In 1998, his light novel Boogiepop and Others won the Fourth Dengeki Novel Prize[1] and was later adapted into a manga that was illustrated by Kouji Ogata. An anime spin-off of the Boogiepop series, Boogiepop Phantom, aired in 2000 animated by Madhouse and an anime adaptation of the series was released in 2019 by the same studio.
The Eccentric Dead in White Sickroom (しずるさんと偏屈な死者たち, Shizurusan to Henkutsuna Shishatachi) is the first novel in the Shizurusan series written by Kadono and illustrated by Kaya Kuramoto. It tells four stories of two girls and one short story about a fictional character created by the girls.
