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

B-Daman Fireblast, known in Japan as Cross Fight B-Daman eS (クロスファイト ビーダマンeS), is the second B-Daman anime series in the Crossfire saga, succeeding B-Daman Crossfire, and is based on the Emblem Charge System introduced in the toyline in September 2012. It premiered on October 7, 2012, after an airing of Beyblade: Shogun Steel at 8:45 JST on the TV Tokyo network. It was later moved to 8:30 JST following the conclusion of the Beyblade: Shogun Steel anime, and the introduction of the Beast Saga anime. B-Daman Fireblast first launched internationally outside Japan in June 2014, in the country of Spain, followed by India, Germany and others. On March 27, 2015, B-Daman Fireblast was released in North America through a new app for iPhone and iPad, with an Android device release on April 13, 2015. The app upon release featured access to the first 9 episodes in English. Originally, the English dub was to be run by The CW's Saturday morning block Vortexx following the run of B-Daman Crossfire, but those plans never came into fruition as the block later ceased operations in September 2014.
