The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
Konjiki yasha (金色夜叉) è un film del 1937 diretto da Hiroshi Shimizu. Il soggetto è tratto dal popolare romanzo L'usuraio di Ozaki Kōyō del 1903, che, prima di questa, ebbe almeno già sette versioni cinematografiche. Questa è la prima sonora cui seguirono un altro film nel 1948 e uno nel 1954, a colori, per la regia di Koji Shima che forse è l'unico altro adattamento di cui resta memoria.
