Fear spreads faster than facts in our digital age. Ryo Tatsuki, a former manga artist,

has millions worried about a July 2025 tsunami based solely on her dreams. Travel bookings to Japan have dropped sharply,

with some agencies reporting declines of up to 50 percent, already dealing a heavy blow to the country’s travel sector.

The 70-year-old artist says the ocean south of Japan will “boil,” causing a huge tsunami that could hit many

Asian countries. But before you change your vacation plans, remember there is no scientific evidence to back up her prediction.

Sometimes, dreams are just dreams.

Who Is Ryo Tatsuki?

Ryo Tatsuki used to be a Japanese manga artist who started having strange dreams about disasters in the 1980s.

She started to record these dreams in a personal diary and published them as a comic book called

“The Future I Saw” in 1999.

The book got little attention until 2011 when Japan suffered a massive earthquake and tsunami in March.

People remembered her book mentioned that exact month, making her famous overnight.

Now 70 years old, people call her Japan’s new version

of Baba Vanga, after the legendary Bulgarian mystic

who accurately predicted world events like

9/11 and Princess Diana’s death before dying in 1996.
