For those complaining about the quality, this clip is sourced from the 2017 Media Blasters restoration of this title. Most of the original 35mm elements appear to have survived, but some sections were either lost or damaged to the point that sections had to be sourced from an NTSC master tape…which was poorly deinterlaced and suffered from aliasing and severe rainbowing. Even the uncut X-rated release has a couple of shots sourced from the R-rated cut due to missing elements.
I have noticed it in every single edition I have found I wonder if someone spliced together two different copies and everyone online has simply copied it, or if the original anime has this same effect too It is a shame because the high quality parts are some of my favourite looking animations in history.
@@NowhereBeats Apparently, some of the original film was lost, so they were only able to remaster what they had. For everything else, they're using old copies.
@@NowhereBeats You can check out other stuff by Yasuomi Umetsu, the character designer, director and creator of Kite. There's Mezzo Forte, which is much more comedic and fun than Kite, but it also has hentai scenes depending on which version you're watching. There's also Mezzo DSA, its TV sequel. Outside of an episode or two, and some some other bits scattered about, expect a bump down in animation quality. There's a sequel to Kite called Kite Liberator, but I haven't seen it. The designs are a bit more stylized that what you'll see here in Kite, but Tenamonya Voyagers and the Starship Girl Yamamoto Yohko OVA series (there's a TV series, too, but its art style is different) also have a similar feel. The Kizumonogatari films have pretty similar sense of character design to this, and incredible action sequences, but the overall aesthetic of two are very very different. Stepping back from the animation, though, these movies are prequels to a multi-season television series. You won't be confused any if you decide to watch them first, and many people do, but if you have any Monogatari stuff on a watch list somewhere, I'd recommend checking out these films after watching the first season. It's usually a very dialogue heavy series, so the Kizu films are kind of the outlier with how much action they have.
You'd be surprised that there's a good amount of old anime that were preserved in a shitty was like this. Nadia and Brain Powerd had stuff like this, for example.
She wasn't falling that fast yet, but it would definitely tear your muscles up good if not outright break bones. What I want to know is how that guy missed his first shot from point-blank range. LOL
@HardrightBiGirl I've seen a lot of action movies where the hero/ine is visibly struggling to hold onto the bar. And it clearly hurts in the first place.
In the extended version, they keep going to the Earth's core, straight out the other side and into space, and the movie just continues infinitely until they reach the next solar system. Good on them for cutting it down to something more realistic.
1:10 For anyone wondering, the two drivers are fine. One was shown leaving his truck, and the other was not in his car anymore when the shot was cut to the dead guy.
How the fck was she alive after all that and is no one gonna say anything about how strong that girls grip strength was? Hell she actually managed to hold onto the thing while falling.
She was a cool character despite being so tragic. I like the wackyness. It is strange as I prepare this wacky stuff as a 20 odd year old more than I did as a child. Usually it is the other way around.
1000%, she was using light feet perk. Like, that's fucked up she dropped 60 floors, a tunnel, and to the subway, then got launched in the Air for 6 floors then "oh fuck i almost died", that's Crazy.
Back in 2000, I had a friend who had never watched anime and asked me to introduce him to some. I showed him this movie. I'm still not sure if that was a mistake or not.
@TkOHarley14 well tbf the majority of english releases of this ova was an edited cut with the hentai removed, which the director himself has said is his preferred version of the anime since the sex scenes were forced on him by producers.
Looks like the clip was stitched together from two different masters. It's mostly crisp and vibrant, but some segments are of lower quality. Still an awesomely over-the-top scene!
The release on blu ray that came out a couple years back only has most of the film remastered. Some of the film was lost and couldn't be restored. Don't know if it has been restored since that release.
Whoo boy! Anime people. They are made of sterner stuff than regular people in real life. Surviving falls, explosions, and thrown through buildings. God this was fun to watch.
Quality over quantity Unfortunately, companies do not invest into hand-drawn art like this anymore. It is difficult, requires great artists and a LOT of time compared to today's digital slop.
It's not "hentai". Whoever uses this term in relation to this movie was probably 12 at the time and only remembers the sex scenes. By your logic, Game of Thrones is a long-drawn-out porno.
Yo. I randomly clicked onto an AMV that had an MSI song (Molly), way back in early 2000's before youtube was a thing, to Kite, and when I went to search up Kite... Yeaaaaaah. Didn't know it was a hentai, or what a hentai even was. Teenage life was never the same.
For a moment I thought they were going to reach the Earth's core.

Fun fact: in the uncut version it briefly cuts to a guy and girl having sex while they are falling. Mainly for a humorous effect
shhhh it's the boss and the secretary
Long time ago it almost got away with it too.
Yeah, that part had me laughing ngl, like, Sawa was falling to a probable death and then cut to that lmao
wish i would have remembered this before showing it on stream lol
I remember watching uncut version on youtube
The film has so much details that look somewhat realistic and then you have this. Epic scene through.
And you find out it's porn.
How fragile are those roads? 😭
i feel like your wrists would completely tear off if you could even catch the bar in the first place
Absolutely would

@HardrightBiGirl It wouldnt rip off your hands but you'd definitely lose all the skin on the palms & dislocate both shoulders
"No way this is the greatest fall in anime."
3 and a half minutes later
"I stand corrected."
Imagine this came out 20 years ago but the details on this anime is much better than anime nowadays.
that's most old anime tho, drawn better but bad animation due to worse tech leading to bad fps
Because is an OVA
@looselygaming6130 it's designed with low frames in mind. Newer anime has the same amount at most depending on budget.
It was an ova
Why? because you want your anime episode to be done in a week where OVA in the 90's was done in months time
And not a single innocent life was lost. Really adds to the humor how literally no one but the bad guy died.
He was just some poor shmuck who did his completely legal job while getting brutally murdered by that vicious girl.
Well that old lady from lift and man in car definitely died
Not true. The explosion had to kill some people
Bodyguard not bad guy.
Why bodyguard bad he was just doing his job
I cannot get over how AMAZING this scene is!!
In the extended version, they keep going to the Earth's core, straight out the other side and into space, and the movie just continues infinitely until they reach the next solar system.
Good on them for cutting it down to something more realistic.
The music video from No Doubt called Ex-Girlfriend recreated the scene. Probably the best live action adaptation.
