I hope someday someone could upload this film.

I have it VHS. It features some very nice SFX-Work and cool Production Design (as well as an impressive Musical Score by Kentaro Haneda) but the Story is convoluted as hell.

Requesting that you upload more clips from this movie: Destruction of Minerva Base, Black Hole Scene, Jupiter Ghost, Firefight, Destruction of Jupiter, please.

日本沈没を筆頭に、小松左京さんの小説の本質はスペクタクルでは­なく、人と国家・守るべきもの　などを問いかける奥深いものです。

なのにこんなになっちゃって......

What's the name of the song that played through the end?

Also, badass movie. ;) I loved it.

Mr. Sakyo Komatsu of the original writer of this movie died.

I grew up reading his science fiction novel. "SF magazine" was my Bible in the junior high school age.

昨日、小説版を読み終えてこの映像を見たら涙が出てきた。

「復活の日」も「日本沈没」も「さよならジュピター」も何度読ん­でも面白い。

どの時代にも合う普遍的なテーマなのかな。

I bought this film on VHS when I went to Tokyo in 1984, and a few years ago at CHILLER THEATER convention in Parsippany, NJ on DVD.

@GodzillaXAbudAwwal however, nothing beats tsubaraya. his effects in rodan are impressive even by todays kaiju standards. if he was alive, i think with the current technology, he couldve done something even more impressive than friggin star wars.
