This sentence would sound natural if you if it was made TWO sentences: "We're not big fans of this anime. The illustration is beautiful though." If it's made one, then "though" or "but" should come right after the first part.)

There were notes by each swordsmiths about their work on a wall. They say that how much it’s tough it is to make them because it’s they're not really traditional swords. Nevertheless, But (this sounds a little more natural) at the same time, they had to try not to destroy the image that the fans have huge fans having. Seriously, I do respect their passion and the challenge of their for professional work.

NOTE: Your English is really good! Mostly I was changing things to make them sound a little more natural to native speakers.
