In a world where we have barely forgotten the lockdown and are back to life without masks, a new, even more ominous prediction is coming – and it comes not from a scientific institution, but from the diary of a Japanese artist. Ryo Tatsuki once predicted the death of Princess Diana. Then she predicted the Covid-19 pandemic. And now? She wrote that we are waiting for a giant tsunami in 2025, three times worse than the one in 2011.
Tsunami 2025: While many people roll their eyes at such predictions, others - based on past experience - prefer to ask themselves: What if he's right? And more importantly – What can we do to avoid being surprised again in the middle of the night, without electricity, internet, and no idea what to do?
When art becomes prophecy and a diary becomes more accurate than a weather forecast – we're talking about a Japanese artist Ryo Tatsuki, who has rekindled the interest of the global public with her diary entries. If years ago she was just an eccentric mangaka for many, today she is known online as “the woman who predicted Covid”. And now she has a new (not so pleasant) vision for us: a tsunami, which, according to her, will hit not only Japan in July 2025, but also the Philippines, Taiwan, Indonesia and many other island idylls.
Who is Ryo Tatsuki and why should we even trust her?
Ryo is no scientist, but her predictions are eerily accurate. In 1992, she wrote in her diary that Princess Diana would die exactly five years later. And indeed – it happened on August 31, 1997.
Then in the 1990s she recorded: “In 25 years, an unknown virus will come. It will peak in April 2020, then disappear and return in 10 years.” We're not going to lie - this prediction sounds scarier than any Netflix documentary series about the pandemic.
So when the same artist now says that we're facing a tsunami this summer that will be "three times worse" than the one in 2011, it becomes interesting. If nothing else, let's at least look at the location of the nearest higher hill.
Tsunami 2025 – prophecy or paranoia?
Ryo claims that a natural disaster of enormous proportions will occur at the end of July 2025. It's not just Japan - the waves are also expected to spread to Taiwan, Indonesia, the Philippines and many other places. If we recall 2011, when an earthquake triggered a tsunami that caused the nuclear crisis in Fukushima, then Ryo's words are anything but insignificant. But - an important caveat - for now, the prediction is not supported by scientific data.
Sadly, in recent weeks, a deadly 7.7 magnitude earthquake has also struck Myanmar, claiming more than 3,000 lives. Is nature really preparing for something bigger? Or have we simply become more sensitive to any prediction after COVID-19 caught us off guard?
What does the science say? And why you should still have a backpack ready
No, scientists have not yet confirmed Ryoji's vision. Seismologists are warning of increased tectonic activity in the Pacific Ocean, but there is no concrete warning yet. However, the following applies: better to be ridiculously prepared than tragically surprised.
If we think back to 2011 – the earthquake, the tsunami, the nuclear crisis. What if Ryoji's prediction is another signal that we shouldn't ignore?
If a tsunami really comes... Is the world even prepared?
Tsunamis are not just giant waves from Dwayne Johnson movies – they bring mass casualties, disappearing communities and health systems on the verge of collapse. In addition to physical injuries and drownings, there are also infections, psychological trauma and logistical chaos. The question is no longer, if, but how We are ready.
This begs the eternal question: should we listen more to those who write the log or to those who analyze the seismic data? (Hint: it's best to listen to both—and pack an emergency backpack.)
How to prepare for a possible tsunami in 2025:
1. Know your location
If you live in a coastal area or are traveling to Asia in the summer of 2025, check if you are in a risk zone. Know the evacuation routes - yes, even if you are just going on vacation!
2. Prepared emergency backpack
You don't have to be fancy, but your basic "go-bag" should contain:
- water and energy bars
- flashlight and spare batteries
- first aid and basic medicines
- copies of documents
- phone charger (even better: solar-powered)
- whistle – a whistle for calling for help (old school, but effective)
3. Download the right apps
Follow local authorities' warnings. Apps like MyShake, Earthquake Network or Red Cross Emergency These can save minutes – and lives.
4. Practice the script
Sounds dramatic? Well, Ryo's prediction is. It's always better to let your loved ones know where to go and who to call if there's a communications outage.
5. At home: lift valuables and secure electricity
If you live in a risk area: keep documents in a higher place, protect electrical outlets from water, and consider additional measures – from insurance to installing alarm systems.
Preparedness is not paranoia – it is responsibility
Ryo may be dreaming, but nature often decides to make her dreams come true. And while we can't prevent tsunamis, we can prevent panic, confusion, and additional casualties. Just as we learned during the pandemic – timely response saves lives.
- Don't spread panic, but information.
- Check local safety protocols in case of natural disasters.
- If you live in a coastal area, inquire about evacuation routes.
- And just in case – maybe just write down what you dream about. You never know, maybe in 30 years someone will write an article about you.
