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

Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance (機動戦士ガンダム 復讐のレクイエム, Kidō Senshi Gandamu Fukushū no Rekuiemu; "Mobile Suit Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance") is a Japanese English-language animated web series produced by Sunrise and Safehouse. Part of the Gundam franchise and made in commemoration of the series' 45th anniversary, it is set during the final stages of the One Year War and follows Zeon mobile suit pilot Iria Solari and her Red Wolf Squadron as they defend the European front against the Earth Federation's counteroffensive. The series is written by American producer and screenwriter Gavin Hignight and directed by German director Erasmus Brosdau, with character designs by Brazilian designer Manuel Augusto Dischinger Moura, mechanical designs by Kimitoshi Yamane, and sound direction by Hiroaki Yura. Wilbert Roget II composed the music, and Australian actress Celia Massingham stars as Iria Solari, performing both voice acting and motion capture for the role. It is the second Gundam production to be created entirely in computer animation after Mobile Suit Gundam MS IGLOO, and the first to be animated using Epic Games’ Unreal Engine 5. The series premiered worldwide on Netflix on October 17, 2024. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
