Seven Seas Entertainment published the light novel in English,
and is reprinting the novels along with new volumes. The company
describes the story:
There is an urban legend that children tell one another about a
shinigami that can release people from the pain they may be suffering. This
"Angel of Death" has a name: Boogiepop. And the legends are true.
Boogiepop is real.
When
a rash of disappearances involving female students breaks out at Shinyo
Academy, the police and faculty assume they just have a bunch of runaways on
their hands. But Nagi Kirima knows better. Something mysterious and foul is
afoot. Is it Boogiepop, or something more sinister...?
Madhouse previously animated the Boogiepop light
novel series into a 2000 television anime. Right Stuf released the series on VHS
and DVD in North America.
