A kite is a tethered heavier-than-air or lighter-than-air craft with wing surfaces that react against the air to create lift and drag forces. Kites are typically made of lightweight materials like paper, fabric, or plastic, and have a frame structure. They have a long history, originating in Asia and used for recreation, art, scientific research, and military applications. In Asia, particularly China and India, kites carry rich cultural significance and are often used in festivals. Kites come in various forms, from simple single-line kites to complex stunt and power kites. The principle of flight is based on aerodynamics, with lift and drag generated by the interaction of wind and the kite's surface, and they are connected to the ground by a line. Additionally, "Kite" also refers to certain birds of prey in the family Accipitridae, such as the Black-winged Kite and the Red Kite. Furthermore, there is a Japanese anime OVA called "Kite", which tells the story of a young female assassin controlled by corrupt police; this work is known for its violence and sexual content. Finally, there is also the anime "Hunter x Hunter", in which a character named Kite appears, being a Hunter who is later reborn as a Chimera Ant.
