Original was an 8.9, followed by a 7.1, and two 6.4s one fairly close to Tokyo.

Anyone in Japan that needs anything, I live in the Kanto plain area, you're welcome to PM me your phone number so I can call to see if I can help with anything. I have a US phone line for anyone in the area that would like to call home as well.

Tsunami warning center is saying the original quake was 9.1 now apparently, hopefully these little aftershocks stop soon so people can at least get some rest.

Dude, Kanto was my favorite region with the best Pokemon. You should hook me up with a Charmander cuz they dont have them in Unova.
