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

Bayonetta: Bloody Fate is a 2013 anime film produced by Gonzo, based on PlatinumGames' 2009 video game, Bayonetta by Sega. The film was directed by Fuminori Kizaki, with a screenplay by Mitsutaka Hirota. Bloody Fate was the first piece of Bayonetta media to be voiced in Japanese, as opposed to the first game which was voiced entirely in English. The film was released in Japanese theaters on November 23, 2013, and later released on DVD and Blu-ray Disc on February 14, 2014. The film has been licensed in North America by Funimation and the English dub features most of the same voice cast from the game reprising their respective roles. After the positive reception of the film, the Japanese cast of Bloody Fate were brought in reprise their roles in Bayonetta 2, as well as the special Wii U edition of the first game released in 2014.
