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.
How it feels
A ninja takes on a resurrected demon and its army of undead warriors in feudal Japan. The story follows his struggle against supernatural forces and his own haunted past.

What happens
Ninja Resurrection (Japanese: 魔界転生, Hepburn: Makai Tenshō; 'Demon Realm Reincarnation') is a two-part Japanese original video animation (OVA) directed by Yasunori Urata and produced by Phoenix Entertainment. Based on Futaro Yamada's novel of the same name, the OVA was released from February 1997 to March 1998. Though unrelated narratively, ADV Films marketed Ninja Resurrection as a Ninja Scroll sequel during its initial North American release. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
