The catalogue in 3D
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 series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
This anime makes fun of magical girl shows by copying their style in a goofy way. It follows a group of female characters who transform into magical warriors to fight aliens. The series was based on an Internet hoax, not a real comic or story.

What happens
Papillon Rose (パピヨンローゼ, Papiyon Rōze) is an anime series which parodies the magical girl genre, particularly Sailor Moon and Cutie Honey. A 24-minute OVA was released in 2003 followed by a six-episode TV series, broadcast in Japan in 2006. A DVD collection containing the OVA and TV series was released in North America in 2010. The origin of this anime series is different from most other anime series' as it is based on an Internet hoax rather than a previously existing manga series. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
