Personality[]
Eiichi Kite is a genius at inventing machines, often reading his encyclopedia and inventing gadgets from the past. He can even repair normal machines and invent variations of gadgets. Since Eiichi Kite finances his inventions from his allowance and New Year's money, if his invention breaks, it stays broken until he saves up the money to fix it.
