Customer Reviews

In response to the other reveiwer's claim:
This series is not actually "Banking" on Mezzo's success, Mezzo Forte was actually created BEFORE Mezzo was ever thought of... Mezzo is a direct sequal and is more of a cash in than Mezzo Forte ever was...

now, onto my review:
Mezzo Forte was originally intended as a Hentai(anime porn). However, the majority of the series was actually filled with action scenes, with only a few hardcore sex scenes sprinkled here and there. A cut version was released afterwads with all of the sex scenes being removed.

This version of the DVD comes with both of the two episodes in their original untouched animated form, as the "Directors Cut" on the box would imply. that means it's also got all of the sex scenes.

Animation: **** 4/5
Great animation, although it's a little outdated for nowadays, especially as a 2 episode OAV.

Story: ** 2/5
Nothing special here, standard revenge tale of murder and guns, the main characters bring it up a star, however, as they are al fairly interesting.

Sound: *** 3/5
The voice actors in both the sub and the dub are fairly standard, nothing outstanding, nothing terrible, just average. the sound effects, however, sound great, and you've got all of the atmospheric music you could ever want.

Overall: *** 3/5
If you like action anime, then this is for you. Even though it's short, it packs a punch, and you can always continue it by picking up the much more teen-friendly "Mezzo" Series, which is 13 episodes long.

Excellent
The other reviewers covered it in more detail, but I just wanted to say I really enjoyed it. Very fast paced. Boring it is not, even if it didn't have hardcore scenes.

Great
It wants to be Kite, but is below that. But still a good adventure.
