The 2011 Tsunami in JapanMost scientists reported that the 33ft (10m) Tsunami wave, triggered by a massive earthquake on March 11 measuring magnitude 9.0 on the Richter scale, made it 6 miles (10 kilometers) inland with washed up debris and water reaching distances of 10 miles or more inland.

Yes. To date, the worst natural disaster of the 21st century was the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, which killed over 230,000 people. The Japanese tsunamis of 2011 killed more than 15,000 people.
The damage due to buildings and infrastructure in the March 2011 earthquake, tsunami, and resulting fires and explosions is estimated over $180 billion or 3 percent of Japan's annual economic output.Other estimates up to US $300 billion for reconstruction excluding costs caused by the Fukushima nuclear accident but the total cost to Japan is probably much higher.
There were a number of earthquakes in Japan in 2012 ranging in magnitudes up to 7.3, but no deaths were reported. World-wide a total of 768 deaths from earthquakes in 2012 were recorded by the USGS Earthquake National Center and none of those from Japan. The last major earthquake from Japan was the magnitude 9.0 quake on March 11, 2011 that killed over 15,000 people in junction with the tsunami that it triggered.
