MAL has the title displayed as Boogiepop wa Warawanai in keeping with MAL's romanji titles, but the thing is, it's not Boogiepop wa Warawanai, it's Boogiepop wa Warawanai: Boogiepop Phantom. below, you can see my photos of the official Japanese scenario books and the UK blu ray release where the titles are clearly displayed as Boogiepop wa Warawanai: Boogiepop Phantom. even Wikipedia has its title displayed correctly. correcting the title would make sense because it would further differentiate Phantom from the 2019 series: people often think 2019 is a reboot of Phantom and the incorrect titles on MAL don't help.   |
| Yes, the title should include "Boogiepop Phantom". |

Yes, but there wasn't even "Boogiepop Phantom" as English title recently, which it is why I edited my post before your reply: Finally "Boogiepop Phantom" included at least as a main English title |

Boogiepop1989 said: Yes, but there wasn't even "Boogiepop Phantom" as English title recently That's odd , i'm 100% sure it was , and for years. Actually , even the Japanese title was "Boogiepop Phantom" prior the release of the 2019 Anime. Edit : Here it is , from 5 months ago : WayBack Machine You can go back up to 2013 : WayBack Machine |

| Several other anime have 2 titles on their respective covers, and the database treats them the same way it treats Boogiepop. Are you sure this needs to be changed? Shingeki no Kyojin: Attack on Titan My Hero Academia: Boku no Hero Academia Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. My youth romantic comedy is wrong as expected. |

The guidelines says so tho : III.1 Main Title MAL's romanization of the official title, including subtitles. And there is entries such as Yosuga no Sora : In Solitude Where We Are Least Alone. The Kara no Kyoukai Novel and Manga also includes the "The Garden of Sinners" subtitle. |
