There is a special discussion in Japan these days on the date of July 5. This is due to manga artist Rio Tatsuki’s prediction in the book “The Future I Saw” written in 1999.
Tatsuki claimed that a huge tsunami would come in Japan on 5 July, which could be more terrible than the 2011 Tohoku disaster.
Prophets and increasing concerns of Japan’s ‘Baba Venga’
Rio Tatsuki is often called ‘Japanese Baba Venga’ in Japan. He has earlier successfully predicted many major incidents such as Corona virus, Princess Diana, and the 2011 earthquake-sunmi. Their predictions are published as Manga Comics, but sometimes they have also proved to be correct in reality.
Tatsuki has reported that signs such as boil, bubbles and rapid vibrations appear in the sea before the tsunami. Currently, the number of earthquakes in the southern islands of Japan has increased considerably, which has increased fear and anxiety among people.
Earthquake fair on Akuskijima Island
Amidst the Tsunami prediction of July 5, the Akuskijima Island of the Torakara island has also seen a huge frequency of earthquakes. From June 21 to July 1, 2025, a total of 736 earthquakes have occurred here, out of which more than 50 shocks were so fast that people could feel them. The intensity of the earthquakes was mostly between 3 and 5, but some tremors were so strong that the goods kept in the houses fell.
Akuskizima is a volcanic island, located about 150 meters above sea level. The risk of tsunami is considered less here, but due to such a large number of earthquakes, the possibility of major disaster has increased.

The news of the tsunami coming in Japan on 5 July has created panic in the entire area. Although scientists and administration are cautious, manga artist Rio Tatsuki’s prediction and frequent earthquakes have made people fear in the hearts. In the coming days, the situation is being closely monitored by the government and experts. People have been appealed to be prepared for any emergency and rely on official information by avoiding rumors.
