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
An OVA set three years after a devastating war. It follows a young Earth Federation pilot who gets caught up in a shadowy Zeon operation to steal a nuclear-capable mobile suit. The story connects the original Gundam series to its sequel.

What happens
Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory (Japanese: 機動戦士ガンダム0083 STARDUST(スターダスト) MEMORY(メモリー), Hepburn: Kidō Senshi Gandamu Daburuōeitīsuri Sutādasuto Memorī) is a 13-episode Japanese OVA series produced by Sunrise. It was released in Japan from 23 May 1991 to 24 September 1992 and is set in Universal Century 0083, three years after the One Year War depicted in Mobile Suit Gundam (1979). Positioned between the original series and Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam (set in U.C. 0087), the OVA dramatizes the postwar "Operation Stardust" incident and functions as a connective chapter in the early UC timeline. It is the franchise's second OVA project, following 1989's Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket. The series was directed by Mitsuko Kase (episodes 1–7) and Takashi Imanishi (episodes 8–13), with character designs by Toshihiro Kawamoto and mechanical styling/design by Shoji Kawamori and Hajime Katoki. A compilation film, Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: The Afterglow of Zeon (also known as The Last Blitz of Zeon), opened theatrically in Japan on 29 August 1992. Known for its high production values and detailed mecha action, the project helped define the franchise's early-1990s UC aesthetic. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
