Boogiepop Series

ブギーポップシリーズ

An urban legend passes among the girls of Shinyo Academy: a shinigami called Boogiepop appears to release people from the suffering ahead of them. The rumor turns out to be true, and the entity surfaces as the alter ego of ordinary high schoolers, beginning with the quiet student Touka Miyashita. Classmates including Nagi Kirima and Kazuko Suema are pulled into the fallout. Told through shifting, non-chronological perspectives, the light novels follow Boogiepop and the students around it as it moves against what it calls the enemies of the world.
