[Guyver Spawn]

Mezzo Forte - I had this on DVD for a while now and never really watch it. I remember hearing about this anime, but never seen it outside of a few random clips. It's from the same people that made Kite and Kite was a anime that I never got into. I saw Kite once in High School after hearing a lot of people love it while I found it rather dull. Mezzo Forte on the other hand was a lot of fun and surprisingly good.

The main characters are great and there is a lot of personality for them. They are all very likable and made me want to see more of them. Kite too itself way too seriously and too drama heavy for a anime that was over the top. Mezzo Forte knew that it was going to be a over the top anime and the anime give us over the top action with funny humor. The animation is solid and the English dub voice cast is pretty good too. Melissa Fahn is great as Mikura. She put in a lot of energy for her character. My biggest issue with this anime is that something didn't make much sense like the connection between Mikura and the main villain. I saw the edited version, so I probably need to check out the uncut version later.

Unlike most OVA's, this got a sequel in 2004 called "Mezzo DSA". So I do look forward on watching the anime TV series next. Overall this was a very enjoyable anime and I recommend it for action anime fans. Grade: B
