In a startling revelation, Ryo Tatsuki, a celebrated Japanese comic artist and psychic, has predicted the emergence of a deadly virus in 2030, drawing chilling parallels to the COVID-19 pandemic. Often dubbed the “New Baba Vanga” due to her prophetic abilities, Tatsuki believes this future virus could lead to mass fatalities and global panic, sparking concerns across the world.
Tatsuki’s Track Record: From Princess Diana to COVID-19
Tatsuki rose to prominence for correctly predicting major events, including the deaths of Princess Diana and Freddie Mercury, the devastating 2011 Kobe earthquake, and even the COVID-19 outbreak. In her 1999 book The Future as I See It, she had foreseen an unknown virus peaking in April 2020, which many believe corresponds to the pandemic timeline. She also warned that a similar viral threat would return a decade later.
Earthquake Warning for Japan in July 2025
Beyond her virus prediction, Tatsuki has also prophesied a massive earthquake hitting Japan in July 2025. This prediction, now republished in the updated version of her book, is making waves across Asia, particularly in the tourism sector. Japan, known for frequent low-intensity quakes, witnessed catastrophic damage during the 2011 earthquake and tsunami, which Tatsuki had also forecasted.
Travel experts report rising fear among potential tourists. “We’ve seen a significant drop in Japan bookings during Easter,” said CN Yuen, managing director of Hong Kong-based WWPKG. “Further declines are expected due to viral warnings spreading across Thailand and Vietnam.”
Echoes of Baba Vanga: Another Prophet Reawakens Global Caution
Tatsuki’s predictive style is often compared to Baba Vanga, the blind Bulgarian mystic who made eerily accurate forecasts about global events, claiming a near 85% accuracy rate. As COVID-19 cases begin rising again in countries like India, Tatsuki’s new warning has ignited fresh debates about preparedness for future health crises.
Her predictions, though controversial, have pushed many to reflect on global readiness for upcoming challenges both natural and health-related.
