Maze...
Maze looked like it might be a lot of fun, so, years ago, I picked up the VHS version of Maze...
Maze bears a passing resemblance to other gender switching series like Ranma 1/2, but, in a twist, this series comes with a hint of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Maze is a very silly epic quest with a zany cast of characters. There's a lot of fan service, but, no naughty bits. There's no gore and the action sequences are pure formula, but, overall Maze is very good. In fact, I've repurchased Maze on DVD. I gave Maze a 3 out 5. The Maze TV soundtrack CD has 36 tracks and I liked 3 tracks for a total of 8.3% which works out to a rating of 1 out of 4. It should be noted that many tracks are less than one minute.
