We can all agree that 2025 has been a tumultuous year so far, and now Japan's answer to Baba Vanga has made a horrifying prediction that worse is to come.
A Japanese woman who has become famous for eerily predicting the future has given a terrifying warning for her country.
Many have compared her to Baba Vanga, one of the most well known fortune tellers.
Ryo Tatsuki is predicting a mega tsunami, which she says will strike in July 2025.

The fortune teller says her predictions come to her in vivid dreams, and says she has been experiencing premonitions since the early 1980s.
She started her career as a manga artist in the public eye, but she grew in notoriety as she would record her dreams, which in hindsight people realised were mirroring disasters and events which were taking place in real life.
Back in 1999, she published a manga called The Future I Saw, 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.

She has now issued a concerning new warning, predicting the ocean 'boiling' south of Japan, which she says foretells of a disaster.
Many 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.
Not only that, but 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 however positioned on the Pacific Ring of Fire, and also has the Nankai Trough.

This is an area which scientists believe could produce a large earthquake and a tsunami in its wake.
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 before they happened, and said she saw them in her dreams.

It was also claimed that she predicted Covid-19, writing: "In 25 years, an unknown virus will come in 2020, will disappear after peaking in April, and appear again 10 years later."
Believers say she also predicted the death of Princess Diana, after writing 'Diana? Died?' in her diary on August 31, 1992, with the Princess tragically dying exactly five years later.
Many are hoping for Japan's sake that this prediction doesn't come true.
