Sound: Another case of 'doing what it says on the tin'. Everything was well-rendered or accurately drawn and this component stood out justifyably, fully deserving the 10. The combination of computer graphics as well as more traditional constructions made it very pleasing on the eye. The story element is something that most people will have differing views on but I think 7 is a fair score for this component.Īrt: Well, I have to say that this was one of the standout features of the OVA. At least with Kite you could imagine the events happening in real life. In it's own right, the sci-fi plot is quite entertaining but I was disappointed with massive leap in terms of content from the gritty original to something completely fictional.

Even though it is only an hour long in length, the way the plot is constructed makes it feel like a full-length movie. might say that the absence of sex scenes makes the anime not seem like a true sequel and I would have to agree to some extent, but I feel that to do a sequel too similar to the original would have inevitably not have been as good.

Whilst the original focused on a gritty underworld story of corruption and violence (which featured nudity), Kite Liberator takes a completely different tact and focuses more on a kind of action-based sci-fi plot. Story: First off I'll start by saying that I thought it was very interesting that they made a non-hentai sequel to a hentai-pigeonholed movie. But as you can see from the ratings I'm part of the contingent that liked it. Well, this is a tricky one to review as it's something that most people will have mixed feelings about as the original Kite was a very interesting work in its own right.
