The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

《超人力霸王》(日語:ウルトラマン,羅馬化:Urutoraman;英語:Ultraman),是由日本圓谷株式會社製作特攝電視影集,共39話。該部作品通常被認為是繼《超異象之謎》之後圓谷特攝系列的第二部作品。若未將僅有怪獸出現的《超異象之謎》列入,本作為正式出現超人的系列第一部作品。 開頭標題下標有「空想特攝系列」,而奥特曼亦為劇中登場的巨大變身英雄名稱。整個奥特曼系列中的英雄經常被人們統稱為超人力霸王。為了避免與後來的作品產生混淆,本作品中登場的超人力霸王通常稱作「初代超人力霸王」(日語:初代ウルトラマン)。 該劇於1966年7月17日至1967年4月9日在TBS電視台每週日19:00-19:30首播,而其DVD化的畫音質改良版本(共10卷)則於1999年12月8日至2000年6月21日分別發售,2013年7月10日該作品的藍光光碟版本也已發行。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
