Being a fan of Kite, I was surprised that there was a new OAV called Kite Liberator. I think just by looking at the DVD I knew it didn't follow the original OAV, but I thought I'd give it a try. My first annoyance with it was the use of computer animation. I rarely ever like computer animation in my anime, especially when it's tacky and clashes with the rest of the animation. There were some scenes in space in this movie, a lot of which was computer animated.

This Kite story follows a young girl assassin, Monaka. Her father lives on a space station and by eating a lot of space food meant to only strengthen his bones, he transforms into a monster; a giant bone monster. It's quite silly really. So he ends up coming back to Earth and stumbles upon Monaka who was sent to destroy him, though at first she doesn't know it's her father.

This hour long OAV has no conclusion and leaves a lot of issues unresolved. I really don't know why anyone bothered making another Kite movie. This seems like it should at least have another installment. I guess I just went into it expecting more. A little disappointed, but I don't care that much.
