About Mezzo

Meet Mezzo (MEZZO -メゾ-), an action, adventure and comedy anime by ARMS and Studio Pierrot (2004). Here is the premise in a nutshell. In short: Mikura, Kurokawa, and Harada are the 3 members of the Danger Service Agency (DSA). Mikura is the brawns of the group, Harada is the brains, and Kurokawa is just a bitter ex-cop that likes to think he's in charge.

As things develop, they'll take on any job as long as it involves lots of danger and, of course, money. If you want to live long enough to eat dinner, you better not cross them. Their biggest case, however, could prove to be finding out why someone wants Kurokawa assassinated.

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Voice work is led by Tomoko Kotani as Mikura Suzuki and Takumi Yamazaki as Tomohisa Harada. Think of it as a pick for viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. At 13 episodes in total, it is easy to plan a viewing schedule.

Production & Appeal

Production sits with ARMS and Studio Pierrot, which means the visual identity of Mezzo follows that studio's craft. Because it leans on action, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. With a 6.2/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. Voice casting, including Tomoko Kotani as Mikura Suzuki, adds to the appeal for fans who follow seiyuu. Released in 2004, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
