Here's some Trivia: The reason why this film never saw the light of day for most Vhs Tapes in Most countries is because (And I quote) A member of a Japanese "No Nukes" group cayght wind of the film. Watched it, and was horrified at the Imagery it displayed. So they complained to Toho abd a Major Censorship board. But this happened after it came out on Tv .
They Red Band this Movie in 1980s, and ever since, bootlegs, and some Drastic cut versions exist outside of Japan.
This is one oft the weirdest Movies of the The Toho Company, I wonder why it was was never released offically as DVD or Video. The German Version of this Movie ist indeed heavy edited, this Happend also to Nihon Chinbotsu(Das letzte Inferno der Untergang Japans), Gorath (Ufos zerstören die Erde), The Last War (Todesstrahlen aus dem Weltraum) and Virus (Overkill- Durch die Hölle zur Ewigkeit) by Kinji Fukasatsu. I think this kind of has bothered the german distributers in some way.
i remember seeing this as a kid on tv (i think on channel 9 out of ny). the ending freaked the hell out of me and started me on years worth of nuclear war based nightmares.
the trailer from Movie is (Katastrophalic-endtime-moderately !

当時確か小学一年生の時、テレビで放送されて見た記憶があります。アップ主様がおっしゃる通り、何故かバイクもろとも崖から落ちていくシーンが一番衝撃的でした。
永遠とスローモーションで崖から落ちていくバイクと若者を見ながら、何故死ぬの?と子ども心ながら悲しくなったのを覚えています。
