After the film “ Suzume
no Tojimari ” by director Makoto Shinkai was
broadcast for the first time on television in Japan, earthquakes have been
recorded in two Japanese cities that the protagonist visits within the story of
the film . The plot of this 2022 Japanese animated film, written and directed
by Makoto Shinkai, follows Suzume Iwato, a 17-year-old high school student, and
an unknown young man named Souta Munakata, who team up to prevent a series of
disasters across Japan. by sealing doors from a colossal, supernatural worm
that causes earthquakes after being released.
The movie “Suzume” aired for the first time on April 5 on
television in Japan. While the movie aired without a hitch, a strange event
occurred right afterward. Two cities that the protagonist visited were hit by
earthquakes. A Twitter user posted two images of earthquake epicentral
maps and pointed out how Suzume had traveled to the same two cities, in that
order.
Again, this is mere coincidence, and the user even
apologized to fans if it caused them any discomfort. If the movie is
predicting where the next strong earthquake in Japan will be, then it would be
in the city of Kobe. Fortunately, almost a month has passed since the film's
television premiere and it did not happen.
- « I
also love “Suzume no Tojimari”, and I just thought it was a great
coincidence that I published it, and I have no other intention. I
apologize if anyone found it offensive. It's just that it's a very good
movie and I hope many people see it », She wrote.
This unusual event has generated speculation and comments
among viewers and fans of the film. Some wonder if the plot of “Suzume
no Tojimari” could have some supernatural connection to real-world events,
while others consider it to be simply a coincidence. So far, there is
no scientific evidence to support the idea that the film can predict
earthquakes or natural events.
Earthquakes are a common natural phenomenon in
Japan due to its geographic location on the Pacific Ring of Fire. However,
the coincidence between the earthquakes and the plot of the film has generated
an interesting debate on social networks and among viewers.
