Yup. I watched it for the first week and a half. Got tired of it though. It doesn't quite hook ya like the rest of the TechTV anime series. Good theme song though.

i've seen the entire series (13 eps.) and i liked it, although sometimes it can be confusing what is going on actually Confused . the ending is good and a lot of issues become a lot clearer. it's melancholic, creepy and sad, but it's also different from a lot of other shows. it reminded me a bit of s.e. lain sometimes. i'd prefer lain though (if you can compare the two).

on a scale of 1 to 10 i'd give it a 7.

Wow.... I am really loving boogiepop!! I've only see the 1st 2 DVD volumes, but so far I am completely taken with it. (Unfortunately I don't get Tech TV). I love the way each episode focuses on a different character. Although they each have their own separate story, they are somehow intertwined... The non-linear story telling accentuates it all even more. Its all a giant, fasciating puzzle...

I too am a fan of S.E. Lain (see my avatar), and there are several similarities (the most basic being that both make you think). I'll have to see the rest of boogiepop to judge which I like better. But so far I am enjoying the individual episodes of Boogiepop more than the individual eps of Lain... if that makes sense.... I really grew to love Lain after I saw the entire series (the ending really made it for me). Perhaps that is because of the way Boogiepop is segmented... I can't wait to see how it all ties together.
