According to the Japan Meteorological Agency on January 1, a 7.4-magnitude earthquake occurred on the Noto Peninsula in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan, on the same day, and the earthquake triggered a 5-meter tsunami.

Xiaodong (pseudonym), a Chinese student in Japan, is located in Toyama Prefecture, only about 90 kilometers away from Ishikawa Prefecture, the epicenter of the earthquake. "The phone first alerted me to the earthquake, and then I felt like the ground was shaking. Recalling the scene when the earthquake occurred, Xiaodong still has palpitations, "The crows in the sky are flying all over the sky under black pressure." The fence of the house next to me collapsed 'unexpectedly', and it was the first time that I felt that the earthquake was so close to me...... It wasn't until I got to the open space that I found a place to sit down. According to previous reports, on January 1, Japan experienced three earthquakes of magnitude 5 or higher. Videos taken by local people show the same scene of crows flying all over the sky before the earthquake.

"Hokkaido's side was 'spared'. Xiao Man (pseudonym), a Chinese student in Japan, said that the earthquake occurred in the Kansai region of Japan, which is far away from Hokkaido, and she did not feel the impact of the earthquake.

According to the Japan Broadcasting Association (NHK), as of 19:09 on January 1, Toyama Prefecture reported more than 100 cases of damage to houses, and the number of casualties could not be counted. Niigata Prefecture reported 2 injuries and Fukui Prefecture reported 5 injuries.

According to the "Tsunami Warning" issued by the Japan Meteorological Agency, tsunami waves are expected to be 5 meters high in some areas of Ishikawa Prefecture and 3 meters high in parts of Niigata, Toyama, Yamagata, Fukui, and Hyogo prefectures. It is reported that this is also the first time that the Japan Meteorological Agency has issued a "large tsunami warning" after the Great East Japan Earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011.

According to Japanese media reports, the strongest seismic intensity of this earthquake is 7.4, and it is also the first time since June 2018 that Japan has experienced the highest seismic intensity. In addition, several Chinese consulates have reminded Chinese citizens to strengthen their preparedness for earthquake disasters.
