Are the Japanese Scared of the Upcoming Mega Earthquake? | Street Interview

[@kiryuchansboyfriend]

"Yes, I'm somewhat concerned but earthquakes are beyond my control so I try not to think about them too much." Legendary old guy.

[@Sayacalbees87]

Damn that girl was in kindergarten when that big earthquake hit. I was a 20 something I remember that earthquake real well.

[@alexishi2000]

That’s common idea among young and old Japanese citizen.this is not because he is old. We are living in volcano and plate island from we are born. I am experiencing more than 5 earthquakes a year since younger.

[@h.l7142]

@@mc1069 bro u don't know that. It's not because you are old that you WANT and GIVE UP on life !?? This old man way of thinking is on the contrary good to live on without fearing every second of your day !! Prepare what you can prepare for and the rest in on the hands of God. There are things beyond your control in life !!!

[@kathakailin]

I experienced an earthquake in a café in Tokyo back in 2015, people were so calm, the café staff were supporting the rocking shelves with their bodies and everyone stayed seated. My friend even correctly guessed the magnitude. If it was me alone I would've ran out in panic😂 the calm atmosphere really did have a big influence on my behaviour, which I think probably helps to take more thougtful actions.

[@LemonRectangle]

I remember my aunt and uncle just chilling in the kitchen and my cousins and I played games under the table 🤣 they were so casual about it

[@Notaytchannel-i4v]

Having a sound mind through chaos definitely makes you choose the most rational decisions. Idk how well I would Fare in that situation though 😅

[@Official-OpenAI]

Japanese here. I find it annoying how mainstream media is threatening the people almost every day about this. Every year we get earthquake psychics, fortune tellers, and conspiracy theorists tweeting or making youtube videos about mega earthquakes; it never happens, then they repeat the same thing the next year. This year is different, we're getting main stream news channels scaring everyone. Right now I can't buy rice because everyone's buying it all out. Like stop it please. I need my rice.

[@charlene6306]

I agree! I’m coming to visit Japan soon and all this doom and gloom talk is spoiling the fun of preparing for my visit. What happens happens. Oh, and may you find some rice soon🙏🏽

[@Mighty.Matcha.]

I think ppl should talk about how to prevent themselves from getting hurt from earthquakes by sharing what-to-do-in-a emergency infos rather than broadcasting off this events such as this, this actually helps to prepare ppl and lessens the panic of everyone. edit : it’s just a small typo and ppl are being mean for no reason 🙄

[@Official-OpenAI]

@@Mighty.Matcha. how to prevent earthquakes? lol

[@MrTobi013]

Other than the ones who are looking to make their fortune fearmongering, I genuinely think the Japaense media are scared too. Japan is their home too and yeah even they will come off as "only listen to us, we're the right ones". I hope you'll be okay.

[@musical.theory]

Well, the mega earthquake IS gonna happen though. It's the scientists that say so, not fortune tellers

[@landocal0]

How Japan deals with earthquakes is amazing! Some countries get hit by magnitude 7 earthquake and it shatters the whole country.

[@Ghost-pb4ts]

might be because thats common there probably a f5 tornado will finish em all while people survive that in bunker where that's common

[@verone272]

Their buildings are made with earthquakes in mind

[@piggy2023-sk3lq]

It's natural. It's called a give-up mind. Because Japan is overwhelmingly ahead in the possibility of a magnitude 7 event. On the other hand, in countries without earthquakes, even a magnitude 4 earthquake is a big deal.

[@Mizuyah]

Some countries unfortunately don’t have the money or resources 😢

[@era7928]

@@Mizuyah Building could be old and quake is very rare occurrence that did not happen in 1 human lifetime.

[@lalakuma9]

For context, they really do have tiny earthquakes like every other week. People definitely get used to it from sheer exposure. But emergency evacuation prep and having an emergency supply bag always ready to go are also very much a regular part of life, so people probably feel more prepared.

[@felipediazcristianismo]

We Chileans experience tremors magnitudes 4 to 7 every year, several times a year. It's kind of crazy we are so used to the earth moving a lot.

[@RWP98]

Experienced a few weeks ago the 5.3 off the shores of portugal, even tho small in magnitude, it was the biggest one i have ever felt and it scared the hell outta me feeling the things around me move in silence, i cant even comprehend what the 9.0 quake in 2011 was like, truly scary stuff

[@johnclark1146]

I was born and raised in California and it seems like the Japanese have the same attitude - you’re concerned somewhat but it’s something that you live with and in my case it wasn’t a everyday worry.

[@JustARandomGuy2354]

Old guy literally said the best thing you can say in a interview about earthquakes and he was right i liked his way of thinking honestly. "You cannot control the earthquake i do worry and concern but i try to not to think much about it."

[@jj22arc90]

I heard from let’s ask Shogo that there might be future important earthquakes that will probably happen in the next years or decades, in the Nankaidou region and possibly in the Tokyo area, and possibly the eruption of Mt Fuji… learning about all that really depressed me, natural disasters are unavoidable because of the complicated geography in Japan, but it really hurts to know that there might be a lot casualties and destruction in the foreseeable future for the Japanese people, and there’s not much we or they can do about it…

[@placefantasy1821]

I’m an English teacher in Japan and the person talking about working with kids is so real I do worry about being able to do everything to keep them safe and calm if the Nankai hits during my time in Japan. I’m well prepared but coming from a country that doesn’t have big earthquakes, typhoons, or tsunamis it does make me feel nervous about knowing what to do/not do. I live near the proposed epicentre but inland enough to not worry about a tsunami too much, I’m just worried about the building I am in collapsing and being trapped inside.

[@jajajaja2606]

I hope the mega earthquake won't happen, but need to notice that recently Ive learned that Japan's amazing traditional architecture was shaped by the recurring earthquakes. Idk why people nowadays don't build/decorate their homes in the traditional way, because it's really beautiful. What a gem you have ❤

根据地学专家说：近30年之内，日本很有可能发生超级地震。上次发生关东大地震整整有一百周年。当年死了成千上万的东京市民。我们日本人都要做好心理准备。有备无患。但是我认为战争比地震还要可怕。日本人对于朝鲜发射的导弹提心吊胆。朝鲜拥有核武器。金三胖气焰嚣张。日本近海危机四伏十分紧张。再加上日韩之间存在独岛问题有待解决。

2 Timothy 1:7 King James Version 7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Romans 10:9-10 King James Version 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Ephesians 2:8-9 King James Version 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. Romans 11:6 King James Version 6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work. John 6:37-40 King James Version 37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. 38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. 39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. 40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. John 10:27-30 King James Version 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. 30 I and my Father are one. Mark 4:35-41 King James Version 35 And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side. 36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships. 37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full. 38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish? 39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. 40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith? 41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him? John 14:6 King James Version 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

If Japanese citizens want to escape from their home country to dodge the upcoming worst disaster, can go to a few huge lands but less populated states like Canada, America, and Australia. Those nations don't have enough population compared to their ground size. On top of that, Japanese people are well-educated and good peaceful people who can follow a land's national law system. Moreover, Japan has lots of famous and valuable international corporations, thus, those employees can become precious workforces for those nations' economies, honestly. Supposing those states can accept those Japanese people, they would be excellent citizens who can develop diverse priceless social infrastructure. Particularly, Canada and the US must have a serious debate ASAP to solve this urgent problem since they are the best buddies of Japan. What are friends for?
