It had been announced for some time now but Seven Seas is continuing with its releases of the Boogiepop novels, now in Light Novel form starting with the book that explains the origin of Boogiepop, "Boogiepop at Dawn" in August of this year. (The original 3 Novels will be released in light Novel form later this fall)

I hope I'm not the only Boogiepop fanatic around here (I know Nagisa is a huge one though), so please go read the first 3 novels, and for all things Boogiepop, check out Seven Seas Boogiepop page.

So... whoelse is anticipating it? Very Happy

I'm certainly looking forward to it. To be honest, I prefer the typical manga size of the original novels and I'm not looking forward to the new size. But I am most definitely looking forward to continuing the story.

Personally I think it'll bring a more authenticity to the novels themselves.
(Though the first three novels will probably be rare in that original Novel Manga size format.

Yeah, I can't wait for this to come out either. Huge fan of the novels.
I don't mind the new size, except that I own the manga-sized set and sometimes I can be one of those people that needs all of their books to match up on the shelf.

The first three novels are getting second edition re-releases which will be in the new size. So if it really bugs you, you can always double dip. I may double dip myself.

There are currently no plans for Seven Seas to do 2nd Editions of the original three novels.

A preview of the book has been posted on Seven Seas' website:

It's extremely good so far, and only fuels my hunger for the final product and beyond (hopefully). I hope as many people buy this book as possible in order to make it a success.
