During the 2011 tsunami, Sendai received a warning time of approximately 30 minutes after the earthquake struck. The Japan Meteorological Agency issued a tsunami warning shortly after the quake, which allowed some residents to evacuate to higher ground before the waves hit. However, this time was not sufficient for many to evacuate effectively, resulting in significant devastation and loss of life.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center estimated first arrival around 7 1/2 hours after the quake, or around 3:15am HST.
Ten to fifteen minutes, depending on where on the coast you are standing.
The tsunami hit Sendai approximately 30 minutes after the earthquake struck off the coast of Japan on March 11, 2011.
No. It is only one of many times that an earthquake and tsunami have hit Japan. Earthquakes in subduction zones such as the one of the coast of Japan often trigger tsunamis. The March 2011 earthquake, at magnitude 9.0, was the strongest on record in Japan though.

it took so long because there were no tsunami centers in the region and it was too late after all even if they did. Also when they got the warning in the pacific ocean they only warned the countries that border it
The term "tsunami" originated from Japan because the country has a long history of experiencing these destructive ocean waves due to its location on the Pacific Ring of Fire. The word is commonly used in English because Japan has also been a pioneer in tsunami research and warning systems. Its adoption reflects the global recognition of Japan's expertise in handling tsunamis.
