Boogiepop Never Laughs: Boogiepop Phantom is an anime spinoff of Kouhei Kadono's Boogiepop Series of novels. The plot revolves around a mysterious pillar of light, a caped person called Boogiepop and the disappearance of a group of high school students.This anime is not an adaptation of any of the arcs of the series, but an original Interquel story that takes place between the first and second volumes, making also references to the Prequel sixth volume Boogiepop at Dawn. It was created with involvement of Kadono himself.Though not a very similar show in plot and story, it is probably mentioned more often by comparison with Serial Experiments Lain than in any other context. Both shows were animated by Shigeyuki Suga in his very personal visual style. | |

| Boogiepop Phantom / int_17ce80aa | comment |
All There in the Manual: In order to know what the Hell's going on, it helps to have read the series's first volume, Boogiepop and Others, and prequel volume, Boogiepop at Dawn (or you must watch the Boogiepop and Others 2019 anime, which adapts both, before starting this anime). | |

Batman Gambit | |
| Boogiepop Phantom / int_38d02d44 | comment |
Batman Gambit: Nagi pulls a minor one on Kazuko when she asks her if she knows Touka, and if so how the friendship is going. This bewilders Kazuko (Touka's not even in their class) but also piques her curiosity (as Nagi knew it would; Kazuko's nothing if not curious). Sure enough, Kazuko later notices Touka and strikes up a conversation with her, and by the time they all graduate the two are best friends. It's not stated, but Nagi presumably did this either to get Kazuko out of her hair or because she knows that if something bad happens Touka/Boogiepop would be Kazuko's best protection. Or maybe both. | |

Flashback | |
| Boogiepop Phantom / int_53bb70b2 | comment |
Flash Back: The entire plot is connected mysteriously to an event 1 month ago (which occurred at the end of Boogiepop and Others), with references to an event 5 years ago (explained in Boogiepop at Dawn). The entire series, with the likely exception of the final episode, is made of flashbacks within flashbacks. | |

Back from the Dead | |
| Boogiepop Phantom / int_8967e17f | comment |
Back from the Dead: Kuroda and Manticore, in a sense; the former as a kind of living memory of his former self (similar to the "shadow" of Echoes that appears in Boogiepop at Dawn, the novel Kuroda dies in), and the latter a shadow of its former self, having not actually died at the end of Boogiepop and Others as was previously believed. | |

Evil Counterpart: Boogiepop Phantom seems to be this to the true Boogiepop, given that it has the shape of Manticore's human form wearing Boogiepop's clothes, although it is later revealed not to be the case. | |

Living Memory: Several character turn out to be this, even if by different reasons and methods each. The title Boogiepop Phantom and the series' antagonist, at the very least, are living memories of the first novel. | |

Introductory Opening Credits: The opening introduces Touka, Nagi, and Kuroda with names beside their appearances in it. Though ironically, in the majority of episodes, this is the most you'll ever see of those characters, as they are appear quite sparingly in the show itself. | |
