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

Ultraman Ginga Theater Special (ウルトラマンギンガ 劇場スペシャル, Urutoraman Ginga Gekijō Supesharu) is a Japanese kaiju, and superhero, film, serving as the film adaptation of the 2013 Ultra Series television series Ultraman Ginga. It was released on September 7, 2013, which takes place during the season break of Ultraman Ginga, in-between episodes six and seven. This movie is double-billed with short CGI movie, Mega Monster Rush: Ultra Frontier - Dino-Tank Hunting (大怪獣ラッシュ ウルトラフロンティア DINO-TANK hunting, Dai Kaijū Rasshu Urutora Furontia Daino Tanku Hantingu), one of the shorts for the 2013 cardass game Mega Monster Rush: Ultra Frontier, which played first before the premier of the movie. A DVD and Blu-Ray release of the movie was sold on December 25, 2013 by Bandai Visual, costing around 3,990 and 5,040 Yen respectively. The main catchphrase in this movie is "Monster Competition! Let's Go, Ginga!" (怪獣争奪戦!行くぜギンガ!, Kaijū sōdatsu-sen! Ikuze Ginga!). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
