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

Bakuryū Sentai Abaranger (爆竜戦隊アバレンジャー, Bakuryū Sentai Abarenjā; Burstosaur Squadron Abaranger) is a Japanese Tokusatsu television show and Toei's twenty-seventh production of the Super Sentai metaseries. After Toei filed a trademark for the series on October 17, 2002, it aired from February 16, 2003, to February 8, 2004, replacing Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger, and was replaced by Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger. The program was part of TV Asahi's 2003 Super Hero Time block with Kamen Rider 555. The series is based on dinosaurs and explosions. Its action footage, and episode 10 in its entirety, was used in Power Rangers Dino Thunder. The cast members from the series reprised their roles for the 2014 film Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger vs. Go-Busters: The Great Dinosaur Battle! Farewell Our Eternal Friends. Shout! Factory released the series on Region 1 DVD on 8 November 2022. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
