I noticed 2000 adaption. Which do you believe is worth the time? And any notable difference between the two?

I somewhat prefer Boogiepop Phantom to the 2019 series, but both are good. However, Boogiepop Phantom isn't really an adaptation of the Boogiepop novels like the 2019 series. It takes place in-between the first two novels (or in-between episode 3 and 4 of the 2019 series).

I think if you want to read a light novel, then yes you should just go straight to them. I only watched the 2019 anime so far (and loved it), so I don't know how good they are. Most people who read the LNs say that the anime is a terrible adaptation. The 2000 anime is quite popular among critics, so you should try it at some point.

Depends on what you mean by the "original".

The original are the light novels. The first Boogiepop anime does not adapt the source material from the start, but this in a way gives it a unique mysterious and strange atmosphere that while mostly unintended is part of it's charm, which is why I would recommend watching the older Boogiepop anime first and then this new one that adapts the novel from the beginning.
You all need to watch Nami.

Both are worth the time, but I prefer Phantom as it's an arthouse piece.

I'd recommend watching this before Phantom as everything will make more sense once you do.

Those with dirty minds will find my Steam pic offensive
