A female manga artist who has been dubbed Japan's answer to 'Baba Vanga' has made a scary prediction which is set to come into effect this summer, triggering mass panic among tourists who are scrambling to cancel their trips.
Ryo Tatsuki claims to have been successfully predicting the news of the world since the 1980s, with many of her 'prophecies' detailed in the 70-year-old's infamous book, The Future I Saw.
Having already believed to have predicted a string of horrible events, it’s only natural that many have begun to think she may be right about what is set to happen this year.
The artist claimed she saw visions of the ocean 'boiling' just south of Japan, which would cause a tsunami.
Because of this insight, some anxious travellers have decided to rethink their trip to the region, particularly since she predicted it will take place just 46 days from today.
Travel agencies saw huge drops in bookings around the date in question, reports The Times of India.
Apparently, it will happen in July, and will cause tsunamis between Japan and the Philippines three times bigger than the 2011 Tohoku disaster.
Having claimed something is 'boiling', it could point to underwater volcanic eruptions.
Of course, now she's got everyone panicking, people are wondering what else she has predicted in the past.
From celeb deaths to major outbreaks, here's everything Tatsuki has claimed to have accurately predicted.
Freddie Mercury's death
Her supposed first future-predicting dream came on 24 November, 1976, when she had a dream that Queen frontman Freddie Mercury would die suddenly.
At the time she didn't put much stock into her dream, but exactly 15 years later in 1991 he did die, and so her reputation as Japan's 'Baba Vanga' began.
The music icon passed away aged 45 after being diagnosed with bronchial pneumonia resulting from HIV/AIDs.
Princess Diana's death
In 1992, Tatsuki claimed she'd had a dream where she was in the corridor of a palace, and at the end of a corridor, there was a portrait of a blonde woman holding a baby, with the picture named 'Diana'.
The fortune teller claims that five years to the day she had that dream, Princess Diana died in that infamous car crash in Paris.
Apparently when she has a predictive dream, the result will come in an amount of time that can neatly be divided by five.

Kobe earthquake
While her previous predictions were measured in years, her next one was just about 15 days away.
In 1995, the artist said she'd dreamed that an old man took her to 'cracked earth', and after she woke up, Tatsuki wrote that the Japanese city of Kobe would be 'cracked' in either 15 days or 15 years.
15 days later, the devastating Kobe earthquake struck Japan, resulting in over 5,000 deaths and being Japan's second deadliest earthquake of the 20th century.
Japan's Tsunami
Publishing her manga The Future I Saw in 1999, she predicted that 'the great disaster will occur in March 2011'.
On 11 March, 2011, an undersea earthquake triggered a tsunami which ultimately resulted in 19,759 deaths, and given her prediction, it resulted in a surge of interest in her manga.
The coronavirus pandemic
Also on the list of things she's claimed to have correctly predicted is that terrible of things, the coronavirus pandemic.
Tatsuki is supposed to have written: "In 25 years, an unknown virus will come in 2020, will disappear after peaking in April, and appear again 10 years later."
So that means the coronavirus is going to come back again in a few years, if she's right.
But that would mean you put a lot of stock into claims of prophetic dreams, and if July comes and goes without the predicted massive tsunami, then she'll have got a big call wrong.
