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 film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
Jenny la tennista (エースをねらえ！?, Ēsu o nerae!) è un film d'animazione del 1979, diretto da Osamu Dezaki e prodotto dalla Tokyo Movie Shinsha in collaborazione con Madhouse. Il lungometraggio è un nuovo adattamento della prima parte dell'omonimo manga di Sumika Yamamoto, già precedentemente trasposta in due diverse serie TV anime, la prima delle quali sempre diretta da Dezaki, e a cui aveva partecipato gran parte dello staff di questo film, come il character designer e art director Akio Sugino.
