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
This series is set in a small family-run convenience store in a suburb that makes its own side dishes. Among the staff is a silent part-timer named Muto who never speaks and constantly makes something, with no one ever seeing his face. The story follows the other employees who all have their own secrets as they interact with this mysterious figure.
