Japan's answer to the infamous Baba Vanga has revealed startling predictions for July 2025 — as if this year hasn't been chaotic enough already.
Ryo Tatsuki, an artist from Japan, has gained a following for sharing eerie predictions about the future and has been compared to Baba Vanga, one of the most well known fortune tellers.
The Japanese fortune teller says her predictions come to her in vivid dreams, with her premonitions beginning all the way back in the early 1980s.
She started out as a manga artist, but grew in notoriety as she recorded her dreams, which in hindsight people realised were mirroring disasters and events which were taking place in real life.

She published a manga called The Future I Saw in 1999 which was based on her dreams, and in recent times it has gained a new series of followers as people have compared what she wrote to events that went on to happen.
Tatsuki has now given an urgent warning for her country, including a mega tsunami she says will strike next month, claiming to see the ocean ‘boiling’ south of Japan.
Her followers are interpreting her dream as an undersea volcanic eruption would could be powerful enough to trigger a so-called 'mega tsunami'.

As if that isn't scary enough, she has predicted that the impact zone will be huge, covering a diamond shape over Japan, Taiwan, Indonesia, and the Northern Mariana Islands.
She has also referenced seeing 'dragon-like shapes' moving toward the area.
People who believe her predictions say that such pictures were also linked to visual patterns near Hawaii and other coasts, leaving many fearing the worst.
Experts are urging caution before interpreting such claims or causing panic.

Japan is geographically located in a region that is highly prone to earthquakes and volcanic activity - the country is positioned on the Pacific Ring of Fire and the Nankai Trough.
Though there is 'no scientific basis for Tatsuki's claims,' seismologists say 'the location she describes isn't far-fetched from a geological standpoint', Times Now World reports.
It is said that Tatsuki previously correctly predicted Freddie Mercury’s death in 1991, as well as a deadly Kobe earthquake in 1995, in addition to Japan’s catastrophic 2011 tsunami. She recorded all of these events before they happened after claiming to have seen them in her dreams.
