Boogiepop Phantom -
Boxed Set (Evolutions 1-4)
Anime DVD Review
Wacky, weird, different and insightful are some of the adjectives we could use to describe this unique piece of work. But words fail to do justice. Using a variety of film technique, director Takashi Watanabe abandons the rollicking comedy of Slayers for a series that meticulously feeds you little pieces of a broadening horizon.
The goal of all this is to transfer an idea into the viewer's mind and make them think. And when the story does unfold in your mind, you will get a chill down your spine. It's intriguing, mysterious, and creepy up to the very last episode. If you liked Serial Experiments: Lain, you'll love this.
