They can be sucked up by cyclones/ hurricanes and deposited far, far off, later.

Fish have rained down this way, before.

Tadpoles would have been able to come from much, much farther places...

I had an old Reader’s Digest book called “Mysteries of the Unexplained” that contained stories like this. Fascinating stuff!

OK, I admit it. This was a prank. I’m sorry for all the trouble.

Exactly! I was going to say watch out, all those tadpoles are probably tiny baby Godzillas. Weird stuff happens all over the place, but when it happens in Japan...it’s probably Godzillaesqe.

Isn’t a rain of toads a sign of the apocalypse?

Aren't tadpoles freshwater creatures? If so, they would have had to originate from some source other than the ocean - which greatly reduces the number of prospective sources.

I don't know. But if it is, what would this mean? We're ALMOST there?

There are saltwater frogs in S.E Asia. It’s the Monsoon / Cyclone season right there now.

S.E Asia isn’t that far off of Japan.

Try Charles Fort's "The Book of the Damned", Very historical account of weird stuff. It's probably where RD got most of their material.
