Komatsu’s Sayonara Jupiter Is A Doozy!

Sayonara Jupiter, also known as Bye-Bye Jupiter. was made in Japan by Sakyo Komatsu in 1984. On Wikipedia, it says that Komatsu “was one of the most well-known and highly regarded science fiction writers in Japan.” I’m wondering whether the author of the wiki entry saw Sayonara Jupiter. It’s not that Sayonara Jupiter is a bad movie… well, it is a bad movie, but it is also several other strange things.
