Mezzo Forte
Mezzo Forte (メゾフォルテ, Mezo Forute) is a 2000 original video animation (OVA) directed by Yasuomi Umetsu, but in the United States these OVAs are edited into an anime movie and released it on DVD on the same year. The OVA, which concerns a young woman, Mikura Suzuki, and her mercenary business, the Danger Service Agency (D.S.A.), is the spiritual sequel to Umetsu's Kite, as both feature the continuing elements of a highly trained female protagonist, dark comedic tone, extremely violent and slickly directed over-the-top action sequences, as well as the graphic sex scenes, which can be found only in the uncut version. Mezzo Forte takes place sometime after the events of Kite. 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. Both versions, however, retain the more violent aspects of the movie. The United States release contains 20 minutes of extra footage not seen in the Japanese release, however, none of the pornographic content from the Japanese director's cut was included. The abridged version of Mezzo Forte, however, has no sex scenes and only contains two nude scenes (in which unobscured female breasts and labia are depicted). In addition, an international version was released in Japan on July 23, 2004. This version includes 20 minutes of extra footage, but none of the adult scenes found in the director's cut or the uncut version. There are two different versions of the OVA that features sex scenes, one of which features different footage, including a rape scene that explains why the protagonist is apparently injured during the fight. Version 2 is known as the International release.

Mezzo Forte
Mezzo Forte is a 2001 OVA directed by Yasuomi Umetsu, but in the U.S. these OVAs are edited into an anime movie and released it on DVD on the same year. The OVA, which concerns a young woman, Mikura Suzuki, and her mercenary business, the Danger Service Agency, is the spiritual sequel to Umetsu's Kite, as both feature the continuing elements of a highly trained female protagonist, comedic tone, extremely violent and slickly directed over-the-top action sequences, as well graphic sex scenes. 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 these scenes taken out, the original version and the other with them left intact, the director's cut. Both versions, however, retain the more violent aspects of the movie. The U.S. release contains 20 minutes of extra footage not seen in the Japanese release, however, none of the pornographic content from the Japanese director's cut was included. The abridged version of Mezzo Forte, however, has no sex scenes and only contains two naked scenes. But the uncut version is still rated 18 and up by U.S. distributor, Kitty Media. In addition, an international version was released in Japan on July 23, 2004. This version includes 20 minutes of extra footage, but none of the adult scenes found in the director's cut or the uncut version.
