Um, there is no Kite graphic novel. Maybe an artbook?

Doesn't look that bad. Of course naysayers will cry almost on principal.

Strange that it used that Syndicate song.

To early to say if the film will be any good but i can see it doing about as well as the first Punisher film maybe. And on that her damn hair is far too red yes it's base off an anime film but make her hair look like a wig and well Confused

They should use the No Doubt song "Ex-Girlfriend": Laughing

enurtsol: I forgot she had pink hair in that video. So the movie's really a remake of it, and not the anime? Laughing

So, uh, why was a brand new talkback thread created for this? Shouldn't the first talkback thread for the KITE film and this current one be merged, or something like that? Glad to see that my post in that thread, along with others, didn't get deleted, but it's still a shame that many people may skip over that first one. :/

Animerican: It's probably just a bug. Two people sent messages at the same time, so the thread got split.

looks cheesy, but in a fun way, I can dig it

and the thought of Samuel L. Jackson watching Kite makes me giggle

I've been wondering about this as well. Happened with another thread I posted in a few days ago.

Wait is Samuel L. Jackson playing Akai the step father that rapes Sawa at like 14!?
I don't have a problem with it in anime but I know the main stream media will. I don't want to see douche bag news and government people taking about hentai. It will be Rapeplay all over again.

Has anyone working on this watched the uncensored OVA?

I'm not sure if I'm excited for this or not. SLJ is kind of hit or miss as far as quality goes.

I kind of have a feeling they are going to leave that out. Its really hard to even find the uncensored OVA in the US... its hard to tell from the clip, but it looks like they may have used that drug as a replacement for the sex or something...

It's not at all hard to find the uncut versions in the US, you can easily buy them at Rightstuf this instant. I have a feeling this movie won't generate any buzz for the media to even take notice, but I will look forward to when Brad Jones & co. go review it.

Brad Jones review the movie then Snub review the uncut OVA.
That would be great.
