Recommendations

Female main characters, similar storyline. Both deal with assassins doing their jobs. Large amount of sex and violence. Surprisingly good ova's even if they took out the sex.  
report Recommended by Ranivus
Both about assassins with a strong girl lead role and a boy assassin. lots of action [there's explicit sex scenes as well however] both slaves at their job and doing what they're told by upper bosses. 
report Recommended by shootsbrah
Both are hentai/action OVAs with female assassins as main characters. Both are pretty violent and have decent stories.  
report Recommended by guiglar
In both shows, the young killers themselves are the most tragic victims.

If you liked the episode "Yellow Star", which was worked on my Yasuomi Umetsu, then you'll also like this as it was directed by him, contains the same character designs and is longer and more enjoyable. In a way Kite seems like a expanded retelling of the "Yellow Star" episode.

The feeling I had watching Perfect Blue was so similar to A Kite that I was surprised nobody made this recommendation yet. Even tho A Kite is listed as a hentai because of its explicit sexual content, it is actually a psychological horror story with an atmosphere very similar to perfect blue. It is also about a girl forced to do something she doesn't really like, which then has to face dangerous situations involving people close to her. Both are stacked with murder. A kite has more gore and more sexual content, while Perfect Blue staggers with the psychological trauma of the lead character.

Anime of a begone era, the style still ends up resonating despite the amount of time having passed. Dystopian is dystopian, with no punches held back regarding what one is willing to do to the characters, yet also shredding everyone psychologically to pieces, rendering everyone including the viewer raw. Neither series is for the faint of heart.

Yeah... in terms of the Bloody Scenes if you enjoy kite you will adore elfen lied...

Exploitative series with violence, bloodshed and sex. Only major differences is that A Kite doesn't deal with aliens, is more shorter and has the hentai tag.

This recommendation is in Spanish too. -The main character lose their parents and are taken to work. -The girls fall in love and their relationships have a very similar end. -Both have gore and sex scenes. -Las personajes principales pierden a sus padres y son llevadas a trabajar. -Las chicas se enamoran y sus relaciones tienen un final similar. -Ambas tienen escenas gores y sexuales.

Mature anime titles that are filled with intense violence, sexual content, and psychological themes. Both of these are great shows to watch if you're in the mood for something dark, depressing. 
report Recommended by MrOri
Gun action animes with violence, gore and a bit of sex in the mix. Memorable characters and story about making justice/revenge with own hands.

Similar charter design and usage of the colour. Protagonist young girl in adult world.

Hunters. Cowboy Bebop and Kite both follow this futuristic technology with hunters of some sort assigned with capturing or killing targets. Bebop follows bounty hunters Spike and Jet and their missions on who to get next. Kite is the same but it follows a girl named Sawa who is an assassin instead. Both are good action anime with the same kind of jazz music in them too. Kite having H scenes though. 
report Recommended by NextUniverse
Both have killer little kids and use them to their advantage in different ways 
report Recommended by veravv
Both are anime series with a profound sense of negative emotional intensity, where you know that things can keep getting worse. The level of violence, both symbolically and visually, is something to be highly mindful of. The conclusions of both anime will undoubtedly leave an emotional void in your heart. 
report Recommended by Alexei77
Both anime consist of bad ass gun wielding female main characters Both have fast paced action  
report Recommended by WindCharger
If you want an anime that has plot enjoyment and not just sex, then A Kite is for you. The Toshi Densetsu series although has more episodes than A Kite, it is enjoyable to watch. The music is good and the characters are loveable. And both series use sex as a way to move the plot forward instead of just being there because it's a hentai.

Mardock Scramble is the modern version of Kite. Dark atmosphere, young prostitute (Sawa in Kite and Rune in Mardock) as a protagonist, well-directed and brutal action scenes, nudity and sex, revenge and love, blood and gore, et cetera. 
report Recommended by kataneer
+ MC is assassin + In the middle of the story MC have interest in men who caused her to lose confidence as meaning become "assassin" + The ending is same 
report Recommended by SSSS_Shunaria
Watching Kite made me suddenly think of Battle Angel Alita. They both are oldschool with good grapics, has an assassin girl as a main character and rich for action and violence. Except Battle Angel Alita has much less erotic scenes 
report Recommended by twy
Both of these Anime are from the 90's and has the nice gritty feel that doesn't occur in the newer Anime. Both series are violent and extreme when it comes to the plot line, not to mention quite tragic in the way they end. Both series include flashbacks to help build up the characters backgrounds and there is a high level of angst to the plots, not to mention the advanced weapons that the main characters fight with, as well as the over all damage each take.

sex and violence 
report Recommended by animegorey
Way better anime with much better animation and gorey violence. No tentacle rape, but real scenes that actually pertain to story. 
report Recommended by animegorey
Both feature female protagonists that are forced into sexual servitude who exact bloody revenge. 
report Recommended by xthedestroyer
Sexy girl with handsome partner fights against the humanity trash. Really dark story, uncensored fun time and violation. English dub exist for both, but of course is terrible. A Kite has better storyline, but Luv Wave has robot girl :) 
report Recommended by viharphoenix
Kite features strong, explicit sexual content but if it was removed, both these series share many similarities. From the jaded girl trying to find a purpose as she carries out her orders as a hitman to her fondness and wish to protect a boy caught in her mishap ridden life, action and a Bourne Identity style moments color their anime canvases.

+ Both anime tell story about how assassin work + A lot sex scene + Gore element detected 
report Recommended by SSSS_Shunaria
- Both Anime tell story about the life of assassin - Both MC have a partner (Mireille & Kirika/ Sawa & Ubori) - Both anime also contain sexual suggestion (NOIR=yuri element / KITE=hentai scene) - Also IMO, NOIR have better ending rather than KITE 
report Recommended by SSSS_Shunaria
both animes are packed with action violence and interesting characters. Moreover both are a little hentai-ish - one more than the other ;-) 
report Recommended by Guybrush
Hentai anime with good storytelling, something rarely found in hentai genre. The art also very nice.
