A very dark psychological anime that needs more attention. While the cast might not be the best, the story and themes are great, watch it.

Five years ago, a string of grisly murders shook the city to its core and now the rumors have begun once more. Boogiepop... Everyone knows about Boogiepop: meet her one dark night and you are taken. People tell each other the stories and laugh: no one believes that she can possibly exist in this day and age. Still, strange things appear to be going on and the darkness is taking on many forms. Something is out there. Are you safe? (Source: RightStuf)

Series of vignettes that seamlessly mix the past with present. Main plot comes together wonderfully. Best watched after reading the novels.

Ayu_

A masterpiece of an anime that collects vignettes together to form a great addition as a side story to the novel series.

A dark psychological trip that shines in its ability to connect every episode to the last when they can stand alone. Almost sub-episodic.

Haunting and beautiful (assuming you like the early 2000s aesthetic). Definitely worth a watch.

YumiShigeru

Not interesting enough to warrant the rewatches it needs to be fully understood. If the timeline of events was clearer, it'd be better.
