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 series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
In the future, Earth sends a fleet of spaceships to explore a distant star system. The crew faces alien threats and political conflicts, combining their fifteen vehicles into a giant robot to defend their mission.

What happens
Armored Fleet Dairugger XV (機甲艦隊ダイラガーXV(フィフティーン), Kikō Kantai Dairagā Fifutīn; "XV" read "Fifteen") is a mecha anime series aired in Japan from 1982 to 1983 for 56 episodes (52 regular episodes and four recap episodes). In the United States, the series was heavily edited to become part of the Voltron series. The Dairugger footage was the primary source for the "Vehicle Voltron" episodes, though various footage was also inserted into the more commonly known "Lion Voltron" episodes (themselves adapted from another, unrelated Japanese series, Beast King GoLion).
