Representative claims and their limits

Central claim

A dream described a major July 2025 catastrophe in the seas south of Japan.

02

The claim is checked against Asukashinsha · complete edition, not against a later summary.

03

Outcome test

The described giant event did not occur in July 2025, and the book did not specifically predict the Nankai Trough.

08 · WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED

Comparison with events

The described giant event did not occur in July 2025, and the book did not specifically predict the Nankai Trough.

09 · DISPUTES AND COUNTERARGUMENTS

Where interpretation changes

The main dispute concerns the distance between 1999–2025 and 1999 cover · 2011 rediscovery · 2021 expansion · 2025 result. Translation, selective quotation, changed definitions and hindsight can make a broad record appear more exact than it was. Competing readings are therefore preserved rather than silently merged.
