So…I’m at work right now, and the school’s computers don’t recognise Japanese text (rendering Babelfish useless), but unless I’m mistaken, this link is saying that there was a new Boogiepop novel released back in April of this year. Apparently (from another link which led me to this one), the title of the supposed new book is Boogiepop Lost in Moebius, though judging from past Boogiepop novels, I’m sure there’s more to it, given that the majority of the series’ installments carry such ridiculously long titles as Boogiepop in the Mirror Pandora: Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is? and Boogiepop Paradox: Heartless Red - The Unusual Contact of Vermillion Hurt and Fire Witch. This makes book #13, and there’s also apparently a third volume of the Beat’s Disciple short story anthology out, entitled Providence.
Okay, so Boogiepop lives on in book form, and why exactly am I so excited about this? Well, aside from it being Boogiepop and me being a complete Boogiepop fanatic, there’s also the fact that this book in particular (again, if this really is a new book release) will have been the first new installment in just over two years. Given how the Boogiepop series has typically had a release schedule of at minimum one book every year or so (the only exception until now being the eighteen month stretch between books 11 & 12, Boogiepop Unbalance: Holy and Ghost are Steeped in Plastic Crimes & Boogiepop Staccato: Welcome to Jinx Shop), to see this one pop up after such a length of time really is rather exciting.
Even if it won’t be in English anytime soon. If ever. ![]()
There are currently 14 Boogiepop novels (I may or may no be counting the Beat’s Dicipling) in Japan and it’s still not over. Yes you are correct, but I’m not too sure if Seven Seas is going to publish them. Hopefully, but you not only have to support Boogiepop to get the rest of the novels you have to support the other novels such as Pita Ten. Or so I’ve heard, but I’m not really sure if your asking a question or not. ^^; So I’m definetly NOT calling you stupid if you think I am. I’m just confused.
