Oggy simply wants a peaceful kite-flying day, but the cockroaches steal his kite and sabotage his efforts with fireworks. As sparks fly, Oggy’s frantic chase ends in hilarity when he cuts his own kite’s string.

Naruto brings his shinobi skills to the battle, controlling multiple ninja-themed kites with precision. Using his tactics to stay ahead, he confuses opponents while winning hearts as the crowd favourite.
. Honey Bunny: The Dynamic Duo
The mischievous duo enters with a giant carrot-shaped kite. Bunny handles the string while Honey takes to the skies, snipping rivals’ kites mid-air. Their antics leave everyone laughing and cheering, proving they aim to win with flair.
