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

Saint Seiya: Soul of Gold (聖闘士星矢（セイントセイヤ） 黄金魂（ソウル オブ ゴールド）, Seinto Seiya: Souru obu Gōrudo) is a Japanese ONA series, a spin-off from the classic anime Saint Seiya, the animated adaptation of Masami Kurumada's manga of the same name. Although Toei Company produced the series, it was not animated by Toei's own studio Toei Animation, but by Bridge. The series was announced on October 29 at the 2014 Tamashii Nation Figure Expo in Japan, revealing it would focus on the deceased Gold Saints in the aftermath of Athena's battle against Hades in the 20th century. It was also revealed that the series approach would be an original anime story, as it would not be an adaptation of any of the arcs contained in Kurumada's manga or other related spinoffs in the franchise. An official event was to be held on October 31, 2014, at the Tamashii Nation 2014 Expo in Japan, to further introduce the series to the specialized media and to the public. Saint Seiya: Soul of Gold was released on April 11, 2015. Soul of Gold is part of the projects that commemorate the 40th anniversary of Kurumada as a manga artist. Soul of Gold drew a 50 million viewership worldwide by September 2015. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
