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

Oha Suta (Japanese: おはスタ, romanized: Oha Suta) is a Japanese children's breakfast television show. Produced by Shogakukan-Shueisha Productions (ShoPro) for TV Tokyo, the show airs on TX Network (TXN). It premiered in 1997 as a relaunch of Ohayō Studio (Japanese: おはようスタジオ, romanized: Ohayō Sutajio, lit. 'Studio Good Morning'. Sutajio is a loanword from English word "studio"), which originally ran from 2 April 1979 to 27 June 1986 on what is now TXN; the title of this revival, Oha Suta, comes from the portmanteau of the original Ohayō Studio.
