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

『なんで私が神説教』(なんでわたしがかみせっきょう、英題 : The Reluctant Preacher)は、2025年4月12日から6月14日まで日本テレビ系「土曜ドラマ」枠で放送されたテレビドラマ。主演は広瀬アリス。 わけあって実家寄生のニート生活を送っていた麗美静は、それを心配する母親の叶子とその友人である加護京子に強引に説き伏せられ、私立名新学園の高校教師として2年ぶりに社会復帰する。 やる気もなく興味もなかった高校教師をやることとなった静は、今どきの生徒とはクセの強い教員たちから程よい距離感でリスクを避けるように指示されて深く関わらないでいた。だが、いじめをイジリであると主張する生徒についカッとなったことで、したくもない説教をする羽目となる。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
