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
Two teenagers are hospitalized for different illnesses. Yuichi has hepatitis A and Rika has a weak heart. Yuichi notices Rika and tries to befriend her. As they spend time together, they start to fall in love.
