Tsunami Forecast Goes Viral: Japanese Oracle’s 2025 Prophecy Alarms Netizens
A cryptic prophecy from a self-proclaimed Japanese mystic, now dubbed the “Baba Vanga of Japan,” has sent waves of panic across the internet after a video of her tsunami prediction began circulating widely. The woman, believed to be in her late 80s, made a vague yet alarming statement about a catastrophic tsunami potentially striking sometime in July 2025.
Though she didn’t mention an exact date, her words — “Not the exact date, but a wave will come when the fire from the sea awakens” — have sparked concern, confusion, and viral speculation across social media platforms.
Clad in traditional attire and speaking in a calm yet ominous tone, the elderly prophet is seen warning of natural disasters connected to “the imbalance of the Earth and the anger of the oceans.” The video, reportedly recorded during a spiritual gathering earlier this year, gained rapid traction as July 2025 approached, with many interpreting her metaphorical statements as a warning of a tsunami.
Online users have dubbed her the “Japanese Baba Vanga,” comparing her to the famous Bulgarian mystic known for her alleged visions of world events. Her followers claim she has accurately predicted several local natural events in the past, lending credibility—at least in their eyes—to her latest prophecy.
The internet reaction has been intense. Hashtags like #Tsunami2025, #JapaneseProphet, and #BabaVangaOfJapan have trended globally, with thousands of users debating whether the prophecy is a genuine warning, a misinterpreted spiritual message, or pure coincidence. Some have posted historical data of past tsunamis, attempting to find patterns or links to previous predictions, while others have expressed anxiety about visiting coastal regions in the near future.

Despite the frenzy, scientific experts have cautioned against panic. Meteorologists and seismologists have reiterated that such predictions, especially those not based on measurable geological data, cannot be considered valid. However, they also acknowledge the emotional and psychological impact that viral predictions like this can have on the general public.
Skeptics argue that the prophet’s language is vague and open to interpretation, and that fear-mongering on the internet often leads to unnecessary chaos. Still, a portion of the online community appears gripped by the idea that the July 2025 prophecy could come true, fueling further speculation through amateur analysis, spiritual discussions, and even memes.
Meanwhile, local authorities in coastal areas of Japan and Southeast Asia have not issued any special alerts, maintaining that there are no indications of an imminent tsunami. However, some citizens, influenced by the viral prophecy, have reportedly started preparing emergency kits and reviewing evacuation routes—just in case.
