There is an urban legend that tells of a shinigami that can release people from the pain they are 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. Yet some students know better. Something mysterious and foul is afoot. Is it Boogiepop or something even more sinister...?
Boogiepop isn't just a rumor. In the body of his friend Touka, the killer phantom tells high schooler Keiji that the world is in danger.
Keiji Takeda is waiting for his girlfriend, Touka Miyashita, a junior at the same school. When she does not show up at the appointed time, does not get in touch and the sun starts setting, he gives up and starts walking home. On his way, he sees a peculiar man, and like the rest of the crowd now gathering decides to not get involved. But then, a figure draped in a large cloak and wearing a strange hat rushes to the man's aid. This new figure looks exactly like his missing girlfriend.
