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
Pretty Cure (ふたりはプリキュア, Futari wa Purikyua; lit. 'We Are Pretty Cure'), also sometimes stylized as PreCure, is a Japanese anime television series produced by Toei Animation and the first installment in the Pretty Cure metaseries created by Izumi Todo. It aired on ANN, with 96 episodes across two seasons. The first season, directed by Daisuke Nishio, aired from February 1, 2004, to January 30, 2005, in the same timeslot as Izumi Todo's previous series, Ashita no Nadja. It received an English-dubbed version, which aired in Canada from March 2009 to July 2010. In the season, two middle school students gain the power to transform into the “protectors of light”, Pretty Cure, and are tasked with collecting the Prism Stones to restore the Garden of Light while fighting against the forces of the Dark Zone, who caused its destruction. A second season, Pretty Cure Max Heart (ふたりはプリキュア Max Heart, Futari wa Purikyua Makkusu Hāto), aired in Japan from February 6, 2005, to January 29, 2006. It introduces another member of the group, Shiny Luminous, and follows the Cures’ efforts in collecting the twelve Heartiels to revive the Queen, whose life has taken the form of Hikari Kujou/Shiny Luminous. Two Max Heart movies were released on April 16 and December 10, 2005, respectively. It was succeeded by PreCure Splash Star in its timeslot. The series' main motif is yin and yang.
