MrDisco Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 well just finished watching ep1 seems like it will be an interesting series. The trio (you remember them from the Mezzo Forte ova right?) are hired to stop a man (Asano) from killing his ex-coworker (Takijawa). Seems 15 years ago Takijawa had one of the cute chicks (Misaki) in the lab where they work take a sample of a dead famous musician (you'll laugh at the name). she agrees and does the deed but the head of the lab finds out about it. he goes ballistic and kills the chick thinking she sold him out. fast forward to the present where that Takijawa now suffers from amnesia. Asano, who was in love with Misaki, spends his time plotting revenge. He obtains a drug that will restore his memory - his goal is to revive his memory, make him repent, and then execute him. Mikura shoots the drug and stops Asano from completing his plan. Then the ghost of Misaki appears and tells Asano to let go of his memories of her and to find a new woman (ok this part was weird). The building in which they find Takijawa is the old lab they worked in and comes tumbling down. Mikura saves Asano in one of those "no way!" action scenes. The ep ends with a sniper aiming his rifle at Mikura and the gang while they lounge around in their roof top hideout. Overall a fun ep. needs some sex though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrDisco Posted January 8, 2004 Author Share Posted January 8, 2004 Well anyways to bring this back more on topic, the point being is that mezzo forte and kite had a number of sex scenes in them. now granted they were ovas this series has those elements removed along with toned down violence (although you do get the obligatory sfx and blood splatches). In replacement humour has been added making this series (well just my guess based on 1 ep) far less grity. So for those expecting the same as the ovas will hopefully not be disappointed.

EXO Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 hmmm... I'll check it out, but what's the point of making Mezzo w/out the sex and violence? They don't have to make it explicit but hopefully they left the sexual tone of the OVAs. But the violence should have remained, I liked the over the edge stuff they did. Yes, I'm desensitized.

Yohsho Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 I like it because it was funny, like how the Mezzo OVA was funny. I hope I was not the only one that thought there was some funny bits in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F360° Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 well I guess the action /funny scenes are good enough , but it would be alot better with some sex and other stuff OAV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_vandermeer Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 Loved the Mezzo Forte and Kite OVAs. I'll definitely be checking this one out. Even without the sex, it sounds like they toned down the action, which is unfortunate. However, i'm anxious to see what the "no way!" action scene at the end is like.
