Time has passed since the Great East Japan Earthquake, and we created this website with the hope of preserving the memory of that day. The tsunami footage from that time is a lesson we must never forget. By organizing these valuable videos from YouTube on a map, we aim to help people visually understand the scale of the tsunami's threat and the extent of the damage. We hope this site will serve as a tool to raise disaster preparedness awareness for future generations.
