Ryo Tatsuki’s Chilling 2025 Tsunami Prediction Comes True
Japanese manga artist Ryo Tatsuki, often dubbed the “new Baba Vanga,” is once again in the spotlight after one of her most terrifying predictions appears to have come true.
Tatsuki, 70, claimed in her 1999 manga The Future I Saw that the ocean floor between Japan and the Philippines would crack, unleashing a tsunami “three times higher” than the one in 2011. While she predicted the event for July 5, 2025, a powerful 8.8-magnitude earthquake struck off Russia’s eastern coast on July 30, triggering tsunami alerts across Pacific nations, including Japan, the Philippines, and the U.S.
Tatsuki’s track record includes eerily accurate visions of Freddie Mercury’s death, the COVID-19 outbreak, and the 2011 Tohoku earthquake.
Her 2025 warning sparked mass panic earlier this year, leading to an 83% drop in Japan-bound flights and a 50% dip in Hong Kong reservations. Officials had tried to dismiss her claims as “unscientific rumors,” but recent events have reignited belief in her visions.
Despite later distancing herself from the exact date, the uncanny accuracy of her dreams has fueled a wave of online fascination — and concern.
