KITE LIBERATOR EPISODE 1 SPACE STATION MOVIE

The main character really kind of reminds you in a lot of ways of Sawa from the first film.

The stereo effects were really accurate and made listening to the movie through headphones much more enjoyable than through standard speakers.Ĭharacters: I felt you could empathise with the characters in the story quite well in a similar way as you could for the first movie albeit for different reasons. The themes worked well with the scenes throughout and the sound effects and timing were spot on. 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. See it of you like assassin's and some smooth action but don't have the time or desire to invest in layered characters or story.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. In general, Kite Liberator ends feeling very premature and half baked. Just as i was getting interested in them the credits began to roll. This annoyed me mostly because i actually was liking the characters i saw. Character arcs are started and begin to be flushed out, when the movie is suddenly and confusingly halted. Any number of ideas are presented and not a single one is carried to term. All the characters battling feel graceful and capable of prolonged conflict but none of the action scenes go on very long and even the climax at the end felt snubbed.

All this is good but the action never seems to reach the peak of it's potential. The animation is quite smooth, the shootouts and chases are fast and the explosions are big. Kite Liberator is more of an action film, with some comedy throughout. Kite, was more or less a hentai with some nice action fight scenes thrown in. The mood is decidedly less depressing and the theme material is handled much less gratuitously.

Kite Liberator is sort of a sequel to Yasuomi Umetsu's film Kite. Her father works on a space station and longs to see her, also unaware of her moonlighting hobby. Nights she spends killing apparently evil men throughout the city. However, what her friends and co-workers don't know is that she's also a cold blooded assassin. An average school girl has a part time job as a waitress and maintains an average life in an inner city home.
