A Japanese manga artist named Ryo Tatsuki has become famous worldwide for her strange but accurate predictions. People are now worried about one of her recent forecasts — a major disaster in July 2025, especially in Japan. As this date gets closer, many travelers are canceling their trips, and Japan’s tourism industry is taking a big hit.
Who is Ryo Tatsuki?
Ryo Tatsuki is often compared to Baba Vanga, a famous blind Bulgarian mystic who reportedly predicted events like 9/11 and Princess Diana’s death. Tatsuki is not a traditional fortune teller — she’s actually a manga artist. But in her book “The Future I Saw,” published in 1999, she wrote about future events that later seemed to come true, such as the 1995 Kobe earthquake, the 2011 tsunami in Japan, and even the death of singer Freddie Mercury.

Her book didn’t get much attention when it was first released. But after some predictions came true, more people started believing in her. She writes in a very simple and honest style, sharing her visions and dreams, which many find believable and not overly dramatic.
What is her July 2025 prediction?
In a new version of her book released in 2021, Tatsuki warned of a massive tsunami in July 2025. She says it could be three times bigger than the 2011 tsunami and may start due to an underwater rift between Japan and the Philippines. Her vision includes images of the ocean boiling and giant bubbles — possibly hinting at underwater volcanic eruptions.
The areas most at risk include Japan, Taiwan, the Philippines, and Indonesia, all located on the Pacific Ring of Fire — a place known for earthquakes and volcanoes. While scientists continue to monitor this region, there is no confirmed evidence that such a disaster will happen.
Why is Japan’s tourism industry worried?
Due to Tatsuki’s scary prediction, many travelers have become nervous. People who had planned trips to Japan in July 2025 are canceling their bookings, fearing for their safety. This is causing huge losses to Japan’s tourism industry. Travel agencies, airlines, and hotels are already seeing a drop in reservations and are preparing for even more losses if the panic grows.
How are people reacting?
People have mixed feelings. Some believe Tatsuki’s prediction because of her past accuracy, while others think it’s just a coincidence. Experts are telling people not to panic, saying that there’s no scientific proof that this disaster will happen. Still, social media is spreading the news fast, increasing fear and speculation.
Past predictions that came true
One of Tatsuki’s most famous predictions was the 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan, which killed over 18,000 people and caused the Fukushima nuclear disaster. Since that prediction was so accurate, many people are now taking her warnings more seriously.
Final Thought:
Whether you believe in predictions or not, it’s clear that Ryo Tatsuki’s prophecy has already created a big impact. While we can’t be sure if the disaster will actually happen, it’s always a good idea to stay informed, be cautious, and avoid unnecessary panic. After all, it’s better to be safe and prepared — just in case.
