‘Japanese Baba Vanga’ Predicts Mega-Tsunami in July 2025 — Warns of a ‘Boiling Sea’ South of Japan

Regardless of one’s skepticism, there is a thriving interest in predictions of the future. Though mystics like Baba Vanga and Nostradamus passed away in 1996 and 1566 respectively, their legacies continue to spark fascination. Followers believe they foresaw major global events—from 9/11 and the Great Fire of London to the rise of Adolf Hitler and even the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.

Baba Vanga’s prophecies remain widely discussed. Some claim she predicted encounters with extraterrestrial life, a devastating war across Europe, and even Lewis Hamilton winning a record-breaking eighth Formula 1 title with Ferrari in 2025.

After examining the predictions of the so-called “Living Nostradamus,” attention now turns to another modern-day prophet—Ryo Tatsuki, often referred to as the "Japanese Baba Vanga." She has gained notoriety for forecasting a massive tsunami set to strike southern Japan in July 2025.

Ryo Tatsuki, originally a manga artist, began documenting her prophetic dreams in the 1980s. Her rise to prominence came after the publication of her manga The Future I Saw in 1999, which detailed several predictions. Followers claim her visions have matched real-life events—including one dream titled “March 2011 Great Disaster Comes,” which appeared to anticipate the devastating Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011.

In her writings, Tatsuki also mentioned a “new virus” that would peak in 2020 and return a decade later—something many now link to the COVID-19 pandemic. Her latest warning is particularly alarming: she describes an ocean turning “boiling” and a cataclysmic tsunami in July 2025, possibly caused by an undersea volcanic eruption. She claims this disaster would be three times more powerful than the 2011 tsunami.

The epicenter of the disaster, according to her dream, lies in a diamond-shaped area between the Northern Mariana Islands, Indonesia, Taiwan, and Japan. She also described “dragon-like” figures moving toward this region—a symbolic image that some interpret as seismic disturbances approaching vulnerable coastlines, including Hawaii.

Japan's position along the Pacific Ring of Fire—a hotbed of seismic activity—adds a layer of plausibility to these concerns. The Nankai Trough, located just south of Japan, is known by seismologists to be capable of triggering massive earthquakes and tsunamis.

Although experts emphasize that there is no scientific evidence supporting Tatsuki’s predictions, some have acknowledged that the location she describes aligns with known geological vulnerabilities. A report by Times New World notes that while her claims aren’t grounded in science, they are “not geologically far-fetched.”

Online, the reaction has been mixed. Some are skeptical, while others urge caution. One user on X (formerly Twitter) wrote, “Predictions aren’t certainties. But if there’s even a 1% chance they’re true, it’s better to be prepared than panicked.”

Another commented, “That’s chilling—hopefully just a false alarm. Still, better safe than sorry.”

A third person added, “This raises important questions about disaster preparedness. Authorities should ensure that emergency plans are in place for regions that could be affected.”

Some have even jokingly likened Tatsuki to having a “Death Note”—a nod to the famous manga where a notebook grants its owner the power to decide who lives or dies—because of the eerie accuracy some attribute to her visions.
