I really really wish everyone in the subduction zone around the world has this. It is the best thing that Japan has developed in the past decades.

It could be the sort of aftershocks, but some seismologists speculate that the event (which is the part of an earthquake swarm) is the part of a M8-class slow slip event which also happened in the region in 1992. The area is historically very active.
