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.
How it feels
People who die at the same moment are sent to a mysterious bar where a bartender named Decim forces them to play a game that decides their final fate. The series explores the nature of human morality and the afterlife through each pair's story.
