However, during the Duel against his own father, Kite found that his reasons for hunting the Numbers were all a lie, his perception of those using such cards was wrong as he states that all those he hunted were innocent souls. In the beginning, Kite despises those wielding the "Numbers" due to Hart's condition and the lies told to him by Mr. Kite shows little consideration to Dextra, once told Dextra not to concern herself with him when they were young or when she sacrificed herself for him, he bluntly claimed he doesn't care about anyone besides Hart. Kite has little interest in Nistro's one-sided rivalry, and told him if he gets in his way, Kite will consider Nistro an enemy. Besides Hart, Kite shows little compassion towards others, such as Nistro and Dextra. He also didn't tell them about his plan to find the origin of the "Numbers", or about Yuma and Astral, and lied to Mr. Faker of hiding the truth from him about the "Numbers", and only hunts them in order to heal Hart. Whenever he speaks with Heartland, he tends to glare at him. Heartland, and tends to hide secrets from them. Kite doesn't trust and shows hatred towards Dr. During the World Duel Carnival Finals, Vetrix notes he began his hunt with the ambition to cure his brother, but began reveling in stealing souls as a Numbers Hunter, shown most clearly when he steals two souls at once with a smile on his face, and his intent to take Quattro's. He considers his hunting to be a job he has to do, not one he wants to do. He is however not above using the fear his opponents already have to make them doubt themselves as seen with Astral when he could have Summoned " Number 39: Utopia" against Kite, but the fear of " Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon" prevented him from thinking clearly. Kite is opposed to inflicting fear on his opponent, calling it an excessive and despicable thing to do. Before Kite Duels, he would always say his usual phrase, "Allow me to collect your "Numbers" along with your souls", and when he takes the "Number", he says "Numbers hunting complete". He announces his arrival by whistling which tends to frighten the person he is about to Duel. īecause of Hart's condition supposedly being caused by the "Number" cards, Kite Duels and acts ruthlessly when it comes to facing those whose possess such cards. Kite clearly cares more about Hart's safety than his own, as he keeps using the Photon Transformation to hunt " Numbers" not caring that it damages his body and constantly ignores Orbital 7's warnings because he needs the "Numbers" to heal Hart. He also shares a brotherly bond with Hart similar to that of Seto Kaiba when it comes to protecting his younger brother, who is his "everything", from any danger. Kite initially carried a pious and self-righteous demeanor as he aims to crush any opponent with a religious fervor in his duels. He can also do this independently of Photon Transformation for when he is a spectator. He can Duel without a Duel Gazer however, his left eye turns red and several marks resembling a Duel Gazer are seen when he Duels. Unlike any other regular D-Pad version of a Duel Disk (that had been seen up until that point), Kite's disk is a blue and single-bladed disk that curves outside. It is later shown that this transformation physically and mentally drains Kite, eventually hurting him when it is used. When he uses a " Photon" card while in "Photon Mode", his body lights up. When Kite Duels, his black outfit switches to white through a process called " Photon Transformation".

After defeating Mizar on the Moon, Kite deems Mizar the true Dragon Tamer and entrusts him to complete his quest after succumbing to the vacuum of space.
