I've always preferred the classic Red Frame, before it evolved into the usual Seed clusterfuck of weapons and backpacks. Still, my 1/100 HG Red Frame was looking lame, and this guy is the basic design when you ignore the backpack/sword/bow thing. Still I Don't like to waste cool parts, so I assembled the whole thing.
27 Kit trees????? Holy Canoli, what a challenge! Actually most of them were sword parts, so it wasn't too bad. He did come with a flamboyant red stand, which he needs, because he can't stand without it. Here's the finished product!

This is a slick design, but why does he need two Katanas ? I suppose because he's Japanese as hell! His backpack also turns into a sword, because why the fuck not ? His backpack needs the stand to support him, and it can't even hold him up, it just acts as a back support. It looks strange, but it's about what I expect from Seed/ Destiny designs. He can stand on his own pretty well without the backpack though.

Red Frame Kai can't even hold his sword, so don't expect dynamic poses from it. Especially with a bright red stand being what holds it up! The design is cool, but feels misguided. I'll give him a 7/10. He has some cool ideas, but they don't mesh together particularly well. A lot of this kit was reused from the MG Blue Frame 2nd L, where it looked better, but this guy is still better than that strange Sengoku Astray. Who approved that Football player with dual swords design ?
