In this world everything exists, anything can happen at any moment, and everything does happen all the time
This page is dedicated to Boogiepop Phantom anime series. As this anime contains much riddles, here I want to publish my conception of the entire thing.
Boogiepop was created by Japanese writer Kouhei Kadono. He has produced great number of novels about Boogiepop. I read nothing of it. I watched live-action movie Boogiepop Never Laughs (ブギーポップは笑わない) aka Boogiepop And Others and anime series Boogiepop Phantom (funny, it’s named ブギーポップは笑わない (Boogiepop Never Laughs) in Japanese too! It means anime has English title (like composite humans :-))). Also i read about it on the net (see Blogroll).
Although anime is sequel to the movie, so to say “phantom”, “echo” ;-), it’s far superior, as it has much deeper philosophical, scientific meaning. I regard it as a work of art.
Main anime artist is Kouji Ogata. Some more credits: series composition — Sadayuki Murai, character design — Shigeyuki Suga, directed by Takashi Watanabe, produced by Project Boogiepop.

I like this series.
А не було бажання перекласти фільм Бугіпоп?
