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 series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Blue Blink (青いブリンク, Aoi Burinku) is a fantasy adventure anime series created by Osamu Tezuka. The anime is based on the classic Russian animated film Konjok-gorbunok by Ivan Ivanov-Vano, which in turn was based on Pyotr Pavlovich Yershov's fairy tale of the same name. This was Tezuka's last anime series. Osamu Tezuka died while this series was in production. The studio completed the production according to his plans. The show was streamed at Anime Sols, but was removed, because it did not meet its goal of crowd-funding for DVD. It is currently only available for legal streaming at Viki.com.
