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

『赤かぶ検事奮戦記』(あかかぶけんじふんせんき)は、和久峻三による法廷ミステリー小説『赤かぶ検事シリーズ』を原作としたテレビドラマシリーズの総称。司法試験を受験して合格したエリートではなく、検察事務官から副検事を経て検事に昇進した特任検事・赤かぶ検事こと柊茂(ひいらぎ しげる)が活躍する。 1980年から1992年まで続いたフランキー堺主演のシリーズ、1994年からは橋爪功に主演がバトンタッチされ、そちらは『新・赤かぶ検事奮戦記』シリーズと呼ばれて区別されている。2009年からは主人公・柊茂が京都地検に転勤したという設定で中村梅雀主演によるリメイクドラマが開始された。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
