Also Sawa, the protagonist of Kite and Kite Liberator , appears in the first few minutes of Mezzo Forte , just when Kurokawa and the detective are speaking; Sawa walks by and looks at Kurokawa, then walks away. Mezzo Forte takes place sometime after the events of Kite. Her pistol also makes a cameo , being in the weapon stash in Kurokawa's car. Like Kite , the OVA was released both in the United States and Japan in two different versions: one with graphic sex scenes taken out, and the other with them left intact.
Yasuomi Umetsu is back. The artistically stunning character designer and most recently director of the controversially graphic action thriller Kite has returned to similar territory in his follow-up, Mezzo Forte. Although it shares a couple of similarities to its gloomy predecessor, this show is a comedic romp for the post- Pulp Fiction world.
