Black Wave
Despite the devastation caused by the magnitude 9.0 earthquake and 60-foot tsunami that struck Japan in 2011, some 96% of those living and working in the most disaster-stricken region of Tōhoku made it through.

And why is it that some towns and cities in the Tōhoku region have built back more quickly than others?
